Dawn Club

What you need to know

What to Expect

This is a small, dim, quiet cocktail bar. The drink list mixes classic cocktails with seasonal house creations using fresh ingredients and quality spirits. The bartenders know what they are doing and can riff on your preferences if you are not sure what to order.

The vibe is conversational. No DJ, no loud music, no scene. It is the kind of place where two people can sit at the bar and actually hear each other talk. The room fills up on weekend evenings but rarely feels chaotic.

Visiting

Address: Annie Street, SoMa (below street level)
Hours: Evenings, typically Tuesday through Saturday
Cost: Cocktails $15 to $18. No cover.
Tips: Look for the stairs down. The entrance is not prominently marked. Arrive early on weekends for a seat at the bar.

Getting There

Montgomery and Powell BART stations are both within a five minute walk. Muni lines along Market Street drop you nearby. Street parking in this part of SoMa is metered and limited. Rideshare or transit is easier.

Skip this if you want a lively nightlife scene or a place to dance. This is a quiet bar for drinking well made cocktails.
