Blackthorn Tavern
Blackthorn in the Inner Sunset is a sports bar that’s also kind of sexy. Yes, there are lots of TVs, but also dark red walls, candles on every table, and a disco ball that gives off a multi-colored glow on DJ nights. It’s not only a great place to watch sports but also a fantastic casual date spot, especially if pool or Monday night trivia is your love language. This place also has a solid beer list and a cozy little patio in back.
