Mr. Digby's

The food at this tavern-like Noe Valley restaurant and cocktail bar is the equivalent of finding a $20 bill in your pocket: comforting, and has the ability to alter the course of your day. This place goes classic American comfort, with blue cheese-drenched wedge salads, chicken pot pies, meatloaf, and hot sourdough stuffed with a spinach-forward spinach dip. It’s all very hearty and warming—all that’s missing is a fireplace. Expect to see couples on dates, the after-work bar crowd drinking classic cocktails, and families with expensive strollers.
