The Pocket

A corner bar in the Pleasure Point neighborhood; recently they have been hosting blues, folk and Americana bands. Compared to the other dives in the area (Castaways, Over the Hill Gang), they have a decent selection of beers on tap and spirits on the shelves. The staff is friendly and the atmosphere is extremely relaxed.

The ceiling has a home-made leopard print pattern and there are many portraits of Our Lady of Guadalupe. There is also a pinata Jesus Christ with red streamers coming from His Wounds. Weird.

Jerry just added Jam seesions on Thursday night. I went last night and it was terrific!
Some of the finest local talent I have heard. The dance floor was rocking. The second pool table has been removed to make space for dancing and a table for drinks. There is a new raised band stand as well. Great additions! Go on Thursday and check it out. Starts at 7:30. If you are hungry the neighborhood chinese restaurant Guang Zho next door is tasty and reasonably priced. I loved the Sam Sam seafood soup and Chicken in black bean sauce i had before the Jam!

One of the best bars not in San Francisco , love this place and the guys that hang out there and the women that work there.
