ABOUT

620 Jones

Welcome to 620 Jones, San Francisco’s largest outdoor bar and restaurant, and your new favorite urban oasis.

We officially opened for business on Valentine’s Day, 2011 and have established ourselves as a mainstay of the Theater District, TL, and Nob Hill neighborhoods over the last decade.

With three beautiful bars, a lush, 8,000 square ft. rooftop patio, and ample space for events, we are a bit of a jack of all trades, and one truly unforgettable destination.

Inspired by the buildings of the 1915 Panama-California Exposition in San Diego, prolific architect H.C. Baumann designed the Gaylord Hotel in the Spanish Colonial Revival style. To bring elements of our historic building’s architecture into our space, founder Pete Glikshtern worked with architect Kyle Reicher of Ferrous Studios Inc., to re- interpret the iconic wrought iron grilles from the Gaylord’s lobby. From the huge front gates that welcome guests in, to the patio guard rails, to the ornate metal wall between the stairs and the dining room, our steel is an homage to the rich architectural history of our building.

Our patio

At the heart of our space, is our sprawling, lush rooftop patio, a welcome escape, and a space that breathes comfort, and relaxation.

Our six giant, custom planters are brimming with vibrant foliage, reflective of our Mediterranean/California-Coastal climate, including Arbutus Marina trees, Chamaerops Humilis (Mediterranean fan palm trees), Dracena Draco, Bromeliads and Passion Flower Vines (red flowers). It is really unusual to have so many large plants together in such an urban setting. Entering 620 Jones is like entering another world, as you pass through the huge, iron entrance gates.

Join us, and experience San Francisco’s favorite urban oasis for yourself. Unwind among the lush, shady foliage with one of our specialty crafted cocktails in hand, and always keep an eye out for some of our favorite neighbors! Our patio is home to a plethora of nature, including an abundance of hummingbirds — hence our new logo!
