Marina District Bars and Clubs

Pull out the Lacoste polo shirt and black card; money and status ooze out of the Marina District. The main drag is Chestnut Street, a strip so clean and cute, it doesn't feel like San Francisco. Lining the streets are a variety of trendy restaurants and bars, filled with young money and hip families. Nightfall brings some of the cities best looking yuppies and some of the cities biggest wallets to bars like Gravity for dancing and mingling. Possibly one of the few places in San Francisco that is virtually bum-free, the landfill base that the Marina is built on may not last forever, but it sure makes a good stomping ground for all those Jimmy Choo heels.

Eastside West

3154 Fillmore (at Greenwich), San Francisco CA; Tel. 415.885.4000
A lively bar and restaurant combo, Eastside West serves small portions of flavorful bar food and caters as much to the pre-party crowd headed to the nearby Gravity as for patrons spending long hours with large groups of Marina partiers.

Gravity

3251 Scott St., San Francisco CA; Tel. 415.776.1928
Gravity-goers anticipate the singles vibe inside while waiting in long lines for the chance at a stiff cocktail served by the good-looking bar and cocktail staff, as much as for the velvet-lined walls and coaches packed with party-going twenty-somethings. Ambient beats from rotating DJs set the mood.

HiFi Lounge

2125 Lombard (at Fillmore), San Francisco CA; Tel. 415.345.8663
A Marina bar for drinking and dancing patronized by a party-happy set of Marina types. A classy atmosphere and a meat-market vibe keep things interesting.
