Barbarossa is a cocktail-driven bar and lounge in North Beach, breathing new life into the historic location at 714 Montgomery Street. As one of the oldest buildings in San Francisco, having survived the famous 1906 earthquake, Barbarossa will showcase an entirely new concept--one that is full with legend and mystery as the space was used as a jailhouse in the 19th century. Most recently serving the neighborhood as the former Bubble Lounge, Barbarossa is where Barbary Coast atmosphere meets modern luxury, while maintaining relevancy to present San Francisco drinking culture. Barbarossa's beverage program includes a seasonally rotating 11-cocktail menu with drinks that are named after famous criminals, madams, dance hall girls and politicians of the time. The beverage menu is made complete with signature grog. Our daily happy program offers special deals on craft cocktails, beers and wines. Barbarossa is also an ideal place for small or large group celebrations specially on the weekends with music and entertainment.

I went to Barbarossa for my 25th birthday and I will definitely be going back! Barbarossa has a friendly atmosphere to hangout with friends in an intimate setting but also turns into a club at night!
We went around 9 pm to grab a couple round of drinks and then food! I highly recommend getting the Red Cloud, which was tequila, mezcal, pamplemouse blood orange-jalapeno. It was delicious absolutely delicious but I will give the disclaimer that I am a tequila girl.
The reason that I took off one star because the food was very confusing to order. I recommend reorienting the food menu. We ordered a charcuterie board. It was very odd because it did not come with the typical traditional charcuterie. It only came with meat so we quickly figured out that you had to order everything separately. We ordered the cheese and sausages separately, which caused us to get large amount of bread every order. I feel like this could have been done different to prevent waste.
If you are coming here to club, Barbarossa really picks up at around 10:30-11ish!Helpful 2Thanks 1Love this 3Oh no 0Business owner information

First of all the inside is SO cute and has the best ambiance, great for aesthetic pictures!! It has a bondage theme which was so dope
The drinks are super yummy too
The staff is sooo friendly, my friends and I were talking and a gentleman came up to us and let us know we were able to sit anywhere we'd like :)

Guys, don't skip out on this place. If you want a club vibe, go on a weekend late at night. If you just want a nice vintage cocktail bar vibe then go when they open at 5 pm on a weekday. The bartender was very friendly and even asked my friend out. That's not my scene so I was a bit annoyed but she didn't seem to mind. I had one of their known cocktails which was good. I loved everything they made behind the bar. They had an oyster special going on but we just had cocktails. I'd definitely be back.

Was here for a friend's party and I thought Barbarossa lounge did an excellent job catering. There were a variety of meat & vegetarian options:
deviled eggs, beets, a cheese plate, a charcuterie plate, two types of sliders (mushroom & pork) with carmelized onions & gruyere, guacamole on toast and bacon wrapped shrimp.
All the food was beautifully presented. In particular, I thought the bacon wrapped shrimp were exceptionally good, with very crisp bacon.Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0Business owner information

Barbarossa is always a good time! The interior is cute, the crowd is good, and the music is usually great (top 40 and a mix of older jams you'd love).
I had to subtract one star because of the mean, angry bartender, David. After buying a round of shots, he didn't give us any chaser. I went back for regular soda waters and coke. He angrily demanded my card. Confused, I just handed it over.
He charged us $13! The receipt said bottled sparkling water. Bro, we each got like 4 sips of soda water in those small cups full of ice. He also never gave us the Coke back.
After paying, I asked where the Coke back was. He got angry, grabbed the receipt inside, saw that I had indeed tipped ON TOP for $17.xx of soda water on tap (mind you he also got a nice tip for the shots right beforehand), then reluctantly gave us ONE Coke back for the 3 shots we got.
David, don't work in the service industry if you hate people.
That being said, all the other staff was delightful! Super awesome and pleasant. If I ever come back, I'll be sure to avoid David.Helpful 4Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0Business owner information

Tacky. Weird service. Got offered popcorn when we sat down as if it were complimentary, it wasn't. It also had truffle jnfused butter, which should be told to the customer since not everyone likes truffle... except then ppl may start to catch it's not free and you could no longer rip them off.

Who said a cocktail w a side of S&M don't go together?
This north beach staple definitely is a vibe, and delivers Classy old school feels w/ skillfully made cocktails and a small bites menu. You can reserve a couch space with rolling through with your gang, or more intimate tables if trying to impress your date. Come here even without a rezy! Best time would be before 10pm - as you'll be charged a cover after.
Make sure to ask what's behind the upstairs curtained section, as well as the more 'private' rooms downstairs. I was there too early, but I have a feeling that you may be in for a 'show' of some sorts. Be ready for a whip. CheersHelpful 2Thanks 0Love this 2Oh no 1Business owner information
