Moby Dick

Mobys is a great pub with a pool table ($2 bucks) and a very comfortable setting. The barkeep was personable and helpful. The bloody, great saltwater aquarium is a relaxing attraction. Friendly patrons to us two tourists.

Great space for happy hour drinks. It’s fun & chill - the bartender was great & so friendly. Happy hour is such a steal.

Super cool peeps… good pool table and 3 working pinball machines … what more could a boy want?!?

For some reason the bouncer late at night always comes for me. Last night I was not let in with my friends even though none of us were drunk. He just said “Sorry, not tonight”. We just wanted to play pinball, which we always do at Moby Dick. I’m not sure if you he thinks I’m drunk because of my limp or whatever, but I don’t get why he always targets me when we go to Moby Dick.

What a nice place to hangout with friends! It's such a easy going bar - the bar keeper was under the pump though, he was BUSY! The place is awesome and their happy hour drinks are amazing value!

Lovely, historic gay bar. First place I had a bay breeze. Shoutout to Patrick.

Visiting. I got refused service at the bar because my ID was damaged. it's a french ID and yes the corners were a bit damaged since I'm 35yo and this was issued more than 10years ago. But there is absolutely no issue in verifying that the ID is good and the DOB is clearly readable. I even offered to show a picture of my passport on my phone. Anyways I went next door to Midnight Sun and there was no issue as well with other bars in Castro. Don't go complaining people don't support gay bar when you literally refuse service for stupid reasons. Bye.

I came here earlier this week with my boyfriend. Drinks were decent (by gay bar standards) and the ambiance was good. I thought the service was great until the bartender requested to close our tab early after a single round without offering us another order—effectively asking us to leave. We were a reasonably well-dressed, quiet gay couple and it was a slow, early tuesday evening. Why give us the boot? Extremely alienating.
