Bernal Heights & La Lengua
Holy Water
Holy Water opened its doors two years ago in what was before a delicious beverage vacuum. While there were definitely some solid places to get a cocktail in La Lengua, if you wanted something tasty up the hill, you were out of luck. With well selected rotating beers on tap and a cocktail list of about 15 lovely drinks, this is both a destination spot for SF as a whole, and a local favorite. Every nook and cranny of Holy Water has been carefully considered and designed. Antique decanter chandeliers hang down from angry cloud ceiling wallpaper, and a giant photo on the wall of a river baptism makes you feel slightly guilty (although you can’t pinpoint exactly why). Wait is that just me? mmmm, never mind. The point is, Holy Water is a great spot to begin or end your night.
