Foley's is a typical Irish-style bar of the type catering mainly to tourists. Draft beers consisted of about a dozen taps pouring Guinness, Bass, etc. A highlight was Chimay red on draft, served in proper Chimay glasswear. Food was typical pub fare, good for the price. A jazz band was playing the evening we visited and was top-notch. I was with a group of nine people but our server was friendly and efficient considering the size of the crowd she was working. If you're staying in the Union Square area consider hitting this place during your stay. A better choice than nearby Lefty O'Doul's.

I've been to this establishment three times because it is so close to many of the Union Square hotels. In fact, their location is their strongest suit.
The beer selection is your average American Irish pub. They no longer have Tetley's (West Coast distribution issues) nor have I ever seen Caffrey's.
Food is fair at best. The Shephard's Pie is extremely bland. The Fish and Chips are average at best. Service, while not indifferent, can be slow at times.

What a fabu establishment! I've never been to Ireland, but if this is what their pubs are like, I'm bookin' my flight! Until I get to Ireland, Johnny Foley's IS the best! The ambiance was awesome, the service awemsome, the food excellent and the suggested beers were excellent! A most memorable time - A great respite in SF to grab a pint! I highly recommend it!

Couldn't remember where Foley's was located from our trip the year before. Stumbled around for a while but it was well worth the effort. A true Irish pub where you'll always find a conversation and a good pint. Really enjoyed the Caffrey's which you don't see much of in the States. The food is very good from the soups through the desserts. If you like Irish pubs this one is really worth looking up. Whenever I get to SF again, Foley's is sure to be a stop.

Wonderful Irish pub in San Francisco. Set up to look authentic. Outstanding food and beer selection. While visiting for one week in SF, we went here on four occasions.
