Rikki's Bar

Rikki’s is San Francisco’s first-ever sports bar dedicated to LGBTQ+ women and allies—and it’s already serving up wins on and off the field.

Located in the Mission District, Rikki’s is the kind of place where you can cheer for the WNBA, sip a craft beer, talk sh*t about bad calls, and meet fellow queer sports fans in a space designed just for you.

From Giants games to Gotham FC, this place broadcasts it all—and yes, they’ll actually turn the sound on for women’s games. Revolutionary, right?

What to Expect

  • A laid-back, welcoming vibe with a strong community feel. Think cozy booths, flat-screens on every wall, and a crowd that’s equally excited about touchdowns and tequila shots.
  • A rotating menu of bar bites and shareables, plus a solid lineup of beers, wines, and cocktails (yes, there’s a spicy margarita, don’t worry).
  • Regularly hosted events, watch parties, queer trivia nights, and community fundraisers. It’s a space where sports and social justice live side by side—and maybe you’ll find your next date while bonding over bracket picks.

When to Go

  • Weekday evenings (especially during live games) bring in an enthusiastic, sports-loving after-work crowd.
  • Weekends are the real MVPs—Saturdays and Sundays from 12 pm onward are prime time for brunch-watch parties, casual hangs, and high-energy times during game days.
  • Special event nights and playoffs (especially WNBA/NWSL games) draw a packed, excited crowd—so come early and ready to cheer.

The Crowd

Queer women, non-binary babes, masc cuties, and sports-loving femmes—you’ll find them all here. Whether you're die-hard for the Aces or you just came for the cocktails and camaraderie, Rikki’s is a rare gem that makes everyone feel like part of the team.

Pro Tips

  • Follow Rikki’s on Instagram for weekly event updates—including themed nights, live DJ sets, and local pop-ups.
  • It’s super accessible by BART and Muni, with plenty of Mission hotspots nearby if you want to keep the night going.
  • Looking for a new queer crew? Rikki’s regularly partners with LGBTQ+ rec leagues and orgs—so it’s a great place to connect both socially and athletically.
