Venue Bio

Located just steps from Ocean Beach, The Riptide is a beloved Outer Sunset neighborhood bar.  It has a rich history dating back to 1941, when the building first opened its doors as a seaside tavern.  Today, it blends that legacy with a lively, welcoming atmosphere and roaring fireplace.  Featuring a full calendar of live entertainment, The Riptide hosts bands, DJs, and karaoke nights that keep the room buzzing late into the evening.  Never a cover charge and open 365 days a year, The Riptide remains a go-to spot for locals and visitors looking to experience San Francisco's laid-back, beachside spirit.
