Press Club
San Francisco, California
Given its proximity to a great many vineyards, it's unsurprising that the Bay Area is home to quite a few wine bars — and the Press Club is among the best. Located at the foot of the Four Seasons, this classy affair is just two blocks from both Union Square and Moscone, making it a perfect retreat from the crushing conference crowds — WWDC, anyone? Now open seven days a week, it offers a great variety of wines and craft beers, as well as small plates like Dungeness Crab Balls infused with Local Citrus and larger portions like Roasted California Quail — all with suggested wine pairings that perfectly complement the dishes, and plenty of comfy seating that's perfect for conversation.
