***Best Jazz Club in the City, by San Francisco Magazine***
Mr. Tipple’s is a craft cocktail bar featuring live jazz.
-
Reservations have a 90min time limit from reservation time.
There is a $20/guest min for table service
Mr. Tipple’s heralds back to a 1950s NYC basement. Cozy. Dark. Boozy. The intimate setting features local jazz artists up close and personal. It’s a joint where you come as you are, hear great music, tap your toes, and sip a properly chilled cocktail.
-
My name is Mr. Tipple. Just a simple and laughable bloke hailing from London. I run a recording studio. My friends joke that you’ll oft find me spinning cocktails, not reeling tape. After a few too many, I usually just sit back and enjoy the music, having forgotten to hit record. Regardless, the band is always jiving, the whiskey is always cold, and we’re having a smashing good time.

Loved our two experiences here - great atmosphere, wonderful musicians and a very cool feel. Buy preferred seating to see and hear the musicians close up or enjoy the Opium Bar in the back for a snuggly feel. Dim sum is excellent and Asian inspired mains are done with care. (Could use some dipping sauces on the side, but overall good food as well as a lovely night out.) Will be back soon! Thank you.

Great place to hear jazz live and upfront. The real deal. A bit expensive and the food is quite limited but, overall a really fun experience.
