The Final Final

Great bar to unwind after sightseeing the Golden Gate bridge

Came here to watch one of the Warriors games. Was helped at the bar with haste, which was appreciated considering the busy times. But the bartender with the faux-​hawk and dark rimmed glasses was very disagreeable with me. He snakily criticized me for wanting to close out my tab right away and then had some computer troubles when printing my bill which caused me to wait a while. When I was about to inquire with another bartender what was going on and then realized that there was probably a computer/​printing issue I told him with a smile, «never mind.» Faux-​hawk came up and snapped at me (again) for «complaining» to another bartender when I never even had a change to ask my question. He was assumptive and extremely rude to me for absolutely no reason. I was beside myself. Working in the food and beverage industry for many years I would have NEVER EVER treated a customer this way. Furthermore, the manager didn’t do enough to smooth this over. He listened to the story and did not even offer to take care of the two beers. After the game he then thanked us for staying to watch and said that he wasn’t going to talk to he employee right away because the Warriors had won and he didn’t want to ‘kill’ the mood. Why would you say this to an upset customer? Had it not been for this particular bartender, I would have had a fine time watching the game and would have ordered from the mother who was friendly and working hard and fast to make sure that everyone had what they needed.

If you’re a fan of great sports bars that have history screaming from the walls, The Final Final is your stop. Situated in an area of Cow Hollow/​Marina that’s not as easily accessible to the BROS, it always has a good crowd. I suppose it helps that I live two blocks from this bar too… it’s my local watering hole.
I’m a huge fan of places with free popcorn and the machine in the back of the bar is always full :) They have two pool tables, a few dart boards and tons of TV’s. Note: the pool tables are usually shut down during big game days and the evenings for sake of space.
I think more that anything it’s important to have a local sports bar that is casual and easy. A place where you can wear your favorite jersey, head to after your co-​ed softball league, etc.
Family owned & operated. Ben approved.

Solid neighborhood sports bar. Even though it’s not located on Chestnut Street, it’s still very much a Marina bar. You’ll find plenty of «bros» still trying to hold on to their college days, as well as attractive 20-​something girls (who are pretending to like sports to impress the dudes).
Final Final ain’t fancy. Nor is it trying to be. They serve reasonably priced beer and hard liquor, and they have plenty of TV screens for watching what ever game happens to be playing. They also have pool tables in the back, and plenty of room and tables for boozin’ and schmoozin’. There’s no pretense here. What you see is what you get.
This bar is a great way to start your evening (before heading elsewhere) or finish your night (once the house party keg has been tapped).
Be warned, if you’re over 35, you might be the oldest person in the room. But all in all, this is a cool spot and a Marina institution.

If you don’t like this place, get out. Matrix or Tipsy Pig will gladly accept you, you can join their scene down the street. This is a neighborhood favorite, that carries a lot of memories for all. The bartenders treat you like a regular, even if you only go in once in a while. There is plenty of space, multiple activities, and plenty of sports broadcast, all topped off with timely service.

Un sports bar super sympa et pas compliqué, idéal pour une bonne fiesta mais aussi pour discuter tout simplement avec les locaux ! mettez vous au bar, commandez une Coors ou une Bud (Blue Moon ou craft beer IPA si vous voulez vous couchez une heure après…) et tapez la discute ! La machine à pop corn n’est pas loin afin de vous faire durer ! enjoy !

Awesome bartenders, dollar tree ass ranch dressing. Mike was my bartender. He was superb until he brought me my wings lol. Mike didn’t know I was a ranch snob, but he learned that today. He tried to pass off this sham of a dressing as Hidden Valley. When it was really some dollar tree ish. I’d rather he punch me in the nose, then to be served dollar tree ranch! My people have come too far to be served dollar tree ranch! As much money as I spend there, they can invest in better ranch. Let’s not talk about the ketchup. If it ain’t Heinz it ain’t right. Get it together Final Final lol! No seriously, get better ranch or I will rain down on your business like a Georgia thunderstorm.

Wow. I know the city is getting expensive but really? $ 13.50 for a pint of Lil Sumpin and a pint of 21^st Ammendment Watermelon wheat? And on a Sunday afternoon no less. As a local, I can’t wait for Liverpool Lil’s to reopen!

Darts, pool, cheap beer, pizza and TVs.
There isn’t much more that you need to make a great bar!
The Final Final always ends up being involved on our night out rotation and never disappoints!
The bar does full up rather quickly when there is a major sporting event but not so bad that you won’t be able to stand comfortably.

Not full of frat boys looking to fight you, so its got that going for it.
If it wasn’t stationed in the Marina, it would probably grow a bit more divey, which, would be an improvement.
As it is, popcorn machine, standard fare of alcohol, barely tolerable level of douchinista, it’s a meh. It’s a C. As Unilocal so eloquently puts it, this place is «A-​OK».

Reliable post-​Palace of Fine Arts jaunt.

It does the job you want it to! Get drunk on the cheap! They’ve got a pretty decent selection of beer on tap (so glad they have one of my favorites, Allagash White) and solid liquor available. Grab some popcorn from the back and pull up a chair with the homies and start throwing them back! Lots of locals and people who work in the area frequent this spot, but there’s plenty of room inside. There’s a pool table and TVs all around so you can watch whatever you need to, as long as it’s the Warriors, Giants, or Niners!

The Final Final is a great, family run establishment and I enjoy going there as much as I can. The patrons are great and always good for some laughs. Great place to watch the Giants, Warriors and Sharks! Free popcorn is cool but cold beer is even better. I like The Final Final because it is slightly off the beaten path in a quiet neighborhood but it isn’t too far from the action on Chestnut Street in the Marina. If you’re looking for a good time with good people, check it out!

Great bar! Family owned and ran. Great people and good atmosphere. Plenty of TVs for game day. Always free popcorn and lots of beers on tap. Always a good time!

Good, solid, neighborhood bar. This is, as the name would imply, a great place to end the night. I have many fond memories of playing darts here at 1am wearing a gown from an earlier event that evening.

A couple months ago, after a run, I decided to pop into The Final Final for a rest. The man behind the bar was very kind and attentive – best customer service I’ve received in months. The feel of this bar along with Bruce Springsteen music in the background, is if you didn’t know better – you’d think you were in a bar back in Allentown.

Went here to watch the vikings game this morning and it had a perfect blend of almost every fan base. Drinks came quick and were fair priced. Best thing is is they serve Papa Murphy’s pizza. I will be back next Sunday.

Came here for Sunday Funday — this is coming from the queen of dive bars — this place rocks!!! I love the ambiance and the fact that the beer is cold and the service is quick — will be back !!!

Love finding Husker bars across America a. Even better when owned and operated by a true Husker! Felt at home.

Free popcorn.
$ 11 pizzas.
Bourbon/​peach/​pineapple drinks.
Great service from the bartender Tim.
Juke box with songs that take ya way back.
6 cocktails and a pizza for $ 38 +tip!!!
Amazing

Final Final is right by my office and while it definitely is not in the same grouping as all the boutique bars around SF, I have kind of a soft spot for dive-​y bars. The drinks aren’t terrible, they rarely get crowded, and the bar itself is not at all pretentious like all the speakeasy-​type bars around.
The service is nothing to write home about but I definitely did not have a bad experience and in my book that’s already ahead of the curve.
I’ll likely be back at least a good many times more.

Liked this place a lot until yesterday. They have free popcorn, a wide selection of beers on tap, and lots of TVs to catch your favorite game.
They also have a really rude staffer.
We were there for the 49ers playoff game, and 5 minutes after the end of the game, he came by to collect our pitchers. The problem is, there was still beer in them. Now, if he’d said anything at all, like «hey, I need to get these in the dishwasher, can I pour your beer in a glass for you?» this would be a 4 or 5 star review. Instead, he said nothing and tried to take our beer. When we told him we weren’t done with the pitchers, he said «Yes you are,» and kept trying to take them. Finally, he slammed them down and yelled «then you’d better pour them into a glass right now, because I’m taking these pitchers!»
Look, if you need to clean up after the game, that’s great. But why treat your customers with a total lack of respect? It makes no sense.

After Brunch we decided to walk around town and then wanted to watch Football and have a couple drinks. We found this place on Unilocal and boy was it a great place. Well at first the Bartender was nice but not super friendly but as we sat there he became super friendly and we had a great time. HE finally was engaging and made this first here awesome. will be back soon. great place.
Try the Loopy Vodka… Ask Mike he will make you some good drinks.

I went here after having my birthday party at House of Air. We ordered the Papa John’s pizza and it was piping hot. Someone else ordered chicken wings and thoroughly enjoyed them. They have 2 pool tables. I like the layout of the U-​shaped bar and there seems to be plenty of space. And yes, the free popcorn was a nice touch.
The door in the back says Pool and Spa, employees only. I don’t know if this was a joke or if there really is a spa back there. I was intrigued. LOL.
