Luminara
Alcohol-removed wines made from Napa Valley fruit — a Chardonnay and a Red Blend aimed squarely at wine drinkers who want the real thing minus the alcohol.

Luminara makes alcohol-removed wine from Napa Valley grapes — a deliberate bet that starting with premium fruit is what separates convincing NA wine from grape juice in a wine bottle. The wines are fully fermented, then the alcohol is removed to below 0.5% ABV while the varietal aromatics are preserved.
The lineup is small and vinous: a Napa Valley Chardonnay and a Napa Valley Red Blend, both positioned for the dinner-table use case where a wine drinker wants a genuine pour rather than a soft drink.

Ocean Beach Cafe
Outer Richmond
Ocean Beach Cafe is an all-day cafe, fully alcohol-free bar and non-alcoholic bottle shop at 734 La Playa Street in the Outer Richmond, one block from Ocean Beach. It was opened by career bartender Joshua James, who bills it as San Francisco's first non-alcoholic bar, and it serves scratch-made food and Four Barrel coffee alongside craft zero-proof cocktails, chai and kava. The retail side stocks one of the largest selections of non-alcoholic beer, wine and spirits in the country. The cafe also runs Temperance Tastings, alcohol-free mixology classes, a private lounge called Temperance and a membership programme, Club AF. The San Francisco Standard has called it the granddaddy of the city's alcohol-free nightlife, and it is the anchor of non-alcoholic drinking in San Francisco.
Urban Farmer
Logan Square
Urban Farmer is the steakhouse inside the Logan Hotel on Benjamin Franklin Parkway, and its drinks menu carries a printed section headed "No Proof Cocktails" rather than burying the alcohol-free options among the soft drinks. The Cadillac Shirley Temple at $12 is the one worth ordering — house grenadine and verjus with lemon-lime soda and a cherry, where the verjus does the job a dry wine would. The Crimson Fizz pairs cranberry with a cranberry shrub and Fever-Tree ginger beer, and the Fauxpresso Negroni builds St. Agrestis Phony Espresso Negroni into cold brew with orange. Athletic Brewing's Upside Dawn covers the beer side. The kitchen serves from seven in the morning until half past eleven at night.
