ABV

ABV is a Mission District cocktail bar that opened in summer 2014, founded by Erik Reichborn-Kjennerud, Ryan Fitzgerald, and Todd Smith (a founding Bourbon & Branch bartender). It was named Imbibe Magazine's 2015 Bar of the Year and ranked #39 in the inaugural North America's 50 Best Bars (2022), the only San Francisco bar on that list. The menu is organized by base spirit, with dedicated "LOW ABV" and "0% ABV" sections that make the no/low offering a standing, structured part of the program rather than an afterthought. The non-alcoholic cocktails ($14) center on a house "n/a aperitif" and bright, fresh builds — the N/A Negroni (n/a aperitif, charred grapefruit tonic), Flightless Bird, Green Dream (tarragon, lemon, ginger, tonic), and Jumpstart (carrot, ginger, turmeric, lemon, soda) — alongside Lagunitas Hop Water and IPNA. ABV makes drinks to order and runs a late kitchen until midnight.
