Cavaña

Cavaña sits on the seventeenth floor of the LUMA Hotel at 100 Channel Street, overlooking Mission Bay, the creek and Oracle Park. The Infatuation describes it as a Latin American bar that manages to make Mission Bay feel as though it has been given the Miami treatment, complete with a dance floor and a DJ playing reggaeton, and notes that the crowd is a mix of dressed-up visitors and locals stopping for a drink and a bowl of ceviche before a Giants game. The bar runs to midnight from Sunday through Thursday and to 1am on Friday and Saturday, opening early on Saturday afternoons.

The non-alcoholic drinks are printed on the main cocktail card under a spirit-free heading, immediately after the full-proof list, and there are six of them — more than most licensed bars in the city carry, and covering a wider range of styles. Maracuyá is built on Almave, the de-alcoholised blue agave spirit, with Wilderton Citrus, an aperitivo, passionfruit agave and lime. The Phoney Mezcal Negroni combines a Peruvian agave distillate with Pathfinder amaro and Abstinence blood orange aperitif, giving the bitter-and-smoky profile that is hardest to reproduce without alcohol. Guava Fresca is lighter, made with a blood orange aperitivo, fresh lime, guava and soda water. Michelada-Nada uses a non-alcoholic cerveza with the bar's own michelada mix, which is a genuinely rare listing. Chicha Morada is the traditional Peruvian purple-corn punch cooked with pineapple, apple and cinnamon, and Bananito is a dessert-leaning build of spiced banana oat milk with a cold brew float. Fieldwork's non-alcoholic grapefruit blonde ale is stocked in cans alongside them, and a set of aguas and Mexican sodas — agua de piedra sparkling water, Coca-Cola Mexicana, Fever-Tree ginger beer and pineapple Jarritos — rounds out the alcohol-free half of the menu. Because the bar is on a hotel roof with a dance floor and live music, the practical value of six spirit-free builds is that a guest can spend a whole night out here on the same terms as everyone else at the table.
