San Francisco Wine Bars

Experience a whole new world of wine at BIN 38 Restaurant & Wine Bar. The wines of Argentina, Australia, California, Chile, New Zealand, Oregon, South Africa and Washington all take center stage, along with old world classics from Italy, France and Spain.

BIN 38 provides wine, beer and food lovers a prime place to sip, swirl and snack in the Marina district. We also offer a rare find in the city – two outdoor seating areas: a large heated and tented back patio and a heated front sidewalk seating area.

With over 50 wines by the glass, finding a favorite should be a thoroughly enjoyable task. The hand-selected, small production wines are unique and hidden gems from across the globe. BIN 38 also offers a selection of 35 exotic craft beers featuring a wide array of premier international and local breweries for those who prefer bitter over brix.

A creative and wine-friendly contemporary American wine bistro menu provides the perfect complement to the wines. The locally-focused, seasonal menu complements and enhances the wine experience providing everything from light bar bites to heartier dinner fare.

BIN 38’s interior is as unique as its ample exterior space with private alcoves boasting different vibes. An intimate, custom-made L-shaped couch fills one room while a tall, group-inspired communal table occupies another. Gold and burgundy flecked onyx countertops flank the long bar and a back room enabling private parties an opportunity to rent out a portion of the sleek space. Heat lamps and an outdoor fire-pit will keep things warm on the patio during chilly San Francisco days.

The name is a combination of the wine term BIN, signifying the parcel of land from which specific grapes are harvested, then stored in a ‘bin’, and 38 – the latitude of San Francisco.
