Pour yourself into the weekend.
End the week with “Breakfast for Dinner” an @jencolliau created variation on the Negroni - built to recall the childhood treat of chocolate milk.
For those who love a great Negroni, the “Breakfast” has all the delicious bitter-sweetness of the classic but with an unconventional Cacao note, a silky toasted milk wash, and a rim of Cacao nibs.
It’s almost dinner time - we’ll make the drinks…

Say Hi Back.
Visit @theinterval on the right day and you’ll likely have a cocktail made by the ever-friendly @hotdawgdad - a man who personifies the common courtesy of greeting someone back when they greet you.
Despite his friendliness, @hotdawgdad is also a bit of a cocktail Samurai, known for his attire and his catlike reflexes… His new “Short Here” cocktail “Say Hi Back” is exemplar of his expressive personality and his swordsmanship behind the bar. Employing a Sweet/Tangy house-made Vodka Umeshu (Japanese Plum Liquor), Bright @beefeatergin, Lime and Raspberry, with a float of @ultravioletwines Brut Rosé, “Hi Back” is a delicate flavor bomb of plum, botanicals and aromatics, dusted with delicate dried rose petal.
If you fnd yourself thirsty this month, come visit Shawn, “Say Hi Back”, and enjoy the perfect fall refresh.

Beautiful Monster.
Green, salty, and tart, with an eyeball-like cherry garnish, it’s your last chance to order “They did the Mash” - @kingofbeans ghoulishly delicious “Short Here” cocktail.
Stop in to raise your spirits - and toast a happy Halloween @theinterval.

Coffee. time.

A Toast to your Inner Child.
If you’ve flipped through our recently refreshed cocktail menu, you may have found “Children at Heart”. This delightful collection of cocktails is an ode to the playfulness of childhood, tailored for adults, and imagined by the original beverage director @theinterval - @jencolliau.
Whether it’s a chocolate milk inspired Negroni, a tart/savory dirty martini, or a Spanish sherry creamsicle, Jennifer’s brilliantly nostalgic menu is sure to put you back in touch with your inner child.

Artist in Residence.
It’s a rare for any bar to have a resident artist - but @theinterval and our newly reimagined space, we have just that.
If you visit on the right day, you might run into Long Now Foundation editor and illustrator @caseycripe who has created, and continues to paint, a vast and complex painting entitled “Long Now” which rests under museum lighting on our south wall.
The four-by-twelve foot painting depicts a timeline of the “Long Now” - spanning the next and last ten thousand years - and is a beautiful part of the new exhibition space we have curated for our decennial anniversary.
If you are yet to see our “new” space, we invite you to grab a drink, sign our guestbook, and soak in the work of our “artist in residence”.

Sunsets on Sutro.
Indian summer and September have brought the warmth to San Francisco, and more than a few beautiful sunsets. @theinterval we have a sunset of our own that is a beauty to behold, and to drink.
This month’s “Short Here” elegantly created by @rexoomrex is called “Sunsets on Sutro” and like its namesake is an homage to the end of day beauty that coastal San Francisco does so well. The Sunset centers around the sweet-tangy, umami flavor of a house made black garlic & strawberry syrup, layers in warm tones of cardamaro and cinnamon, and blends in with the crisp notes of pisco and citrus vodka.
September is fast coming to an end and so is the summer, so make sure you don’t miss this Sunet.

Tonight is a full, super, blue moon.
Not only is it a rare and particularly beautiful night in San Francisco, but it’s also one of the few remaining days of this week before we close (temporarily) for a very special update to @theinterval.
Stop in and get that last delicious cocktail, and bask in the moonlight, we’ll be ready.
Details: We will be closed from Wednesday August 21st, until we reopen to the public on Friday September 6 (5-11p)

Packs a punch.
From our “Fads Turned Eternal” menu and featured for the month of August is a cocktail that was first formulated in 01732 by the members of the Schuylkill Fishing Company of Pennsylvania - at the “Castle”, the home of the oldest verified continuously operating social club in the English-speaking world.
The original build of the drink included Rum, Cognac, and Peach Brandy garnished with lemon slices, all presented in a voluminous baptismal font ”big enough to have swimmed half a dozen of young geese”… @theinterval we build ours with Jamaican rum, Armagnac, Apricot Brandy, and lemon & orange oleo for a sophisticated, delicious, and shockingly strong glass.
It is said that on a visit to the “Castle” George Washington (then first president of the United States) drank so much of the potent Fish House Punch, he subsequently couldn’t bring himself to make an entry in his diary for three days.
If strong drink is in your future, stop by, we’ll punch your ticket…
