I Finally Went to Smugglers Cove

Aloha everyone! My wife and I were able to go out without the kids yesterday so we took the trip across the bridge to the city. My original plan was to park at the parking garage at the opera house, but that was closed, so I parked at the performing arts center garage, which ended up being a better place to park IMO, close by. The delay in finding parking led us to be like number 20 in line, not a huge deal, but I knew I wasn’t going to get to sit at the main bar. We got in line at 5 on the dot. The doorman started letting people in at about 5:05. We sat down in the Boathouse and I was cool with that, there’s just so much to look at. We all know how incredible smugglers is, so I’ll just say I totally agree with everyone regarding the drinks and decor instead of making this even longer. The bartender was so nice as well as the manager and bar back. Unfortunately, they sold out of the Kuhiko mug two days ago. Such a bummer, but I’ll be back! The bartender hooked me up with a couple stickers, and a stack of coasters though, that was very nice of her. Like a lot of spaces in SF, it’s tight in there, so you might as well make friends with the people around you, which we did. What a great experience, I’m looking forward to my next visit. The hype is 100% real. In closing, I just want to say again how nice the staff was, them being so cool really made the visit extra great.
