Red's Java House

Old school San Francisco dive bar on the waterfront with a great patio and excellent service. Some great old photos including an absolutely priceless one of Peaches Christ showing righteous disgust. Only knock would be the rather pedestrian beer selection, but that's a minor quibble. Food is standard fried fare, perfect for the location. I hope it never changes as it's perfect as it is.

I really enjoy the food and atmosphere at Red's Java House. My husband and I decided to check it out because Anthony Bourdain used to go there and spoke highly of it, and it didn't disappoint. We've been there a couple times now and I love the veggie burger, my husband likes the fish & chips, and the onion rings are crispy and delicious. We like sitting out on the back patio right on the water.

I am in town for business and was recommended to come here from coworker. He also stated to get the Fish & Chips. I had the day off and meandered my behind down there. From the outside you would not want to go in, except for me, I like little places like this that don't have big fancy signs and fancy buildings. The fish was just a wonderful experience. It was crisp on the outside and tender in. It was not over, nor was it under done, it was the perfect piece of White Fish. The chips (french fries) were some of the best I have ever tasted. They were salted to perfection as well as cooked to the golden brown that some of us enjoy. Just as with the fish, the chips were crunchy on the outside, however, they were nice and moist on the inside. They were not soggy, but, they were just the perfect temperature. If you get to San Francisco, or anywhere within 100 miles, drive, bike, walk, or moped yourself down to this nice little place on the pier and grab you some Fish & Chips. They give you plastic utensils, of which, I am sure offends some of you, but, if it makes you feel better, they have a recycling can.

YUM!!!!⭐️AWESOME!!!!👍Amazing experience!!!! I read that the great Anthony Bourdain ate here so we visited too see what it was all about. Ok, this place is amazing!!! Simple, historic, delicious!
