Tonic Bar

September 6, 2003

Tonic, formerly located at 2360 Polk Street, was a popular nightlife spot in Russian Hill. Known for its plush, dark-blue velvet couches, creative cocktails, and a jukebox that specialized in British alternative bands, it was a go-to for a rowdy night out. The bar closed its original location in April 2018, citing high rent and a changing neighborhood, but later reopened in Lower Nob Hill.
