They call it B Bar, not A+ Bar, and that's about right.

I LOVED B Bar's location - in Yerba Buena Gardens, next to Samovar Tea Lounge - it overlooked the whole city, and I went on a beautiful, sunny Friday afternoon. The happy hour drinks were $5.00 each, which I consider a steal anywhere outside of the mission. I had a ginger/gin cocktail, which was perfect in the heat. Sure, it was a little a yuppy, but what place downtown during happy hour isn't?

The one that TOTALLY lacked about this place was the totally inept service. Adam W. adopted my lemon wedge story as his own, which is unfortunate because he didnt mention that before the place got busy the bartender was a pretty nice guy. But he (and the other bartender, and bar back, and GM) all cracked under the pressure of the 6 o'clock cocktail rush, resulting in really terrible service.

I am hoping this is just growing pains, and they'll get their act together asap. But I have no idea about the Greeness of B Bar, and I didn't notice anything that suggested it was trying to be Green.
