Local Poets Choice! – Have been back many times to The Bell Tower for good round of food and an excellent WINE LIST! MOST EXCELLENT CALAMARI! Best drink to order is The Bell Tower Bell Ringer! Absolute slowly poured over rocks with a few dashes of erotic organic cranberry juice. THEN, Barby the Wonderful bartender will take slice of lime and slowly rub along rim of glass and stir with finger of your choice.... comes in a double! At the bar, outside or upstairs at a table it is all very good. On a Friday night I just may be t... read more

Consistently good! – Nice atmosphere, friendly staff and good food. What more could you ask for in a pub/restaurant? You will get good service with a smile along with a solid menu that features an array of foods, particularly for the carnivore.

Great place for a dog friendly meal – Having outside tables makes this place a tasty stop on a walk with your dog, and a great place to meet up for a pint.

Down Home in SF – The atmosphere is always friendly and no matter what time of day it is, there will be people sitting next to you at the bar ready to talk. Or sit at a table inside or out and have a meal, starting with the warm pastachio brie or spinach salad , cheap drinks as SF goes, and move on to a great dinner special. The regular menus keep regulars coming back, like the breakfast burrito during weekend brunch. Plus, if you like sports bars but are tired of it being a mad house, go to The Bell!

Home-style pub grub is served in a relaxed and unpretentious atmosphere at this Polk Street favorite. – In Short This local haunt is known for its weekend brunches and late-night dinners. Count on this downplayed version of a gastro pub to attract varied clientele to its casual atmosphere with cheap eats and a friendly staff. The menu offers much of the expected, like a barbecued pulled-pork sandwich or half-pound "Bell Burger," but it also has a few surprises, like fried calamari with a creole remoulade sauce and Mexican st... read more

Belle of the Ball – Bell Tower is one of my favorite places to go for a relaxed meal, especially on a sunny afternoon or evening. It's corner location catches all the sun, which makes the outdoor seating quite fantastic. Keep your eyes peeled for an open table on the hot & sunny weekends (otherwise not much of an issue). Ambiance aside, one other thing that keeps me coming back is, of course, the food. Specifically, their spinach salad. I always order it without bacon (don't eat meat, but i eat fish), dressing on the side, a... read more

way better than taco bell – pretty good for flesh eaters, though sparse on vegetarian fair... nice outdoor seating, cheap house wine, and there is usually a big dog out front that just lays there all day long. he is nice.

Great go-to – I really like this restaurant. It has great food, nice staff and great margaritas. Only complaint is that it's a little overpriced.
