San Francisco, California
SoMa's friendly neighborhood gay biker bar since 1994.
Hole in the Wall bills itself as your friendly neighborhood gay biker's bar, and it has been a SoMa fixture since 1994 — first a couple of blocks away, then at its longtime Folsom Street home in the heart of the leather corridor. The room is all character: a dragon painted across the ceiling, chains and hardware bolted to the walls, a jukebox heavy on rock, blues, and soul, and a pool table in the back where two house teams shoot. The crowd runs to bikers, leather guys, and a down-to-earth mix of regulars who don't mind a dive that means it. Shirtless Thursdays knock a couple of bucks off drinks, Saturday afternoons bring a happy-hour pour, and there's never a cover. It is cash only, with an ATM on the wall. Loud, unpolished, and proudly itself, it is the kind of SoMa bar the neighborhood's condos keep failing to tame.
