Experience a whole New World of wine at BIN 38 Wine Bar & Restaurant. The wines of Argentina, Australia, California, Chile, New Zealand, Oregon, South Africa and Washington all take center stage.
BIN 38 provides wine, beer and food lovers a prime new place to sip, swirl and snack in the Marina district. We also offer a rare find in the city – two outdoor seating areas: a large, sunny outdoor back patio and a heated front sidewalk seating area.
With 51 wines by the glass, finding a favorite should be a thoroughly enjoyable task. The hand-selected, small production wines are unique and hidden gems from across the New World. BIN 38 also offers a selection of 23 exotic beers featuring a wide array of premier international and local breweries for those who prefer bitter over brix.
A creative and wine-friendly shared plates menu, crafted by head chef Glenn Christiansen formerly of NOPA and Delfina, provides the perfect complement to the wines. The locally-focused, seasonal menu complements and enhances the wine experience providing everything from light bar bites to heartier fare.
BIN 38’s interior is as unique as its ample exterior space with private alcoves boasting different vibes. An intimate, custom-made L-shaped couch fills one room while a tall, group-inspired communal table occupies another. Gold and burgundy flecked onyx countertops flank the long bar and a back room enabling private parties an opportunity to rent out a portion of the sleek space. Heat lamps and an outdoor fire-pit will keep things warm on the patio during chilly San Francisco days.
The name is a combination of the wine term Bin, signifying the parcel of land from which specific grapes are harvested and stored, and 38 - the latitude of San Francisco.
BIN 38 is brought to you by partners Don Davis of Uncorked Events, Peter Scully of Apartment 24 and 38 NORTH, and Shaw Amirghassemkhany and David Sheridan, both from the Shaw Management Group of Companies.
