About Elbo Room - San Francisco
Elbo Room in San Francisco is a storied two-level bar and live music venue located at 647 Valencia Street in the Mission District. With a downstairs bar and an upstairs performance space, the venue hosts reggae, fusion, indie, and alternative acts—historic favorites like Dub Mission and Afrolicious have graced the stage. After its 2019 reopening as The Valencia Room, the space remains a go-to spot for intimate shows and eclectic lineups. Whether you’re here for a late-night set or a weekend dance night, we’ve got you covered with practical details to help you plan your visit.

There is no on-site parking, but nearby garages and street parking on Valencia Street provide options. The venue is easily accessible by public transit, a short walk from 16th St Mission BART and well-served by MUNI routes.
