Hadn't been there since 2017 but I moved back into the area and checked it out on Pride weekend. Its different. No longer sells food. Still has 3 bar area opens and vip on main floor when you come in. Basement floor is closed now but rear outside area is open. Bartenders were nice and quick. Bathrooms were clean and stocked. They played edm throwbacks to 2010 which I loved! Not too crowded earlier in the night. They have bottle girls. Its open til 2 am now not 4 am like before. They let us in free since we got there early around 11:30 pm.

I had a great experience at Temple recently with a bunch of friends on 5/25, which was allegedly their last day open according to SF news sources. I found out on that night from staff, however, that it wasn't their last night and they're still open. Having recently moved to SF from the LA metropolitan area, I was super impressed by the venue. It is way nicer and larger than any of the LA clubs I've been to in Ktown and Hollywood. I certainly hope it stays open because places like this make me want to go out every weekend.

the music was iffy so check whose DJ'ing to make sure it's your music taste! the bartenders were so nice and very quick with their drinks. lots of room to dance so bring your dancing shoes & let go for the night! the bathrooms are very clean & monitored by a person throughout the whole night. don't be afraid to bring your jacket, coat check is $5 but they take cash & card. there's a smoking section out back with chairs too!
i had a great night with my friends and would go back on another night with music that's closer to what i like:)Helpful 1Thanks 3Love this 0Oh no 0 - Alicia M.Evergreen, San Jose, CA0813Aug 11, 2024
Security needs better training, period! A friend and myself came to see Pauly D perform, paid like everyone else, my friend was feeling unwell, *as it happens in nightlife and night life establishments. The restroom doors were being banged on while my friend was utilizing the restroom. Upon leaving the event another security guard (extremely unprofessional) stated my friend could not stay and we needed to leave, as we were already on our way out, I told him the security individual he needed to know where they are at in their line of work, as they are in nightlife establishment and you have someone ill in the restroom while banging on the restroom door to get out! For further emphasis on tonight's event, management can contact me directly, thank you. (Attention Management: Check your cameras in the restroom hallway of main floor and see that I was violated in being touched for no relevant reason and without consent, nor reasoning as to why I was shoved by your security in the event I was already leaving the establishment.)

I wore a crop top and was kicked out. It was homophobic. I ordered drinks and nobody said anything but the male security guards told me to leave since I was wearing a crop top. My friend took a drink into the bathroom and was told she would be kicked out if she didn't take the drink and leave it by the door of the bathroom. Will
Never be going again. Very homophobic place. Don't go if you're gay. They obviously don't support any type of pride.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Apr 18, 2023
This place is RACIST and it was the first time feeling DISCRIMEATED AGAINST in a club in San Francisco. It was the worst experience ever. I would NOT come here again.
We got pushed hard on the floor and my friend fell on her knees, she got bruised. We felt very unsafe because of the bad management and security here. We were being blamed for fell down on the floor and they kicked us out because we are chinese girls. The poor choices they made makes me question about this place.Helpful 41Thanks 3Love this 2Oh no 24 - 116440Sep 23, 2023Updated review
"Yeah whatever" after a woman tells the security guard to stop talking about her like she's an object. If security isn't there to protect you, then who is? This is some BS. This place should have closed down a long time ago. I still remember the Asian man who goes to this club to traffic women. I saw him twice. Should've taken a picture.

HI Rashika,
We absolutely do not tolerate any forms of sexual harassment or assault in our venue. When reported, we take these situations VERY seriously. Did you have a specific incident or situation that you would like to speak to someone about? If so, we do invite you to contact us at info@templesf.com and we can put you in touch with our operations and management teams to discuss any problems.
There is no function on Yelp for us to "hide reviews" - as the Yelp algorithm controls the most seen, top reviews and any order that they are placed in. We are Yelp "enhanced profile" users, which allows us to remove our competitors ads and suggestions from our page, but that is as far as the platform goes with any sort of removing or re-ordering of content.
We can assure you that we don't want anyone to feel uncomfortable in our venues, and have heavy security and staff presence, who are all trained to deal with any aforementioned allegations of sexual assault or harassment. Again, if you have any issue you would like to address - even if from 2019, we would love to have you reach out!
We appreciate ALL feedback, and work diligently to make Temple SF a safe space and great environment for every single one of our guests and employees!Aug 21, 2021Previous reviewWhat are you doing about the date rape and sexual harassment issues in your club to keep every one safe? Came here in 2019 for Lil Jon, biggest regret. This place is swarming with people trying to harass under the influence people. Doesn't matter how much money you drop in bottle service. I've seen men grab women's chests and men's crotches. Club goers should feel safe. Never coming here again.
Also, scroll down and click the "not recommended" reviews. The business owner is hiding all the bad reviews to make their image look good. - Jan 15, 2023
Buy tickets online! Plays edm on the top floor and edm remixes on the basement level 55. I think for more popular events they may regulate more but they didn't care to separate the tickets for either spaces. The lines going in are a bit confusing to navigate but the coming in from right side? is preticket and forward is guest list and other side is no ticket I think. The lounge area is quite new and refreshingly cold with some couches to wait for uber. Otherwise, warehouse vibes.
Does get hot, bar area downstairs gets crowded. I would say there's p much no dress code. I mean probably no athletic wear but I saw girls wear jeans, and guys wear sneakers, puffer jackets and hoodies so not too bad. The security can be a bit aggressive with checking body for anything. There's a diversity of groups and i can see how level 55 can get packed but the top area has way more space.Helpful 4Thanks 0Love this 5Oh no 1 - Feb 20, 2023
Temple was my first clubbing experience in SF and I had so much fun! The music was great upstairs (Imanbek was the DJ playing that night) and downstairs they were playing a lot of classic throwback pop songs.
However, I was disappointed by the bottle service we paid for. First, we paid almost $2000 for a table for 10, and there was barely enough space for 8 people and we had to share the space closely with another group of 4. The bouncer was rude to us, and ended up kicking our whole group out after claiming one person was being too rowdy- I would've assumed the amount we paid would've given us the privacy to have fun in our own table.
The bottle service girls were really nice and helpful, and it was really fun when they came out with the birthday sign and confetti.
I would come back to temple for a night out, but I do not recommend bottle service. It was overpriced and bouncer was not professional. If anyone has any recommendations for good bottle service in SF, would love to hear them!Helpful 4Thanks 1Love this 3Oh no 2 - Kim D.Blossom Valley, San Jose, CA057May 26, 2024
My friends and I were using the bathroom in one stall and the bathroom attendant was BANGING on the door constantly, saying we couldn't be in there together. Mind you, we were simply trying to relieve ourselves & our bathroom excursion was a max of 5 mins. She went as far as to get a MALE security guard in the WOMEN'S restroom to berate us. He continued to harass us as we were washing our hands. Do not recommend coming here at all .
