For those more refined, age-ing hip folks, SOMA provides a low key and high fidelity atmosphere for saavy professionals in the late 20s to early 30s range. There’s comedy night at Brainwash, a cafe with laundry on site and free beer during happy hour. Cat club is home to the infamous bondage a-go-go and many other sunken-cheeked, darkened eyed dance nights. A plethora of wine, beer, and designer cocktail bars with an inviting, modern-rustic look can be found all down Folsom in this nabe, along with a few bondage gear/leather daddy stores. Throw in some cute fine dining-esque brunch spots and organic food markets and you have the perfect recipe for a healthy and well fed rebels becoming wise in their summer years. For those who like their adult alternative lifestyle to be more polished and refined, this nabe is the key. Alterna-teens be damned, its time to grow up just south of market.
