Ryles Jazz Club

If you want to escape the pretentious outfits in the Square, Ryles is the place to go to for upbeat jazz and Latin music. Cheaper rents in Inman Square result in a large, sophisticated 2-story club that plays mainstream jazz on the first floor and Latin-oriented jazz on the second. With a cover charge ranging from $7-15 for live music, Ryles is considerably cheaper than other jazz places like the Regattabar. Temporada Latina conducts salsa lessons on Th nights ($12 before 9:15pm, $8 after), during which the place gets crowded fairly quickly. The club also serves 40 types of beer, a late-night menu, and a jazz brunch on Su of the same high standard as the nearby S&S Deli, owned and operated by the same family.
