About this business

Not much made it through the Great San Francisco Earthquake and Fire of 1906, but this bar did. There is a great story behind that. Reportedly, local firemen (loyal customers) diverted water from other locations in order to save this place. Its customer loyalty is just as strong today. Founded in 1861, it has as much history as it does popularity. Come for live blues and all the charm of a tradition that is over a century old.

Like all the reviews say this is a great place and the oldest bar in SF. This time jazz great Kim McNally stopped in and wowed everybody with a few songs. That's the way this place is, great musicians stop by and jump in on a set, the music is real, no electronic DJs. Love it.

Un des plus vieux bar de SF. Le décor est assez incroyable, il y a des groupes de musique qui se produisent. Ambiance très sympa. Ça change des bars voisins ;-)
