Reviews
Central location but very, very expensive and constantly chased to order more drinks whilst still drinking the one we had. Nice to see the cable cars going by but that doesn’t justify the cost even in SF. One of those places you visit once and don’t return to. Service charge included automatically as well Shame really as it could be so different.
I love the Bartenders here. Super sweet and good service with a fine pour. I got to watch my Knicks win on the big screen! Super cool sitting there with the door open and the cable car goes by slanging.
