It's been years since I haunted this place. Though the faces have changed, the feeling has remained the same which makes me happy. Still the best place for Scotch in the TL, quite possibly SF.

San Francisco’s most famous trivia night and arguably one of its most difficult—think Wall Street Journal meets China–is held here on Tuesdays at 8:30pm. Read more

Great dive bar !! Awesome interior and a good selection of beers . Was dead Monday but still a really cool place.

Ryan Ouyoumjian

Big place that is always good for a good time. Has a smoking room , pool table , dart boards and jukebox

Paddy

Pretty good dive bar . Very good happy hour deal . $3 pints and $3 well drinks from 4pm-7pm.

Matt Trudell

The smell of old beer fills my nostrils. The decor is like a castle saloon hybrid; complete with kitschy music . It's a quaint little place.

Zachary Reiss-Davis

Their pub trivia is some of the best in the city ; they let you bring in food from other places.

Natalie M

Such a cool and different bar . Had such a good time here for a friends birthday!

Sarah Chase

I remember when a group of us would come a find a table upstairs and hang out, people watch and listen to good music . Apparently, now it's a club with awful loud obnoxious music . And douchebags .

Used to be a great dive bar , now they seem to be trying to turn it into a club. Super disappointing.
