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

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

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

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

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.

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.

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

Frank is. BY FAR. The. Coolest bartender. Order from him by name: expect a great drink

Order fish and chips; they come wrapped in newspaper, as they should!

Recession Special! A shot of choice and PBR for $5!

Be kind and tip your bartenders! It sounds odd, but ask for a PBR with lemon. #winning

They have an entire smoke room #CancersDelight

Yes I said it, great hang out & they kept the Scotish feel about the place.
Tim HarrisonApril 19, 2015
Used to be a great dive bar, now they seem to be trying to turn it into a club. Super disappointing.
