Editorial Review

Share a table with the spirit of Kerouac. Legendary Beat Generation watering hole that’s retained its soul. Tourists come and go; neighborhood insiders make the place what it is. Knock back a beer at a tiny upstairs table while reading Allen Ginsberg. Scribble a letter to a faraway friend. Recite poems from the book you bought at City Lights across the alley. It’s all very San Francisco.
