Friendly environment with nice pool tables that work for 1$ only. Beers are good and the people are nice, everyone in this city is nice.

This is a special place to me. Its the last place one of SF's best bartenders worked he was funny, poured an honest cocktail, and had an understanding for everybody.

Watched the 49ers game. It was like watching with family. The staff are super sweet & fast

Always solid. Visit whenever you're in the North Beach area. Great, friendly bartenders.

Always stop in here when I'm in the neighborhood, great relaxed place even on a Saturday night the crowd is still nice and low key.

Great place to play pool and grab a drink, favored by many north beach locals.

Tons of laughter fills this place. Great SF bar to bring people together. Great moments are created here.

Great old Dive Bar. Been here for a million years

Fast friendly service. Beers are served at the desired temperature and in glasses at the optimal cleanliness. Music isn’t too loud

Great local bar with friendly patrons and staff. The bartender Paully made everyone feel like family. We had a great time, we'll be back. Stop by for a good pour and a good time

Freddie is the absolute best. He made our night so fun and made the best drinks in the city. 10/10

My favorite spot to play pool. The bartenders are nice and drinks are great. The atmosphere is always fun and energetic. Several players with good skill level show up here. Weekends get fairly crowded and fun. The pool tables are really nice. They have Diamond brand tables, 8 ft, which they maintain fairly nicely.

We were told we had to visit this place from a nice gentleman we met in Prescott AZ. It is friendly local bar with a very friendly bar tender (Paulie) and customers. Within minutes of sitting down at the bar Pauly, Mike and others introduced themselves and were sure to check if we wanted to interact with them. This is a neighborhood bar with a few pool tables that has been around for a while, nothing fancy. There was no food but was told we could bring in some from any of the many restaurants near by. Had a great time and wish we could have stayed longer for more jokes and drinks.

Fantastic find, best tasting beer, great selection too. Served by Ronnie who took time to chat and look after everyone. We look forward to going again soon.

We just came to watch sports after a funeral. First time we had been together in SF as a family in 50 years. We drank and went down memory lane for hours and hours. Staff took great care of us. No food, we would bring in pizzas periodically from the business next door. Fun times!

The old school is the real school! An fantastic local gem, laid-back, affordable and charismatic. Bar tenders are attentive and friendly, and the location prime and safe; near some of the main attractions, next to several venues, and accessible. Go check it out!

Excellent service. We were out of town guests And the bartenders made us feel like family. Brett and Danny were our bartenders and they were incredible!! (Brett makes a great old fashioned, by the way!)

Great atmosphere, Great Beer, Friendly welcome, highly recommended, exactly what I thought and Italian American bar would be 👍

We only go for the monthly lunches and let me tell you they are amazing. If you want to meet people from the neighborhood that is the place to go. The food is also outstanding and the price you pay is really cheap for what you get. We absolutely love it. Steve always does a great job in accommidating us.

Staff rocks! Friendly warm atmosphere, locals are devoted and welcome all newbies! Mullah drinks, good pool game always. Frank Jr. & Brett are my 2 favorite bartenders 😳

A very comfortable environment where everyone is open and friendly. Steve who works behind the bar is exceptionally nice and a good conversationalist. It is an experience! Talking sports, rock and roll or whats happening in the neighborhood; it is alot of fun!

This is my go-to bar and I will never stop coming here. The bar has cheap drinks and a pool table which makes it even better. The music seems pretty chill as well and if you like playing a gentleman's game in peace, this place is for you ❤️

Good drinks but the music is rather loud and the tables are sorta small so it's harder to hear and you get awkwardly close to the person you're speaking with. Drinks and the atmosphere of the place make up for it though.

Great little dive with pool tables right next to a fantastic pizza joint... get a slice from Golden Boy and go here to buy cash drinks until your belly is full and your wallet is empty...

Cheap craft beers and a great place to meet local Franciscans. Pizza place next door is phenomenal and you can bring the food in here!

Well it was a different experience for me. Tight in there but it was the best darn garlic pizza I ever had. Wish they had that back in finleyville PA.

north beach festival fun! A good place to meet local SF people for a good price on beer! The pizza place next door is unbeatable!

Great place, but late at night request a clean glass for that second drink from bald pate.

We came to it because the Golden Boy Pizza doesn’t offer drinks. This place is cash only. That is why I only gave 4 stars. Environment is good and service is super. There are multiple options for draft beers. I noticed they are having pool table tournament at this moment.

Nice little spot with a dive bar feel. Friendly bartender. Cash only.

This bar has an old school feel to it and the gorgeous North Beach next door to Golden Boy Pizza. Orla was such a friendly bartender. The regulars we're welcoming to me. They also have a pool table. I stopped in while I was on a motorcycle ride and don't regret doing so. Go in for a drink.

Where everybody knows your name...or at least it feels like that type of place. You will get a feel for the Italian locals neighborhood. Cash only but drinks are good. Good spot if you are in north beach and want one more drink.

Interesting spot... As a pool player I thought the players would be more upfront. They all acted like they never played before. But also were upset when they couldn't win. Make up your mind folks! Cash only and one of the bartenders was cool... Other was a douche. I'll go back for sure!

If you want a beer this is the place. If you want to drink it on a clean bar where the bartender at least greets you go somewhere else. Ask for bar a wipe down you’re likely to get a dirty rag handed to you.

Great dive spit in north Beach. The bartender seemed over it and sighed when I ordered a cocktail as if I asked him to build me a table.

It was hard to have any fun at this place with all the smoking going on. I thought it was illegal??

Sassy and plane drinks. The bar crawl was trash and bartender was not nice. Cash only at the end when drinks were poured. Not pay

Horrible place. Their park let is taking up space from eating next door. Buy a beer if you wanna sit outside on public property or two baldies will come after you

Never come here This bar was absolutely horrible. I lost my phone there, and when I asked for it back, they refused to give it to me. They said I had to call the number first—but I had already transferred the number to my new phone! I drove an hour and a half just to get it back, and they wouldn’t help at all. Totally disrespectful and terrible customer service.

We decided to drop in at this bar. No one greeted us and no one seated us. No one approached us for drinks or service. We went to the bar and ordered our own drinks. The drinks came to $14 and the bartender said thanks when I gave him a $20. And didn’t try to give me my change back. I don’t mind adding my gratuity but that’s my choice. Don’t ignore me and then take my change. We were there for 5 minutes and left since we didn’t feel comfortable. If you are from out of town, avoid this pub.
