This is an old place.
It was built in 1908, when the Barbary Coast was still going strong … 1908, the year Bette Davis was born. The year of the first Model T. Four years before Woody Guthrie was born. Nine years before the last time the White Sox won the World Series. Twenty-eight years before the Bay Bridge. This bar was standing before, during, and after Prohibition.
