Frequently asked questions

Is the pool table free?

Yes. One old-fashioned table, free play, every day we're open. No quarters and no table fee. First come, first served.

Is there a cover charge for the live jazz?

No cover, no minimum. The Vince Lateano Trio plays the first Friday of every month from 6 to 9pm, outside on Francisco Street. Dress for the weather since the band is out in the parklet.

Do you serve food?

Yes. Thin crust pizza, shepherd's pie, mac and cheese, a toasted pretzel with spicy mustard, Castelvetrano olives, and house roasted nuts. Not a full kitchen, but real food.

What non-alcoholic options do you have?

BrewDog Hazy AF, Hopwater, Fever Tree ginger beer, Red Bull, and Fre alcohol-removed white and red wine. Always stocked. If you're not drinking there's something here for you.

Do you have outdoor seating?

Yes, we have a parklet on Francisco Street. It's where the jazz plays on first Fridays.

When is the next art opening?

A new artist goes up on the wall every month in the Black + White Gallery, with the opening usually on the first Friday from 6 to 8pm as part of the North Beach First Fridays art walk. Free and open to anyone.

What are your hours?

Open seven days. Monday through Thursday and Sunday, 4pm to 10:30pm. Friday and Saturday, 4pm to 11pm. There is no happy hour.

Where are you exactly?

475 Francisco Street, between Mason and Powell, tucked off Columbus Avenue in North Beach. A short walk from Fisherman's Wharf and Pier 39.
