Description:

From the neon lights of Broadway to the lively saloons of Little Italy, North Beach’s round-the-clock bustle makes it the perfect destination for nightlife-loving revelers. Hop between the pubs and bars of the old Barbary Coast, sipping craft cocktails and pints as you paint the town with a local guide.

Charming and vibrant by day, North Beach gets downright rambunctious when the sun goes down, with locals and visitors alike flocking to its bar- and restaurant-lined streets. Stroll past the sidewalk cafés of Columbus Avenue, seeking out live music and high-energy scenes at 6 or 7 different Little Italy watering holes.

As you walk by sultry nightclubs and pull up stools at landmark drinking establishments, learn about this neighborhood’s colorful past. Your guide shares stories from the sordid and seedy days of the Barbary Coast and from the 1950s Beat movement that took this district—and the country—by storm. Your first drink is on your guide, so sip a glass of NorCal wine or made-by-the-bay Anchor Steam beer as you chat and plan the evening’s agenda.

Learn about the purpose of the trough beneath the bar at the Comstock Saloon, where Pigeon-toed Sal poured stiff drinks during the Gold Rush era, or step through the doors and onto the dancefloor of The Saloon—San Francisco’s oldest bar. Talk about literary giants at Vesuvio—one-time hangout of writers like Jack Kerouac—and, if you’re hungry, grab a slice of pizza or another Italian-inspired treat at one of the neighborhood’s late night eateries.
