Opened in 1962 as a SF lesbian hangout (technically relocating to Bernal in 1976), this neighborhood bar has an amazing history that’s told by the photos, sculptures (and shoes!) on the walls and in the yard. What could be mistaken as whimsical decor, these items represent the un-neighborly welcome the bar received after opening. Opposed to the idea of a lesbian bar, some members of the community left junk, trash and toilets on the doorstep at night in protest. The owners would not be deterred, thankfully, and defiantly turned the trash into a permanent art installation in the backyard. Today, the magical space is filled with clever sculptures—plants growing out of toilet seats and stray mannequin parts, all celebrating the unique character of the neighborhood.
