    This is a 49ers bar. They play the audio for the 49ers game or music. Nothing else.

    Loud, kinda sticky and under a hostel (it often smells like weed). It’s ok? Seems like better places around.

    Extremely noisy sports bar with uncomfortable seating. The food is so so and the beer selection is uninspiring.

    If you like bros, mediocre food, and terrible service, this place is for you. What I am trying to say is just skip it!
