Buena Vista Café

Bars, Fisherman's Wharf


Fodor's Review:

Smack dab at the end of the Hyde Street cable-car line, the Buena Vista packs 'em in for its famous Irish coffee -- which, according to owners, was the first served stateside (in 1952). The place oozes nostalgia and draws devoted locals as well as out-of-towners relaxing after a day of sightseeing. It's narrow and can get crowded, but this place is a welcome respite from the overpriced, generic tourist joints nearby.
