Heinold's First & Last Chance Saloon Historic Jack London Square bar

48 Webster Street Jack London Square San Francisco, CA 94607 +1 510 839 6761 http://www.heinoldsfirstandlastchance.com

This historic pub and upscale bar is full of stories, character, and charm. Once a place Jack London himself would frequent to drink and write the story is that the famous author borrowed his college entrence fee from the bar's proprietor. The small bar still features a slanted wooden floor and charred walls leftover from the great San Francisco earthquake of 1906, which took its toll elsewhere in the Bay Area, too. Its name derives from the old days when it was the only bar at the port of Oakland. Each day as laborers would take the ferry to San Francisco and back again, this was the first and last chance for the working man to grab a drink. The bar serves only beverages and distributes literature on its history. Review © 2009, Wcities
