My favorite of the day’s stops: Vesuvio Cafe, on Columbus Avenue, where Megan and I sampled the “Recession Special” (a beer and a shot for $4!). The decor at Vesuvio is absolutely jaw-dropping: kind of Wailea-meets-Woodstock, with wicker chairs, dusty chandeliers, and one totally awesome bartender.
When my friend Alex and I did an impromptu trip to San Francisco, we found ourselves at Vesuvio a lot— favorite hang out of the Beats! We loved the funky decor. Be sure to check out La Boulange, there are a bunch of locations scattered over the city— they have the BEST sides bar, with nutella, pickles and olives. And they serve their coffee to stay in the loveliest bowls.
