3. Dogpatch Saloon

Neighborhood: Potrero Hill

of the patrons.   Crazy? No way. This is probably pretty typical of the locals who hang out in this nice neighborhood bar. The bartenders are equally nice, with a heavy hand on the pours.    I hear the jazz...

drinking and smoking.  Bartenders were also very nice.  This is a great neighborhood bar!...
