Asha S. • November 19, 2010If you're a smoker, take your drink with you to the balcony during intermission to avoid having to exit the building. Access it through a doorway by the statue next to either one of the elevators.

Ray Y. • September 25, 2013Small library with a small-town community feel. Old building dating back to 1910 with beautiful ceilings. Separate children's area. Computer terminals. Self-check out.

Jeremy B. • December 13, 2010Just in case you failed to notice the sheer sturdy & symetric appearance of the building, take another look. Above the entry way above the gate is a compass & square symbolic to the free masons.

Scoutmob • November 28, 2011Mission Dolores is the oldest building in SF, built in 1791. Two major earthquakes couldn't topple it, but powderpost beetles almost did in 2000. Thankfully, they were stopped.

Holger L. • January 21, 2013Fantastic built-for-Jazz building near City Hall. The acoustics are great and perfect for jazz. Feels more like an amphitheater than a classic concert hall.

Leah G. • March 7, 2020Gorgeous building!

Aaron W. • March 31, 2012Nice folks. Ask them about the amazing ancient French candles. Mossy building, anyone?

Christon D. • August 16, 2009see the shoe garden. it's behind the maintenance building.

CITY GRIT • August 1, 2014We love the innovative flavors but we also love that we can stroll down to the Ferry Building location when we’re staying downtown. We’re currently obsessed with the Hot Toddy Sunday.

Marilou A. • July 3, 2011If you stand on the Hayes St. side of Alamo Square, you'll have the best view of The Painted Ladies (Full House houses), St. Mary's Cathedral, the Transamerica building & the rest of downtown SF. ;)

Aaron S. • August 1, 2013Awesome building!

SFist • August 3, 2014The beautifully revived church-like 1914 building is the official West Coast home of New Orleans' Preservation Hall Jazz Band, so naturally the music lineup leans towards the soulful and folky side.

Athonia C. • December 24, 2019Happy hour is from 5-7pm. Margarita and similar drinks are $8. Be sure to turn left as you enter the front door otherwise you end up in the taco bar. they’re in the same building and share a bathroom.

Adrian C. • December 6, 2018A beautiful place to see a film, not just for the beauty of the building, but for the enthusiasm of the crowds that come to it.

Scoutmob • November 28, 2011During the 1980's the building that houses the popular restaurant NOPA was a laundromat. Appetizing, right?

Marvin • November 8, 2018Love the outdoor back patio filled with plants! Because it's situated between two two storey buildings it makes for the perfect cool shade while still having some natural light.
