This is the historic North Beach bar, located next to Lawrence Ferlinghetti's legendary City Lights Bookstore. Founded in 1948, it was frequented by a number of Beat Generation celebrities including Jack Kerouac, Allen Ginsberg and Neal Cassady, as well as Bob Dylan and Francis Ford Coppola. Cosy decor with walls lined with paintings, posters and photos. Perfect to immerse yourself in the bohemian atmosphere of the early 60s. To complete the picture, the pedestrian alley shared with City Lights is called Jack Kerouac Alley.
