Established in 1907, The Savoy has long prided itself being a cross-section of society: “A favorite of Hippies and Beats, Punks and Preps, Ladies and Gents.” The sprawling, Grant Street bar complete with a covered front patio has seen its fair share in the buzzing North Beach neighborhood over the past century. But these days, the biggest cross-section may be between old-time regulars and the rowdy Saturday night crowd. It serves both groups admirably; the former can be seen crowded around patio tables during the afternoon, while the latter packs it in come nightfall for shots, photo booth shoots and maybe a phone number or two.
