5 Gold Rush Era Bars That Are Still in Operation, From Former Speakeasies to Boom Town Saloons
"The Golden Gate Saloon, part of the Holbrooke Hotel, has been in operation since 1852. Despite a fire in 1855, it was quickly rebuilt and continues to serve classic and seasonal cocktails. The saloon retains its historic copper-clad walls and back bar. The venue also includes The Iron Door, a space with a speakeasy vibe, originally serving as a brothel and speakeasy."
