The Best Late Night Restaurants In San Francisco - San Francisco - The Infatuation

"Grubstake looks like a streetcar, which is certainly one reason this American diner in Polk Gulch stands out. The other is that this spot, which has been going strong since the 1960s, caters to the red-eye crowd—serving straightforward burgers, tuna melts, breakfast plates, shakes, and fries until 3am Sunday through Wednesday and 4am Thursday through Saturday. And since this is a late-night spot with greasy-spoon energy, you can slide into a red booth, admire the old mural and fake grapes hanging from the ceiling, and fill up on all things fried." - julia chen 1, lani conway, ricky rodriguez, patrick wong
