14 Places To Take Tourists In SF That Won’t Make You Hate Yourself - San Francisco - The Infatuation

"You go to The Buena Vista for Irish coffee. In fact, the caffeinated cocktail was reportedly first recreated in the United States at this century-old saloon near Ghirardelli Square in 1952. Which certainly makes it a hub for tourists. Go with it. The long wooden bar is the best seat to watch all the action. Bartenders in white lab coats line up glasses, plop in sugar cubes, and fill them up with coffee, whiskey, and whipped cream. Whether you actually enjoy guzzling down a glass will depend on how much you like sweet and creamy drinks, and/or just enjoy checking out San Francisco tourist traps that are also classic institutions." - julia chen 1, lani conway, ricky rodriguez, patrick wong
