Old Bus Tavern

"Brewpub Old Bus Tavern is scheduled to close September 8. The owners stated it had become too difficult to run a restaurant and bar in San Francisco." - Janelle Bitker

"The brewer will move into what’s currently the home of Old Bus Tavern, a brewpub at 3193 Mission Street, which is closing after September 8th." - Caleb Pershan

"Old Bus Tavern, a friendly Mission/Bernal neighborhood brewpub, is closing after three years of operation. Known for its chili, burgers, and lemon basil saisons, the brewpub was opened by Jimmy Simpson, John Zirinsky, and Bennett Buchanan in 2015 with chef Max Snyder. Despite earning critical attention initially, they later adjusted the food menu to a more approachable style. In their final year, they focused on live music and a communal atmosphere. Financial obstacles in San Francisco have been a challenge, but the supportive local businesses and SF Brewers Guild have been beneficial." - Caleb Pershan

"Mission Street brewpub Old Bus Tavern will let beer geeks show off their knowledge (and drink and hangout) with a beer trivia night. Play solo or bring nerdy friends. Details: 8 p.m. to 10 p.m. at Old Bus Tavern." - Caleb Pershan
