The Pour House – TenderNob (Stay Away!)
PRO: Challin, the bartender was nice and I’m sure knows nothing of the owner’s sleaziness
CON: Everything else
Hey, you know us. Happy shiny people, am I not right? Skipping (and drinking and eating) hand-in-hand through life. Happy as pigs in poo, and all that. We like to look at the bright side. OK, OK, I hear ya, owner of K&L Wine Merchants: you are an unlucky exception. Well, ya think we have issues with you? Read on:
<begin rant> Two words: Walk in here and you’ll get scabies. On your face.
Why? The owner is a complete & utterly sleazy d-bag. He (and ‘he’ is lucky I didn’t look up his actual name) changed the name of his shit hole wine bar, ‘SNOB Wine Bar’ (stood for Sonoma, Napa or Beyond, cute ‘eh), to The Pour House.
Why is this so terrible, you ask? Well this complete & utterly sleazy d-bag knowingly stole the name out from under Chris Fogarty, Todd and gang over at R Bar. One of the, if not the, best dive bars in SF. Now we all know that Chris & co. are the coolest, and have been getting some good ink around opening up their second watering hole, The Pour House, later this year. So this desperate, SAY IT WITH ME PEOPLE complete & utterly sleazy d-bag steals the name out from under them in some pathetic attempt at short-term gains. And then flaunts it in front of them.
Pretty bad move, dude. I’d say picket this place, but I don’t want them getting any more attention than possible. Hopefully we’ll just see it boarded up soon. Just Don’t Go. Word. There’s plenty of other spots to grab a glass of vino in SF. <end rant>
Oh yeah, they have roaches, too! (seriously, I smashed one with their menu).
OK y’all, have a great day! (At anywhere other than The Pour House)
