Hurrah for SF Heritage for its Legacy Bars and Restaurants Map For generations, San Francisco has been home to a thriving landscape of neighborhood businesses that occupy an essential role in the stories and rituals that define the city. These bars, restaurants, cafés, and other places have attracted locals and visitors alike for a taste of the city’s unique character and sense of community. “Legacy Bars and Restaurants” is Heritage’s groundbreaking educational initiative that invites users to experience the history of some of San Francisco’s most legendary eateries, watering holes, dives, and haunts. This online guide is the first of its kind to celebrate iconic establishments that contribute to the culture, character, and lore of San Francisco. Recent threats to local institutions like the Tonga Room, Tosca Café, and Gold Dust Lounge underscore the need to develop new strategies for protecting places with intangible cultural significance. “Legacy Bars and Restaurants” documents the city’s vast culinary heritage and promotes businesses that do not necessarily qualify for formal historic designation. sfheritage.org/legacy/#
