Optimistically-named lounge bar on Folsom with more than a touch of San Francisco colour in its clientele. The plush up-market lounge area is lit in a deep red glow and has fine leather couches to recline on that suggest a certain patrician class rather then posiness. Yet the clientele cannot be boxed in either way: a happy mix of suits, gays, straights, clubbers, trendies and down home regulars, who come for the reasonably-priced beers and fine cocktails because service is friendly and spot on. Staff will carry large drinks to your tables and add a little extra shot of rum in your Caiparinha if you tip them well. Happy hour is really happy three hours (5-8pm) and the crowd are as friendly and laid back as the staff.

Twenty years ago, Melissa Chittick and Stephen Salmons had a magnificent idea. They wanted to share their love of early cinema with the world and they knew that presenting silent films as they are meant to be seen—in beautiful prints on a big screen with live musical accompaniment—could thrill modern audiences. Today, their creation has outstripped their wildest dreams and grown into the largest and most prestigious silent film festival outside of Pordenone, Italy. Over the years, the San Francisco Silent Film Festival has become an internationally renowned destination for filmmakers, scholars, and movie lovers. Every year enthralled audiences partake of new discoveries and old favorites accompanied by the likes of the Matti Bye Ensemble, Mont Alto Motion Picture Orchestra, Alloy Orchestra, Stephen Horne, Donald Sosin, and Dennis James on the Castro Theatre’s world-famous Mighty Wurlitzer organ. In the last 20 years, the festival has presented more than 150 rare and classic silent films, all with live music performed by the most accomplished composers and musicians in the field. We have published over 140 original essays by local writers and key figures in silent-film history, preservation, and music, and we have supported film preservation efforts by exhibiting major restorations, as well as by direct funding and a fellowship for emerging archivists. The Festival has commissioned new scores that have set a new standard for excellence in film accompaniment. Every summer—and during special events throughout the year—the Festival brings authors, archivists, and filmmakers to the stage to help audiences appreciate the history, preservation, and continuing influence and importance of these early works of cinema art.
SFGFF is the city's leading movement for films & conversations about people and the planet.

In addition to the annual Green Film Fest each Spring, we present year-round community events in the San Francisco Bay Area.
