English Breakfast at Residence Bar in San Francisco

The Residence Bar is located in Duboce Triangle in San Francisco. It's tea time and my research partner is having an English Breakfast. Since this was an impromptu stop on a mini bar crawl, my partner was looking for something light. The cucumber lemon spa drink seemed like the perfect choice. But she'd never had Pimm's. I said "Order it! You'll love it." So did she like it? Yep, it was sipped away with the blink of an eye.

Now where are the dainty finger sandwiches, scones and crumpets to along with this afternoon tea?

Riding With Death at the Residence Bar

The Residence Bar and Lounge is in the Duboce Triangle neighborhood of San Francisco. I was walking on my way to Churchill Bar when I saw The Residence door open. It's been on my radar to try since it opened in 2010, but I'd never been. So I decided to take a look at their cocktail menu. When I saw a lot of the drinks were pretty heavy for a Sunday afternoon, I started walking out the door. I am so glad that the bartender said "C'mon, give us a try." With no one else in the bar, my research partner and I headed straight for the bar stools. Once I read the cocktail title, Riding With Death, I knew what I was going to order. What a great cocktail to start off a late afternoon. I love the color in this drink from the Campari and perhaps the grapefruit juice. You surely are Riding With Death with one too many of this cocktail.

At the Residence Bar, sit back and relax at one of the comfy couches in the lounge or pull up a seat at the bar. Either way, you know that you will be having a delicious cocktail.
