Vaasa, Finland
After the tour you go to the bar and they give you a taste test of the lovely Maker's Mark. One glass is like regular and the other is maybe straight or pure, or one is a lot older than the other.
One of the nicest pubs in Temple Bar...always full both of locals and tourists enjoying live music and superb beer..
The Lone Palm bar, in San Francisco's Mission District.
Where every drink is served film noir and straight up. The Lone Palm experience begins as soon as you see the neon facade, and it usually carries through rest of the evening.
North Beach - San Francisco
A favorite among the town's university students, The Ambassador remains an old favorite among locals and has been in business for many generations. Specializes in pizzas, salads, nachos, and sandwiches.
Part of the McMenamin's empire of hotels, restaurants and bars, Kennedy School is a renovated old elementary school that has been turned into a complex of restaurant, hotel, bars, movie theater and brewery. The result is a fantastically odd and fun experience of school themed decoration, including a bar called detention, and hotel rooms with chalkboards in them.
One of Europe's greatest hostels. Housed in a renovated mansion just a few minutes' walk from Bairro Alto's shopping and nightlife, the Oasis is also just down the hill from Miradoura de Santa Catarina.
The Hotel Mosser is similar to small budget hotels you'll find in Europe. The building is old and the rooms are tiny, but the decor is a fun, funky mix of antiques and hipster furnishings.
