The Original Columbus Cafe

Welcome to the original Columbus Cafe, a historic parlor located in the center of San Francisco’s North Beach District at 562 Green Street.

Established in 1936 to serve the waterfront’s Longshoremen the Columbus Cafe has been a long standing tradition for locals and guests of San Francisco. The Columbus Cafe has the best happy hour in San Francisco, offering two for one draft beers from 4pm-8pm 7 days a week.

Stop by and have your favorite drink, shoot some pool, socialize with friends old and new, remember the moment in our very cool photo booth. Crank up the digital jukebox or catch the game on one of our three big screen TV’s. Have a Pyramid, Deschutes or Checkvar, which are atop the list of the twenty-six different micro brews on tap.

Open 365 days a year, with our two biggest celebration days being St. Patrick’s Day and the North Beach Festival. Columbus Café also has a separate full service bar downstairs that is available for private parties and functions. We can’t wait to see you. Cheers!
