A Classic Cocktail Den

at Comstock Saloon

It's always a pleasure to behold something that's aged gracefully (e.g. Angkor Wat, an '82 Lafite Rothschild, or Epic Beard Man). Add the corner of Columbus and Kearny to that list, thanks to Comstock Saloon.

Walking into this century-old corner spot—brought to you by two Absinthe bartenders—is like stepping back into your great-grandfather's cherished watering hole, complete with slow-rotating 1916 fans filling the lofty ceiling and the bar's original spittoon trough at your feet.

The Sōsh Insider

Order This

"The drink menu's flush with expertly mixed classics, but if you're feelin' adventurous, opt for the "Barkeep’s Whimsy," a tender’s choice cocktail that "suits the spirit and flavor preferences of individual guests". See the full menu here." — The Sōsh Concierge

Pro Tip

"Comstock also serves food. The menu's by an ex-Camino chef, and includes stuff like grilled quail with oyster stuffing, beef shank and bone marrow pot-pie, and a confections plate of peanut brittle, chocolate fudge, and sassafras candy -- a dish that packs so much sugar, you may need someone to bring amber lamps." — The Sōsh Concierge

What to Order

"Order a gin darb, not on the menu but one of the best drinks in my opinion!" — Sarah Richardson
