Shot this one over three days to get it just right 📸 From the haze of the jukebox to the flickering glow of that classic SF neon on Mission Street to all all the diverse, working-class souls of this great City in between.
Doc's Clock ain’t some kitschy theme bar—it’s the real deal and has been that way for over twenty years thanks to owner Carey Suckow, who still kept it alive through a relocation, a pandemic, a shuffleboard table crossing, and enough landlord drama to warrant an entire week on The People’s Court. Furthermore, she has tremendous respect for humanity, welcoming people of all walks, she keeps the noise in check for her neighbors, and has mad love for the overall community—a rarity amongst soulless profiteers slinging watered-down fifty dollar cocktails.
Once again, city slicker extraordinaire & Dive Bar Columnist Broke-Ass Stuart wrote the h3ll outta this story for SFGATE , complete with donkey games, a painting with a d**g, and a cast of Mission locals keeping it weird and thriving.
Long live the Clock. Long live reasonable drinks and business owners who give a damn.
📍2417 Mission St., SF
