Hanging Out in 'Frisco’




Here’s what one reviewer wrote on Yelp after visiting the original Eddie Rickenbacker’s bar and grill in San Francisco:


‘Any place that has:

• Smoking after 9pm INSIDE
  (Great for your lungs)
• Old motorcycles hanging from the ceiling
  (Great for earthquakes)
• An old, overweight diabetic who eats pie and watches taxidermy shows on television in the front bar
  (Great for your appetite)
• And funny, lively bartenders 
  (Great for eye candy)

Deserves nothing less than 5 stars. I think I want to work here!’

Taking time out from a busy NADA Study Tour schedule to have a burger (HUGE) and a beer (YES, they did have Fosters) with a group of Aussie Dealers in 2011 was an unforgettable experience made more so by having lunch at Rickenbacker’s.

While Rickenbacker’s wasn’t part of the official tour and has sadly since closed down, it was an added highlight to what was to become an unforgettable NADA ‘San Fran’ experience.
