What's Your Favorite San Francisco Bar or Pub?

It has to be friendly . . . no velvet ropes . . . no attitude

The world of bar hopping can be brutal and cold -- where you'll pay through the nose for lousy service and syrupy cocktails. We all have our home favorites and comfort zones.

So . . . where do you go for great drinks and friendly, unpretentious service? Which bartenders deserve "best of" awards for your time and money?
