Harrington's Bar & Grill

Family run for three generations, Harrington’s is an Irish pub located in a historic building in San Francisco’s financial district. Opened in 1935 at 245 Front Street by Henry Harrington who, with son Leo, well-looked after the rich mix of customers: sea captains, steam ship executives, seafarers, laborers, produce workers, longshoremen, printers, and a broad cross-section of humanity. The Embarcadero Center replaced the produce market as Harrington’s biggest neighbor in the 1960’s. Run today by Leo’s son Michael, the clientele reflects the financial district that has grown up around Harrington’s with the customers being a broad diverse mix of people, from laborers and lawyers to locals and visitors alike.
