The first gay bar in the US to have windows, putting it's patrons on display. This bar has a long history in the Castro and is featured on many tours. They also pour great drinks. Typically an older crowd and better suited toward having a nice cocktail and a good conversation.

One of the best burgers you can get in SF. This place is a small chain, one of which is blocks from my place on Market at 16th street. Served fast food style but with quality ingredients. Grass fed beef, organic produce etc.
