Address: 46 Minna St., San Francisco CA (SoMa/Potrero Hill)
Appealing to the more discerning after-work and late night San Francisco crowd, Harlot provides a unique social experiance in an ostentatious modern-Goth setting in the city.
The Name Harlot is a nod to the city's History, Specifically Minna Street where she is located as local legend tells, the alleys of san francisco's south market area are named after the barbary coast era's famous ladies of the evening, the Harlots. Ordinary scorned and ostracized, the harlots of the gold rush days were highly respected and treated with an exaggerated deference since there were so few women in san francisco at the time. Whenever a women appeared on the street, business was practically suspended. She was followed through the town by an adoring crowd,while self-appointed committees marched ahead to clear the way and to protect her from the too boisterous salutations of the emotional miners.The harlots, supposedly, even had their own box at the opera.
With a unique history like this, it's no wonder why Harlot is one of San Francisco's best nightlife destinations. The best place to kick-back ..
