Trad'r Sams was listed in the Guardians top San Francisco dive bars...
San Francisco's famed Tonga Room features indoor rain showers in its tiki-themed splendour. The dive bar equivalent is Trad'r Sam (6150 Geary Boulevard, +415 221 0773) - no one knows what happened to the "e" - which features enough bamboo to choke a panda and, as an impressive touch, a pinball machine themed around Johnny Mnemonic - a terrible pre-Matrix Keanu Reeves film that hardly deserves to be eulogised in an arcade game).

A real American drinking den should be dark, slightly seedy and full of local characters. Nowhere does the dive bar better than San Francisco.
