Local Edition

Local Edition is a subterranean speakeasy located at 691 Market Street in San Francisco's historic Hearst Building, housed in a basement that once contained a newspaper printing press. The cocktail bar draws inspiration from San Francisco's thriving newspaper business of the 1950s and 1960s, surrounding guests with vintage paper presses and archival newspaper clippings. The skilled mixologists craft innovative, perfectly balanced drinks in a low-lit atmosphere often featuring live jazz music with no cover charge. Open Monday through Friday from 4:30 p.m. to 2 a.m. and Saturday from 6 p.m. to 2 a.m., the venue welcomes both reservations and walk-ins seeking progressive beverages and historic ambiance.
