  Best local bar in South San Francisco. Everything you'd expect and more. Friendly faces, good conversation, cheap drinks.

  Very friendly regulars and bartenders, solid jukebox, too. I killed a bit of time here and liked the place just fine.

  You might miss this place if you weren't specifically looking for it, especially when driving South on El Camino Real.  The BEER was cold and reasonably priced, the staff were reasonably friendly as well.
  
  This is the kind of place George THorogood might hang out at. Customers are generally locals and regulars who are friendly enough, but I'm sure would make unseasoned out of place tourists feel uncomfortable.
  
  I went here because it was recommended by a local friend, and it gave me the feeling I get at MY local hang out a thousand miles away. If you're the right type this joint can be a welcomed escape from the overly touristy bay area.
  
  This place is not on my recommend OR my avoid list. It just simply is what it is.
  
  CHEERS :)

  I love this place. Beer is always cold, conversation is always interesting, and I love that bar mix they have!! OMG it's the BEST!!! I could marry that shit. Uhmm oh and the pool table is really cute and runty. The only complaint I have about this bar is that they only take cash.

  This is a place for those that would like to just hang out and have a good time. Yes this place has its share of loonies - which bar doesn't? But they are good on 86'ing someone to leave the place if they are being disruptive. No it is not a fancy bar with appetizers. It is a NEIGHBORHOOD bar catering to us hardworking folks that just want to go have a beer - DOMESTIC beer thank you very much and shoot up the breeze. For you tourists...go somewhere and fork down $10.00 for a water down drink. But those of you regular people that want a place to go and laugh and have some good times...the Fairway is for you! It is the South City version of Cheers!

  Wrapping up the northern part of the Tour de El Camino (go to every Elco bar), what's up with all these bars not having anything on tap and just all bottles?
  
  I ask the bartender what kinda beers he's got and he mumbles a few things, mostly all domestics and I didn't order anything but being the pushy barkeep he is, just orders up a blue moon for me anyways. No food here either, but they do have whoppers at BK down the block.
  
  It's mostly a sports centered ssf watering hole with a few cool niner Montana clippings, ahh the good ol days when the niners were good.  
  
  Anyways, quite the interesting crowd here. This guy at the end of the bar was just slammed yelling at the tv where it showed the news and when Diane Feinstein came on he was just yelling at the top of his lungs that she was previously a man. Whoa! That's the cue to go play some pool on their minature sized table. Kinda bizarre but the rest of the tables/chairs in the bar are a little bit smaller than usual.
