Potent potions and lipsmacking quack cures are proudly served at this apothecary-style Barbary Coast saloon. Tartly quaffable Lachlan's Antiscorbutic (lime, sea salt, two kinds of gin) is a surefire cure for scurvy and/or sobriety; when in doubt, go Call a 'Treuse (Chartreuse, lemon, vanilla, egg white). There's happy hour until 7pm, but no food; switch to nonalcoholic 'remedies' (soda with herbal tinctures).
