Title: Ace Cafe SF: Gone, But Not Forgotten...And Not Really Gone! Post by: desmoquattro on May 01, 2011, 05:32:34 PM You might've heard: Ace Cafe San Francisco (http://www.acecafesf.com/) has lost its lease and had to shut its doors. But that wasn't before one last bare bones MotoGP showing today:

But fear not, there's good news: Rob will be doing MotoGP showings at the SFMC Clubhouse (http://sf-mc.org/)! Sunday, 15 May at 3PM and 6PM Rob will be serving drinks and showing LeMans! And Rob's identified several potential new locations for Ace in the area!

Peter (ironic name for a porn guy) has wanted to own/transform Ace Cafe for years. Title: Re: Ace Cafe SF: Gone, But Not Forgotten...And Not Really Gone! Post by: Cynic on May 06, 2011, 10:40:06 AM I'm sad I have nowhere to go to see WSBK this Sunday.
I guess my Mother In-Law will be happy, I'll have no reason to run off after Mother's Day brunch... Title: Re: Ace Cafe SF: Gone, But Not Forgotten...And Not Really Gone!

I guess my Mother In-Law will be happy, I'll have no reason to run off after Mother's Day brunch... The D store will show it. And there's racing at Infineon so you have two excuses to piss off the mother in law! |
