San Francisco’s Eagle Tavern closes

Two weeks ago, we told you first that Dallas Eagle co-owner Mark Frazier was in negotiations to become co-owner of the landmark San Francisco leather bar Eagle Tavern, and last week we

reported that Frazier had dropped his bid to buy the bar because of the landlord’s plan to drastically increase the rent on the property.

Now comes word, via the San Francisco Examiner, that after 30 years, the bar has closed its doors, as of last Saturday night, April 30.

The Examiner reports that bar manager Ron Hennis has “expressed interest in ownership but declined requests for an interview and said in a Facebook message that he won’t discuss ongoing negotiations.”
