Friday, October 18, 2019
SAN FRANCISCO (KGO) -- It's almost time for last call at Sam Jordan's Bar and Grill in the Bayview.

Sam's is the oldest African-American owned bar in San Francisco.

But it's been struggling financially.

The owners say they tried happy hour specials, live music - even landmark status.

After 60 years, Sam Jordan's will serve its final customers on November 2.
