Cecilia Lay used to live in San Francisco and work in the mission, which meant her happy hour game was strong. Esther Mobley joins Cecilia on Fifth Emission to talk about the challenges local bar owners face now that people like me haven't resumed our bar hopping habits. After endearing years of pandemic uncertainty and changing COVID restrictions, how will their businesses survive? Will the bar culture in the Bay Area ever bounce back; and more importantly, will I ever get my happy hour mojo back?
