Karl’s Beacon is my new favorite bar. There’s not many places in the Sunset where you feel welcomed right away. The bartenders were amazing and moved very fast. Shannon was so damn cool and friendly!

Love Shannon, she is the best bartender!! So sweet and personable. When I go to a bar I want to be welcomed the way she did.

Avoid Selfish bartender that only cares about her tip. I was completely ignored until I was given the buns rush out so I didn't tip . And was cussed out when I left. If you are going to only take care of regulars and spread neighborhood gossip you can't go cuss out a patron on a single beer.

Before Karl’s, this spot was called Dragon Lounge. Dragon Lounge was so freaking creepy, you always had a weird vibe at this bar. And now after Karl’s, it’s a total 180. Bad vibes are gone, this place is the local watering hole

First time I could go out after my 21st, came with my partner who doesn't drink often. When asked what we want, we asked what they had. His response "first time in a bar?" We then got ignored, and later told to go up to the bar when we figured out what we wanted. Was excited after seeing how it seemed busy inside, totally ruined the mood.

Found the staff, especially Shannon the bartender, to be very rude and unprofessional. Not sure how this business is still open if this is how customers are treated

Get rid of the aggressive bigot barmaid Shannon and this could be a nice bar, no fun going into a bar that has a psycho that challenges you when all you asked for was a drink, plenty of witnesses too,
