Willy Wonka's Watering Hole?

Beginner

On the street where Nelson Mandela's party Nestlés inside the nickname Herb Caen said you're not supposed to call our fair city , you'll find a place whose name is a term of endearment, a version of which could describe Willy Wonka's products. Who knows, you might even run into him knocking one back here after a hard day at the chocolate factory.

Sweetie's is a delightful hole-in-the-wall tucked away on a side street. It's owned by Flicka McGurrin, who also owns Pier 23 Cafe. The bartender George passes out chocolate bars to customers when he's on duty.

I believe, if memory serves me (I'm writing this two years after the fact) that GUINNESS was on the third tap. But, if they were closed, here's what was on hand outside:
