__________
Butter Bar & Restaurant (Butter) opened on May 21, 1999. Butter was created by brothers Carlton and Chris Solle, who were two of San Francisco’s top house music promoters and leaders in the verging electronic music and dance industry that has since established itself as the global standard. During their nightlife promoting efforts, they developed the concept for a cozy theme bar that would be a home to the city’s nightlife community and for the industry’s DJs, promoters and producers to have a place they could call their own.
The brothers purchased Bee’s Kitchen, a long time Chinese restaurant, and secured a long-term lease under the name Pure Entertainment LLC. In 2003, the Solle Brothers decided to pursue other adventures and turned over ownership of Butter to their partners.
The business is located on the west side of 11th Street between Folsom and Harrison Streets in the South of Market neighborhood. It is within a WMUO (WSOMA Mixed Use-Office) Zoning District.
