Historyedit
It was founded by Sam Jordan, a light-heavyweight boxer and U. S. Navy World War II veteran.[1] Jordan won the championship diamond belt in 1948.[5] For 60 years the bar served as a gathering place for Bayview's community, and it was the oldest black-owned bar in the city.[1] The space served as a bar, a barbecue restaurant, and a nightclub.[5]
Sam Jordan's Bar appeared on the television series Bar Rescue (season 5, episode 8) in 2016, and received a remodel.[1][2][7] It closed in November 2019, after financially struggling for many years.[1]
