The only place on Earth with an aquarium, a planetarium, a natural history museum, and a 4-story rainforest all under one roof! The Morrison Planetarium is the largest all-digital dome in the world. Mehr erfahren.
This is my favorite place to take out-of-town guests. The bath house ruins are amazing as is the view of the Pacific and the Golden Gate Bridge. #^_^# Mehr erfahren.
A part of the Golden Gate National Recreation Area. A romantic and scenic spot to capture the Golden Gate Bridge and watch the bay and ocean come together.
Did you know? The treacherously rocky coastline of Lands End has been the site of ten shipwrecks over the years – three of which are still visible at low tide. Mehr erfahren.
Ocean Beach is home to the Sand Castle Classic in late Sept./early Oct. Teams of architects, building and design firms, and Bay Area children create amazing sand sculptures.Powered by ParentsConnect Mehr erfahren.
Fort Point was ostensibly built to protect SF from Confederate attack. Few places are more thrilling to kids than abandoned military forts. They're dark, spooky, and perfect for hide and seek. Mehr erfahren.
Go to Toast. Eat breakfast for dinner. It is much quieter in the evenings and trying to go for brunch is just crazy.
It's the oldest restaurant in San Francisco, but the seafood is some of the freshest in town. Not even a fire can keep the old fella down for long. [Eater 38 Member] Mehr erfahren.
I always go in wanting to try another item from their wide selection of vegetarian sandwiches, but I ALWAYS defer to the Vegan Handsome Owl! Sweet teriyaki, spicy wasabi, yes!
Sweet little book shop in the Mission with helpful staff. The selection of used books makes for great browsing but is not the best if you have a particular something in mind.
Go to Hot Cookie on Castro and Market. If you like being adventurous, get a Cocoa Cayenne. If you love macaroons and penis, get a chocolate covered penis on a stick. Oh, Castro
Great tastings. Heads up, groups of 5 or more people need to make a reservation.
Beeeeeeeeeer. Comfort food is great, but the quality is meh. This place feels authentic and community-driven
their New Orleans-style iced coffee is the perfect complement to your Saturday morning outing in the East Bay
Mac & cheese! Plus there was a consensus among our party that they liked the chicken here better than at Brown Sugar Kitchen.
Yes the burgers are incredible, but the sides can't be stopped! Get manly fries, sweet potato fries and onion rings!!! Also, ask for lettuce and roasted tomatoes as most burgers don't come with them
These are probably the best Chinese noodles I have ever eaten! Get them with sesame or szechuan style if you like it hot!
I thought I was on the Jungle Cruise at Disneyland! This place is soooo much fun, the decor is a blast. Makes me feel like i'm finally on vacation in a nice tropical environment.
Definitely try for the lottery that happens 2-2.5 hrs before showtime--you have the chance to win discounted front row center tickets! Thanks SHN!
Best ice cream ever! Make sure to try all the flavors. Employees are super friendly and prices are reasonable!
Every coffee drink here is great, like at all Blue Bottle locations, but this has the Kyoto Iced Coffee, which is a must try for any coffee lover. Pour a bit of cream, no stir, no sugar. Smooooooth.
I would order Gibraltar, a coffee drink that is highly milky version of espresso in a shot glass. It is not on the menu but it is way awesome not to try it.
Self-taught baker Meg Ray has taken the Parisian patisserie as inspiration for her dainty shop and repertoire of exquisite cakes and pastries.
Opening in 1898, The Marketplace provides a distinctive space for bringing together the greater Bay Area's agricultural wealth and renowned specialty food purveyors under one roof.
This beats just about any homemade ice cream you have ever had. Imagine Kelvin (the ice cream machine that is) turn milk and other ingredients into ice cream right in front of your eyes. In 1 minute!
This is the ice cream shop referenced in the Pixar movie "Up"! Try the cookie dough ice cream.
Get the Chicken & Waffles! Two cornmeal waffle halves with brown sugar butter, and apple cider syrup. they also gave me 2 pieces of chicken including a breast and a leg and I love those! :)
The deep dish restores our faith in pies that, who are we kidding, should really be considered casseroles. Their cornmeal crust is light but sturdy enough to stand up to an inch-deep pile of toppings. Mehr erfahren.
Their ice cream-making is magical--from liquid to ice cream in a matter of minutes using liquid nitrogen (you pay $ for it!). Seasonal and locally-sourced ingredients and flavors keep me coming back!
A vegetarian's dream--one type of thin-crust pizza per day (reducing their waste!) that is made of fresh, delicious, locally-sourced, seasonal ingredients. Love love love.
Pineapple Fried Rice! Tom-Yum if you're feeling soupy Mango w/ sticky rice or Fried Banana w/ coconut ice cream for dessert!
The patio is one of my favorite places EVER. Local beers, yummy pizzas, live music, whimsical lights strewn about the arbor, what's not to love.
Thursday Nights Nightlife at the Academy of Sciences. Bars open and 21+.
Adults, leave your kids at home on the first Thursday of every month and take a date to After Dark, the Exploratorium's night exclusively for adults. There's a new theme every month and a cash bar! Mehr erfahren.
Beautiful views and lovely nature spots! Matt Davis trail to steep ravine from Stinson Beach. Bahiker.com
Swing by this outdoor shack for a to-go order from the tremendous variety of oysters, or bring your own wine and charcoal for oceanside grilling and dining.
One of California's if not America's premier cheese makers. Go on a Friday to take the tour and learn about cheese curds…fascinating. -Yigit Pura, Top Chef Just Desserts
Amazing food and friendly staff. Get the grilled cheese and the pineapple upside down cake. 😎
Once you get the daily passcode online, walk into a dark moulin-rouge setting and have yourself the finest cocktails around. This place is the french laundry of bars, good luck getting in. -Yigit Pur
Great place to camp or start your backpacking/hiking journey down the Lost Coast trail!
