Great place to watch soccer matches, especially the World Cup or the Euro Cup. Kinda divey, good fish n chips served with a British attitude.
Need to hack together a new project? Come to Silicon Valley's graveyard for a handful of rare earth magnets and who knows what else.
Not into the fancy Palo Alto scene? Head up alpine to the Alpine Inn. Not so great food, a huge back yard, patio, and lots of cyclists. OH. AND A TRON MACHINE.
On you way back from Appke, hike up to "The Dish" and have a nice look at Silicon Valley.
Cheap, great sushi near Apple. Chirachi bowl is always a favorite and they will substitute fish that you don't like.
In Cupertino a lot for business? Try this Japanese tapas place. Don't have smelly feet, you might need to take off your shoes!
