  • Cathedral of St Mary of the Assumption (especially the Sound Meditation sessions)
  • Japan Town, especially the Kabuki theater and mall (great place to find gifts / souvenirs)

Things to eat

  • Bi-Rite Creamery Ice Cream
  • Nopa

  • Lolinda (Amazing Steakhouse)
  • El Techo (Great views of the city)
  • dumplings at Yank Sing
  • Foreign Cinema (plays foreign black and white)

Things to Drink

  • Bourbon and Branch (nifty cocktails, no food)
  • Alembic (Great cocktails, small plate food)
  • Comstock
  • Chambers (Great cocktails)
  • Trick Dog (Great cocktails)
  • Get a Mai Tai at the Tonga Room & Hurricane Bar

Things you have to plan way in advance (30+days)

  • Nopa
  • Alcatraz
  • Dinners on Friday and Saturday.

Places you shouldnt go unless you absolutely want to.

  • 16th and mission bart stop
  • Fishermans Wharf.
  • Tenderloin

General advice

  • Never understimate the difficulty of having a car in San Francisco. It's almost always easier / cheaper to use Lyft, Muni, bikes, and/or BART to get around within the city than to pay for a rental car and parking. The city is also very pedestrian friendly, walking is usually the best option for trips of less than a mile or so.
