Filled with department stores and upscale stores like Macy's, Bloomingdale's, Louis Vuitton, Apple, and food places like California Pizza Kitchen and Pinkberry! Also a good place to people watch.
Huge portion sizes in the family style options. Family Style 2 is enough for 4 people. Unlimited Korean appetizers, and kimchi fried rice is amazing! Waiters are attentive and polite, too!
$10 entrance fee per car, but well worth the beautiful drive along the coast. A visitor's map of all the attractions is provided.
This place is perfect, especially with its picnic area and scenic views. This beach in particular is known for its stacked rocks. Weekends can be crowded.
This place is where Chinese immigrant fishermen used to make their homes. Now, it's a great place to climb the rocks and has scenic views of the coast.
Check out the sales racks for great discounts on designer brands. They also have a large selection of petite and plus size women's clothing on the second floor!
This trail is approximately 3.9 miles and should take around 3 hours to complete. This would be best for a beginner-intermediate hiker.
Almost everything is $1.50, and come here for quality Japanese merchandise at discounted prices, especially their bowls! Also, they have a large selection of unique hi-chew and pocky flavors.
Check out Santouka Ramen and Matcha Love while browsing the store's wide selection of Japanese goods. But beware of lines; this place gets crowded on weekends.
A hidden gem within SF. Also, come at around sunrise or sunset and go all the way up to Grand View Park to get awesome panoramic shots.
Used to come here a lot as a kid, and I highly recommend the concrete slide (bring cardboard to slide down) and the carousel! This is apparently the oldest public playground in the US.
Amazing records selection and one of the coolest hidden gems in SF! You can also head to Golden Gate Park afterwards!
With its roots in SF, no wonder it's known as the most hipster bubble tea place. You can't go wrong with Horchata Boba or Hong Kong Style Boba.
Stunning panoramic views of the city, and a cute spot for dates! On your way up, you'll also be able to walk up the 16th Ave Tiled Steps!
Grab the Magner's Hard Cider on tap, or a Long Island. They also have an interesting confessional booth which I imagine has quite a few interesting stories.
Korean fusion restaurant. Kamikaze fries are a must and be prepared for a long wait.
I waited for only 5 minutes with an appointment to renew my license. This DMV has the shortest wait times even without an appointment!
The shoe section is a hidden gem with some great styles if you look. Check out the LC by Lauren Conrad for flattering fits! Items are usually always "discounted", so keep this in mind before buying.
Call ahead to make an appointment with KIM. She is one of the best barbers I've ever gone to, but the others are hit or miss. Also, haircuts are discounted on Wednesdays.
Try the scallion pancakes, which are different from the typical Chinese version. This place is vegan and vegetarian friendly, and serves no real meat. Food is best split family-style.
Milkcow is a soft serve chain that is popular in Seoul. Music is K-pop, and there are a lot of Korean decorations. Get Almond Dream or the Honeycomb flavor! Anything cotton candy is popular too.
Great Hawaiian food, but bubble tea is subpar. It's good for working, and the free wifi (Pearl Cafe) password is "pearl999"
There are so many shoes it can be overwhelming. Check out the clearance and sale sections at the back for amazing deals on brand name shoes.
Free clam chowder samples all the way down the wharf! It also has quite a few tourist shops, whale watching, seafood restaurants, and a man with parrots near the end of the wharf.
