This dive bar in the Mission has everything: cheap beer, pool, live music most nights, karaoke on Wednesdays, ping pong on (most) Thursdays, a huge back patio, and is very LGBTQ friendly. Some nights they have a food vendor on the patio. This place has some great vibes and really awesome people.

SF classic - wonderful neighborhood bar with a beautiful outside garden in the back. One of the first and last remaining lesbian bars, it is open to all and definitely worth sitting out back or playing a game of pool.

Parks & Nature

Dolores Park is every reason to come to The Mission. Whether it’s cloudy or sunny, weekend or weekday, you’ll always find people relaxing in this park. With a $20.6 million renovation recently completed, San Francisco’s favorite park is completely reopened with new restrooms, renovated tennis and basketball courts, improved disability access, and a new overlook in the southwest corner. Locals of all ages gather at this outdoor hot spot for picnics, tanning, and people-watching. Enjoy an ice cream at the ever popular Bi-Rite Creamery or nearby Bi Rite Grocery to grab a picnic!

Mesmerizing, must, must visit to a zen park. Absolutely gorgeous the heights & size of the beautiful trees or the fresh smell of the forest, streams flowing & birds chirping. There are easy walk, hike loops with wheelchair accessibility. This is a small paradise very close to SF across the bay. The scenery is unique you'll come away with an obscene amount of beautiful photos. It is necessary to book a slot for parking a car or a spot on the shuttle bus to get to Muir Woods. The parking lot costs $9. You can book tickets online to avoid wait times! NOTE. There is NO internet service in the park. Screen shot your tickets before arriving.

A ferry ride across the bay from San Francisco ferry building & weekend farmers market sets a gem of a town, Sausalito. Well worth the minor cost of the ferry ride ($16 RT) to quaint shops and restaurants. Make it a must journey while visiting San Francisco. You will see Alcatraz Island & Golden Gate Bridge during the crossing of the bay.

Food Scene

Good restaurants that I have regularly gone to & recommend at different price levels. Mission district is known for its diversity in people, food & live music.
A modern Nepali restaurant with beautiful decor in the Mission, 5 blocks away. Food is authentic, diverse with Indian flavors at an affordable price that you won't find anywhere. Food is amazing, affordable, generous, and quick. Lots of good vegetarian options. Particular highlights are the momos, onion fritters, kale d palek chaats, mushroom chili, cashew curry, butter chicken, and goat curry with garlic naans & steamed buns.

Tartine Manufactory is a must-visit brunch spot for anyone looking for delicious baked goods and hearty breakfast dishes. Baked bread fills the air, tempting you to indulge in all of the pastry offerings. I highly recommend their croissants, which are flaky and buttery. But the star is definitely their bread, which is baked fresh every day and has a crispy crust with a soft and chewy interior. You can even purchase a loaf to take home with you. Savory dishes, the smoked salmon was a standout, perfectly balanced flavor thats paired well with the cream cheese and bagel. The brisket hash with steak is also a crowd-pleaser. Great ambience for breakfast or brunch.

Great views and seats on the water. One of the only places in San Francisco with water-front seating. Standard bar/pub food and beer with average SF prices. Fish & chips, salmon, calamari and clam chowder in a bread bowl & french toast. The best bloody Mary's in SF. Gets busy with the brunch crowd.

One of the best Sushi/Nigiri experiences ever. Very creative techniques to bring out bold and unique flavors. Favorites were the Wagyu, Soy Cured Fatty Tuna, Amberjack and Soy Cured Salmon. Miso soup as well. Very pricey but worth the experience. Expensive, but fantastic quality! Easily some of the best fish in any context, hands down. $$$ 100$ per person
