Neighborhoods
The neighborhood next store is full of character, feel the 'love' vibe while you go in and out of vintage shops and boutiques. You can always stop for cocktails along the way at Zam Zam or Alembic. Magnolia is a great place for a burger and beer. Sightglass for a shot of caffeine.

Walk a little further and you're in NoPa near the famous painted ladies. So much good food here and local shops you could waste a whole afternoon and not get very far. The original NOPA can't be beat, their brunch is the bomb. Bi-rite has some of the best ice cream in the city and The Mill has the best $5 toast you can buy (it really is worth it!). I could go on and on...

What locals know...
San Francisco is one of the most beautiful cities in the world but the weather is fickle. No matter what time of year you visit bring a jacket and extra layers.
It's hilly! And I mean hilly! Not great for heels. Bring your cute comfortable walking shoes for when you're out and about during the day. You'll thank me later.
