San Francisco

I visited from the East Coast and decided to grab some drinks and food with a couple locals. The loaded nachos are hands down the best I've ever had! Just make sure to add the pulled pork on top!

What a nice place for morning eating! It can be chaotic if you wait for a table, as there seems to be no system for putting your name down on a list or anything. Wait time for food was not a problem on our first visit, pretty long wait for our second time. Breakfast board is good, lets you customize. Pastries and coffee are also very good.

Recommended by a hotel staff at Parc 55. They were crazy busy for breakfast, but said the wait should be 5-10, no more than 15 min. I was skeptical but we were seated within 10mins. Food was awesome especially the fruit salad, it was real fruit cut up fresh. Staff was all nice and attentive even though it was busy.

Killer coffee, great pastries, wonderful vibe. I have made at least 4 long-term friends in the place, and it is the standard for coffee in SF for me. The affogato is amazing, and the cappuccino is best-in-class. I joke with friends that it is my favorite provider of coffee, art, and daycare.

Beaux is one of these iconic clubs in San Francisco that you have to experience at least once in your life. Having worked there i can honestly say the whole team is working really hard to make sure everyone is having a great time and i can assure you how much dedicated and caring the managers are for their employees & patrons alike. Beaux benefits of an incredible geography right by the Castro District, it offers a beautiful venue, some amazing cocktails and a soundtrack that will undoubtedly rock you night out. Stop by and see for yourself....

I have had the privilege of experiencing SF Eagle from all different sides, a regular bar patron, working during Folsom and Up Your Alley Weekends, volunteering at coat check and of course hosting and promoting events like a beer bust. Through these experiences I can say wholeheartedly this is one of the best bars in The City. The bar staff are amazing and unique, the kind of people that are instantly your friends. The bar owners are two of the nicest guys I know and they truly care about SOMA, preserving its history and supporting local non-profits. All of that is very rare. I had the privilege of being a loyal customer when it was Eagle Tavern and it was great, yes things were a little cheaper and after the Tavern closed we felt a huge loss. When new ownership stepped up to take on reopening the bar I don’t think that many people realize what they had to do to get it back up to code. The roof had to be replaced, bars and walls rebuilt, in some spots the wiring had literally been pulled out of the wall. One heck of a challenge which they pulled off flawlessly to be this incredible place we can now call home. The bar is constantly growing and improving on itself and I for one am excited to see what the future holds.

If my life was The Suite Life of Zack & Cody, this is the hotel I'd want to live in - and the room I'd want to live in! We had an incredible view from the 38th floor - in fact, as I'm sitting out on the balcony typing this, I can see the Bay Bridge, the bay, and a large portion of the city itself. Were it not for the noise and the cars, you'd be hard-pressed to convince yourself it wasn't a movie set - it looks almost unreal. The wait staff at Poached is so sweet and attentive, and when I asked for a box this morning to take my uneaten yummies for the ride home, he brought me a fresh cup of coffee in a to-go cup, too - kind, smart man! 👍🏻 I'm a little bummed that we have to go home today, but when we come back, I'd definitely stay here again!

Beautiful views are only surpassed by the outstanding service. This is truly one of the best hotels in the city, if not the state. The attention to detail is unequalled in my experience and the Michelin star restaurant is the best of any hotel I have stayed in. Congratulations to the staff and management of the intercontinental, the city is a better place with you in it.

Wonder Con sucks. There was no intention of returning after the first year they left, yet they floated the lie that they were actually going to return to SF. That was just some flim flam to ease the transition. Good riddance. Too much Hollywood hoo ha. I actually like looking at and buying comics. Sadly most local shops avoided the SF Con. They'll be there in the future. Granted I don't have a lot of con experience to compare it to. Enjoyed talking to big name artists at WC. Not so many at SFC. Hopefully that will change. The SFC was fun for this comic fan. The dealers weren't as hard assed to deal with. A friendlier atmosphere over all. Lots of excited kids, families. Hopefully more cosplay in future. It was a good start. Glad it's coming back. Hope it doesn't turn into another Wonder Con.

I've lived in the San Francisco Bay Area Bay Area and have wanted to go the Rock and never had the opportunity or the time. So when my cousin came up from Mexico � and he said he wanted to go I decided to get 2 tickets and go and I have to say that I'm angry at my self for not going sooner I've seen various documentaries on the Island and the prison but seeing it person proves that there is nothing like seeing it person. My next goal is doing the night tour from what I hear it's a little bit better than the day tours.

I went to the Opening of the new Visitors Center. What a great day. Thank you for your warm reception. I was stationed there from August 1969 to January 1971 with Headquarters Sixth Army. It was great to see the Base looking so good. Thank you again,

What a great day at Alcatraz. Did the audio tour on the rock. Met former prison guard from 1950-1958 George DeVincenzi who was there signing his book "Murders on Alcatraz". He is there once a week. We had pre-booked the 10.00am tour online a few months before, which was recommended as my friend missed out because it was booked out on the day she went. The walk up from the cruise boat was a slow process, but I did it with a bit of encouragement from my son. We were told it was equal to climbing 9 flights of stairs. There was a ride called "seat" you could get to the top, which I would recommend if your not too sure about the walk. The audio self paced tour was absolutely great. You could enter cells and take photos. A top day out apart from the rain. *5 stars*

Came with 4th grade school field trip, I ended up being a field trip-per as well. I got so engaged in the mechanical & electrical engineering section that my son ended up coming back for me to remind me we dont have much time & there's more to see! lol the exhibits are so engaging to both young & adults. Lots of hands-on fun, even screamed at the "ghost in your eyes/hands" where you push a button for flashbulb...Much to the delight of the 4th graders seeing parents lining up screaming & giggling! � This is a great place to bring enthusiasm & excitement on STE(A)M. A little sad that our time got cut short. There's a lot to see! Plan for at least a half day trip �

I just recently visited WDFM on my one solo adventure day and I'm so happy I went! So much great history about Walt and the Disney family. I enjoyed learning so much about the journey. It's a lot of information and a lot of cool stuff to look at so I suggest spending some good time here. It was easy for me to get here by public trans too! I can't stop telling my friends about it and how much fun I had!

Our doorman at the Scarlet Huntington hotel always checks in with us as we leave each morning to wish us a great day, yesterday he suggested we go to the ferry building and enjoy the farmers market and all the local, in season, special foods! What a great decisions... shared a lovely lunch and walked down to the wharf after. Thank you James from the Scarlet Huntington, we appreciate your cheerful smile each morning. Stephanie and Doug

Heh Heh, since Facebook asked, yesterday I went to Westfield San Francisco Centre and was really happy to stumble upon the Hanukkah Celebration, I really enjoyed the band, and the decorations for the dome were just gorgeous. I am knocking a star off for a couple things, though. One is that it seems like it's pretty hard for them to keep my favorite stores there. Icing is closed and I only ever managed to get in OdySea once.The other is that they took away the lounge areas on the upper floor which were really nice for enjoying a pretzel or something while power shopping. Also I had a really fun time yesterday watching a junkie with the DT's trying to get the "bugs" out of his shirt. Spoiler alert- there were no bugs. I think the security handsome, well dressed security guard who handled the junkie as gracefully as possible deserves an award. I had some scumbag try to jack my pretzel after I only took one bite of it once but that was a few years ago.

I went for the Amorphis concert and really liked the experience.The venue has a coat check for extra 2 dollars which is great so one can simply leave the coats and jackets in there. The bar is nice, but I felt the beer was watered down, next time I will skip the draft and go with the bottle. Being vegetarian I was impressed with the veggie options, my quesadilla tasted good! The concert experience was very nice since is a small, intimate venue. Candle chandeliers and wood roof add to the experience. The ticketing, entry and food/beverage services were very professional, I will certainly go there again! My only issue with them is they should try to finish band performances by 1130pm so there is plenty of time to take the BART back to east bay. I had to leave the concert 15 minutes early (I SO hate leaving early) to catch the last train.
