Andytown Coffee Roasters

my favorite place for coffee & matcha in the city! they have a couple locations but this one on Great Hwy is my fav! I strongly recommend trying one of their Snowy Plover drinks—made with sparkling water instead of milk!

The best happy hour!

The Dorian
@sydneysmith
$6 Martinis!!! Also highly recommend the Don Juan. The mini chicken sliders are sooo good! & only $5 each! I recommend making it spicy. Also you can’t go wrong with truffle fries.

If you’re able to, go to Battery Spencer and get a great view of the Golden Gate Bridge. If you don’t have access to a car/don’t want to Uber, there are others spots to view the bridge from.

Best Sunday Farmer’s Market!

If you have a kitchen I recommend going to the pasta tent, getting the lobster ravioli, the truffle gnocchi and the truffle sauce & making that at home. Head to the other tents to grab some veggies for a salad to make your dinner at home!

I recommend staying out of the area known as the “Tenderloin” and the area around the Civic Center. It’s very touristy, but can also be unsafe.
