  2. Cafe Claude

    Café Claude's curving zinc bar is straight out of Paris, as is the wait staff -- and if you speak the language, you can order your coq au vin in French.

    Hidden on tiny Claude Lane between Union Square and the financial district, this atmospheric restaurant and bar is perfect for lunch, a quick glass of Cote du Rhone or a relaxing weekend jazz brunch.

    You'll feel just like you're in 17th Arrondissement, minus the jet lag.

  4. Musée Mécanique

    Musée Mécanique wraps just about every wonderful bit of San Francisco into one FREE package: It’s quirky, colorful, historic, thought-provoking and incredibly entertaining.

    Listen as “Laffin Sal” giggles -- she moved here from her original homes at Playland at the Beach and the Cliff House. Swing with “Susie the Can-Can Dancer” -- who will both titillate and amuse you.

  5. Vesuvio Cafe

    Across Kerouac Alley from City Lights Bookstore remains a living historical monument to the Beat Generation: Vesuvio Cafe.

    Back in the mid-fifties, the real life Dean Moriarty of Kerouac's 'On the Road' stopped at Vesuvio for a drink before heading over to Allen Ginsberg's Six Gallery poetry reading. In 2008, not much has changed.

  6. Savoy Tivoli

    Once a "beatnik" hangout, later a great place to catch punk bands including The Ramones and Jim Carroll, Savoy Tivoli was also the first home for the cast of Beach Blanket Babylon. Today, Savoy Tivoli is a quiet streetside bar with patio seating and an interior bar featuring pool tables as well as gorgeous Art Deco light fixtures.

  7. Clement Street

    Clement Street is San Francisco's "other Chinatown" -- a thriving neighborhood in the Inner Richmond district.

  8. Golden Gate Bridge lookout

    One of the best spots to observe the Golden Gate Bridge from is small viewpoints on Conzelman Road. Take the last exit along Hwy 101 going south or first exit after you have crossed the bridge heading north.

  9. Palace of the Legion of Honor

    The Legion of Honor, San Francisco's most beautiful museum, displays an impressive collection of 4,000 years of ancient and European art in an unforgettable setting overlooking the Golden Gate Bridge. Built to commemorate Californian soldiers who died in World War I, the Legion of Honor is a beautiful Beaux-arts building located in San Francisco's Lincoln Park.

  10. Headlands Hostel

    The absolute best - okay, cheap and creative - place to sleep when visiting San Francisco. A 5 minute drive from the Golden Gate Bridge, The Marin Headlands Hostel is located in a historic setting (old military quarters), nestled within a grove of Eucalyptus trees, steps from Rodeo Beach (good surfing) and a short walk to the edge of the world at the Point Bonita Light House.
