A 9 minute Muni rail ride from Trinity Place. Walk inside and try having just one treat. Below are some of our top recs, let us know if you agree!

Coffee first: what better way to kick start your day than with San Francisco’s best, Blue Bottle (available every day) and Sightglass (Saturdays, Farmer’s Market).

Oysters

“Best clam chowder in the Bay” is quite a statement and one made by several Yelpers. Though a bit touristy and no reservations, Hog Island is still a must.  Clams, oysters,  yummy drinks to pair with (including a killer Bloody Mary), more clams and oysters, and a gorgeous view of the Bay, this is an island worth stickin’ around.
