Things To Do in SF
Philz Coffee
Philz is an iconic bay area coffee chain with AMAZING iced coffee. Note their coffee is very caffeinated so we usually order "half-caf". For each coffee, they'll ask you for how much sugar and cream you want. If you want a treat, we recommend sweet and creamy, if not, light-light is a great order. Some favorites: - Iced Ecstatic Light Cream and Light Sugar, Half Caf - Mint Mojito
Emporium Arcade Bar
A theatre turned into a bar filled with old time arcade games like Pinball, Mario Kart, Pop-a-Shot and more.
Balboa Cafe
This bar is a well frequented spot for Friday afternoon cocktails. In particular, we recommend their signature Espresso Martinis!
TONGA ROOM & HURRICANE BAR
This truly one of a kind bar used to be the hotel pool of the Fairmont. They turned it into a super fun tiki bar with a live band, fantastic food and amazing cocktails.

Harry's is a great place for a burger, a drink or to watch a football game! Alexander and Lydia went to Harry's and watched Steph Curry score 50 points to knock out the Kings in Game 7 last May!
