Things to Do & Stay

Stay

• The Westin San Francisco Airport

  In Millbrae, minutes from Green Hills, with an SFO shuttle — the most convenient landing spot for the weekend.

• Aloft San Francisco Airport

  A relaxed, well-priced stay just up the road from the venue, also with an airport shuttle.

• The Mosser Hotel

  A budget-friendly historic hotel steps from Union Square, for those staying in the city.

• Beacon Grand

  A 1928 Union Square classic, beautifully renewed — the best value in San Francisco.

• Palace Hotel

  A San Francisco landmark since 1875 — upscale without being out of reach.

Eat

• Arsicault Bakery

  Our favorite bakery in the city — the croissants are worth every minute of the line.

• Butter & Crumble

  We waited out the famous North Beach line together, and we'd do it again.

• Breadbelly

  The scene of one of our first dates.

• Burma Love

  Our first date was at Burma Love.

• Tartine Manufactory

  We come for the sourdough pizza and the beef tartare.

• Pausa Bar & Cookery

  Our go-to in San Mateo for charcuterie and handmade pasta.

• Saap Ver

  The most authentic Thai food in the city, in our opinion.

See

• Montara Mountain Trail · Pacifica

  A beautiful, shaded climb with a generous payoff at the top.

• Sweeney Ridge Trail · Pacifica

  A ridgeline walk with sweeping views of the whole Bay.

• Tomales Point · Point Reyes

  Hike to the very tip — Pacific views so vast it feels like standing at the end of the world.

• Domaine Eden · Saratoga

  A wonderful hike through the Saratoga mountains that ends with a glass of chardonnay.
