World-famous morning buns and croque monsieurs. Grab a table outside, order coffee, and ease into the day. 4.5★ Google (5,854 reviews).

Tip: Go early (before 10:30 AM) to avoid the line.

11:30 AMactivity

Pottery Class (Pottery Cool, Hayes Valley)

Tip: Wear clothes you don't mind getting clay on. The studio provides aprons, but water splashes.

Budget Breakdown

Lodging (3 nights, split 8 ways)$375
Activities (food tour, art class, walking tour)$280
Dining (3 dinners + breakfasts)$320
Nightlife (speakeasy, rooftop cocktails, transport)$305
Per Person$1,280

Pack This

  • Comfortable walking shoes (you'll do 2+ miles on the food tour and SFMOMA walk)
  • Light jacket or cardigan (September fog rolls in at dusk)
  • One elevated outfit for Foreign Cinema (dress code is smart casual; think linen, silk, or a nice blouse)
  • Pottery-friendly clothes (clay stains — wear something you don't mind getting dirty)
  • Sunglasses and SPF (September sun is strong, especially on rooftops)
  • A small crossbody bag or clutch for nightlife (hands-free for cocktails)
  • Comfortable heels or flats for the rooftop bar (you'll be standing and dancing)
  • Phone charger (for photos and Ubers)
  • Reusable water bottle (stay hydrated between tastings and cocktails)

Pro Tips

  • September in SF is perfect — warm days (70–75°F), cool nights, and zero rain. Pack layers; the fog rolls in at dusk.
  • Wylie's an Aesthete, so every detail matters. Snap photos at golden hour (around 7:30 PM) — the light on the Mission's murals and rooftops is unreal.
  • Book Foreign Cinema and Trick Dog at least 2 weeks ahead. Both fill up fast in September.
  • The Mission is walkable but hilly — wear comfortable shoes for the food tour. Bring a light jacket for evening.
  • Uber/Lyft surge pricing hits hard after 10 PM on weekends. Use rideshare to get to Smuggler's Cove, then walk or Uber to Charmaine's (it's in your hotel).
  • SFMOMA's rooftop is free with admission and stunning mid-morning. Go early to avoid crowds.
  • Assign a photographer for Day 2 dinner and the rooftop pre-game. These are the moments you'll want forever.
  • Have everyone Venmo the treasurer by Day 2 morning so there's no awkwardness at checkout.

Group Logistics

Transport: Rideshare (Uber XL or 2 regular Ubers) for Day 1 food tour pickup/dropoff (~$20–30 total). Day 2: Walk to Foreign Cinema from Proper Hotel (15 min, flat route). Uber to Smuggler's Cove (~$15–20), then walk or Uber to Charmaine's (5 min walk or $8–12 Uber). Day 3: Uber to Mama's on Washington Square (~$12–18). Estimated transport total: $60–80 per person for the trip.

Nightlife Strategy: Night 1 (Day 1): Low-key. Trick Dog is a reservation-only cocktail bar — book 2+ weeks ahead. Arrive by 9:15 PM. Night 2 (Day 2): THE big night. Start at Smuggler's Cove (arrive 9:00–9:15 PM, expect a 15–20 min wait for a group of 8) for one round of craft cocktails. Then Uber to Charmaine's Rooftop at Proper Hotel (your hotel, so no transport stress). Charmaine's has a smart-casual dress code — no athletic wear. No cover charge, but expect $12–18 per cocktail. Budget $35/person for the rooftop night.
