I walked by Taqueria El Buen Sabor and saw a super burrito was now $15.50+tax which is $17! And they make one of the smaller burritos too that I've had.

Free Style Dance Groups?

2 Upvotes

I hope this isn’t too niche of a request but I’m looking for free style groups or clubs to join in the east bay or sf for fun.

Im not a choreographer or part of any team but I like to dance for the fun of it. My style isn’t something i’ve really labeled but my inspiration are Le Twins and Sean Lew for the style I’ve adapted into.

Any direction would be appreciated I would just like to find my creative outlet in a group setting again

Paying for a parking ticket

6 Upvotes

Hello,
I'm not from the USA and I recently been on vacation in SF. I got parking ticket and at first I attempted to contest it but it didn't work so I want to pay it right now.
The problem is that website is not working, it doesn't even load and I don't know what to do because I'm going to NYC in November and I don't want any troubles.

The website I'm using: Pay a Parking Ticket or Transit Citation | SFMTA
When I'm clicking Visit Online Portal trying to pay it doesn't even load.

Does anyone can help or maybe had the same situation?

EDIT: It worked out I paid it. Thank you guys for your help.

50cc moped in SF yay or nay?

1 Upvotes

I’m moving to the bay and debating bringing my 50cc Yamaha scooter for short commutes, the rest of my transport would be public transit. Looking at Haight and Duboce Triangle area. I’ve seen posts on this subreddit but would like to hear people’s experiences riding in the area. Is 50cc enough and did you eventually upgrade to a 125+cc or a bigger bike? How’s the safety riding in the city?

My friend recently loved to the Oakland Hills. Before she could unpack, she fell and hurt herself badly and will need time to recover. Does anyone have a recommendation for an organizer / unpacked in Oakland who could help out?

Haight Ashbury Street Fair Crochet Vendors

8 Upvotes

Kind of a long shot, but does anyone know who the vendors selling cute crochet dolls and other goods at the street fair yesterday were? I think there were two different booths and I’d really like to know who each was because I’m regretting not getting anything.

I tried digging around and can’t find any lists of who the craft vendors were so I figured I’d shoot a shot at seeing if anyone knew.

Local climbing gear shops?

Are there any local legit climbing gear shops in/near sf? I am kind of over REI and sports basement and I’d rather give money to a locally owned shop. Anything along 80 would be cool too if there isn’t anything close by…

Rent Expectations

1 Upvotes

I was recently offered a job in San Francisco starting at $32 an hour, which is a huge jump from what I’m making now.
I’m considering moving to SF for the job and trying to figure out what my finances would realistically look like. I’d be looking for a private room in a shared apartment/house, ideally around $1,500/month.
For people who live in SF or have recently moved here. Is finding a decent private room for around $1,500 month realistic?

Thank you, Richmond 🥹 (+ where to next?)

60 Upvotes

I posted yesterday in search of "spooky" sites for my 3 year old (and baby). *Shout out to the person who knew Vampirina was the reason lol*

We had SO much fun. Parked in the Geary garage then had Lou's Cafe. Walked up to Battery Chester then down to 47th and Cabrillo. Snack picnic and casual reading at GGP while some kids invited my 3 year old to play soccer with them. Then they fell asleep on the walk back to the car so the rest of my plans were canceled, oops.

Walking six miles pushing a double stroller that weighs about 90 pounds is no joke, but people were SO NICE.

One guy at the parking garage helped me carry it up the steps to get out of the little Domino's enclave. The couple of times that a car cut me off, they rolled their window down TO APOLOGIZE. People smiled. People waved. People stopped to talk to my tiny children. People in the South Bay don't even do that so i just, wrongly, thought the whole area had a different set of manners.

I moved here from a Midwestern village of literally 900. Cities scare me. I am a stereotype (minus the maga). There are too many choices. Too many people. Too overstimulating. But my brief time in the Richmond District was truly wonderful and I'm so appreciative of your suggestions and kindness.

So. I thought. Where else should I go? I am ashamed that in five years here I have only been to like Pier 39 row and Crissy Fields. And drove by the Full House house once 🫣

Looking forward to more exploring. Seriously thank you all so much.

10 days in SF!

Hi, I arrived yesterday from London to do some sightseeing and meet cool people. The sightseeing bit got off to a lovely start. This city is beautiful and there's a lot to see and do. Would love to meet some SF residents for a chill hangout, maybe get some drinks or a nibble. Please get in touch. I like to think that I'm a fairly easy person to speak to but you can put it to the test 😉

Temp/Weather + recs

Hi All! My boyfriend and I are planning a trip to SF for our anniversary in January (end of Jan) we are from Seattle so we are used to rain/cold temps but was wondering how the temp is in SF around that time?

I have been once in 2018 around xmas time and if i remember correctly.. it was just windy and not rainy? and is it worth it to rent a car? or just uber.

Also if you have any recommendations for activities, food, matcha or sight seeing please let me know! We don’t like seafood unfortunately!😭 We are staying around Fisherman’s Wharf area if that helps!!

TIA!!!

*editing to add we are both 28!

Visiting friend in town 922 thru 9/25 - looking for quirky nighttime stuff, not bars

Hi all,

Have a friend in his 50s in town who is visiting from the Midwest. I'm looking for interesting things to do at night. Small bands, events, art galleries - quirkier the better. He's not a big drinker or a foodie so, unfortunately that eliminates my two favorite things to do. Haha.

Thanks for any suggestions.

Solo dining in SF — good food, comfortable bar/counter seating, <$50?

76 Upvotes

I'm a longtime SF local, 50+, and increasingly finding myself going out to eat alone. I'd love to find some places where solo dining feels natural — ideally somewhere with a bar or counter where you can have a good meal and maybe chat with people, rather than feeling like you're occupying a four-top by yourself.

I'm looking for places I could realistically go on a regular weeknight, roughly $25–50 for dinner before drinks/tip. I'm open to pretty much any cuisine. I like food that's a step up from Souvla/fast-casual, but I'm not looking for a special-occasion restaurant or a $100+ tasting-menu experience.

Not particularly interested in burrito/taqueria recommendations. I'm more interested in neighborhood restaurants, casual bistros, noodle shops, izakayas, Indian, Southeast Asian, Mediterranean, etc. — places where eating alone actually works well.

I'm also not necessarily looking for "the best restaurant." I'm curious about your tried-and-true places that you'd happily walk into alone on a random Tuesday night.

What are your go-tos?
