Nancy & Davey
Things To Do
Belly
The whole menu is delicious. Korean Cali fries are *chefs kiss*!
California Academy of Sciences
Interesting science museum for all ages. Features an indoor rainforest and beautiful aquarium!
Crispian Bakery
Get there early for the ham and cheese croissant with everything bagel spice, it sells out early! Don't sleep on the lavender latte, Nancy likes it with oat milk.
Exploratorium
Fun for all ages! We came here on one of our first dates in San Francisco.
Grand Lake Theatre
This is a beautiful historic theater in the heart of Oakland! Showtimes listed in green font feature an old-timey organ prelude.
Gray Whale Cove State Beach
An easy hike on the coast with terrific views!
Half Moon Bay
Half Moon Bay is a fun oceanside town on the peninsula. Lot's of cool shops and restaurants. Take a scenic drive up the Pacific Coast Highway and check out the many state beaches. California's Coast is a national treasure!
The Local
Support small businesses! Awesome coffee, great Sunday morning newspaper vibe, and friendly staff.
Muir Woods National Monument
We first visited Muir Woods when Davey travelled out to visit Nancy in the fall of 2015. See some tremendous redwoods and pretend to be on the forest moon of Endor!
Oaktown Spice Shop
We love cooking together, and Davey loves to add a little "heat" to his dishes! This is one of Nancy's favorite places to wander around for inspiration.
Ole's Waffle Shop
Historic classic diner with fresh waffles, fresh squeezed orange juice, and greasy hash browns, YUM. The owners of this restaurant have jumped through hoops to ensure their staff continued to get paid despite closures during the pandemic.
Pacific Pinball Museum
Fun for kids!
Pasta Pelican Restaurant
This is one of our favorite date spots. We have celebrated New Year's Eve here a few times. Nancy's guests may get a Castaway's on Lake Nepessing vibe.
Rock Wall Wine Company
Beautiful view of San Francisco, outdoor seating, and local favorite Scolari's burgers served on site.
Scolari's Good Eats
Local favorite featured on Diners, Drive-ins and Dives. Davey orders the spicy chicken sandwich, and Nancy orders the bacon bleu cheese and blueberry burger. Everyone loves the scampi fries š
Seaview Trail & Big Springs Trail
We have really enjoyed hiking this trail in the East Bay. Terrific views of the Bay Area.
Shan Dong
Best of Chinatown. Be sure to order the special hand pulled noodles. Our favorite dishes are: braised green beans, hot spicy chow mein with hand pulled noodles & shrimp, pork and leek dumplings, onion pancake, and Shandong chicken. Portions are ~huge~ / consider sharing with a friend.
Speisekammer
Have you ever been to a traditional German restaurant? This is one of Davey's favorites, and Nancy loves the kƤsespƤtzle with ham. Regularly features live music - check the website for the current acts!
Sutro Baths Upper Trail
This is one of our favorite places to take out of towners on a short hike, and check out one of the most unique places in San Francisco. The ruins of a beautiful bath house on the beach make for great Instagrams, easy to moderate hiking, and a nice escape from the hustle and bustle of the city. Bring a jacket and stocking hat - the ocean breeze gets chilly.
Trabocco Kitchen and Cocktails
Ok, its in a mall... but the food and drinks are wonderful!
