Eat, drink, and crawl your way to a delicious Saturday in SF.
On November 8, we’re partnering with Bon Appétit for its 3rd annual Grub crawl in San Francisco.
The moveable feast will take your tastebuds on a tour of two of our favorite foodie neighborhoods, Hayes Valley and the Mission. From the cantina-style eateries and cocktails in Hayes, to wood-fired pizza and hand-picked wine in the Mission, this Saturday will be a delight for any San Franciscan with a peripatetic palette and a sense of culinary adventure.
Tickets are on sale for both the afternoon and evening sessions. If you still need convincing, check out the tasty lineups below (click on the names for more info):

EVENING CRAWL: MISSION/SOMA
KICK OFF PARTY – TACOLICIOUS AND MOSTO

We’re sure you’ll be too hungry before, and too satisfied afterward, to think about how you’re getting to and from the crawl, so let Uber take care of your ride.
