We loved coming back to our old haunts here in Fisherman's Wharf. There is so much to see and the food is outstanding. Despite COVID we made our way back and the atmosphere didn't disappoint. There are a bunch of great restaurants to choose from for breakfast, lunch and dinner. All are great.

For us we spent so much time down here. Most trips started from here eg Muir woods, or Alkatraz. That we thought why on earth did most reviews suggest Union Square? Maybe if you like shopping but even that was underwhelming. For us we found nothing great about Union Square except for the little cable car which we took to (You guessed it) the wharf! There are SO many eateries down here and a nice walk to the famous Pier 39 or in the other direction and you can see the bridge in the distance. Coming from Australia we couldn't find many breakfast/brunch spots but we still managed to find something - ihop for example. It was our first time in San Fran and we loved it. we spend 5 days.

Although still a tourist attraction it is not what it once was. The famous Alioto's Restaurant is closed and Fisherman's Grotto soon will be. We did have bread chowder bowls for lunch and walked along the water's edge. We stumbled upon on took a 2 hour boat tour on the Bay called Bridge to Bridge. It was a beautiful clear sunny day with mild wind. A surprise for December.

The Fisherman’s Wharf is one of the places to visit in San Fransisco. You can spend almost all day over there by shopping, sittin and having somethings at the restaurants and bars. You can also have many choices to take pictures and learning much about the history of San Fransisco marine commerce.

Lots of things to see and do here. Easily spent 4 hours here and it was clean and safe and had tons to do. If I had kids with me, I could probably spend more time even. This was a must go for a first time here.

Locals hate it and there's a lot of hype, but it's a really enjoyable way to spend half a day, or a day, just walking around, eating and shopping. For us, this was the first return visit after more than ten years, so it was nice to be back. Beware bad restaurants at Pier 39, such as The Hook (B-01). Prices are deceptive, but it's not good value and in fact some of the food was downright awful. But do try Chioppino's. Great service and delicious food.

You see it in the movies, so it's on your wish list when on a Californian road trip. It appears very run down, could do with a lick of paint and updating. Restaurants and shops are ok. Theres a bakery there and the smell of the bread being baked was lovely.

One thing I need to point out is that fisherman‘s wharf is not that close to Ghirardelli square we thought we could walk it but we decided to take a quick cab over to it. Also we ate at Ghirardelli Square, and I wish we would’ve waited because there’s so many more options at fisherman‘s wharf. It is a seafood lover‘s Paradise

Does not give the authentic feeling of a place of importance that it probably once had. Allt of restaurants and ALLT of tourists. But nevertheless its a place you feel you need to experience when visiting SF. Had a excellent lunch at one of many good seafood restaurants.

It's a tourist haunt and, I suppose, a must do if visiting San Francisco. Even if it's in the rain and for the sake of getting a selfie with the sign. For us, its plus is the other things that are close by, included are: Boudin's for it's iconic Sourdough bread and its Clam Chowder in a Sourdough bread bowl, a couple of iconic San Francisco cable car lines, Ghirardelli Square, and an In-n-Out burger. Specifically for our family, it's home to many, many souvenir shops that lets us play our usual game in which we compete to see who can find the tackiest souvenir. Fisherman's Wharf is easy to get to by SF public transit i.e., the Muni. It's served by many bus, streecar, cablecar, and trolley lines. From there you can easily get to other tourist destinations such as Pier 39/Embarcadaro, Lombard St., Chinatown, and so on. Enjoy, just don't expect a lot beyond lots of opportunity to separate you from your money.
