Whether you’re a local or just visiting, it’s easy to get a truly hands-on experience here. At Airbnb, we feel lucky to be part of such a vibrant community, and we’re excited to share this sunny patch of San Francisco with you. To help you find your way in, our design team has picked their favorite places to sip a glass of natural wine, chomp down on the city’s best burger, or get lost in the word’s most idiosyncratic library.

Head to Little Skillet for a hearty, if not exactly healthy, dose of Southern comfort food. Originally just an alleyway take-out window, Little Skillet now slings neo-soul food within the neighboring bar, Victory Hall & Parlor. Along with it’s famed fried chicken and Belgian waffles, the menu also includes catfish po’boys, seafood gumbo, biscuits and gravy, and, of course, sides of collard greens, skillet mac and cheese, and cheddar grits.
