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.

Marlowe’s interior is bright and friendly with white hexagonal floor tiles, quilted stainless steel along the bar, and marble countertops. Sure, this hip bistro has a number of fine-dining entrees, but the burger, which regularly ranks as the city’s best, is the real star. The beef patty is ground with a bit of lamb for added flavor and served on a toasted Acme bun with horseradish aioli, cheddar cheese, caramelized onions, bacon, and shredded lettuce.
