We just moved to San Francisco and have used this little book constantly. It is compact enough that we do not mind pulling it out to read in public and do not fear looking like lost tourists. It is SUCH a complete guide to any interest you have in the city. We bought the SF tourist guides, the Cheap Bastard's Guide (also useful), but once we find our niche here we will still use this book as a great reference tool. It's easy to navigate, provides street & public transit maps we couldn't find elsewhere, and really helps you feel like you know what's going on. Buy it!
So Informative! September 26, 2008

I love this series of books. It tells you all of the places to go to live day to day. When I am traveling and staying for a long period of time, I try to stay in an apartment or condo so I can make my own meals. Books like this are so helpful to tell you where simple things like drugstores and grocery stores are. I previously purchased the Boston and New York NFT books and used them often while visiting.
Great and handy book September 29, 2008

I love the NFT series of books, and this one is no exception! It's full of useful information, it's well organized, and it's pretty funny.
NFT is a cool company, and you can actually view their books on their site for free. However, at this price, it's well worth your money to have the whole book in a convenient portable format.
I have bought these as gifts several times, as well as for myself. I highly recommend them.

My husband is originally from San Francisco, so we visit frequently. We like to try new areas and return to favorites. This spring we wanted to make use of the public transportation system, so we purchased this book. I know that we will use this for many more visits--both in the planning and during the visit!
great guide September 9, 2008

NFT for any city are great. It definately doesn't highlight overly touristy areas. I had some visitors and was using my NFT to navigate our day and thinking there wasn't much in a particular area we stumbled into a major tourist trap. No big deal but funny that there wasn't anything on the map. Other than that it is a perfect guide for a newly relocated city dweller.
