These great neighborhood spots are all within a few blocks, and we've been to all of them.

Formerly called Griddle Fresh, now Aha Fresh (same food and ownership), this is for our money the best brunch spot in SF - reasonable wait times, great food, affordable prices. Try the Corned Beef Hash!

The best American-style bakery in SF in our opinion. Tartine which is more of a French-style bakery gets way more pub, and is deserving of it, but this spot is a hidden gem with equally great pastries and bread, and far less wait time. The coffee is great too!

A new and welcome addition to 24th Street, this coffee shop is great for breakfast and lunch as well, and they have great bread and pastry too. Well-designed and spacious interior.

A San Francisco institution, this coffee joint does it a little differently - no espresso drinks, only pour-over, and they specialize in flavored drinks. Our personal fave is the Mocha Tesora. Take your coffee to-go and head to Noe Valley Park across the street.

Our favorite fusion sushi joint in SF. A little on the pricey side, but worth it. The dinnertime wait can be long, but unlike most restaurants in SF they do keep a wait list, so call ahead.

This is Pattabi's go-to bar to hang out with buddies in the neighborhood. Pub-style, with a friendly staff and a huge draft beer selection. They also have a great back patio that's open during the day.

An old-school Italian place run by real Italians, this is a good place to hit up when you're tired of all the ultra-trendy SF restaurants that give you tiny portions. The folks at Lupa will make sure you don't leave hungry.

Awesome deep dish and flat pizzas. Salads are bomb as well (the chopped and Caesar are our favorites). A very affordable slice-and-salad lunch special as well.

Great local Mexican chain. Mission has more and better places, but if you have to get something in the neighborhood, this is the place, and it can hang with all of those Mission joints in terms of quality. This is our go-to when we don't have time to cook dinner.

Technically in Castro, not Noe, but the 24 bus will get you there in a couple of minutes, or you could hike over the hill in about 10. If you can't find something in one of the Noe stores, they've got it here for sure.

This store defies description, but it's a combination art store and general store. It doesn't make sense, I know, but you will definitely find cool gifts here. Just go.

Our favorite toy store ever, we always head here on the way to our next kids' birthday party. No plastic GI Joes or Barbies here, only beautifully made, educational toys. Great books and clothes too. And they wrap for you.
