NORTH BEACH. Greco's European sensibility makes it a classic with city residents and travelers, who come to indulge in perfectly crafted cappuccinos, scrumptious pastries, and a casual but lively vibe. Score an outside table for the best people-watching, or pick an inside perch for quieter purposes. Bagels and focaccia sandwiches provide savory, substantial alternatives, and tiramisu is a fresh, delicious treat any time of day. Attentive, conscientious service makes the place even more appealing. |

Description:
NORTH BEACH. In the 1950s, this original North Beach location was the first on the West Coast to offer espresso, fast becoming a "beatnik" hot spot. The beans were roasted and prepared by Italian immigrant Giovanni Giotta, who's still at the helm, along with his wife and kids. Coffee lovers find great cappuccino, along with muffins, sandwiches, salads, and pizzas. In keeping with tradition, there's live music every Saturday. A classy, relaxed café equally suited for idle afternoons. |

Description:
EMBARCADERO. This friendly restaurant, located at the Embarcadero, is just two blocks from the "New" Giants Stadium and offers great bay views. Brunch is a near-perfect experience, according to regulars. Baskets of home-baked breads, smoked mozzarella frittata, crab cakes, and oatmeal pancakes studded with nuts and fruit are constant favorites. Although the wait can be long (other folks know about Town's End's appeal too!), brunch is well worth the delay. |
