One of our new favorites places in San Francisco is Jackson Square. The once sleepy outpost bordering Chinatown and North Beach has been transformed into a hotbed of chic boutiques, hipster coffee shops and quaint bookstores. Here are our favorites:
Chapel Hill Coffee
670 Commercial St
Technically in Chinatown, this hidden cafe operates out of a teeny space on Commercial street. The interior here is all white subway tile, wooden counters and exposed bulbs. Grab dim sum at City View restaurant down the street and then head here for Four Barrel coffee.
