    The three places I frequent in this strip is Ross, Big Lots (which was a Lucky Grocery Store…read morebefore) and Goodwill. I have made a stop at Starbucks, Jamba Juice, Taco Bell and Jack in the Box. There are also a number of other mom-and-pop eateries, which I've noticed since the partial reopening after the pandemic shutdown, are pretty popular. Also somewhere sorta hidden in the back are a few more vendors including a boba tea spot and behind Ross is a Holiday Inn. There's a UPS as well as a Citibank and other random places one might need on some casual day. It would be a one-stop shop kinda area if it had a grocery store, but you know... not complaining. Plenty of parking spots regardless which business you need to go to. [FYI: If it hasn't been updated yet, the correct address is 300 San Pablo Towne Center, San Pablo CA 94806. Just in case someone needs it.] I usually knock a couple things off my to-buy list whenever I'm around these quarters, so it can get convenient. I'm glad they're here.

    Pier 39 is honestly so touristy but it's worth it. Come during the fall or spring and try to come…read moreon an off day so it's not too packed. There are plenty of restaurants with great views as well as casual spots to eat. It is lovely to have a view of the bay, the Golden Gate Bridge, and the Ferris wheel all in one. On the other end, you can see the sea lions and Alcatraz. The sea lions are really really fun - there is one sea lion that is absolutely MASSIVE. The parking is expensive but you can get 1 hour comped when you validate. On a beautiful day, this is reallly a fun spot to come (even if it is touristy).

    I grew up in the East Bay, and have been visiting Pier 39 since shortly after it opened. Back in…read morethe day, they used to have a recording studio where you could record a demo, and that is a favorite memory. But, the sea lions, the views, and the shops are the heart of why I visit almost every time I come to the City. It is just such a cool atmosphere and fun place to visit. On our most recent visit in early September 2026, it happened to be a foggy day, but cool after a few days of unusually warm weather. We stopped by to see the sea lions, and visit many of the stores. It Pier 39 geared for tourists? Yes. But, I love the gift shops, the restaurants, the attractions, and everything else that is Pier 39! I enjoyed our recent visit, and I look forward to the next one!
