    Cute Lil store. Well decorated, it is so pleasant to see. I was looking for Jellycat. They do have some, but not a lot. They have so many cute stuff though.

    Clock wall!

    Anyone who says "San Francisco is a dying city" should take a stroll down clement street.. they will very quickly see that there is a vibrant and thriving atmosphere filled with amazing food, interesting art, and where this review fits in, many retail shops filled with unparalleled quirky, quality and products willed with character and charm. Today's highlight: Tantrum! I do not have kids (nor will I have any, it's not in the cards for me by choice) but my sister has a 6mo baby who just came to visit for five days and after hearing about this shop, I stopped in to spoil my niece with some quality toys and sensory things. The shop was amazing, with so much to look through and many staff members to help with whatever questions one might have! Everything I picked up had a sturdy feeling to it, as well as clear tagging (about what was appropriate for what age) which was very helpful for me, as someone who knows just about nothing about what babies can have what toys... it must be said that this establishment is not inexpensive by any means. The least expensive item I bought was a decorative block letter (out of three) which were four dollars each. Fine for a decoration. But the actual toys, those were much much pricier, however the quality justifies the cost in my opinion. I'm happy to have shopped local, and even happier to have spoiled my niece, though she'll probably never know it Either way this shop is great, and if you're willing to shell out some extra $$ for some quality goods, it's worth going into! Or even if you're not and just want to look around, it's a feast for the eyes!

    Individually wrapped gift, went the extra mile!

    Any time i have to buy a gift for a kid i come to tantrum! They have the cutest selection of well made toys, arts and crafts (coloring books, stickers, pencils, crayons), stationary and cards, newborn gifts, and the list goes on! It's priced reasonably - on the higher end, but well worth it for the quality and selection. The service I've received here has always been outstanding! Each gift is individually wrapped, the child's name stamped on a tag & thoughtfully assembled. Love coming here and getting lost in the kid magic! It's a treat

    Shelves full of Jellycats and more! (P1)

    Nice collection of goods! They carry Jellycats! Heaven for both kids and adults. Huge selection of cards ranging from birthdays, weddings, anniversaries, thank-yous, etc.. But yes, Jellycats! I have been a customer since 2015 and will keep coming back for my amuseables. They also deliver to your doorstep (check website though.)

The small garden was beautiful. A few interesting buildings. A bridge. A cool gift shop. There was a bit of loud construction going on that was very visible behind the tranquil small meditation bench. Koi pond had some very well fed fish. The water was very murky so it was hard to see them. The Tea Cafe was cute, lots of seating. The chicken looked scrumptious. The udon also looked yummy. We ordered 2 iced green tea and were informed that the tea comes sweetened -- we decided to try it as it was an exceptionally hot day in SF and needed a cool beverage. WHAT A MISTAKE!! SICKLY SWEET AND SYRUPY. Only a smattering of ice cubes and the tea itself was a brown off color. I do not believe they make it in house. It tasted old and completely commercially made. I told one of the waiters and he acting surprised and asked if they mentioned that it was going to be sweetened, we said yes, but this is absolutely inedible and undrinkable. By this time the woman who sold us the tea came by (she didn't seem too interested in helping us to exchange to something else) and gave us a puzzled look and moved on. The male waiter asked if we wanted to try a different tea, but by this time we were ready to leave. $16x 2 for entrance fee. 2 small cups of sickly sweet greenish brown tea $10 dollars + 1 dollar for tip = wasted money. $43 dollars total == hmmmm? The place itself was cool and I would like to go back and enjoy the tranquility and hot tea on a cooler afternoon.

These street cars are the star of the attraction and definitely worth the ride. For $5.70 one can buy an all-day Muni pass which allows you to ride these cars along with all other transit EXCEPT the cable cars. These cars are a collection of preserved vehicles from the '30s to '50s. Each one was given from a city in the US. They were originally brought to San Francisco to substitute for the cable cars when the c.c. Went under major renovation back in the '80s. The street cars became a hit with locals and tourists and are now a part of historic transit systems in San Francisco. The museum is small but detailed. It is open limited hours and run by a team of volunteers. They are passionate about these street cars and it shows. They are very detailed oriented but expect a pause every 10 minutes when a street car goes rolling by. The museum is free with a suggested $5 donation. It will only take about 30 minutes to cover it but a great stop if a rail fan.

I was just dropping money left and right for kids museums that were free for us. Sigh. Lesson of the trip: check your memberships! A lot of the exhibits were broken or not working, which was a bummer, but there was plenty of stuff for us to look at, and we didn't even see it all. Some highlights for the kids were the interactive laser table, the room where everything has no color unless you use a white light flashlight (they were in there FOREVER), and the cow eye dissection (which also left us all a little queasy...). We took too long getting brunch at the Ferry Building, so we didn't have enough time to explore it all, but I'm sure we'll return when we come up again.
