Be Aware!: Everything in San Franchisco is a Tourist Trap
  • Tip Rating:
  • Everything in San Francisco is a tourist trap. All of the restaurants are extremely overpriced. The parking meters give you 7 minutes for 25 cents. Fisherman's Wharf is a bunch of garbage Times Square-Like junk shops along a waterfront where you can sell Fried Clams for $48.00 a plate. Haight-Ashbury is a bunch of overpriced coffee shops and natural food restaurants and headshops and cd stores trying to exploit people who are interested in seeing a little bit about our sixites music history. The trolley costs 5 dollars to go in one direction, which is usually up one hill. Then you need to get off and pay five dollars to go back down. I didn't see one place in this whole city that isn't a trap, except maybe the Tenderloin.
