A veteran San Francisco arts institution that recently moved from its home in the Mission to the bottom of the San Francisco Chronicle Building. Their gallery regularly puts on exhibitions that are relevant, accessible, and often straight up delightful. As opposed to some of the more buttoned-up galleries, Intersection’s penchant for participatory pieces is met with a regular crowd that tends to be game for participating, which always makes for a good time.

Great cocktails. Horrible crowd.

Current representing gallery.

Reliably divey, with an ample back patio, ill-advertised punk shows and the occasional appearance of dollar oysters.

the best french bakery in town, owned by a very cute french family
