San Francisco’s 14 Best Tourist Traps | Eater SF

"A trip to City Lights Bookstore to pay respects to the Beat poets would not be complete without wandering up a side alley for a cappuccino, cocktail, or a cappuccino cocktail. Options abound, but one of the greats is Caffe Trieste, which has been pouring espresso since 1956. Grab a seat in the big window, flip open a newspaper, and watch the neighborhood stagger by." - Dianne de Guzman
