Hayes Valley

Considered one of the most rapidly burgeoning areas in San Francisco, Hayes Valley’s ascent as one of the Bay Area’s hippest neighborhoods can be attributed to the vast array of high-end boutiques, restaurants, and bars that populate the city plaza. After years of steady growth, this once-forgotten neighborhood is now grabbing its share of the spotlight. In the quieter residential streets, mission-revival homes abut painted ladies and modern new condominiums mingle with beautifully maintained Victorians. Sunshine, tree-lined center streets, and indoor/outdoor transitional shopping spaces like much-adored Patricia’s Green all offer a calmer retreat from downtown without missing any of the amenities.
