NEIGHBORHOOD SPOTLIGHT SOUTH BE ACH PETE’S TAVERN
JENA DAVIS Sales Associate
Pete’s is a fun place to go and watch games or celebrate aferward. Many fans fill up this large space often, the vibe is fun and quick to catch. 22 TVs, frequent happy hour specials and attentive service make Petes one of my favorite places to be during game time. THE AMERICAN GRILLED CHEESE KITCHEN
JON STERLING Senior Sales Associate
Their sandwiches are all fantastic, and they have great names to match. Mousetrap (three cheeses), Piglet (ham and cheese), and Foghorn Leghorn (two cheeses and chicken) are my favorites. If it’s a little chilly, I’ll add a bowl of their smoky tomato soup for good measure. They close for the day once they run out of cheese, so be sure to get there early! SOUTH PARK
KRISTEN STUECHER Senior Sales Associate
South Park is South Beach’s little, hidden gem a true garden oasis tucked away amongst a concrete jungle. Bound by second, third, Bryant and Brannan this quaint neighborhood park is lined with cobblestone sidewalks, charming cafes and eclectic art galleries. It is reminiscent of the bucolic urban parks found in European cities such as London or Paris. In true SF form there is also free Wi-fi and an abundance of food trucks nearby. It is an ideal spot for an al fresco lunch followed by playtime on the swing set. THE WATER BAR
STEVE MI Senior Sales Associate
We all know the place, but you gotta try the brunch on the terrace. Enjoy the breeze with your free-flowing Brunch Bubbles!
