Trip to San Fran Part III


The Grove Fillmore

JJ and I decided to wake up early one morning while in San Francisco and stroll around Pacific Heights to find a place for brunch. We weren't exactly sure what we were in the mood for, but happened upon The Grove Fillmore. From the moment we walked in, we felt right at home because of the earthy, warm vibe. We knew we had made a good choice. The restaurant was packed with cowboy memorabilia, antique books, cushions, and anything & everything that would make you feel like you were in a cozy mountain house in the middle of winter. The worn wooden tables, benches and even a little tree house dining section added to the casual ambience. We sat at a bar that faced the center of the restaurant that was filled with rustic tables and lots of people. The seat was perfect for people watching. I truly cannot remember what exactly I ate here, but I remember it was delicious, organic, and healthy. The food was a little on the pricey side for brunch, but then again we were in San Fran and everything seems more expensive there, so it didn't phase us. Also, when I am on vacation I tend to splurge on everything anyway. This was such a great way to begin our day in the City by the Bay!
