Is there something BARTable that we must know about? Start here!
We’ve been around since 2015, and although we’d like to think we know every last nook and cranny of the Bay Area, we know that every day a new business is opening its doors, a restaurant is popping up or a festival is kicking off its inaugural year. And we want to hear about them!

This weekend, we celebrate Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. with music, activities, special guests, and commemorations. Additionally, with warm and sunny weather in the forecast, it's looking like a great weekend to experience the San Jose Berryessa Flea Market or to grab a takeout food special from one of the many restaurants participating in Concord and Oakland Restaurant Weeks.

Kick off the holidays in style with our recommendations on what to do this weekend. From theatre performances, to good grub available outdoors and socially-distanced, and everything in between, check out what's BARTable (and #virtuallyBARTable) this weekend.
For more than 30 years, Macy’s Union Square and the San Francisco SPCA have been an important part of San Francisco’s holiday experience. Through the holiday season, thousands of shoppers and holiday revelers could witness a whole lot of cuteness inside Macy’s decorated windows. The animals couldn’t help themselves as they tumbled and pawed for your attention, your donations, and the prospect of a new home.

The wind-down from the holidays is here and it's time to sit back and relax a bit on this first weekend of 2021. While the events calendar may be a little lighter than usual, it still offers up some fun ideas for things to do and enjoy while bringing the energy down a notch. That said, let the low-key weekend commence and Happy New Year!
