Things To Do Near Jury Duty: 400 McAllister & 850 Bryant
Some of the areas near jury duty (both civic center and SOMA) are often ones people don’t really spend time at unless they work for the city or get divorced often.
Trying to search last-minute places can be annoying if you are looking for places with places to sit, covered areas (sun, rain or wind), things to do to kill time or places to work from during your break.
Many places below are also overlooked as they are much closer than one would assume given how multiple neighborhoods intersect at City Hall (and few people cross Market or Van Ness) or are usually closed on weekends.
Below is my jury duty survival guide on where to eat, drink, run errands, do work, grab a drink after a long day and more near jury duty locations at 400 McAllister (Civic Center) and 850 Bryant. It includes a hidden spot or two, many people in the area don’t even know about and many spots include distances and walking times and some notable closures (days of the week).
I also added some places for post-wedding/elopement lunches within walking distance.
