Welcome to San Francisco Macworld Expo attendees! Now that you've got your bag filled with nerd-related goodies, you should take a break from the expo floor and check out the glorious city of San Francisco.
We've compiled a list of eateries, shops, events and tourist destinations in San Francisco in case you get tired of over-priced expo food. To help you get to our selected destinations, we've provided you with Google map links
to both the places, and the SF MUNI public transportation spots, as well

5 Restaurants to Refill You

Lee’s Deli
115 New Montgomery St (between Minna St and Mission St)
After the show, you’re bound to have some sore feet, surely eliminating your desire to eat anything but food delivered to your hotel room. But, what if we promised you some incredibly affordable sandwiches that can be made especially to your liking? Lee’s Deli is located in the heart of the Financial District and feeds the mouths of many hungry business folk on a daily basis. And best of all, it’s incredibly cheap!

54 Mint
16 Mint Place at Jessie Street
If you’ve got some time to wind down, grab a few of your fellow Macworld Expo attendees to join you for a truly posh dinner at 54 Mint. This upscale Italian restaurant has all of your favorite dishes, like lasagna and ravioli, spruced up with truly decadent fixings. Pair any of the dishes with a glass of wine and you’ve got the perfect meal to end a hectic day on the show floor.

Chipotle
126 New Montgomery
(between Mission St & Minna St)
The best thing about Chipotle burritos is that you can eat half of it and save the rest for later. Yeah, you think cold pizza is best served for breakfast? Try a gigantic chicken burrito with extra guacamole.

Burger Bar
251 Geary St, inside of Macy's
If you’re looking for something a little different, albeit a bit pricey, the Burger Bar has got something for everyone--yes, even your fellow vegetarian attendees. But if you are a carnivorous meat eater, we suggest biting into Burger Bar's highly priced Kobe Beef burger and wash it all down with a Coffee and Caramel milkshake. Or, if you’re in a dessert mood, try one of Burger Bar’s dessert burgers.

Eddie Rickenbacker's
133 2nd St (between Minna and Natoma St)
We probably gave you a run around downtown with our food suggestions, but Eddie Rickenbacker’s is a sure treat after a long day on the convention haul. Settle here after the show for a beer and some grilled cheese, and remember to look up every once in awhile to enjoy the genuine antique motorcycles hanging above you.
