“I did a walk-in just to have a quick peek today and they fortunately had one spot open! The cats were so friendly and receptive to pets and scratches. The separation of studios further inside the cafe was really cool for individualized socializing. It's also super clean and stocked with toys and seating areas. The decor and cat houses were so cute too!”

“I have a colony and just finished getting all the females spayed to avoid kittens. They procreate unreasonably quickly and I can only care for so many cats. The urban ecosystem can only manage so many cats but I appreciate not having to worry about rodents. My local opossum is doing a great job at managing ticks. Love the wildlife, just trying to be responsible.”

“Fort Mason Center is a great place to spend a few hours with the family. Beautiful waterfront views, plenty of open space to walk around, and a relaxed atmosphere away from the crowds.

Grab a coffee, enjoy the bay, and let the kids explore the area. Definitely worth a visit if you’re looking for a laid-back afternoon in San Francisco.”

“I went for the Choir Choir Choir show, wow, what an outstanding adventure in song and music.
The staff was so helpful, and very professional, especially the lady at the box office named Manisha, who was so kind to guide me and my date to the doors. I can't believe most of all these folks are volunteers, how incredible!
The food and drinks were delicious, so much healthier than usual concession booths.
This was such a fun experience, I hope to attend more events here in the future.”

“The seats were uncomfortable and cramp but worse are the floor boards that are loose. Makes it hard for an elderly crowd to walk on. The theater is bit run down, but I like the overall design. Sound is better at top than in the middle of theater.”

“I wandered into this little boutique while my brother was getting his eyebrows threaded next door, and somehow walked out with one of my favorite memories. The moment I stepped inside, I felt the magic of the place. I'd never seen a shop like this with every piece feeling like it had a soul. I collect artistic cards, so of course I gravitated straight toward the displays and picked one out. Important detail: I hate carrying purses. So my cards and cash live chaotically in my pockets. Reckless? Yes. Will do ? Also yes. So when I go to pull out my debit card, my ID shot out like it had somewhere better to be and slipped perfectly under this massive bookcase. I knelt down to assess the situation--an inch-wide slot leading into a dark abyss. Purse: 1. Me: 0. I briefly told the employee what happened explaining why I was all of a sudden on all fours face to face with the ground, completely expecting maybe a shrug. But Instead, he immediately started removing items, trying to shift the entire bookcase, going above and beyond to retrieve my ID. But it was quickly apparent the it was mission impossible to which I fully accepted. But his pure kindness and concern really touched me and we just quickly started talking about the story behind the boutique. Amazing story, and I ended up buying a handmade cup after the fact. And I'd love to say their kindness inspired me to buy a cup, but let's be honest: I bought it because I felt guilty. (...Though I had been eyeing it before my ID made its dramatic escape so I really did want it). Now that cup sits on my bookcase, and every time I see it, I think of how what could've been a gloomy experience turned into one of my sweetest little memories. And yes, I know I'm making this sound more dramatic than it probably was. But 1) you'd remember this shop too if you stepped foot inside, and 2) I do have a history of unintentionally disturbing the peace in small shops, to which my guilt makes it mandatory to make a purchase, only for those "guilt purchases" to become some of my most treasured things.”

“This is an incredible program that without these hero’s doing the work they do many lives would be lost and costs to taxpayers would increase exponentially in emergency medical services that would manifest without the reduction of harm that they provide. The services provided here range everything from Narcan training and free Narcan provided, medical Care on Thursday Afternoons and wound care, all of the possible harm reduction supplies you might need as well as wound care supplies first aid some hygiene items such as disposable undies and feminine products group support and referral for treatment as well as testing of street drugs so the consumer can make a more informed decision on what is going into their bodies. Restrooms are available (restrooms were still being renovated so they might not be ready just yet) the only thing missing from this location is a safe consumption program. The staff and volunteers are some of the kindest people who have no judgement come as you are!”

“The Big Bro program has been wonderful for my grandson. His BIG has provided activites that have encouraged his LITTLE to open his mind to new experiences. Taking his LITTLE to San Jose State University for Basketball, Baseball games, while sharing his own college experiences while explaining how to get to college by going 2 yrs to a Jr College (for basics), and 2yrs to SJSU for your chosen career goal. It's much more cost effective. And now my grandson wants to go to SJSU! That alone means so much to our family, as we weren't able to go to college.

His BIG, also spends time, with his LITTLE going to libraries; hiking in Parks; visiting Tech Museum,; Movie theaters; Hiiller Aviation Museum; or grabbing an ice cream cone along the way.
I am so grateful for his BIG's dedication and commitment to his LITTLE.

It's been a wonderful experience for my grandson. Plus, the BBBS program has a very thorough interview process for adults that wish to volunteer, and regular check-ins with parents/guardians & LITTLES. So, we feel confident about about our LITTLES safety.

Thank You So Much
Colleen”

“I passed through here a couple weeks ago and loved it! It was probably the most welcoming church I’ve ever been to (even on my walk in from the parking lot, I was accompanied by some very friendly church goers!). If you’re in this area and looking for a good community and impactful sermons, I’d highly suggest Storyline!”

“I think the square is very good. However, they do not protect their users from scammers, the way I feel they should. People are out here buying products, getting the completed products, and then asking for a refund and Square is giving it without even asking any questions.”

“I went to this book store with my mom. I'm not into books, but my mom is a big reader. I think all the books are donated or they bought. My mom bought three books, just for $4.50. Really cheap books. That's my 5 stars.”

“Brought a pair of custom jeans that is my most prized article of clothing and was 3-4 sizes too large in the waist to be brought in. I was nervous to have anything done to them but heard Holy Stitch specializes in denim so I gave it a shot. I had an awesome experience around the show and was thrilled with the job they did. They took the pants apart to make the alteration work invisible and put everything back together so the pants look like they were made to fit me originally. I don’t have to wear them with a belt and they would have been around my ankles if I did that before. Really great price and customer service on top. I’d highly recommend.”

“CityTeam Oakland SAVED MY LIFE. They took me in and loved me until I learned to love myself. They taught me how to live without drugs and alcohol. They gave me time to absorb the lessons and, in turn, how to incorporate them into my life. A total life change is not easy, but they were there every step along they way. And they helped me grow in all area's of my life. I have a life today that I could not imagine before I walked through those doors. I will be forever grateful.”
