The Smallville Fan's Very Short Guide to San Francisco

The Beanery on 9th Ave. The Beanery
Come on, you know you need a Beanery commuter mug. There are Beanery coffee houses at 602 Irving (at 7th Ave.) and at 1307 9th Ave (at Irving.) That's right, they're about two blocks apart. But they don't look anything alike. (Someone out there is saying: "That's so typical of San Francisco," and you know who you are.) There's also one in Berkeley at 2925 College Ave.

Those of you new to the city should note that the numbered streets and the numbered avenues (7th St. vs. 7th Ave.) are practically across town from each other. I don't know what the thinking was there. The Beanery coffee houses are out in "The Avenues."

Ty Nant Bottle Water
Dying of thirst in the Ty Nant-less wastelands? Stock up on the blue bottles at Andronico's located at 1200 Irving. Yes, it's six blocks from the Beanery.

Ty Nant is usually available at Bryan's in Laurel Village. They're in the main store, not the annex, which is a butcher shop / coffee store. (Huh?) The address is 3445 California.

Any more?
That's it for now. Please email me if you know of other places that should be included here.
