About this Neighborhood

Nob Hill is one of San Francisco's highest-income neighborhoods, historically a center of the city's upper class and known for luxury hotels and historic mansions. The data reflects a well-stocked daily life: 114 restaurants, 39 coffee shops, 40 grocery stores, and 6 fitness options. Yelp reviewers give the area a 4.9 average across 3,590 reviews, with Board and Drink, Yasijang, and Salty's as top names. Foursquare popular tastes lean refined: Italian restaurants, wine bars, coffee shops, delis, cafés, and American restaurants dominate — alongside a park and playground entry that rounds out the picture. A vibe score of 45 moderates the high counts; the 40-grocery figure is exceptional for a neighborhood of this type. With a livability alpha of 90 and social glue of 49, Nob Hill reads as a place where individual daily life is deeply convenient but community cohesion is less its defining trait.
