This place is a vibe

I passed Haight-Ashbury on the Big Bus San Francisco Hop-on Hop-off Tour and knew I had to come back here. Haight Street is vibrant and lined with all sorts of colourful shops where you can spend a good couple of hours browsing. Its iconic, hippie...More

First time but not the last

I loved this place, it's like Byron Bay on steroids. It's an old hippy town and still has that carefree feel. Good bars, good used clothing shops, good tattoo parlor. Yes lots of homeless and dogs but that's part of the fun.

The good vibe is alive ......just

Visited Haight-Ashbury about 15 years ago and felt then that it had completely lost its hippie vibe and had transcended into a tourist trap - visited recently and that appears to have changed. Better shops with great coffee shops and restaurants the head shops and...More

Nice buildings

This area is from where the hippys first met and made their movement. In this days only the nice victorian buldings are mentionable.

Nostalgic, fun and a little sad

A visit to Haight Ashbury is really worthwhile. The place buzzes with the counter culture synonymous with San Fransisco and it is very probably one of the best 'people watching' places that I have been. Incredible vintage shopping, some good bars and 'restaurants' but also...More

A new summer of love

Loved Haight Ashbury area. Steeped in music history. Great shots and lovely eating places. Note so sure it would always be a safe but was definitely good fun in a warm summers day. Even the mushroom dealers were very plesent

Psychedelic

Trendy, nostalgic, funky and the birth place of the counter culture and psychedelic movement in the 60"s. Now more mainstream with bars and restaurants.

Haight-Ashbury

The area surrounding the intersection of Haight and
Ashbury streets, “The Haight” still exudes vibes of
the 1960s counterculture as a haven for vintage
clothes, music, pop posters and body piercing shops.
While the Summer of Love ended decades ago,
Haight-Ashbury has turned into a melting pot of
hippies, hipsters, and professionals. Walking through
its streets can still feel like stepping back in time.
