Although most tourists end up on the 16th Street Mall, the locals tend to avoid it like the plague. There are a few diamonds in the rough (LINK but I would definitely recommend checking out some of the other hoods. Baker and RiNo are my personal favorites, although the Highlands and Capitol Hill are pretty cool too. There are a ton of cool bars, breweries, things to check out in town...if you let me know a little bit more about what you are looking for (e.g. dive bars, more of a hipster scene, cheap but tasty eats, etc.) I can give you more specific recommendations.
