Exploring Ghirardelli Square in San Francisco

The ultimate tour of Ghirardelli Square in San Francisco's Fisherman's Wharf neighborhood. This specialty retail and dining complex was originally a chocolate factory established by Domenico “Domingo” Ghirardelli. At Ghiradelli Square you'll find spectacular views of the Golden Gate Bridge to Alcatraz, landscaped gardens, one-of-a-kind shopping and, of course the famous Ghirardelli Chocolate and ice cream parlor.

    The decor at Ghirardelli Square changes based on the season. Fall is particularly beautiful, with pumpkins and fall foliage placed around the fountain.

    Ghirardelli has SUCH wonderful chocolate! Only been to the San Francisco location once, but have frequented the one at California Adventure SO many times these last two decades (sadly, the Boba tea place used to be a wonderful Italian restaurant way back in 2001 the only previous time I’ve been here…sad to know they’re no longer around…)

Even though I already went there right before you came in April, I watch your videos and I can see how well I did exploring the city or what I could've done better.

    I have never seen Ghirardelli Square so empty. Based on the lights and sun, it must have been between 6-7pm. I love Ghirardelli Square but I have never been a fan of their chocolate. The amount of chocolate is just so low and the flavor is not there. It's more milk and emulsifiers. I personally prefer See's Candies or Godiva. Thanks for sharing your experience with us - so many new shops now (boba tea😯?)

    I always stop by there when I'm in S.F. Visitors always seem fixated on eating at the original Ghiradelli, when there's another right inside the square serving the same stuff with no wait and less crowds. Walk around the original but get your chocolate fix at another. I never drive when I go to S.F. and use public transportation. It's a compact city. With Ghiradelli it's a walk up a hill from Fisherman's Wharf, but think of that as burning the empty calories you'll be eating.

I go there through your videos! 🤣 Maybe I should go visit again soon? Nah, don't want my windows bashed in. I used to go to Crystal City a lot on business too (your last video). Have a funny story to tell...I was a guest at the Ritz Carlton (corporate rate) and was asked to leave the lobby area because I was in Shorts and a T-shirt. 🤣🤣 It was SUMMER!!

    Chris do you know that there is no skill involved in getting toys when playing "crane games"? It is pure luck if the mechanical hand will deliver the player a prize as the machines are programed to only allow a certain percentage of "winners" and "drop" all the other toys no matter what the player does. It's basically like playing a slot machine. Also, if you're ever brave enough to return to Oaktown, the best ice-cream sundaes (or ice-cream anything) are at Fenton's Creamery on Piedmont Avenue. Grab yourself some good old fashioned diner food (tuna melt is my fav) and finish off with a HUGE sundae (the Black & Tan would be my recommendation) 🍨 🍨 🍨
