Walking distance from the apartment. Hands down the best brunch in Oakland, 7 days a week. And right by the lake so you can enjoy the view before or after your meal. Prepare to wait, but the savory French toast is worth it!

Not just a museum, but this is the century old building that houses the systems for the cable cars. It's amazing to see the giant spools of cables in action. Not to be missed!
