Visit San Francisco @ Universal Studios

Florida Guide > Universal Parks

When we visit Universal Studios we usually go to the San Francisco area either before of after our ride on Jaws or at lunchtime when we are ready for a sit down and something to eat.

If you want to relax and eat here there is plenty of choice. If you have decide before your visit to the park that you would like a full service restaurant make a reservation before your visit at Lombard’s Seafood Grille at Fisherman’s Wharf. This has proved to be a very popular restaurant since Universal Studios first opened. It serves both lunch and dinner last time we ate here we had pre-booked a table for lunch. Unusually we all ordered the same courses of New England Clam Chowder and Bay Shrimp Cobb Salad, they were both delicious.

If you are paying a mid afternoon visit you may just want a drink and a pastry if so I can recommend the San Francisco Pastry Company which is located across from the entrance to Lombards.

Situated close to Lombard’s is Chef Alcatraz which provides fast service outdoor dining. Here you can choose from Shrimp, Turkey Wraps, Chillis and Nachos.

At Richter’s Burger Company you can enjoy great burgers. If you go to the back of the restaurant you may be able to get a table overlooking the lagoon and the balcony gives great views of “New York”.

Midway Grills you have a choice of hot dogs, chilli dogs, fries soft drinks and you can
also get beers to enjoy at their outdoor seating area.

The San Francisco Beer Company also sells beer as well as pretzels.

The younger ones (as well as some of the older ones! ) in your party will enjoy a visit to the Candy Factory with its vast varieties of sweets as well as Fudge, Toffee Apples and Gourmet Cookies.

For the sweet toothed members of your party try Boardwalk Snacks they do great Funnel Cakes as well as Ice Cream.

Young and old alike can also enjoy some of the games stall where you are invited to try your luck and your skills. My Mother and I usually have an ice cream and sit down to enjoy it here whilst My Father takes the girls around it helps them to burn off some energy before we head off to the Disaster Movie Ride.

If the wait is too long we do not always go to Disaster but if possible do try to do this ride we always enjoy but I will not spoil it by telling you more!

Do visit the San Francisco area of the Studios you will enjoy it.
