1700 Fillmore St, at Post; Western Addition; 415.441.2159

Drinks: Matador
10 6th St, at Market; Tenderloin; 415.863.4629
Formerly the grimy Arrow Bar, Matador’s been spruced up, with bullfighter-themed artwork, antique brass light fixtures, and TP in bathroom. Thankfully, it still offers a dive-like long happy hour ($2 Tecate/Hams, $3 Stella/Speakeasy, $4 shots of Jack/Hornitos, 5-9 pm), great for people who can’t afford full-priced cocktails, but somehow can afford to gore their livers on a school night.

Services: Cook SF’s Thanksgiving Feast
Serves 8-10
CSF’s Feast — a 12lb free-range bird, 8 traditional sides, and pumpkin pie — is a Turkey Day add ition to their normal pro gram of delivering fully prepped, cook-at-home gourmet meals. Basically, they’re a sous chef who won’t steal your recipes, or, more alarmingly, your knives.

This party/sale features 20% off denim and 15%+ off all other gear (Orthodox, J. Fold, etc), while Sierra Nevadas and Champagne’ll come at a 100% discount — an overly generous gift that’ll leave you face down in the dressing room with your own gear 94% off.
