The Dreamforce campus is in the heart of the South of Market (SoMo) area of San Francisco, just south of Union Square. This year the event will take place at the Moscone Center, Marriott Marquis, InterContinental, The Palace Hotel, Hilton Union Square, The Park Central (formerly Westin Market Street), Century Theaters & Bespoke at Westfield, and AMC Metreon Theaters.

Although meals are provided with a full conference pass, sometimes you just need to step away from the hustle and bustle for lunch or grab a nice dinner with your new Dreamforce mates. That’s why we’ve compiled a list of 10 must-eat-at restaurants within a 10 minute walk of the Dreamforce campus. Read it and drool!

By the way, we put together a Google map of the Dreamforce locations and our must-visit restaurants.

Even though Jamber has 20 wines on tap (no bottles), their menu is anything but hoity-toity. Where else can you find Mac & Cheese pizza, spicy cauliflower, Parmesan & Rosemary Mashed Potater Tots, and a PB2 sandwich complete with pork belly, peanut butter, and cranberry-walnut jam?!

Here’s their lunch menu. Get there early if you plan on having dinner. What’s the word: “Standouts were definitely the smoky eggplant (jaw-droppingly tear-formingly good!), the blueberry foie gras (surprisingly exquisite and decorative), and certainly the lamb — it was the most tender, least gamey lamb I’ve ever tried!

Come here if you’re wanting fancy. Whether you want to grab a bite at the bar or go all-in on a tasting menu, there’s lots to enjoy, including wine selected by a Master Sommelier.
