A new book, Crown Guides: Unique Places in San Francisco, by Laura Cavaluzzo and Roxane Ramos, focuses on unique places created in San Francisco that are locally owned and operated, and can be found nowhere else in the world. In the “Neighborhood Cafés, 15 Reasons not to go to Starbucks” section, you guessed it, Farley’s is prominently featured, although does anyone “feel-like-you’re in Mayberry”? Look for a copy at Christopher’s Books just up the road on Mayberry Lane. www.crownguides.com
