I can suggest a few things. One thing I can tell you right off the bat is to ALWAYS carry cash as a lot of the smaller shops, and bars in SF are cash only!

First there is the Westfield Mall on Market street (cross 5th) which, granted, is just a high-end mall but there are some really cool shops in there.

Pier 39 along the Embarcadero is a very popular destination for out-of-towners with a lot of novelty shops.

If you really like beer, you should go to the Gordon Biersch brewery as they have a lot of great beers and some pretty good food too (try the pizza).

One of my favorite Italian restaurants is actually a chain called Buca Di Beppo’s which I believe is on Mission St. There is also Mel’s diner down the street which is a 50’s style restaurant that has good food for fairly cheap.

On Third St. is the SF Museum of Modern Art and is pretty cool for a museum. But the best “museum” is the Exploratorium by Golden Gate Park.

If you're in the mood for a movie, I like the theater at The Metreon.

That should keep you pretty busy but if you want more suggestions, let me know.
