5 minute walk to pizza that ranges from decent to great. Bit overpriced (as is much pizza these days), but they serve beer there, and have daily good specials - so all good :-)

Essentials

If you need some grocery store til 1am, then here's Vons, just 2 blocks away. They have normal grocery store crap food & the toxic chemical aisle, but their produce section is constantly improving.

Stay Classy Bike Rentals looks pretty great online, although I haven't used them, or know anyone that has. They deliver and pickup bikes with helmet, locks, etc. Looks pretty sharp.
