    When the Bart train first stops the doors open then close soon. Don't worry, they will open again just before departure since Millbrae is a terminal station

    Hong Kong Flower Lounge is right across the street. It's a huge dim sum palace (3 floors) specializing in seafood. Excellent quality and reasonable prices.

    The skyway to Bart is on level 4 of the parking garage. So if you're planning on long term parking, park there and save a trip on the elevator.

    The BART and Caltrain trains are not timed, so be prepared to see the BART depart just as you arrive on Caltrain! Next BART: 15-20 minutes.

    There are restrooms but they are tricky to find. You have to go to the upper level, inside the paid area, on the North side. If you go up on the South side, you can't get to the restrooms.

    Pay for parking in the station when you lay for your ticket by adding it to your fare. Go passed the gate to get it validated. Remember your parking spot number.

    Switch from Caltrain and get BART to Embarcadero if you're going to walk along the front to Pier 39.

    All BART trains go to the city from here. Evenings and weekends they stop at SFO on the way. Daytime they skip SFO, change at San Bruno to go to SFO then.

    If you don't have cash for parking, use you're Bart ticket and go to the machine for adding money to your card/parking validation. Insert your existing ticket and it will automatically take out the $.

    This is the only BART Station that also houses a Caltrain station. BART only goes North from here. To get to SFO, you'll need to transfer at San Bruno except after 7pm and weekends.

    After 8pm, take a Lyft if you can. Trains get really sparse and not a lot of commuters, so people sadly use them to sleep and use drugs.

    There is a big deal about this chocolate, but after business hours it smells like any other BART station, which isn't pleasant.

    The BART and Caltrain stations are in the exact same spot. This is a multipurpose facility.

    Do not hesitate to ask a fellow passenger how to get to your destination. Most of the time they'll help you out :)

    The one CalTrain station with free weekend parking :D Barring that, it's only $1 (vs. $3 for other CalTrain stations at any time).

    The wait list for a monthly parking pass doesn't take that long at all. I got mine in about a month.

    If you are smelling chocolate it's because the Guitard Chocolate factory is just down the road roasting a batch of cocoa beans. It smells so good!

    Beware of the cameras at the traffic lights on the corner. They are super sensitive and will go off for nearly anything.

    This is the last BART stop in the south. If you're going to SFO. Go back to San Bruno. In case you're lost here, there's an In-N-Out burger nearby.

    If going to mission from south bay, take caltrain to millbrae and switch to bart. Fastest + cheapest way

    Right turn into garage from Millbrae is a county cash register. $466 + point on DMV. Put your visor down. No case w/o a photo of your face.

    Make a friend and take a cab to SFO - $10, 5 min, and you go directly to your terminal.

    An essential transit hub made deeply frustrating by SamTrans' decision not to service the bus terminal here in favor of stood several blocks away. More efficient? For drivers, maybe, not passengers.

    Clever BART police officer set up a speed trap in the garage at the turn before the first floor back exit today. Be careful!

    What's up with the bad signage and the horrible UI/UX on the ticket machines? Oh yeah I'm in California. They do cars. Not trains.

    If you are going to SFO, you have to go to the San Bruno station, get off, then wait for the SFO train. Unless it's after 7:00 pm.

    You're presumably here because you accidentally got on the wrong train to SFO. Stay where you are, go back to San Bruno and then change for SFO.
