The most crowded station during evening rush hour. Take a westbound train for a few stops if you want to get a seat going back to the east bay.

The best thing about this is what is above which is the Ferry Building the embarcadero and great food not to mention great shops and fun things to do!!

Always hold ur breath on Fremont St. escalator! Urine intensity level is always higher in the mornings. However, it still beats traffic on Bay Bridge and $27/day parking

Take the stairs, it's healthier. Plus, you won't look like a mindless sheep just following the herd to slaughter. :) Have a nice day!

Lots of homeless and drug addicts shooting up but BART chooses to focus on fare evaders. 🙄

If you like to pub crawl....just know that unlike paris, rome, londen or, NYC....this mass transit has no restrooms....plan appropriatly when escaping the city.

Going to the East Bay during PM rush hour? Be prepared to wait for up to 3 or 4 trains to pass before there physically being enough space to board

This is the first stop into SF... But it's also the last stop for all East Bay bound trains. It's a long ride back through the tunnel.

A short walk away from the Ferry Building and The Embarcadero. A first taste of The City by the Bay.

This is the first stop in SF - access to ferries, MUNI and piers. Great farmers market...

Try to breathe through your mouth. You never know how fresh the urine smell may be on a particular day

Going to SFO? Take a train to "SFO" on platform 1. Going to OAK? Remember BCDF: BART to Colliseum?Dublin or Fremont train on platform 2.

Peet's Coffee is above when you transfer between Muni and Bart

Ahoy! Transfer from BART to boat here - ferries depart for Vallejo, Alameda, Oakland, Larkspur and Sausalito.

You can only add value to Clipper Cards on the outside of the turnstile to enter BART/Muni trains.

I know it's a crazy concept, but maybe try to let people OFF the train before you try to get ON.

Why is at least one escalator perpetually broken?

Be sure to insert card with the stripe facing you and on the right side... when using your credit/debit card to add cash to your ticket/Clipper cards.
