All in San Francisco.

 - Cafe Bastille is downtown on some little alleyway 1/2 block from
   Montgomery between Bush & Pine,

 - Southpark Cafe is in the funky hidden little South Park
   neighborhood (the area bounded by 2nd & 3rd and Bryant &
   Brannan),

 - Fringale is also in SOMA on 4th between Bryant & Brannan, just
   down the block from the Trocadero (RIP).
