My main concern isn't really entertainment options as it is safety. SF is kind of dicey on a good day (at least along Market/SOMA, where I'll be based) so hoping its not much worse than pre-pandemic. Pedestrian, I would appreciate an update when you return in regards to this. I'll be mainly doing client visits but might also pop into the odd gay bar (if open) lol.
Theres a chance I might relocate to the Bay Area, if that's the case then I'd be happy to provide periodic construction updates as well. Sorry for hijacking the thread.

If by “along Market” you mean what we call “Mid-Market”, i.e. Market from about 5th St to Van Ness, that’s the scariest place in San Francisco IMHO and even long-time San Franciscans avoid it (however a couple of new residential projects there are near opening and another couple of trendy hotels opened there before the pandemic so maybe it’ll improve). On the other hand, SOMA is pretty safe (except when crossing the street). It looks industrial and all that, but I feel perfectly safe walking there—safer than I do in some tourist hotspots (SF’s criminals’ favorite targets are tourists). But in any case, the best known gay bar left in SOMA, the Stud, I believe has closed. So if you’re planning on bar-hopping (if allowed), you’ll probably be mainly in the Castro.
