ABOUT SPARK SOCIAL SF
SPARK Social SF is a vibrant community gathering space in the heart of Mission Bay, designed to bring people together through food, fun, and shared experiences. Spanning across two blocks, SPARK Social SF is a dynamic food truck park, beer and sangria garden, and event venue, we partner with small businesses to create warm and welcoming spaces for the neighborhood to grub and gather. With a daily rotation of over 200 Bay Area food trucks, there’s always something new to discover.
The excitement extends beyond great eats—SPARK Social SF is also home to Stagecoach Greens, San Francisco’s only interactive outdoor miniature golf course. This immersive 18-hole course brings the city’s Boom and Bust history to life through interactive storytelling, making it a must-visit destination for families, friends, and corporate outings. Just across the street, unleash your inner artist with 1AMSF, where hands-on spray painting workshops invite guests to create bold group murals, custom canvases, or graffiti-style takeaways using paint markers and spray cans. Whether you’re teeing off at Stagecoach Greens, painting the town, or enjoying a drink in the beer garden, SPARK Social SF is your go-to spot for community, creativity, and play.
Developed by the team behind SoMa StrEat Food Park and built in partnership with Parklab, SPARK Social SF transforms vacant lots into thriving social spaces in SF’s newest neighborhood. Crafted by LMNOP Design, our space was created to inspire connection— great food, fun, and community should always go hand in hand.

The Infatuation – “One of SF’s best new cheeseburgers comes from a little red truck in Mission Bay“
“This is burger minimalism at its best. On the surface, it may look like just a regular ole smashburger, a classic style of burger that features a ball of ground meat smashed thin and griddled until crispy and browned, affording the opportunity for a maximum Maillard reaction. But as delicious as smashburgers are, sometimes I want a patty with substance—ground beef with a bite. The cheeseburger at Burger Littles offers just that.”

These places have coloring materials, dining rooms where a child’s ear-splitting shriek will go unnoticed, and menus that’ll appease even the pickiest five-year-olds.

Eater – “21 of San Fanciscoʻs Essential Coffee Shops.”
“Stationed inside the Spark Social food truck park in Mission Bay, this mobile coffee stand is known for its slightly offbeat, Instagram-friendly coffee drinks like the stunning, off-menu Black Swan — a latte variant made with activated charcoal — and a cold-brew coffee that’s garnished with edible flowers. As far as coffee trucks go, the eclectic food menu is also surprisingly extensive.”
