Central Brisbane, located on the lower slopes of San Bruno Mountain, is a quaint neighborhood known for its unique character and scenic housing landscape. The area features a mix of larger postmodern homes, Great Depression-era cottages, bungalows, split-levels, and Spanish designs, many with balconies offering views of the Santa Cruz Mountain Range and San Francisco Bay. The neighborhood's Main Street USA-style downtown, centered on Visitacion Avenue, is lined with local eateries, family-owned stores, and coffee shops like Madhouse Coffee and Ichika Sushi House. For grocery needs, residents can visit Midtown Market or the weekly Brisbane Farmer’s Market. Central Brisbane hosts numerous events, including the annual Festival of Lights and the widely attended Day in the Park and Derby.
