Embarcadero Night Skate & Pizza

Embarcadero Night Skate & Pizza

Sat, Nov 21, 3:30 AM
From Gist IRL SF
4.7

**RSVP via:** https://app.gistirl.com/event-details/uAYeW8e993ZaoVscFCH1?utm_source=meetup&utm_content=a **Early Bird Discounts | More $ Later** Hey late-night rollers, Come feel the cool bay breeze and catch the rhythm of the Friday night skate beats along the Embarcadero with a fresh crew. Join me for an easygoing evening where we'll start with an hour of app-guided chats to meet some great people, and then form small groups to hit the pavement and grab some food. We'll spend the first part of the night jumping into quick one-on-one rounds. The Gist IRL app sets up the pairings for us, giving you a chance to easily chat with other active folks who love being out after the sun goes down. After we break the ice, we get to the best part. You'll choose the people you clicked with most, join the Friday night roll along the Embarcadero, and grab late-night pizza slices together. By the end of the night, you have a solid crew of 4-6 to cruise the waterfront with and split late-night pizza slices. Whether this bunch becomes your regular Friday night roll crew or it's just one incredibly fun evening under the city lights, you'll be glad you brought your gear. The Plan: - 7:30PM: Check-In. Follow the link to set up your quick profile on your phone. - 7:35PM - 8:55PM: One-on-One Rounds. The app pairs you for focused chats. Find out who shares your late-night energy, favorite routes, and passion for moving after dark. - 8:55PM+: Form Groups & head down the Embarcadero together to catch the skate beats and grab late-night pizza slices. Reconnect with your favorite matches, form groups of 4-6, and head down the Embarcadero together to catch the skate beats and grab late-night pizza slices — your group leaves together tonight. Instead of just adding random names to your phone, let's actually join the night roll and grab pizza tonight. You might just meet the exact right people for future night rolls and late-night food spots to explore together. And to make things totally seamless, you can use the app to message your new friends later on without ever having to trade phone numbers. I can't wait to hit the waterfront and catch some miles with you all tonight. A few favorite spots nearby: Joyride Pizza (Pier 1) - Steps away along the waterfront, this breezy outpost dishes out caramelized-edge Detroit square slices and local soft serve with prime bay views. Golden Boy Pizza - An iconic North Beach counter serving cult-favorite, focaccia-style square slices like clam-and-garlic late into the night. Tony's Coal-Fired Pizza & Slice House - World pizza champion Tony Gemignani's bustling walk-up window serves award-winning, crispy New York and Sicilian slices to go. Escape from New York Pizza - A casual Financial District staple slinging classic, foldable thin-crust slices until the early morning hours. Joyride Pizza (Market Street) - Walkable straight up lower Market from the plaza, this late-night outpost keeps the oven fired until 2 a.m. for crispy, cheesy Detroit-style slabs. **RSVP via:** https://app.gistirl.com/event-details/uAYeW8e993ZaoVscFCH1?utm_source=meetup&utm_content=a **Early Bird Discounts | More $ Later**
