Why this plan works
The 3 stops cover about 0.1 miles total, which keeps you in one pocket of San Ramon instead of crossing town between them. The Slanted Door San Ramon is the main event and takes the biggest block of time; the other stops are built around it. It finishes at Fieldwork San Ramon — a short, low-effort stop you can skip if you're ready to call it. Best suited to couples, friends, and solo who want a planned San Ramon outing without improvising between stops.
