Belden Place is a narrow alley in the Financial District of San Francisco, California that serves as the hub of the city's small French American community.

The French, Italian, and Catalan establishments are popular with locals, tourists, and office workers, and are generally considered on par with the city's best casual full-service European restaurants.

Nearby are Café de la Presse (though modest and unassuming, a favorite hangout of the city's political and social elite) and Le Central.

The lane is closed to vehicular traffic and filled for lunch and dinner with portable chairs, tables, umbrellas, and outdoor heaters.

[4] Every year, the area is the site of a boisterous Bastille Day celebration, the nation's largest, and Bush Street is temporarily renamed Buisson.
