Great question! I'd try SF City College and SF State if you haven't already; they may have low- or no-cost meeting spaces you can use. You could also ask SUG what spaces they can recommend that come under the $300 budget, assuming their budget was based on being able to host a meetup in SF! Lots of tech companies are happy to host engineering meetups for free. It's free marketing for them, free professional development for their engineers, and in my experience they let you help yourself to any snacks they have on hand.
