An independent guide to shopping San Francisco, from Union Square and the Ferry Building to Hayes Valley, the Haight and the Mission. Independently run. Updated weekly.
Thirteen shopping districts, from Union Square's flagships and Jackson Square's Gold Rush blocks to the 1898 Ferry Building, the oldest Chinatown in North America and the Mission's Valencia Street.
Chinatown, Jackson Square, North Beach and the Ferry Building are all within a mile of Union Square; the rest are a short Muni ride away. Tap a pin to see what's there.
Gold Rush brick blocks that survived 1906, an 1898 ferry terminal turned food hall and the oldest Chinatown in North America are all a short ride apart.
1850s
Jackson Square goes up in brick
San Francisco's oldest commercial blocks, brick and cast-iron buildings from the 1850s, survived 1906 and now hold designer boutiques and art galleries.
The 1898 ferry terminal at the foot of Market Street now holds about 40 food shops, makers and restaurants, with a large farmers market three days a week.
