The San Francisco spots I’d send you to before anywhere else in town.
Comment GUIDE and I’ll send you my Local San Francisco Guide.
These are the local shops I actually spend my money at — and the ones I send clients to when they want to discover the best of San Francisco beyond the obvious names.
* Emily Joubert in Laurel Heights. One of my absolute favorites for holiday decor, candles, and beautifully curated pieces for the home.
* The Future Perfect on Sacramento Street. One of my favorite stops for collectible design, statement furniture, and pieces you won’t see everywhere else.
* Heidi Says on Fillmore Street. A beautifully edited local boutique for fashion that feels polished without trying too hard.
* The Bud Shop in Cow Hollow. My go-to for fresh flowers when a home needs that final finishing touch.
* Anthem in Presidio Heights. The place for sophisticated home accessories, furniture, art, and gifts that instantly make a space feel more considered.
They’re the kinds of businesses that make San Francisco feel personal — beautifully curated, independently minded, and worth going out of your way for.
Tag the ones I missed. I’m always adding to the list.
