On your next trip to San Francisco, be sure to visit Union Square, one of the largest shopping areas in the U.S. and home to department stores, luxury shops and specialty stores.
Union Square is one of the best districts in San Francisco for creative types to shop. Blick Art Materials is one of the largest and oldest providers of art supplies in the country. Artfibers sells unique yarns for arts, crafts and fashion, while Britex Fabrics has been a landmark shop for sewing enthusiasts and clothing designers since 1952.
Luxury shopping is well represented in Union Square, from jewelry at Tiffany & Co. and Shreve & Company, to Lang Antiques and the Ferrari Store. If you’re in the market for fine art, the Weinstein Gallery has a museum-quality collection of art from 20th century masters like Picasso, Chagall and Miro. Union Square is also the best place in San Francisco to find upscale department stores such as Macy’s and Nordstrom, as well as familiar brands such as Levi’s and Banana Republic.
For the romantics out there, be sure to stop into Aricie Lingerie and then take care of that sweet tooth at See’s Candies or Ghirardelli Chocolate Shop.
