So happy this little gem is chugging along in this world of big box stores and A__n. Of course I couldnt get two feet in the store before seeing a book I wanted. Its located, aptly, in a former butcher shop, with the big meat hanger and meat locker still there. Its wide selection of carefully curated books, old and new, all about food, is a feast for the readers eyes.
Such a quality bookstore. Just went here yesterday to buy four books in preparation for a new job and I felt like it really put my mind at ease. Theyve got every kind of cookbook you could be searching for! Staff was friendly and not pretentious or rude when I said I might need to get rid of some books from the ones I chose because of my budget. I recommend this place to anyone from beginning cook, bartender, or expert chef.
This bookshop is a real San Francisco treasure. It is super cozy yet stocked with the most formidable collection of books on food, wine, spirits etc. Browsing it is a pleasure, and you are sure to make multiple serendipitous discoveries. The owner, Celia, is super knowledgeable and welcoming. Their events are fantastic - always interesting and fun. Make sure to get on their email list!
An excellent niche bookstore just for cookbooks. Not just current print stuff but older books from across the decades. The staff was very knowledgeable and helpful in finding what I need. The only reason Im giving them 4 stars instead of 5 is that the books appear to only be loosely grouped together without labeling on the shelves. Besides that, if you are looking for a specific cookbook odds are they have it
Eclectic collection of books on food. We didnt have a lot of time to spend before closing, but it definitely seemed worth another visit. My ten year old found a book on history of doughnuts that really interested her and a teen cookbook that we are hoping will inspire her.
A small, independent bookstore that specializes in culinary-themed books, mostly cookbooks. I wouldnt go out of my way to visit this place, mainly because of its size, but I like to stop by if Im in the neighborhood. The building used to be a butcher shop, and they still have some of the old equipment as well as the old freezer room, which they use for storage. Be sure to check it out if youre there.

2021-08-29An exceptional niche bookstore if you have any interest in cooking, food or restaurants. I could spend hours going through their selection of books about food, old menus and so much more. Exceptionally curated and the folks who work there are incredibly knowledgeable. Can’t wait to visit again someday!

2021-04-08I could’ve spent all day in here. Though it’s quite a small store, there are TONS of cookbooks. New releases, used books, antique books.The owner (didn’t catch her name) was extremely welcoming and very nice. I really appreciated that. We’re both big fans of Julia Turshen! I picked up ‘Made in India’ by Meera Sodha.This place is heaven for home cooks! Can’t wait to come back and pick up another book. ❤️

2019-05-17Perfect little book store. I came looking for a book on food history and they did not disappoint. Expansive collection, well organized, and friendly and knowledgable staff. Only warning is you may leave with 5 more books than you intended to 😘. Enjoy!
