Get to Know Bookseller’s Tavern

How It All Began

Bookseller’s Tavern came to life in 2000. Over the years, we have become a San Francisco institution. From our unmatched selection of books, accessories and gifts, to our acclaimed in-store event series, we have something to offer every type of booklover.

The truth is that books aren’t just our job. They’re our passion. We would be thrilled to help you find a specific title that you’re looking for or to lead you toward something unexpected. Stop by and say hello; let’s explore the magical world of literature together.

Services We Offer

There’s nothing we like more than matching a customer with a good book. Our talented staff is extremely knowledgeable and is here to help you pick a new favorite, add to your own collection, or repair your treasured tomes.

Bookbinding & Repair

There’s nothing invincible about ink on paper. But with a bit of care, decades or centuries-old books can be kept in beautiful condition. If you need help restoring literary works to their proper glory, we would be happy to take a look.

Subscriptions

Calling all voracious readers! Whether you would like to receive a package every month or a few times per year, we have a subscription option for you. Signed hardcovers, paperbacks, and other literary treats are coming your way.
