“Matt is great, Every time I head into this store I hope he's working! He has amazing manga recommendations and great customer service skills, never failing to make us smile at the register. Despite previous bad experiences here we always head to this location because of his customer service. Matt deserves a raise, more hours, all of it!”

“Fabulosa Books is......well........fabulous I really enjoy shopping here, They carry an extensive selection of books for the gay /LGBTQ community, as well as a selection of mainline books and best sellers. I can often find many hard-to-find and out of print book titles in the store, Fabulosa Books is an important store for San Francisco's Castro neighborhood, I look forward to stopping by often in the future.”

“An excellent source for graphic novels for school age kids, especially if you want more diversity than the typical marvel or DC approach. When I found out my 1st grader was trans, this store helped me find age appropriate books that they could see themselves in. And they in turn learned stories about brown kids, black kids, and immigrants from other graphic novels there that I would never have known existed. Staff are excellent and know their stock.”

“I can't say enough good things about the store and the people that work there (shout out to you Jo! and cashier and chief gift wrapper-didn't get her name sadly) I've only been there once before for a short time. I went yesterday with my dog (who was quite vocal that day) and we were embraced wholeheartedly. I got a mass of gifts for a friend's bday among their well-curated books and other items, and they were beautifully wrapped. The team also showered my dog with attention and snacks. and I felt like I was treated with such care. The store has such a homey, cozy, and lovely vibe! I will definitely be going back!”

“This is my go-to spot for books locally. There is a warm, friendly environment. It is very neat, organized, and clean - just how I would like my own library. It is well lit with lots of good features on display. Oh, and signing events with authors! Eragon! They do have medieval fantasy titles and books too! There is a whole section dedicated to that - more geared towards young adults. But it is good to see a few Dungeons & Dragons titles here and there! If you are a local teacher, inquire about the discount! For educational staff too, I think? This is valuable and a good way to support local bookstores.”

This independent bookstore is a MUST visit.”

“I was doing a walk about The Mission this early September afternoon. Medicinas para Pesadillas. Damn! Wasn’t that what I’m always looking for? I asked the staff for help selecting contemporary Mexican American literature. The thicker the better. Magical realism, dark psychologically themed short stories that make you question reality? Yes, por favor.The staff’s selections exceeded my expectations.Medicine for Nightmares indeed.”

“Gah! Just discovered that our favorite neighborhood bookstore is shutting down. We couldn't be sadder. We have loved going to folio books on the weekends to browse, and always order our books from them. Their staff is friendly and knowledgeable, and they have guided us to some favorite books over the years. it's unclear why the five owners decided to shutter the shop, and they have asked for privacy according to their website, but we want them to know how beloved the store has been to us and to the community. Thank you for everything, folio books!!”

“I went here a while back to buy some very affordable guitars when I was teaching myself how to play the guitar. I bought a nice electric guitar (Stratocaster style--I don't recall the brand) and a Rosa acoustic guitar. I also purchased a tambourine and a recorder. Even though they were not expensive, the employee (I think his name was Abraham) still added on an additional discount! What a deal! So, if you need to purchase an affordable guitar, which are displayed in the front window, this is just the place for you.”

“Nothing beats the satisfaction of holding and reading a physical book so this place is perfect. In addition to books, I go to Harvest for gifts to encourage others as well. And the owner, Margaret is just one of the nicest person you'll meet and she really loves God and people!”

“Soft opening right next to sweet cupz, sounds like competition but it has a really nice interior to sit down in, has wifi but no power outlets so come with a full battery or charge in the library nearby. Street parking in residential is recommended! I got the holy howl to experiment but it was alright, the coconut milk did not really add flavor to the avocados make a splash of condensed milk would have been nice. Also had some pieces of the pit in my drink too (hence the 4 stars) I'll still come back as they had food I wanted to try as well!”

“I found bunch of New books and bought 11 today for less than $25. But books are not organized at the shop so you will have to spend time to look for them. It's like going to a thrift bookstore except these are brand new books”

“I walked in, found some books, and then couldn't find one book but all I knew about was vague enough descriptions I couldn't Google.A team member helped me find the book in a few minutes and offered to order it to the store because it wasn't typically sticked. Pretty cool.”

“Excellent organization. They follow through with their customers, ask questions if they are unsure about your order, they have even given me tips on how to reduce costs. The products are all overly pricey, but thats the way it is with all church supply stores. Ive had the owner or ceo reach out to me in the past, and this past week I had a customer service question and the person who responded was the same owner/ceo”

“Great selection of books for a small store! They had so much in there I was surprised and impressed. The staff were super friendly and helpful and even helped me find the book I was looking for in the sale section as well, it was perfect they had it since I’d just finished the book before on the plane. Now I can read the next one! ?”
