Lola of North Beach is a little boutique that carries original and funny cards, kitsch and collectibles objects, and locally made postcards. The name comes from the owner’s Filipino grandmother, a tindahan owner in the Philippines. Customers say the design of the products is better than typical tourist store items, and the postcards are much better than the ones in other tourist stores. The shop sells fridge magnets and accepts cards. It is a must‑visit for anyone who loves buying gifts from travels, way better than cookie‑cutter gift shops all over the city.
such a cute store! the little souvenirs are so so so cute. they also have a wall of jellycats that you can buy!

Bought two unique cards. Very nice. $12 each plus tax. Clerk asked if I wanted a bag for the cards. Charged me $0.25 for a bag. I just spent $24 + tax on two cards. Think you could give a free paper bag? 1 star reduction...

Very cool gift shop. I am a sucker for anything with my name on it. I saw this very cool license plate and bought it right away. Friendly service. Store has unique gifts.
