San Francisco tobacconists

[nhhiggy]

Can anyone suggest a store with a decent variety of tobaccos in San Francisco downtown I have someone there wanting to bring home some supplies for her dad.

If it's in SF, then probably The Humidor..

There's others there and not too far away if she's going across any of the bridges.

Yeah, I don't know about San Francisco specifically now that Grant's is gone. The Piedmont Tobacconist is an easy BART ride to Oakland and they have a very nice shop with some excellent bulk selections, including Samuel Gawith. It's in a cool neighborhood that's worth a visitor's time anyway.

Nothing worthy in the City. Closest is in Mill Valley across the GGB.

From downtown SF, Piedmont Tobacco is closer; also much more available via public transit.
The SF Humidor seems dedicated to cigars, but I've never been there.

About an hour south is Paul’s pipe shop in Palo Alto.

The only tobacconist with a good selection in the Bay area is Telford's in Mill Valley.

There isn't much else. The Piedmont is a nice old store, and was the birthplace of the Esoterica line, but the selection isn't terribly diverse.

Sorry I made a mistake it’s not Paul’s it’s Edwards pipe shop.
