Brand X Antiques

The gay couple who own this shop have a discerning and humorous eye. In addition to baubles and furniture, the collection also features tongue-in-cheek vintage homoerotica.
Carol Doda’s Champagne & Lace Lingerie Boutique

Bodywear for women and men, brought to you by the infamous entertainment pioneer who brought topless dancing to San Francisco in the 1960s. Naturally, the emphasis is on risqué styles.
Castro District

Fine shops, gay bookstores and erotic boutiques.
Chestnut Street

Clothing boutiques, health-food shops, and an old-fashioned cinema.
Christopher-Clark Fine Art

Another gallery for modern European masters. A good stock of Bay Area artists, too.
Claudia Chapline Gallery and Sculpture Garden

In a great setting near the beach, the Chapline sculpture garden is full of delights, especially the brilliant kinetic pieces driven by the wind, which are the work of Lyman Whitaker. Inside, the variety and quality of painted and mixed-media work is very compelling.
Collectibles of Asia

In a complete departure from the usual kitsch of Pier 39, this shop offers genuine Chinese antiques at very affordable prices. You can find carvings, masterful ceramics, and much more.
Comix Experience

Comics with adult aficionados in mind: The Ring of the Nibelung , The Filth , Naughty Bits , Static-X , Peculia , and Automatic Kafka are just a few of the whacky titles awaiting you in new and vintage issues.
Cost Plus

The original world import mart that set the trend for all the others. It can still surprise with a well-chosen item from some far-away land.
Crescendo

Unusual and colorful women’s fashions are the eye-catcher here – with fabrics that emphasize luxury and sensuousness. A sidewalk anchor shop to a very intriguing mini-mall that faces the Bay at the back.
