Quite a good store - have a lot of local & regional favorites (like Richard Donnelly's bars & Lilliebelle Farms' truffles) as well as a huge range of brands. Guy there is great, loves to talk chocolate.

Bittersweet Cafe I have heard is good. I send friends that go to SF there to pick up selections of chocolate bars for me, they always have good things to say about the store. They have a website too.

Not strictly a chocolate shop but one of the best selection of bars on the coast is at Fog City News - Adam Smith is the proprietor.

Also check out XOX, Neo Cocoa (Christine Doerr), and Jade (Mindy Fong).

Try www.chocomap.com
It's a good place to start.

Hi Mark.
Actually that was the first thing I did; then I thought I would have too much information without necessarily knowing what was what - I live in Manhattan and I did the same thing. I ended up going to some very odd places!
Chocomap is a good way to start, but it is always nice to have some personal feedback - which just made me think about something. It would be nice if chocomap would allow us to add comments to the stores they have listed. Now that would be helpful.
