The Cable Car Store — Local services in San Francisco

The Cable Car Store is such a gem! Located right at Pier 39, it’s the perfect stop for anyone looking to bring a piece of San Francisco home. This place is packed with a wide range of regional souvenirs — from classic cable car replicas and Golden Gate Bridge-themed items to quirky gifts, cozy sweatshirts, mugs, magnets, and ornaments. Everything feels thoughtfully curated and represents the spirit of the city in a fun and colorful way.

What I really appreciated was the variety — whether you're shopping for yourself, your kids, or looking for gifts for friends and family, there’s truly something for everyone.
