And another great bookstore closes shop and moves away from the tangible world.

Fields Book Store was the «portal to the universe» I spent many hours, many dollars, and found many answers inside that store. Fields was an institution on Polk St, as was Freed & Teller (the coffee roasters). Stores that reflected a historical bygone area, like something you would find in old Boston. I started going there the late 70’s. The original owner was still alive then. Both she and the store were like something out of a Harry Potter movie. Both were wonderful. It was a place where you could discover many, many, many things. Im so blessed to have been able to have such a wonderful resource to help me discover myself and grow as a human being. Godspeed Fields Book Store!

I’d like to visit again before they close their doors — such a great shop. I’m bummed to see them go. I look forward to supporting the online operations. Still, sad to see them close, what a gem!
Super nice people, huge variety and I love the atmosphere.

I have been going to 80 year old Field’s Bookstore since my old hippie mother brought me here for the first time back in the late 70’s.
With the ceiling-​high book shelves and sliding ladders, the astronomy-​themed painted ceiling and the wonderful selection of occult, philosophy and religious books, Fields Bookstore was the oldest and best independent bookstore in San Francisco.
You will be missed… :(!

This store is wonderful, they have a little bit of everything. I could spend hours in there… So sad that I just found it and already it will be going away.
You should definitely visit before you miss the chance. You aren’t easily going to find another one like it.

Nooooo!!! Someday everyone’s gonna be REALLY SORRY they didn’t support independant bookstores. This place was older than the GG Bridge.
Fare well, dear Fields. We’ll meet in cyberspace.
Hey, folks. Please support the indie/​neighborhood bookstores near you!!!

A really wonderful place to shop for occult, religion and philosophy books. Overwhelming at times it’s a really great place to just pop in to explore to kill time, or if you’re on the search for something special. My only complaint — the chaos books are too high up :)
It’s a fabulous place, and an SF institution! Support local!

Fields is one of my favorite bookstores, and a San Francisco icon. It is distinguished by its extremely well-​curated collection of essential and hard-​to-​find items. I’ve found books there I had only read about, and plenty that I had never heard of.
My interests lead me to the Buddhism, philosophy, psychology, and classics departments, but there are many more sections of great interest spanning a great range of cultures, periods, and styles.
The owner is extremely knowledgeable and helpful, and the location makes it easy to get to. Highly recommended.

Hard to believe that this kind of specialty store still exists. If you’re looking for books on Zoroastrianism, the fate of Atlantis, different translations of the Zohar, or the stories of Chretien de Troyes, here’s the store for you. Very mellow and knowledgeable staff. Definitely a good place to browse and find hidden treasures.

Right here on lil’ ol Polk St. One of the richest collections of esoterica in the world! Do yourself a favor and take two hours to browse and soak up the vibe.

Thank goodness there are still a few bookstores like Fields still in existence. With booksellers dropping like flies its a breath of fresh air to see a store like Fields with its wonderful collection of metaphysical, philosophical and esoteric book selection.
Fields is a great destination store and the people who run it are really nice and genuinely helpful.
I loved that they had some harder to find indie books and check out their book specials in the back for some great reads at hugely discounted prices.

Found this book shop, paid them a visit, and loved everything in it. They have everything you could ever want relating to metaphysics. They have books on the occult, world religions, philosophy, herbology, and the best assortment of tarot decks and guide books I’ve seen anywhere. I love the look of the store, with old wooden ladders leading up to shelves of books way, way up high. This store is so quintessential San Francisco. There’s just nothing like it.

Excellent book store for you metaphysical, magikal, and esoteric philosophical needs. I wish I was an occultist with $ (aren’t they all supposed to be moneyed?), there is just so much here I’d love to read.

Fields is great. I’ve been in three times since I’ve been visiting San Francisco, and never managed to walk out without buying at least ONE book. Excellent selection, and I attended a lecture/​signing there last week that was also great. Fields ships worldwide, and they do have a nice website one can browse and use to locate titles (easier to do so this way than looking all over the shelves as I like to do). Wonderful collection of books – my favorite bookshop in San Francisco, without a doubt.

I didn’t buy anything, but they had books on EVERYTHING metaphysical.
A cute little small place. I know if I never need anything metaphysical, I’ll come here.

This is a nice quiet place with a friendly and helpful staff.
When I need a good dose of self-​help, I’ll stop in and pick something up.

This store contains a vast playground of alternative philosophies.
The New Thought section is just inside the front door. The deeper I go into the room, the deeper the alternatives become. I always find something fascinating to browse.
My Lady dropped in here to see if they had an apocryphal text, and they did. In Spanish. Nevertheless, as usual, she found something that would be useful, and made a purchase before we left.
If you’re looking for something specific, you might want to call ahead.

A tremendous source of metaphysical books with its laddered walls of tomes, both Sacred and Profane.
A place of great power.
