The Pickled Hutch
1605 Church Street at 28th Street
415-641-8875
A treasure trove of bygones and delights
Finds for the garden
Love the awkwardness of the figure in this painting
That is, if your door is in San Francisco's Noe Valley. This shop, to me, is so quintessentially San Francisco. The San Francisco of Armstead Maupin's Tales of the City. The San Francisco before the Silicon Valley boom. The San Francisco before the Stud moved to 9th Street...
Shops like this, and their owners, should be encouraged and nurtured; especially in times like these.

looks like a great shop. I really like the painting too.
Oooooh, I'm going to San Francisco on Thursday...I'm going to go to this shop! I too miss the SF from my college days. It isn't even close to being like it was.
Thanks a million for the mention and kind words of support. By the way, I loved the Stud before it moved. It was a blast for everyone. Do you remember Earls?
Take care,

This is the kind of shop I would love to have! Looks like a wonderful place!
I'm heading out there soon to visit my sister, so I'll definitely visit it. Looks so charming!
Great looking shop.Forever ago I lived extremely close to it.The Stud,Earls...were we ALL hanging together at 181 Eddy? Nine??
