Browser Books

Browser Books is a general-interest bookstore at 2195 Fillmore St, at Sacramento. It has been a San Francisco bookseller since 1976, and it is an old-fashioned bookshop in the best sense: carefully chosen titles, a friendly and welcoming atmosphere, and room to browse.

What’s on the shelves

The store carries new books in nearly all subject areas, and is best known for its comprehensive selection of fiction and literature, both classic and contemporary. You will also find:

  • Children’s books
  • Biography and memoir
  • Cooking
  • Mysteries and science fiction

Part of the Green Apple family

In 2019, Green Apple Books, the Richmond District independent, bought Browser Books and kept the Browser name. The shop on Fillmore Street stays its own neighborhood bookstore, now with the backing of another longtime San Francisco bookseller.
