Maido Fine Stationery & Gifts - San Francisco

MaiDo has 2 stores. The gift shop (with cute stuff) is on the first floor. The main store is right up the stairs on the second floor and has more office and school supplies.

This is such a great store! I've been to a fair number of stationary stores in the city and this is by far one of my favorites. Fantastic selection of anything you could need.

If you are a pen or pencil freak like me, this is your place!! The prices can be high however I found writing utensils here that I've never even heard of or came across elsewhere! It's worth the trip and Japantown on it's own is a really neat place to see!! We came just so I could check out this shop and discovered so much more.

Very cute place. It doesn't carry all the items I'd usually buy but it has the products you won't find in most art/stationery stores. It's much more expensive, though, and they don't seem to offer discounts and memberships. But it's still fun to walk around in, you're likely to browse for hours.

They have lots of cool stuff and good brands that's hard to find in other places. They are a bit expensive but it's expected, and it's a place with great atmosphere especially if you're an artist or into bullet journaling, etc.
