Crocker Galleria

A favorite among discerning San Francisco shoppers, this mall's selection includes 40 high-end stores showcasing classic designer creations. Located about three blocks east of Union Square, the glass-domed, three-level pavilion houses everything from Polo Ralph Lauren and Bossa to Ravits Watches & Jewelry and Aricie Lingerie. Foodies rejoice over the fantastic dining options here, too, which include New Asia Asian Cuisine, the San Francisco Soup Company and Leila Mediterranean Cuisine. Crocker is an appealing space even for a quick walk-through since both ends are open, which allows fresh air and easy access. New stores that arrived in 2013 include the popular "Project Juice."
