There are a few here in the Bay Area... well, quite a few really, so
I'll just give you the best ones I've found.

Curios & Candles (289 Divisadero, San Francisco)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Everything under one roof.  Books on every occult subject, magickal tools 
and jewelry, incenses... you name it, you'll find it here.  Easily the 
best occult-shop in SF.

Tools of Magick  (1915 Page St., San Francisco)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A shop with incenses, books, etc., mostly geared toward Paganism/Wicca.

Sword & Rose  (85 Carl St., San Francisco)
~~~~~~~~~~~~
A very small, hard-to-find shop that carries mainly incenses and ritual 
tools, along with a few books and local 'zines.  Largely Pagan-oriented, 
but ask the owner (Randy) about Thelemic stuff, and he'll love you for it.

Ancient Ways  (Somewhere in Oakland)
~~~~~~~~~~~~
Again, whatever it is you're looking for, here it is.  A veritable 
supermarket of occult books and products.  The staff is excellent and 
have a very broad base of knowledge on occult subjects.  If a fellow 
named Ebony is about, make sure and talk to him about whatever it is 
you're into.  There probably isn't a single topic, however obscure, that 
he can't point you in the right direction about.  I really can't say 
enough good things about this place, so I won't try  :=}

There are *lots* of others in the Bay Area, but these are tops in my 
book.  And, if you do make it to any of these stores, make sure and pick 
up a copy of "Kallisti Catalyst."  (sorry, couldn't resist - but a little 
shameless self-promotion hasn't killed anyone yet).
