My kind of media❣️ This music store is huge, well organized and clean. You can spend hours browsing through music, dvds, posters, t-shirts, and vhs movies. There is more but too much to list.

★★★★☆ — Sandra, 2024-03

Amoeba is great. It's a staple. I've been to the one in LA many times, the old location and the new, but this is my first time at the SF location. It's very cool that it's located in the Haight-Ashbury district, with all the rock history there. The store itself is very familiar.
