I don't like to write negative reviews; however, I had a distasteful experience and I'm hoping Minimal does better. We liked a lot of the items there, but I distinctly remember the woman at the front desk not acknowledging us at any point during our stay (not when we walked in, not once during our 15-minute visit, no small talk during checkout, and nothing when we left). Of course, if there were several customers and she was busy with other people, we wouldn't have minded. However, we were the only ones in the store. We were genuinely interested in many of the items, yet she didn't care to speak to us even once. It doesn't take much to greet or acknowledge your customers. Furthermore, the establishment is situated in one of the most tourist-heavy areas of SF. Not everyone who walks in will make a purchase; however, that should not provide a justification for ignoring those whom you may perceive as unlikely to buy anything. As a business owner, it's expected that you treat each person who enters the door with respect.

This is the real thing. Probably the last designer home accessories store in San Francisco it would seem. Yes, you can buy at a brick and mortar store and still find helpful service in 2019. The merchandise runs the gamut from old classics to new finds. There is a lot crammed into what is a pretty small space. I am glad it has hung on over the years. It is a great place to find a house or wedding gift. Plus, you will always find something you must have for yourself. They are helpful and will go out of their way to assist you. They even offered to gift wrap for me without my asking. After ordering glassware as a gift twice on Amazon and having them arrive totally broken, I just went here and got the same thing for the same price (plus the wrapping). Places like this are rare these days, and it feels good to shop local.

The amazing thing is why I waited so long to review a business that I’ve been in love with for 14 years! When designer Kristina Runske opened her store on a prime commercial stretch of San Francisco’s Hayes Valley neighborhood, Minimal quickly became my go-to brick and mortar for reasonably priced unique gifts for any occasion.

Elegant modern home decor, furniture, and innovative product boutique. It is a great place to shop local and finding affordable yet amazing designer goods from Europe, Japan and United States. I love everything about the store. It really represents Hayes Valley.

Great home goods, friendly service. Sadly, some of them are out of my price range right now but I can dream, right? If you're looking for really clean, well designed furniture and accents for your home this is definitely worth a visit. Shop local!
