FLGS in San Fran or Palo Alto area?

[johnsemlak]

Title says it all. I"m in hte area visiting a friend and would like to find a good one before heading home. Emphasis on d20 stuff and D&D Minis.

THanks in advance

San Francisco: Gamescape on Divisidero.
Berkeley: Games of Berkeley (right by the Berkeley BART station).
Oakland: Endgame (near the 17th street BART station, iirc).

Games of Berkeley is the best one in terms of selection, though all three stores are good.

There used to be a Gamescape in Palo Alto, but it closed down shortly before I moved away from SF & Stanford. I never found any other game shop in PA.

You might also try Gator Games in San Mateo, which isn't far from Palo Alto.

Berkeley: Games of Berkeley (right by the Berkeley BART station).

Games of Berkeley is the best one in terms of selection, though all three stores are good.

Is this somewhere next to this Sci-Fi bookshop and the very large one with used books?

EDIT: Found it on a map. It's on the opposite side of the street. I must have been blind *shrug*.
