I’m coming over to California in July, more specifically I’m going to San Francisco and Los Angeles (end places between them). I was wondering if anybody knows some Catholic shops there you could recommend?

Most importantly, I’m looking for a Rosary. If anyone knows some good place, I look forward to your replies! 🙂

There is a gift shop in the Shrine of St. Francis (the shrine itself is well worth the visit. there is a 3/4 scale reproduction of San Damiano). If you happen to swing by San Jose, Our Lady of Peace is also worth a visit and includes a gift shop.

Rosaries can be picked up almost anywhere, including the above named shops. You can even make one, if you like. I think there is a rosary making group within these forums someplace if you want to know more about that.
 
If you have much free time, it could be worthwhile to visit one or more of the old missions established by Bl Junipero Serra and his Franciscans. Many of them also have shops which feature items unique to the missions.

If you are in San Jose you might want to stop by The Cathedral Basilica of St. Joseph.

There is also a Christian bookstore in San Jose, Berean Chrisitan Stores. It is not entirely Catholic but they do have a section for Catholics.

Our Lady Of Peace Catholic Church in Santa Clara, CA has a very nice gift shop.

If you’re in Culver City, there’s a Pauline Bookstore on Sepulveda Blvd, just south of Venice Blvd: 3908 Sepulveda Boulevard Culver City, CA 90230. They have a great selection of books, but even more imprtantly they have an integral adoration chapel that is open so long as the store is.
