San Francisco has no shortage of tortillas. What it does not have is an H-E-B. The grocer runs stores only in Texas and Mexico, so a Texan who moved to the Bay Area cannot pick up the bakery flour tortillas they grew up with on a normal grocery run. This page is for that cook: someone in the Sunset, the Mission or Noe Valley who wants a soft flour tortilla for breakfast tacos, or a specific pack they remember from home. Lonestar Tortillas buys genuine H-E-B tortillas in Austin and ships them to California, so a Texas kitchen habit can carry on in a San Francisco apartment.

Texas tortillas in San Francisco

San Francisco is a burrito town. The Mission burrito, the large foil-wrapped style built on a steamed flour tortilla, takes its name from the Mission District and is widely traced to the neighborhood's taquerias in the 1960s. People here know what a good burrito should hold, and plenty of home cooks build their own.

Texas tortilla habits run a little differently. The breakfast taco, with eggs, potato, bacon or beans folded into a small soft flour tortilla, is a Texas staple tied closely to Austin and San Antonio. Fajitas, grilled skirt steak served with flour tortillas, came out of South Texas ranch country. Both dishes depend on the flour tortilla itself tasting like something, and that is the gap H-E-B tortillas fill for Texans living here.

The city also has an organized Texas presence. The Texas Exes, the University of Texas alumni association, has a San Francisco Bay Area Chapter. If you are cooking for a game day gathering of fellow Texans, tortillas from home are an easy thing to bring to the table. Cooks across the bay can find the same products on our Oakland, Fremont and San Jose pages.

Questions from San Francisco

How long does shipping to San Francisco take?
UPS Ground delivery to San Francisco, California takes 3–5 business days after the ship date. The next shipment leaves Austin Tuesday, Nov 17; order by Monday, Nov 16, 9 PM CT and it should arrive Fri, Nov 20 – Tue, Nov 24.
Is shipping to San Francisco free?
Yes. Every order ships free once it reaches the $80 minimum. Subscribe & Save deliveries need $60.
How should I store the tortillas when they get to San Francisco?
H-E-B Bakery tortillas (Flour, Butter and Wheat) ship at room temperature; put them in the fridge when they arrive, where they keep about 2 weeks, or freeze them for up to 3 months. Pantry tortillas are shelf-stable until opened; follow the package directions after that.
San Francisco already has good tortillas. Why would I order H-E-B ones?
Mostly because you want that particular tortilla. H-E-B has no stores outside Texas and Mexico, so its bakery flour and butter tortillas are not on the shelf at Bay Area grocers. If you grew up with them, or want to cook Texas breakfast tacos the way you remember, these are the same packs sold in Texas stores.
Which H-E-B tortilla works for a Mission-style burrito?
The H-E-B Burrito Grande Flour Tortillas. They are the extra-large size in the lineup and come ten to a pack. The bakery and fajita flour tortillas are smaller and better suited to tacos and fajitas.
What is the difference between the two butter tortillas?
The H-E-B Bakery Butter Tortillas are made fresh in the store bakery section and are the softer, richer of the two. The H-E-B Butter Flour Tortillas are a separate packaged product with the same buttery flavor. Both come 20 to a pack and both suit breakfast tacos and quesadillas.
