If you're an animal, latte, cafe, art lover, & enjoy tranquility this might be the garden that you…read moremust a visit! When I enjoy the Cedros art district I like to stop by Grange Garden. It's a nice cafe in Solana Beach. The service is amazing and their specialty Lattes are what I go for. I enjoy the French and Brazilian cafe music they play in the background. I enjoyed the coastal breeze. While you sip and enjoy a treat you can perhaps play tic tac toe and or other games on the front patio/ picket fenced in yard. Super cute place! The Lattes I go for are The Gardener (lavender, honey, vanilla) and The Farmer(vanilla and brown sugar). Made with organic espresso and love. We've even enjoyed visiting the bunnies for 22$ per person (plus tip if you'd like too) gives you about 20-30 minutes of interaction with the bunnies. You sign a waiver with the host and they'll give you instructions on the rules. You might even get to feed them too. I loved it so much! I grew up with bunnies as pets so this was soooo nostalgic for me! Come and support this family owned business and perhaps pet a bunny. You'll like it a lotte! *they do have a handwashing station too. In case you are wondering about that.

Came in for a coffee, accidentally enrolled in a masterclass on How Not to Order Coffee…read more I ordered a cappuccino and asked for it iced. Apparently this was a deeply offensive request, because I was immediately informed, "So really you just want a short latte," followed by a staff discussion about how people don't know how to order coffee. Then, while I was simply standing there waiting for the drink I had paid for, they started making comments about me waiting. Truly fascinating. I didn't realize there was also a correct and incorrect way to stand near a coffee counter. Eventually they wrote "cap" on my cup and called it out, so I grabbed it and said, "Thanks for my short latte." For a place serving coffee, they somehow managed to make ordering one feel like an oral exam I had failed. If you enjoy being lightly bullied by your barista over espresso terminology, this may be your spot. I personally will be getting my incorrectly named beverages elsewhere.

Surprisingly they have a very large selection of decorative and clay pots. Granted they are pretty overpriced (vs Home goods for example) but if the cost is not an issue the variety is amazing. Lots of fun little trinkets for outdoor decorating of your garden or just general outdoor space around a house. Overall well stocked store, not much of gardening equipment except gloves and shovels. But they do have large selection of fertilizers and such other plant food. They also sell Christmas trees when in season, prices are pretty competitive and their trees are high quality and beautiful. I remember getting a gift card with my Christmas tree purchase . If you bring a tree stand back you also get a discount.

Absolutely outdid my Pinterest dreams, and without a doubt it would not have been the same without her. I barely had an idea of what I wanted when I came to her besides color palette, because I have no knowledge of flower types and every time I attempted to explain what I was thinking, she hit the nail on the head! She also had great suggestions to enhance my ideas and made it so unique. I cannot tell you how many people told me I had the best wedding florals they have ever seen, even people I barely know that saw photos on social media. Not to mention she is so sweet and so great to work with and we just love her!

My last visit I got their Grapefruit & Mangosteen Scented Goat Milk Lotion. I wear this everyday and since it's made out of goat milk it's perfect for my sensitive skin.

The selection is limited, the space in South Park is cramped. It feels like the price needs to go down by about 40-50%. My husband spent $350 on an arrangement at NP. I went somewhere else for my mom's flowers, saw an arrangement I LOVED and it was bigger and cost $180. So yeah, I think Naive Poppy and I are parting ways.
