Their array of crystals, jewelry and decorative items are nicely arranged and I basically want it all! Nice staff who greeted us and were happy to answer any questions. Prices were a little higher than I was hoping but to be fair, you're in a small local shop that's in town off the beaten path. The fact that such a unique and fun shop exists in a little town like Fort Bragg is pretty cool. Definitely add them to your shopping adventures when you're in Mendocino County. They're down a side street off Main and there's plenty of free parking and other shops and cafes to visit and round out your Fort Bragg visit.

We spent one of our days casually strolling the downtown part of Mendocino, and searched for businesses we just had to check out. Of course, this means finding a good bookshop. And, this one did not disappoint! Such a fantastic selection of diverse books. Such fun gift ideas and home decor knick knacks and merch stuff, too. We are so loaded up on books (think stacks on stacks on stacks), but we wanted to support this business, so we bought a big candle and some fun stickers. I highly recommend Gallery Bookshop, and I'll definitely plan to return next time we're in the area.

It's just across from the coast.

We ended up walking out of the place with unicorn and mermaid birthday cake candle holders - such great bait for the kids. I ended up walking out with a handmade charcuterie board made by someone local --- the proprietress' husband, in fact. Funny story: we were walking around town when we saw a man selling a pile of charcuterie boards he was selling right there on his driveway. Unfortunately, he doesn't accept credit cards - he mentioned that his wife has a credit card machine. Lo and behold! After walking around some more, we found this shop selling his boards and it turns out, it was the woodworker's wife's! Anyway, great souvenir as it was made by a local artist and "Mendocino" was burned into the wood.

The prices are great, and I found some good pottery and they had so many cute teapots. Staff is friendly, I didn't get a chance to look through the clothes but the pricing sheet was very reasonable.

It was a little difficult to shop with my kiddos, but if you remember to put your stroller in the car (unlike me) it shouldn't be an issue.
