When we went on a Saturday afternoon, there were only 2 other parties picking in the fields with us! There is a large parking lot and small grocery market at the front of the fields with all that you could ask for. The service was a little short and unfriendly with us at first, but warmed up to us later.

This little Roadside convenient shop Is a mystery wrapped in a riddle…read more Who are they? Why not sign out front? Is this a front for a big peanut? What does R&R even stand for? "Rest and relaxation"? "Root beer and rum"? Maybe we will never know. Let's get the easy stuff out of the way:: Ambience: you wouldn't even know the places there if you don't have a map leading you there or a referral from a local unfortunately. Not sure why they don't have a sign out. Service is a little irrelevant since there is simply a person behind the counter checking you out. Now onto the product: there really is only one offering that is hard to pass these guys by for if you're in Pascadero area: R&R offer a cup of peanut for $4 that is magically delicious and snackable. did President Jimmy Carter have peanuts this delicious from his peanut farm? I submit that he did not? Pro tip: Do not have them around if you feel an oncoming snack attack. You'll possibly consume the entire cup o' vegan legumes which brings me to an interesting factoid: did you know that a peanut is neither a pea nor a nut? It is indeed a legume. The peanut is more like one of those hideous lentils then delicious pea or a delicious nut. Why!? This seems so unnecessary. I wouldn't be surprised to find That President Jimmy Carter President Obama somehow Secretly teamed up to rename and re-categorize what is clearly a nut into a legume. This is much the way the President Trump renamed the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of Mara Lago or whatever it was. A little personal story about R&R: it was the case that when I moved away from the central coast I found myself trying to replicate these tastey legumes By cooking peanuts in the oven at my new home which is 6300 feet above sea level. Many calculations must be made to adjust For cooking at that altitude versus at sea I think I have come close To replicating them but still no dice. I cannot get quite the coverage of salty goodness to adhere to the Redskins the way they have. This is my main struggle in life right now I have been trying to replicate this spicy peanut extravaganza and not really getting very close. Still worth it to just buy it here.

Came for their fall farm field day, my friend is a member of their CSA box and invited me to attend…read morewith him. The field day was a way for members to check out the farm and enjoy a tour. Aside from the tour of the property they also had u-pick apples, a pumpkin patch, a small farm stand set up, and the option to buy lunch. We opted in for the lunch because everything (aside from chicken) was made with ingredients from the farm! It was cool to see exactly where all of the produce that we got to enjoy came from. It was all so fresh and flavorful. I'll definitely be keeping my eye out for them at local farmers markets!

I saw Lion's Mane and Shittake when I was there, unclear if they had any others. Definitely worth popping in and seeing if they have anything that catches your fancy!

Bread is medium soft on the inside but slightly crumbly / crackly on the outside. Not tough like sourdough but not mushy like wonder bread. The artichokes in the middle of the bread were just a tad bit soggy but tasted good The bread itself is not super flavorful but pairs really well and is great as sandwich material

Pescadero Local: "You have to go to Arcangeli Grocery." Me:…read more"Yes, that's the plan...I'm going to grab their Garlic Herb Artichoke Bread before heading home." Pescadero Local: "No, no no.... you have to get a sandwich! They toast their garlic herb bread and with the melty cheese...BEST sandwich ever!" Said Sandwich ($14.95): https://tinyurl.com/4zbnrr5k IDK whether to laugh or cry - the pic of the "hot pastrami" sandwich speaks for itself. After several bites, we tossed it. OK, their famous Garlic Herb Artichoke Bread ($9.99 x2) has to be bomb, right? A few on socials say it's the "Best Bread in the World". They even have a placard highlighting their feature on "The Best Road Trip Food Stops" (FoodNetwork.com). With all the mad hype, it was sorely disappointing...even tearing into it fresh out of the oven and still warm. Lightly crisp crust with a fluffy soft interior like French bread that was surprisingly flavorless. It was studded with a few pieces of artichoke...some tender, others stringy...but noticeably less than what I've seen in other pics/reels/TT. And if "garlic" is in the name, I want my breath humming into the next day! Other than the dusting of garlic powder on top, the garlic itself and garlic flavor was MIA. Some may say I should've bought one of their creamy dips to go with it...IMHO, good bread shouldn't need a supporting actress to steal the show. I know Arcangeli Grocery is a beloved Pescadero institution and I may get hate for giving it anything less than 4-5 star but based on this visit, I don't get the hype and felt like I wasted nearly $40. =T

No exceptions. I guess that explains why it's so small on an open lot across from Arcangeli Grocery where they sell those awesome artichoke bread loaves. The berries and green vegetables looked quite appetizing, but the flowers stole the show (photo: http://bit.ly/2LIFXmk). There was a table featuring grass-fed beef and even live music (photo: http://bit.ly/2uGmXyv). The overall challenge was economic as the prices were similar to what you find at the Ferry Building. The market appeared targeted to locals who aren't morning people since it's open only on Thursdays 3-7PM. Yeah, I'm serious.

I was looking for wreaths that I saw on their Instagram and found beautiful succulent filled pumpkins and other treats instead. I am looking forward to adding this stop to my Pescadero day trip itinerary which includes Fish tacos at the gas station, artichoke bread from the deli, and Harley Farms goat cheese.

Even her tattoos were a total match in this ensemble.
