    Best jam I have ever tasted. This company goes out of their way to work with the community and local farmers.

I got a Swiss cheese that I had not heard of but tasted good so got some. Inside is small, they have a fridge with smaller portions for charcuterie which is nice. I do feel like because this is such a specialized cheese shop with a lot of cheese people have never heard of, it might be good to have them organized by origin and then give a three word flavor profile or something since not everyone knows everything about cheese but definitely likes cheese. Also, there didn't seem to be a lot of common cheeses that would bring in a lot more traffic and let people discover the really good cheeses here. I would definitely come here for more than just the occasional pricey cheese board cheese if they consistently had high quality imported ricotta for baking, pecorino romano DOP, Parmesano Romano DOP, mozzarella, and other Italian cheeses that are difficult to find in the quality necessary to make the dishes authentically. Would help save trips to a place like Eataly for those items.

    Was visiting family and wanted to buy a little something as a gift…read more Called Gayle's the morning of and ordered 4 of their pastries. The process was quick and easy. The menu is available online and they take same day orders via phone. Pickup was a little hectic as there were a lot of people in the bakery. I waited in line for a ticket and then waited for my number to be called, but found out that I could have just walked to the end of the bakery to pickup at the counter in the corner. I would probably add a sign to make it a little more obvious for those new to the bakery, nonetheless the pastries were amazing and nothing else matters. Everything was sweet but balanced with acidity or nuttiness. Great mix of textures and the crust does not fall apart even after a whole day in the fridge and being manhandled into cut portions. I'd highly recommend this place for out-of-towners, as those that live there already know it's the best.

Hubs and I loved both our Mocha and chai- right topped with fresher whipped cream- lovely beverages. Cinnamon roll- one of the best I ever had, I think it's have a bit of cardamom. Brookie- soft and chewy with a nice flavor Marionberry turnover- filling was performed but that dough is flavorful and flakey Old fashioned chocolate cake- moist and milk chocolatey Egg and bacon croissant/ bagel smashed tot breakfast sandwiches- warm and rich Ham and cheese croissant- one of my favorite things it's so good and stuffed with lots of cheese. Key like pie parfait- STFU there is no way it could be better. I have a few more items in my back seat that we have not had and I can't wait to taste them.

It is an ideal location not only for native Santa Cruz residents but another option besides Safeway Trader Joe's etc. the prices here are fair. I noticed quite a few college aged customers likely due to its proximity to UCSC. Not only Mexican ethnic items but this place has everything you need. One stop shop. Very clean probably the most cleanliness grocery I've been to in a while . No smell in the meat carnecia area at all . All aisles fully stocked , very safe area ,close to downtown . No sketchy people asking for change or anything like that . Snacks Cereals , beverages , ice for your ice chest for the beach , grab it here on your way and close to the freeways.

They also have queso fresco. As the vegan there are snack and some beverage options in addition to veggies and fruits. Churro vendor is there on weekends for those who don't want to make it at home or go out of town for a sugar carb rush. Parking is small in their lot but there is plenty on side street surrounding the store.
