We have pass experience in purchasing these items and they are top of the line. The Gragnano pasta is the best in Italy, so to find it here is special. The panetone is incredibly delicious as is the stollen German bread. I highly recommend shopping at Jones & Bones if you want special gourmet items for yourself or as a special gift for someone. Jennifer will help guide you and educate you on the descriptions of the items and how they are made.

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.

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.

I went recently with my mom and ordered the oat bread and two donuts. It was good, but the only…read moreproblem is the cleanliness of the staff. The woman at the front was mopping the floor and when I had told her my order, she began to pick up the bread without washing her hands! That's absolutely disgusting. When my mom pointed out her behavior, the woman said she would pick up another loaf of bread. Only then did she use a napkin to pick up my donuts and bread. Keep in mind, she still hadn't washed her hands!!!! It's incredibly gross and by doing this she could've gotten me, a celiac, or any other customer sick.

From the very beginning, the communication was thoughtful, organized, and tailored to our preferences and dietary needs. The evening itself was truly unforgettable.

There was a long line of happy people patiently waiting to order hot food at the counter. The butcher shop has a different line and register. The Brisket was insane, fatty, tender, perfect. The meaty ribs OMG so so tasty and tender. The hot link was hot and well cooked, but not really my thing. I didn't really care for the bbq sauce, but who cares bc the meat was flawless and needed nothing at all. The beans were a little hard, I've no doubt that is a one off, bc they were hustling so hard.

We got a turkey sandwich and a BBQ sandwich, both of which were delicious, with tons of ingredients in them. The staff were really friendly as well!

I would have loved a more simple sandwich that focused just on the high quality ingredients. But overall really enjoyed the experience!

Options:…read more- Gelato: Black cherry, French vanilla, regular vanilla, hazelnut, pistachio, coffee, coconut, chocolate, strawberry. - Sorbets: lemon sorbet, strawberry sorbet, mango sorbet. 2/5: The pistachio gelato is meh. It has a very mild flavor: Bindi is skimping on the expensive pistachio. It also contains chopped pistachios that are rubbery from being exposed to the gelato. 4/5: The regular vanilla gelato is good. Nice flavor, good sweetness level. It's heavily stabilized; it has an elastic/chewy texture. 2/5: The Fratema sandwich $12 has grilled eggplant, mozzarella, pesto, semi-dry tomato. The flavors are meh; didn't work for me. 2/5: I did not like the cannoli $7.50. The shell tastes very processed, like it's loaded with trans fat. The filling has great texture but is way too sweet. 5/5: The double espresso $4.75 is excellent; bold, rich, and dark, without being sour or citrusy. they use Vergnano coffee.
