I visited the women's apparel, but I realized there is another Mermaids boutique for children and gift shop. Unfortunately, it was closed by the time I stopped by. The boutique has a nice selection of chic and fashion clothes as well as casual style for the beach. They also have beautiful accessories. The price was reasonable. The staff were very nice. Definitely, I will come back to Mermaids

Municipal Coffee has officially become our go-to spot! It's tucked just inside of Marky Mark's…read moreMunicipal Athletic-wear store just off Coast Highway in O-side. It's truly the kind of place you find once and then keep coming back to. The vanilla lattes are beautifully crafted; smooth, rich, and perfectly balanced without being overly sweet. And then there's Camden... he completely elevates the experience. You can tell he genuinely cares about the craft. From serving espresso in a ceramic cup to walking you through the tradition of pairing it with sparkling water (very European, very cool), it turns a simple coffee run into something memorable. And the brownie... the brownie... wow. Warmed to perfection with thick walnuts and enjoyed out on the patio, it's dangerously good. Like, "we came for coffee and accidentally had a whole moment" kind of good. If you're anywhere near Coast Highway, don't miss this spot, especially if you're here for the café experience.

Absolutely LOVE this place!…read more I first discovered Municipal last year after realizing one of the owners is Mark Wahlberg and as a longtime fan, I had to check it out. First off, having Urth Caffé inside the store is such a game changer. The coffee is incredible, and the whole setup is just next level. It's not your typical cramped coffee shop. There's actually space to sit, work, and enjoy your time without feeling rushed or squeezed in. The vibe here is unmatched. It's become one of those spots where you can get work done, meet up with people, or just hang out. I've even found myself regularly connecting with others who now use this as their go-to morning coffee spot. And the people? Top tier. Kamden, the GM of the coffee shop, is one of the most welcoming and positive people you'll meet. He genuinely makes your experience fun and memorable every single time. On top of that, the apparel is seriously impressive. Municipal is putting out gear that absolutely rivals anything else on the market. The quality is outstanding, and their shoes? Unreal. I wear them daily! They're that comfortable and versatile. If you're anywhere near South Oceanside off PCH, you HAVE to check this place out. Coffee, workspace, community, and top-tier apparel all in one spot. It doesn't get much better than this!

I have passed this place a million times on the corner of Grand and State Sts. Today I wanted a…read moresummer something-or-other for my niece so I bopped in to take a look. They have lots of summer clothing, dresses, skirts, shirts, some men's stuff. Didn't even know they had a back patio until I saw the photos on this site. Will have to try it. The shop is really small and if there are more than 5 people inside it's hard to move around., But I found a great pastel, tie-dyed maxi skirt for $28 and grabbed it. Lots of tshirts here too. If you forgot all your vacation clothes at home, you could re-do your wardrobe in this store.

I just had a wonderfullll shopping experience here, walking back to our car from brunch on Sunday…read morearound 2pm, my 2.5 year old wandered into the store and right away the wonderful woman at the front desk greeted her and offered her some toys to play with so I could LOOK around the store! I tried on a few things and I was really impressed with the quality, come to find out the suits in store are made from one role of fabric so if there is something I like I can ask about a different size or cut. I think the prices are actually really fair for the quality of the pieces and will def stop in here again- customer service is 100000000000+++++.

I wanted to contact the owner about this, but I was unable to get their information--so here I am…read more On Friday, my 20-year-old and I walked into this store after grabbing a sweatshirt off the rack outside. When we walked in, a manager--large in stature--was leaning over a much smaller young lady working the register, screaming in her face. From what little we heard, we easily figured out he was angry that she went to someone else (possibly the owner) with an issue. "I AM THE MANAGER OF THIS STORE... YOU SPEAK TO ME...!!!!!" The young lady could only mutter, "Yes, sir," as she buried her head in her chest and stared at the floor. We were so mortified and shocked that all I could do was look at and address the girl, ignoring the man as he quickly changed his tone and tried to address me. I've been kicking myself ever since for not saying something to him right then and there. When we were done at the beach, we stopped back in the store to check on her. We caught up with her just as she was leaving through the back door. I asked if she was okay and told her that he cannot speak to her like that--that it's workplace harassment, an abuse of power, etc.--and encouraged her to tell the owner. She immediately said no, clearly fearful of that suggestion. Why wouldn't she be, after the manager was basically threatening her? I asked if I could contact the owner, and she declined that as well. Again, understandable. Meanwhile, the manager was standing at the back door watching us. Once I saw him, I told her not to worry about giving me the name. I said if her manager asked what I wanted, she could just say I was thanking her for selling me the sweatshirt. Later that day, still really uncomfortable with the idea that this could be ongoing, I spoke to Carlsbad PD, mostly to see if there was a way to get the owner's information. There wasn't. But at least now there is a report of all of this, so if they do fire her for anything related, or if things get worse for her, there's documentation of it.
