In one of the pictures you can see these little dog planters by the front door that are absolutely fabulous. Couldn't make up my mind so I bought 3 plus a glass turtle for good measure. Such a fun store filled with all sorts of stuff. Can't wait to go back. As for precautions, I found most people were masked and were careful to not crowd each other.

I also love their courtyard area, which has a lot of tables with umbrellas. It's a nice outdoor setting to have lunch with our dog. (It could get quite windy, though.) Our dog loves to go inside the Tractor Supply Co, right next to the Public Market, as well. Since most of the eateries close early, we usually come here for lunch or an early dinner while we charge, and have tried almost every restaurant. I love the slaw bowls at Todo Bueno, the lunch specials at Sushi Goshi, the pesto pasta at Humble Oven and the açai bowls at Neighborhood Açai.

We came upon this charming Artisan Art Studio on our way to the High Street Market and Deli…read more It's right next door, a perfect way to peruse local artwork while waiting for your sandos. Anita Marie Schwebel is one of the original artists who founded this shop during the pandemic, with 3 other artists, Jade Coast, Carol Manuputy, and John Robson. Anita Marie was minding the shop today. She was delightfully warm and charming. Anita says that many other local artisans have their jewelry, artwork, and beautiful hand made gift items here on display. The items are priced in line with their quality and value. There is quite an array of jewelry and gifts made of stones, and semi-precious stones, perfect thoughtful gifts for those with distinctive taste and appreciation for local artists. Check this place out, the next time you are in Los Osos, especially if you are waiting for your food at the High Street Market and Deli right next door.

First of all the ladies working never greeted me and my family who walked in. Then when I asked them to unlock two different cases (two different instances) neither of the ladies were personable at all. Literally just opened the case and walked away from me without saying a word to me. Weird. In another instance I was reading one of their novelty bookmarks and my sister caught the younger sales woman giving me a condescending look. Like, what is her problem and deal?! I'm literally just existing and reading one of the products in the store and that's a problem for her? Grow up. Gross behavior. Then when I when to check out neither of the women working bothered to say a word to me other than purely transactional. Then one of the women boxed up my necklace and was staring to put a ribbon on it, and I said "oh I don't need all that." She still proceeded to put on the ribbon. Then asked if I wanted a bag. I said yes please. And THE WOMAN HANDS ME THE BAG TO DO SO. So I had to unfold the bag and I had to put my item in my bag?!? Are you kidding me right now?! What a pathetic and atrocious level of customer service. Then I looked at them both waiting for a simple acknowledgement or "thank you for shopping with us," and nothing. Neither one of them said a damn word to me; even as I walked out. So incredibly rude! I would not recommend this store.
