Beautiful products as gifts, such as necklaces, books, hats, cultural crafts, handmade gifts, unique jewelry, locks, bags, pouches, art, souvenirs, etc. Great value. Good service next door. Views are spectacular inside and outside. Small narrow space, but perfect for a unique gift shop. Decent value. Shop ends at the stairwell in back. Highly decorated at every shelf and angle. I really liked all the colorful items and designs I see. There's definitely variety here, especially if you want to buy a specific gift for someone. Next door is also an art gallery boutique. Beautiful place with beautiful vibes. Must love. I like browsing around the store whenever I'm waiting for my coffee and pastries or breakfast sandwich next door. Friendly and welcoming environment with lots of great things to see. I will definitely revisit in future.

Just like the rest of the reviews here with 1 star, I couldn't agree more that she is EXTREMELY rude and unprofessional.

Find someone new to manage/own this shop.

They made me pay 27 cents for it which was annoying to me but I did it. I put the bandaid on and then asked if I could get another one because my knee was bleeding a lot and the guy started yelling at me. He said he was waiting on me and that they were closed and to walk to Walgreens or something. I said "You want me to walk to Walgreens with a bloody leg?" and he said fine give her another one and I took it outside to put it on. I really wasn't being rude, I said thank you, it was me and one other young girl. It was pretty cruel.

If you want a keepsake of your visit to the Wharf & Monterey, come on in.

It's fairly organized, & when I was there, an employee was tidying up & dusting (though he didn't acknowledge any customers). The aisles are narrow & it can easily get cramped with all the customers browsing. The store extends far to the back. Note: Apparel & toys for kids is towards the back on the left side. The customer service at checkout is a typical, straightforward transaction.

The owner is genuinely kind -- she even guided me through some tarot when I opened a set I probably…read moreshouldn't have, which I really appreciated. And showed me how she shuffles decks, had me use her cards to try myself - very informative. If she offered some classes of some kind or just events at the shop- I feel like that would be beneficial and of interest. That said, I can't personally shop somewhere that doesn't allow returns once something's opened. The policy makes sense, it's just not a good fit for me. There are quite a lot of items as far as selection for what from the outside looks like a very small shop. Most items are available for much less online, and in my opinion, the value here simply doesn't match the prices. This is really only a place to shop if supporting a local business matters more to you than what you're getting for the money.
