Spanish town is one of our favorite restaurants in the old downtown. If you think the town is quirky, wait in till you see this little gem. It just feels comfortable being inside. The covered patio in the back is where our favorite table is. I always order the goat. It is spicy and slow simmered and fabulous. All of the other dishes are equally made authentically, and like your momma made it. The service is friendly, professional and fast. They have a off street parking in the back. The margaritas are the best in town.

Juno's is the sister store to Jupiter & Main in downtown Half Moon Bay. It has a charming, upscale…read moreboutique feel that would be at home in SF. It's a little surprising to see it in HMB but it's a nice surprise. They carry Evangeline's throws, table linens, and velvet pillows from Portland, Maine, Boissier candy from Paris (they've sold out of quite a few varieties) - e.g., mints, chocolate, marshmallows, hard candies, books, candles, lotions, perfume, trays, rugs, pillows, soaps, baskets, jewelry, bags, drinking glasses, etc. It has a definite feminine feel and also feels like a place to splurge on a little something special. A sumptuous velvet pillow is over $200. A small wood tray is $40. A box of Parisian hard candies is $16.50 but the box is very nice. Service was friendly. They even have free samples of the Parisian candy.

I am partial to their garden decor, especially the adorable animal sculptures. I'm a shopper who loves a deal, so I was pleasantly surprised to see some lavender plants on sale outside of the store! No, I didn't purchase any because I have at least 8 lavender plants of my own at home, but someone will surely take advantage of the deal! I will definitely return when I'm back in Half Moon Bay!

From the moment you step inside, you're greeted with the calming scent of fresh lavender. The shop is beautifully curated, with a rustic yet elegant aesthetic that perfectly complements the soothing nature of its signature herb. The selection is impressive--everything from lavender essential oils and bath products to hand-crafted sachets, teas, and even culinary items like lavender-infused honey. Each product feels thoughtfully made and locally inspired. I picked up a few gifts. You can tell that great care goes into every item on the shelves. What really made the experience special was the genuine hospitality. The staff took the time to explain the different uses and benefits of lavender and offered samples without any pressure to buy. Whether you're a local or just passing through, this shop is a must-visit for a peaceful moment and some truly wonderful finds. I'll absolutely be returning the next time I'm in town!
