I popped in only 15 minutes before closing, so there wasn't enough time to truly take my time to browse. The prices were reasonable for the unique items from what I saw.

The bookstore/Coffee shop is in one of the former buildings. The food is prepared elsewhere, so some items on the menu may be gone by the time you get there after 12, as I did. Wanting a light lunch, I chose the chicken salad with sesame crackers and an Americano with milk. Both were good; the salad mostly pieces of chicken with a good dressing and the coffee not too strong. There are two tables out side and a few more inside surrounded by used books and some board games.

They also have a good selection of used books, as well as brand new books that are region specific. Barista Zach was very friendly and helpful. He made me an excellent Mocha. If I lived in or near Yreka, Zephyr is the kind of place I would become a regular at. Highly Recommended!!!

Despite the 1 bad review, Bill has been in the crystal business going right to the source--not the…read moreshows as everyone else-- for longer than most of these people had even thought about selling crystals. He is extremely knowledgeable and honest. He knew Marcel Vogal and most dealers are either lying or being fooled, as very few should be allowed to be called Vogal because there are only 1 or 2 of his original students on the planet. They weren't the 'IBM' guy that copies, Marcel understood energy and it's importance to healing the human, and that was a part of his training. I have bought many unusual pieces from Bill's shop for over a dozen years and each one is special. People try to buy them from me. Bill is definitely a no-nonsense guy, and if he feels like he is being 'used' will be curt. As one guy with a big website selling fake Vogels, he picked his brain and then took his info, some right off his website and used it on his. I don't have a problem if someone says, 'Vogal like', as one honest dealer said, but again last week I went into a crystal shop in Bend, Oregon and the guy was lying to the woman about a Vogal crystal. He was charging a big price. Hopefull the woman that owns the store was just ignorant and not training her people to lie. Bill only knows me by sight, so no, he knows not that I am writing this. If he was better at merchandising, his shop would be the best.

When I asked if they were hand carved by one of a couple original carvers he just said they were the real deal as he had worked with Marcel in the past, which I accepted and proceded to ask if the larger crystals were rare and if they only had a few coming in a year or if they were more common now. I wanted to know because in a previous conversation several months back I was told they were all out of the large vogels and to check back in the spring. Well being summer now I thought I'd find out. Apparently three or four important questions about a crystal costing upwards of $10,000 were to many as I was told that he wouldn't talk with me anymore because I was clearly some sort of shady dealer and not looking for a crystal for myself, despite the fact that I straight up told him that I wasn't a dealer and the purpose of just getting some info for myself prior in the conversation. You know, something a normal person would do before dropping 10 grand. Not only are these guys extremely rude, but accused me of flat out lieing. Impressively negative for a crystal store. Will NEVER shop here, and anyone sensitive to energy especially in crystals I would advise the same.

They have…read morethe tendency to place decorative items inside of baskets , giving the impression that the price s inclusive of all items in the basket. No signs saying that the price is for the basket only. When you get to the register, the staff acts weird as if a major problem has occurred. Then the manager comes to the front to inform that the price is for the basket ?!? Really, then why don't you identify the decorative items as such?!? Very annoying! Yesterday, I returned I noticed that the prices very unusual higher than previous days. I was interested in purchasing an item and was taking a final walk around before purchasing the item. All of a sudden, this guy comes up to me and hand signals that they are closing in 3 minutes. Waving three fingers in the air as if I was deaf? Really, it felt awkward and weird . Who does that?!? I left without buying anything. Customer service, regardless if it's a high end store or a local thrift shop is vital. Customers need to feel welcomed and comfortable while shopping! Otherwise, they will not patronize the store. Not sure if I'll will return.

Even more refreshing, Cal's has a progressive, queer-friendly vibe--something of a rarity in Redding these days. Some used bookstores really blow your mind. Cal's is one of them. The shop has served the Redding area since 1974! The power of the used bookstore, my friends. Incredible. There need to be more spaces like this--open, welcoming, somewhere to expand your mind. It's especially important these days. And most especially in places like Redding. Give Cal's all your money!!

Well, she's only friendly if you're the "right" kind of customer. As soon as I walked in the door, I felt intense, frosty "I don't like you" vibes.

"Kay" seems to have a very high opinion of herself, and if you don't meet her standards of appearance, well, be prepared to be publicly humiliated in front of other customers. Hope she goes out of business.
