    I've come into contact with some really rude people that have shopped here and it's no wonder the…read morepeople that work here are considered rude by customers, they have to deal with the rudeness all day long. Today there was a guy who's card was declined and he was giving the lady at the register a hard time about it. Turns out they found another form of payment and thought it was okay to cut in line in front of us. In any case, we don't know what the owners have been through that day or what stupid people have been in there before us that may have caused a scene. We were in search of some souvenirs since we were vacationing in Monterey for the week. I had been in search for a backpack for some time that wasn't a cheap looking drawstring backpack. This place had exactly what I was looking for. I just love my back pack! This place also has your typical Monterey sweatshirts and teeshirts and other little Knick knacks. Also walking distance to hotels on Cannery Row. They have the best prices in cannery row by far in my opinion. I also thought the lady at the cash register was very pleasant and we chatted for a bit. She was very pleasant.

    The lady working here is extremely rude, she will speak rudely to you - whisper under her breath,…read moreand ignore what you are saying to her about prices. Just like the rest of the reviews here with 1 star, I couldn't agree more that she is EXTREMELY rude and unprofessional. The prices are good but it's not even worth it to give business here when my family and I come here and are treated with such disrespect. I will never give money to this business again. Find someone new to manage/own this shop.

    I always have so much fun walking around Cannery Row. There are so many unique little shops to…read moreexplore, and I can never leave without picking up a few treats or souvenirs. The candy stores are always a favorite, and I love how every shop has something different to offer. The views of the ocean are absolutely gorgeous, making it easy to spend a few hours just strolling around and taking everything in. Whether you're visiting Monterey for the first time or you've been here before, it's a great place to shop, snack, and enjoy the coastal atmosphere. It's definitely one of my favorite places to stop whenever I'm in the area.

    It's pretty much a must when visiting Monterey…read more Yes, it's geared mainly for visitors not locals but, with the greatest aquarium in the world and the history of this part of California, there is something for everyone here. Besides the numerous gifts shops, hotels, restaurants, and bakeries, I enjoyed walking the street and reading the signs (https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=saJuyv784apZzH--psHZ3Q&start=264&select=_GeO7eI7DvfdHmFW4m0_fw), (https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=saJuyv784apZzH--psHZ3Q&start=264&select=2_is_N1U14FAI_e3OvKzRQ), (https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=saJuyv784apZzH--psHZ3Q&start=264&select=EZRWT_hc1f8giWPM7Aajdg), and admiring the statues along the walkway. There are iconic people (https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=saJuyv784apZzH--psHZ3Q&start=264&select=-5PpBw_v1zzCEwAyUUxgVA) as well as historical memorials (https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=saJuyv784apZzH--psHZ3Q&start=264&select=eSUIHGmndBCAg82Ch67zTQ) to the people who built this community. A mix of various shops, tourist gift sellers, restaurants, hotels, and eateries (ice cream shops, delis, and bakeries). On one end, you'll find the aquarium. The other way, you'll reach the Monterey Plaza Hotel and San Carlos Beach. I mainly walked this my 1st evening here on a Thursday and it was on the quiet side (https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=saJuyv784apZzH--psHZ3Q&start=264&select=zeTCcVncpby2ciMVUrkz6Q). When I returned Saturday afternoon, the streets were filled but not overwhelming so since there were no major events on this weekend (auto show previous weekend and the Monterey Jazz Festival two weekends later). The weather was comfortable with a cool ocean breeze. It's probably best to prepare your activities somewhere along here after you visit the aquarium if that's on your schedule. Enjoy this part of Monterey and learn more about the history here.
