I've traveled a lot and always seem to be looking for some little gift to give someone when I'm away but then I remember Linda's gift store and think why bother I can find anything I need there in fact when I was out of town, a Friend's birthday was coming up and I had to get it by the time I got home. I knew the store would be closed so I called Linda and asked her to please get this particular item and please wrap it and I will pick it up when she opens. I gave her my credit card. She wrapped it, and the problem was solved immediately. I am so grateful the store is literally in our backyard. I could see her very easily opening another store in one of the Hawaiian islands. She would be a tremendous success, but then I would miss her. Thank you for your careful choosing of the items you carry in your store. As a former owner, I know the hard work pays It takes to have a store like hers . Again , thank you for your service to our community.

This shop had so many fun gift items that my eyes were salivating, if that is even possible - haha. I loved the ceramic dishware, tile coasters, and flavored gourmet tea drop-ins. I will be returning to get my housewarming and thank you gifts here. I did have some confusion in the early months of what this store was. Based on the name, I genuinely thought it was a burger place at first (I probably just read too fast), so I hope it is obvious to others so that Another Banger gets the foot traffic it deserves because it is an adorable local store!

It's a gift shop, with all kinds of things, including food, ceramics, jewelry. The theme alludes to the pungent, savory, salty, flavors of the sunny Mediterranean region of Nice and Liguria, which I happen to love. It feels like a thematic complement to nearby Mentone, highlighting the European feel of our sunny California coast. I ventured in one day and then I couldn't stop thinking about how cool this new shop is. So many stores are all alike. This one is different and unique. Check it out!

The woman at the counter was bland and unwelcoming from the start. It honestly felt like we were bothering her just by being there. Customer service makes a big difference, and this was definitely lacking. When my food came out, the sandwich was literally falling apart because they loaded it with an excessive amount of mayo. It made it messy and unpleasant to eat. Overall, between the high prices, limited menu, poor service, and sloppy food, I won't be coming back.

I did not experience the level of horrible customer service that Yelpers complained about at this location. I bought a fun scarf - kind of like a cheap knock off of the striped Missoni-style scarves.

There is a surface lot a block (off of Monterey) away that has all the same problems as the street parking. Generally speaking I like the odds that the lot behind the police station offers, but in peak tourist season you'd best plan ahead for parking. This is a medium ish sized store very typical in layout for the shops that line this block close to the beach. The entrance faces the street, and the stock is laid out through the store with the cashier at the back. It will seem narrow but isn't really. The stock falls into mid range giftables. It's not a super expensive spot where you can blow 500 dollars on a purse but is the kind of spot where you can pick up a decent clutch for 40 bucks or so. Most of the items fall into the home décor category with a mild beach theme. There are inspirational books, wine accessories, all sorts of beach gear, light clothing, candles, leather craft goods, cups, and yes magnets because of course there are. Overall it's a reliable source of better quality gifts then you'll find elsewhere on the esplanade, the kind of things that won't embarrass you when you get home.
