Seal Beach, CA This…read morebusiness on Main Street includes a lovely outdoor nursery with some unique plants and ground cover you won't easily find at your big box garden center. Even though the nursery section is not that big, just entering the gate from the sidewalk is a joyful, magical discovery for me...I love viewing all of the beautiful greenery. There are some new plants on each visit I've made, I usually see at least one plant I've either never seen before or don't know the name of until I look at the sticker on the container. They even sell some vegetable garden herbs and small potted plants, albeit a rather small selection. Towards the back left of the outdoor space, there is a section for garden signs and decorations, and just beyond is an indoor store with random items like clothing, kitchen towels, olive wood bowls and spoons, jams and jellies and jewelry. Within the past few months we have taken several strolls up and down the sidewalk to visit the shops on Main, but this one is a must every time I am in the area. I always try to hit this store up first if I am in the area close to sunset as they close at 5 pm. Street parking is Free for two hours, just enough time to walk through some shops and down a few blocks to the Seal Beach Pier which is well maintained with great views of Long Beach in the distance.

I went in a few weeks ago with my sisters and the 2 lady's at the register were super nice and…read morehelpful. I brought in a half eaten açaí bowl from earlier and there was a sign outside that said no food but when I was inside shopping the 2 workers saw it and didn't say anything and even were talking to me about an item I was interested in. A tall lady comes from the back and tells me I'm not aloud to have food and says in a rude tone she could hold on to it, and when she grabs it she says "is this trash"? And looked bothered. If it was trash I wouldn't still be eating it and holding on to it. Once we're gonna leave I ask for it back and she begins to ignore me until I ask again and then she gives it to me and I'm walking out the door about to step out and I take a bite of it and she yells no eating aloud in the store. As I'm already out the door. She was rude from the start so we're glad we didn't give her our business! We were gonna buy something until the rude tall blonde lady came out from the back.

Prices: B- For some of the more common Flag brands, they were slightly higher but they micro-manage the inventory so you may find what you're looking for easier than a box store. They also have a buyer point program.
