We've been coming in for years, and the owner is consistently so welcoming and kind. My son, Nicholas, is stoked and lights up every time we stop by so he can talk skateboarding with him. He really takes the time to connect which is so cool. Even outside the shop spotting the owner out and about, he always makes a point to say hello. Anyways, Lost Surf Shack is such a "shop local" gem in Fort Bragg. We just walked out of there this afternoon with a set of knee pads and a happy kiddo, and I realized this review is long overdue!

In all my trips to Mendocino, how had I missed Mary Ricard's shop Circa? When a friend recommended…read moreit to me, I was there at the door bright and early. Well, I won't be overlooking this shop again!

I'd told the owner Mary Ricard (apparently, according to another reviewer), that I'd been to her…read morestore last year and that she'd let me see the two units she had for rent. And, that I'd purchased a jacket that I LOVED and that I'd left it somewhere. I saw a jacket I loved and I needed a larger size than she had in the shop and I asked if perhaps "they" (meaning where ever she purchased it) might carry a larger size. She said it was the last of the inventory (which I assumed she meant her inventory). She walked off and didn't help to see if I could order a larger size. AND, prior to that, I'd wanted to ask a question and the two store keepers were chatting as I stood there in front of them waiting. The store keeps were in their 60's (I'd guess), so not, inexperienced. I worked in prestigious law firms in the San Francisco Financial District in my working days and realize practically every day that I was so fortunate to learn the professionalism required for working with high-end clients. You don't keep customers waiting while you finish your conversation because the whole point of you being in the store at that moment is to sell. So, while I'd had a very nice perception of Circa's owner last year, I didn't this time around and that's her loss. I told other potential customers and other store employees/owners when I walked out. Word of mouth is powerful for stores like this. I may not have purchased anything, and I won't rush to her store the next time I'm in Mendocino, a small loss for her, but, she doesn't know who I know, who I speak to. And, now I'm telling a larger audience. I noticed a couple of people working in town who left me feeling less positive about Mendocino, a placed I've always LOVED. Your customers are often there to have fun and if you are sour, it sours their experience. AND, you most often ALWAYS remember the nice people and their businesses.

Many thanks to her for being such an excellent ambassador. Also, thanks to her I was able to purchase $577 worth of items due to her patience and advice on everything. She was equally as sweet to everyone who walked in whilst helping me with sizes and suggestions! This store has the most incredible selection of items from clothing to home decor. But best of all, the prices are downright reasonable. Not at all what I expected in a Bay Area boutique with EXQUISITE merchandise. I got two sweaters, a dress, a brooch and two necklaces! Wowwweeeee! Even if it takes two hours to get to Erin Keller and a massive bout of car sickness I will be back. Its so worth it

It isn't thin or the cheap stuff that will get ruined in a matter of time. It's soft and really comfortable to the touch. So many choices of hooded sweaters, T-shirts, cool socks, scarves, wrist warmers, beanies and other Knick knacks. You name it they got it in here and at decent prices. New stock apparently comes in on the frequent and when that happens you'll find the old going on sale and that's asking for my pocketbook to go empty. I definitely had to hold myself back. Friendly staff nearby ready to help if there was any to be had and simply just to hold some conversation. Definitely recommend to stop by and pick something up in case you forget a warm covering along with a souvenir.

They come in a wide variety of colors like peach, soft light blue. A large selection of tee shirts prices above $10.

They have a huge selection of finger puppets, small to large stuffed animals. They have puppets with those clingy arms. The awwwwww factor is high. A nice selection of clothes that I like--cotton drawstring pants, SOCKS, hand knit hats (my head is too big :{ sadly) Life is Good tee-shirts and other girly/shabby stuff. There is a limited selection of stuff for men. Cool pirate maps, small bottle of pirate "gold" too. EARRINGS--nice selection--I can't believe I actually didn't buy a pair. They also have decorative stuff that I liked but I would never buy since they are so fragile---"Stained" glass pictures on stands--I loved the one with the b/w cat. They also have soaps and lotions, jams, etc. They have a lot of stuff in a small space. It is neat and tidy. A must-see for shopaholics, Husbands and sons will not appreciate it!
