But I thought for 14.75 you should have gotten more then just 2 tacos. My husband got fish and chips 5 pieces and fries for 19.40. The fish pieces were very small. Although the food tasted ok I think it's way over priced for what you get. That's the price you pay for dining in Cambria.

They have a terrific display of crafts, art, and gift items, mostly from local creators and very supportive of women artists. Every time we have been in there, my wife and I find something we really like. They also host classes and workshops. For us, this is a perfect example of the kind of place we love to support... Small, locally owned, with great ties to the community. oh, and a big plus... The owner is super knowledgeable, kind, helpful. Can't go wrong with that either. As of this writing, November 2022, they are in the process of moving to a new location. So, I encourage you to follow along with the move. We definitely will be!

The New Times ran a feature showing some of the work on exhibit, so we drove out to the coast for the day and sauntered in. The gallery is refurbished since days of old, and features a nice exhibit space on the first floor, while a second large art gallery is somewhat hidden up a set of stairs. The bird drawings paintings, and prints were uniquely evocative of our central coast area and the works also drew upon the beautiful surrounding environment. Since January and February are primo "Birders" months, and Morro Bay now has an ongoing Birders Festival each year, this was a perfect match. We enjoyed the display and the ceramics and jewelry that the upstairs had. We will return to more shows in this gallery.

Surprisingly, there was just one cheerful woman behind the counter (Paula Radke) who greeted us and immediately shared that she was both the owner and the artist. Her passion and personality seemed to radiate in the pieces of jewelry. We got to make our pick out our own stones and glass and she put them together in earrings and necklaces. There were also picture frames with glass pieces and other small pieces that decorated her shop. What was most impressive was the way she so quickly shared her experience of moving from one location to another and how fortunate she was to have this new shop in Morrow Bay. The four of us enjoyed her stories as much as we enjoyed her art.

We were delighted to find her small new shop tucked away beside the new Nautical Bean Coffee shop in Morro Bay. We were drawn into the shop by some of the vegan leather purses that were displayed in the window. They were so cute that we had to get them for future Christmas presents. We visited with a very personable Paula and looked at her beautiful glass, including vase,s bowls, a mirror, and a wonderful hand blown lamp . It's exciting to see this kind of beautiful work on the Central Coast and inspirational for all the bead crafters out there. Her individual beads would make a stunning necklace, and the small beads would make beautiful bracelets. Her shop is definitely worth a visit if you're in Morro Bay!
