Cambria's premiere nursery, florist and gift shop. Find everything from garden basics, indoor and outdoor plants, professional florist services and charming home decor and gifts here!
This is a great place to visit. The plants and flowers always look healthy and vibrant. There are little areas to explore, including a lovely gift shop. Their location is divided nicely into various areas...succulents, blooming plants, garden accessories. It is a fantastic place to visit in December when Cambria is having their annual Christmas Market. The employees are very helpful.

We stopped in to just look around, but then noticed the jewelry and stayed much longer than anticipated. The silver chains is what really interested us and the owner was super accommodating. We ended up going back the next day to buy more. There is much more than jewelry to this gallery; I recommend stopping in.

Established in 2014, owner Lorraine Montello has always believed that fresh California olive oil and aged Italian balsamic vinegar should be accessible, fun to learn about, and easy to enjoy. So she designed a better oil and vinegar tasting room experience that's all about you. With free daily offerings that includes complimentary bread, guests are encouraged to ask questions and experiment with the provided pairing suggestions.
Montello is a unique experience in Cambria. They import a tremendous variety of balsamics from Italy and have many of their imported olive oils infused with flavors from local farms. You can taste every variety they carry, a treat in itself. We thought about buying one or two bottles but ended up with 8 because they were all so wonderful. The white balsamic is very special and especially good for baking fish. And the prices, for this quality vinegars and oils, are reasonable. If you love to cook don't miss this little shop of flavors.

Absolutely wonderful!!! I walked into this beautiful sanctuary today and it was just fabulous. Oz and Kris are welcoming and so so so knowledgeable about every yarn in the shop. There are yarns from all over the world at all price points. You are encouraged to snoop, browse and dream. I'm a beginning weaver, so Oz was able to point me to things that would work for my loom (and experience level). I bought just a few things and can't wait to see what my yarn will become. You can also shop on line so you are not limited by geography. Ball and Skein was the absolute best part of my day in Cambria.

Decided to stop by before dinner for a wine tasting of local wines. The shop is really cute with lots of fun accessories. The tasting itself was very reasonable (1$ per tasting), with lots of great local wines to try. The woman serving us (Sherry) was super friendly and very informative, and while we hadn’t intended to buy more than a bottle, thanks to her great information and company we left with 6 bottles! Looking forward to drinking them with friends over the next few days.
