Shopping in Laguna
Cute, smaller shops in Laguna you have to check out when you're in town.
Go shopping and create CUSTOM trucker hats at Cactus Jane Emporium. This store has women's and children's clothing and lots of gifts and fun home items. Lovely owner, too.
Cactus Jane Emporium
Bluebird Mercantile has literally everything: cool housewares, women's clothing, men's clothing, coffee, candles, decor, jewelry, vintage items, etc. There's also art and books.
Bluebird Mercantile
One of my all-time favorite independent bookstores. Cannot recommend it enough. Great kids section, too!
Laguna Beach Books
One of the cutest children's clothing stores I've ever been in. It's not inexpensive, but everything is high-quality and adorable. They have great toys as well. Great stop for a baby shower gift.

Stop at the store “clubhouse” and get a famous W hat. Willbo was started by some Laguna locals and sells quality men's and women's clothing. It's very beachy and truly “Laguna.”
WILLBO
If you love spirituality, crystals, oracle decks, or beautiful jewelry, you have to stop into this gorgeous store. It's breathtaking. You can also get intuitive reading and energy healing sessions on-site.
Merkababe Designs
Women's and children's clothing that is beachy and on-brand for Laguna Beach. You can buy beautiful swimwear year-round. Love their branded hats and sweatshirts. Clothing at various price points.
The Shop. laguna beach
One of the coolest stores in Laguna with men's and women's clothing. Lots of vintage denim and great gift items. Gift cards, too.

Restaurants in Laguna
Incredible food and drinks with an even better view, right on the beach. Most seating is outside. Brunch, too!
LARSEN at Hotel Laguna
Amazing pastry, food, and coffee. Casual and relatively quick (lines can be long on weekends).
Rye Goods
Some of my favorite sushi in Laguna. Get the Sunset Roll!
Seabutter - Laguna Beach
OBSESSED with the pastries here and love the coffee. Get the Crookie (croissant and chocolate chip cookie).
the b8kery by Selanne's
This is my favorite brunch in Laguna Beach, located The Ranch hotel. It's hidden away and feels like you're in an entirely different city. The food is incredible. Do not skip the cinnamon roll.
Harvest
Favorite coffee in Laguna Beach. I love the cappuccino, but their matcha is also a hit. Grab a drink and walk Heisler Park.
Jedidiah Coffee
The line is usually long for a (good) reason. Great local spot for good coffee, great outdoor seating (inside seating is limited). Coffee is awesome and the food is very good. Grant additional time in the Summer months due to crowds. Worth the wait.
Laguna Coffee Company
Casual dinner vibes with incredible food. Very hip and can get really crowded. Brunch, lunch, and dinner. Attached to a speak easy with a funky vibe. Parking can be a challenge. Get the burger!
