Cranberry Scoop

I can’t wait to get off of work and run to the Cranberry Scoop for some fun Christmas gifts. All of the others stores just have junk. I can count on this fun place for anything for anyone. Thanks you so much for keeping your wonderful store open.

Stumbled upon this little shop after the fall festival today. It’s so cute! It has such an eclectic mix of funny/​fun/​festive things for your house, yourself, or a gift. I spent over 30 mins just walking around looking at everything they had. Such unique items & at affordable prices! I definitely recommend checking this place out whenever you’re strolling down Downtown Los Altos :)

I don’t know who has this store now but it can’t be the person
who had such a very cute Christmas boutique years ago. Please
get some customer service training. No greeting when entering
no questions and really really substandard merchandise. Too bad, came all the way from San Mateo to visit, twice. Will never be back.

Okay, the 5 stars is for the cuteness of this store. I’ve walked in here a few times just to look around. They have lots of unique gifts, and nice cards, and accessories. It’s a bit on the pricey side, but that’s because it’s a family owned store.

I remember the Cranberry Scoop gift shop from days gone by. It is still a cute little gift shop with all kinds of gift giving items. This time of the year the store is packed with Halloween themed items from table top status to gift bags to everything in between.

very cute store in downtown los altos! this store has everything from stationery to greeting cards to bath and body care (paraben and cruelty free products, no less). they also have small gifts for the special lady in your life (wife, sister, mom) and soft, plush toys for children. the ladies who work here are warm and friendly. i love the overall feel of this store, it’s like an oasis for the girl in me. great place to have your gal pals tag along!

A cute little gift shop in the middle of downtown Los Altos. The things they carry are things you’d admire but not buy for yourself, probably as a gift instead. I got a car freshener that smelled sooooo good as a display but not so much in my car. My mom got some cards and 4^th of July decorations. The lady working was really sweet. The prices were less than I expected.

I wandered into this store on a rainy day because it looked interesting from the street. They sell items that are very «gifty». The sort of things you don’t buy for yourself but have no problem giving as gifts. There’s nothing unique about the place or the items they sell. They do have a large selection of Vera Bradly items which are expensive and don’t really appeal to me. I had to return an item because it wasn’t large enough to hold all the things I wanted to put in it, and they only offered a store credit which really bummed me out. I had the receipt, and all the tags. It’s just a flat policy.
Finding something in that store that’s under $ 20 is difficult. And I don’t want t waste it on overpriced trinkets. Prices are not more than anywhere else, they’re just «full retail.» After the credit is used, I will not return to the store because of that policy.

Great place to pick up a seasonal gift, décor, and Vera Bradley products. So much fun!

On a recent trip, I saw a girl on the airplane with an adorable laptop bag. I asked her where she got it, and she said it was a Vera Bradley, but she got it at a boutique in LA. Deflated because I couldn’t get a cute laptop bag in my vicinity, I went back to work the next day in Los Altos.
Fortunately, by chance I saw a giant ~Vera Bradley~ sign in Cranberry Scoop while walking downtown! And to my delight, there was a whole wall of adorable handbags, purses, and travel bags!
Unfortunately, I felt like I was under surveillance the entire time I was in the store. I wasn’t greeted (other customers were) when I came in, any time I reached for an item I could feel hawk eyes on me, and the «Can I help you with that?» I finally received was more accusatory than courteous. It doesn’t quite make me want to patron the store.
So, we’ll see who wins this battle: my absolute hatred of being treated like a possible criminal or my absolute love for cute prints and fabrics on handbags.

This place has a great selection of cards and little knick-​knack gifts to give. I came in as part of the Los Altos Holiday Stroll. I was with my best friend who LOVES Christmas and we were wooed in with all the amazing Christmas decorations. For the season they have tons of everything for every holiday! They’re inclusive. I also got free cider.

Another place i stopped in while wandering around downtown Los Altos on Saturday afternoon.
They sell a variety of cute, somewhat kitschy, and unique items.
Lots of cards, stationary, seasonal decorations, plaques, magnets, small trinkets, etc.
This seems like the perfect place to find a great little gift when you’re unsure of what to buy, or just want to give someone a little something.
Prices are reasonable, and I don’t think they’re any higher because of the location.
I ended up buying some adorable magnets.
I could totally see myself coming back here to find a few small items during the holiday season.

Great little store we stumbled upon after breakfast. Found a cute little duck stake for my garden and it didn’t cost an arm and a leg.
Bonus — open on Sunday when so many of the other shops here are closed.

The Cranberry Scoop is a nice little gift shop in downtown Los Altos. The owner is a wonderful buyer and there are all kinds of fun items in the store. She has a good selection of Vera Bradley purses and bags. I purchase gifts here all the time!

I love this store! They have the cutest gifts and sell the Pandora bead line, which is hard to find in this area. The pricing is okay– not too expensive, but the sales are pretty fantastic. Go in a few days after any major holiday for some excellent savings. The staff is really friendly, too. They get bonus points for their wide range of panoramic sugar eggs this Easter! I still haven’t eaten mine and probably won’t– it’s way too pretty!

This store has cute little random gifts for your girlfriends and other female friends/​relatives in your life. Nothing really has a use, but they are just cute to look at and to give that will definitely bring a up a nice thought and laugh when received. =)

LA LA LOVE this store! I’ve been dropping in here on a monthly basis ever since I moved to Los Altos and it’s for good reason!
They have wonderful, thoughtful little gifts, trinkets, amazing cards (especially this new eco line that is awesome!), holiday themed things, etc.
I don’t think the prices here are out of the ordinary at all, especially being in Los Altos.
Staff is also really nice & helpful!

Unique seasonal trinkets that surprise and delight. Can find darling little gifties or make a much larger committment, either way a Cranberry gift is sure to please.

Are you looking for a fun gift for your best girlfriend? What about a knick knack that tells mom what she means to you? You’ll want to dip into the Cranberry Scoop then. From greeting cards and jewelry to plates and sweet statuettes depicting all stages of life you’re sure to find something wonderful.

Cute and lovely giftshop catering to women and girls located in downtown Los Altos on State Street. Features everything from ceramic plates with inspiring sayings to Vera Bradley bags, jewelry and great selection of Caspari greeting cards. I always find something that I like or could get for someone for their birthday.
