Funke’s

What a great clothing store. Bought a great shirt! I found the owner to be very friendly and sweet.

Sadly I’m downgrading this review already. First of all, I went on their website after I posted my review yesterday and tried to order something because I can’t normally get there before they close at 6pm*, but of course that particular product wasn’t on the site even though the site says «If you can’t get to Calistoga, order from our web store!» Ummm OK. Would have loved to but no such luck…
So the site also says they are open from 10 – 6 every day. I left work early and I show up at 5:15. Imagine my surprise when it was black in there and there was a chalkboard next to the door that says they are only open 10 – 5 Sunday through Thursday.
Needless to say I was not happy at all when, like I said, I left work early and arrived to find the store closed because of bad information on their OWN website. It’s not like I found their store hours on Unilocal or some random internet search with hours posted. Very, very disappointing and frustrating to say the least.
Moral of the story here is that they do have great stuff in the store if you can get there before it closes (tourists only I guess since I would think many other locals in the area work normal 9 – 5:30ish hours like myself). And also know that they have many more great products than what’s just listed on their site, but if you want to buy them, you will actually have to make it to Calistoga despite the claims on the website. Lastly, call in advance to be sure they are actually open.
