Be aware for broken gifts! This is a place where you can buy a little drinks and foods but more like gift shop. Gifts are displayed in narrow space in small tables so you can unexpectedly fall and break them and you must pay for them. My wife and I went there and walked around. I accidentally hit a small table that made a gift fall from the table because the space is very small and narrow. The store clerk came immediately and said«It is broken!!». I felt like they were waiting for somebody to do that. The broken gift is a long wooden status from Africa as they said, and it costs $ 70. WHATTHEHELL!!! They pretended to be kind and offered 50% discount and started to wrap it up even I didn’t say to buy! We finally had no choice to buy it. After I paid for it, I looked into the status from the wrap and it looks it was already broken! GOD! I suspect that they just put the broken status(it still can stand!) and waiting someone to touch it! It is fine to buy a drink and small snack there(they are pricy but it is mountain) but don’t be attracted by gifts there perhaps you have to do unexpected costly purchase!

Got there at 5:01 and the lady just abruptly shut the door and said they were closed without a further word. This isn’t the city so why the strict adherence to time? Paying customers and needed supplies

I encountered this cute little shop on the side of the road on the way to Palomar Observatory. They have basic supplies and snacks, stuff you might need if you find yourself spending a day out on the mountain. They also have a delightful assortment of knickknacks and gift items. I especially enjoyed looking at all the miniature carnival rides and the miniature circus they had on display.

Find necessity and unnecessaries at this convenient general store on Palomar Mountain. I bought ice but no souvenirs.

this place is sooo random and awesome! there were rocks and stones, costume masks, books about prostitutes in the old west, yogurt, beer and cheese among way too many other things. i would actually need about an hour or more to observe every little thing about that store. this store was just what we needed to enjoy our palomar mtn. experience!

THANKGOD for the Palomar Mountain General Store. I rode up the mountain on my bike and reached the summit dehydrated and famished. This place saved my life. 2 Snickers, an Ice Cream Sandwich, a bag of Chips, a bag of Pretzels, 2 Gatorades and 2 Waters later I was ready to hit the road again, but I could not have done it without them. They are also very friendly, and the setting is beautiful.
