Welcome to Downtown Los Altos
The tree lined streets of Downtown Los Altos, lush with green in summer and verdant colors in fall, evoke the quaint, village atmosphere of small-town America. Nowhere else can you find a hardware store, a gem & mineral shop, and two grocery stores just a short stroll from unique cafes, boutiques and salons.
Within the six-block downtown triangle you will discover more than 150 shops offering just about everything from A to Z. Grab a quick bite or enjoy fine dining, make a deposit, grab a special gift, get your eyes or teeth checked, or have your clothes cleaned and tailored. All this and more with free, convenient parking on street and in the plazas.
Shop. Dine. Explore. Discover. Downtown Los Altos.

LAVA MEMBER OF THE MONTH
Nestled on a tree-lined street in downtown Los Altos, Linden Tree Books is dedicated to providing unique books and gifts for all age groups. Our extremely broad book inventory is complemented by an innovative selection of timely yet timeless treasures: puppets and book-related dolls, science and math games, art materials, puzzles and more.*
Linden Tree was formed in 1981 by Dennis and Linda Ronberg. Combining the “Lin” and “Den” of their first names, Linden Tree originally specialized in children’s recordings. Since then, Linden Tree Books has branched out to provide a remarkably diverse product line – not to mention a physical and online store, social media presence and innovation in bookselling – all rooted in a single and simple goal: helping imaginations grow, from newborns to nonagenarians. Whether online or in the store, Linden Tree is a destination for both head and heart. Experience our friendly atmosphere and knowledgeable staff, whose “life branches” are as far-reaching as our inventory.
