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
Nature Gallery, featuring “nature as a work of art”, displays products made of minerals and fossils.
The items in the gallery all have a geologic story to tell and help us maintain perspective in the crazy, fast-paced world in which we live.
Specialty items include tiny magnetite crystals for kids, a wine bar made of 400 million year-old fossils, museum-quality meteorites, Native American Zuni carvings, and 220 million year-old petrified wood tables. Explore one of a kind jewelry designed by local and internationally known artists, including the 87Rocks Collection by Nature Gallery’s Carol Garsten. Nature Gallery was established in 1987 and moved to Los Altos eight years ago from Palo Alto.
