I love this place so much. I've been there a couple times now. The owners of Crown and Crumpet used to own a store called la Place du Soleil, and I sold them some jewelry and collage art back in the day so I've known Amy for a long while it seems. Not only is she a really great business woman, she's really nice too.
Today my mom and I made a special trip into the city just to go there. We ordered tea for two which came with 2 pots of tea, tea sandwiches, scones, and dessert. It was all wonderful and you just can't beat this ambiance. All the Cath Kidston fabric makes me melt.
You can see there's been a lot of shopping on Etsy too. I see a lot I recognize here.
In the front of the store, there's a little boutique that is very much like what la Place du Soleil was like. And I recognized these from Lori Marie right away!
I also recognize these although I can't remember whose they are. I bet you do though and can tell me.
If you are ever in San Francisco, put Crown and Crumpet at the TOP of your must see list. It's in Ghiradelli Square which is also a must see.
You've stopped at the online journal of Bari Ackerman (the J. is for Jill, my middle name). I am a fabric, sewing pattern and surface designer. I love to create. And, I love to share ideas and dreams with other creative people. I hope you'll stay for a visit. And, feel free to chime in on the conversation. You know, so I don't think I'm talking to myself. Thanks for stopping by!
