“What an awesome little surprise. A blast from the past,” one Yelper wrote, summing up the appeal of La Segunda Bartique & Gallery. This funky south-of-downtown emporium is your go-to for seeking out cool vintage finds while sipping a stiff beverage and making new friends. Be sure to carve out enough time to browse the vast array of offerings, which range from furniture and knick-knacks to clothing and vinyl albums. It’s the perfect destination for thrifters with an eye for the unusual and an affinity for a good deal. And being able to imbibe at the same time only sweetens the deal.

Nowhere Bookshop is part of a rare breed: an independent bookstore opened in a time when pundits are quick to complain that no one reads anymore. Mindful of the potential bookstores have to create a community of brainy misfits, Nowhere Bookshop stands out by offering genre-specific book clubs, and it regularly invites authors for readings and panel discussions, many of them free to the public. Add to that a coffee, wine and beer selection to enjoy while browsing, and you have a hit on your hands.
