Occasional Digest - a story for you

Tucked off a quiet street just a couple blocks from the dramatic cliff sides of San Pedro, the Corner Store is so much more than its name. Yes, you can stop by for a coffee or to stock up on bottles of wine or snacks, but you’ll also find hundreds of specialty sodas on display and in the freezers, with fun, hard-to-find flavors like prickly pear, guarana and fire-brewed grape. The food menu is just as robust with pastries, a breakfast burrito, bagels, burgers on fresh-baked ciabatta bread, subs, soups, salads and a few vegan options.You’re free to enjoy your selections in the cozy interior with worn-in couches or on the covered patio, but the pro move is to take a small picnic to Point Fermin Park for a spectacular view of the seaside, with nearby landmarks such as the Korean Bell of Friendship and the Victorian-style Point Fermin lighthouse. There’s also a path that takes you directly to the shore, but be mindful that this part of the coast is pretty rocky with a high tide.
