Local boutique shops and restaurants line this stretch of Historic Route 66, east of downtown. Fun and hip clothing stores, jewelry and art galleries, retro toy stores, vintage clothing, upscale specialty stores and edgier shops (tattoo, body piercing) make Nob Hill a favorite shopping area and meeting place for locals. There's also a variety of restaurants, many with sidewalk patios, so you can spend a full day shopping in this unique and historic area. The original Nob Hill Business Center from the 1940's contains the popular Scalo restaurant, the natural food Co-op and other great stores and salons at the intersection of Carlisle and Central.
