"I want to say what a great experience my boyfriend and I had when we visited and shopped at Mendocino Jams & Preserves. Our experience was totally positive, in every way. We stopped in just as they were nearing closing time, on March 31, 2015. The owner was as friendly as could be, and told us to take our time looking around. She offered us numerous tastes...."

"Even though the store is in an old, old building and not wheelchair accessible, I was able to taste the jams and purchase some of the ones I like [I'd like to try all of them, so, I'm sure I'll be going to mendojams dot com, their website]!"

"Drove by this place and since I am such a jam lover I had to stop. The lady greeted us super friendly. We told her we weren't locals so she told all the best places to eat in town. She was so helpful and friendly. Also the price was very average for home made jams. They had samples of every flavor we couldn't find one we didn't love.  Next time we are in the..." Read more

"I stopped by Mendocino Jams & Preserves yesterday morning while on a weekend getaway to the area and I'm so glad I did! Lisa was incredibly friendly and personable and the selection of jams and mustards were great, with samples of everything. It was the quaintest little shop and I walked out with some delicious spicy honey mustard and raspberry jam that..." Read more

"What a quaint little place to buy jams and preserves in downtown Mendocino. Every kind of jam there was just delicious. We especially loved their apple butter, bosenberry and orange marmalades. The only downside is the price -- as Mendocino is a touristy  spot they take advantage of the tourists and the jams are a bit on the pricey side. But if you don't min..." Read more

"I make an annual pilgrimage to Mendo J&P, a regular customer since the late 80's.  Their jams are unmatched.  They use only premium ingredients, made the way you would at home (if you had 25 years experience).  The bad news is they charge top dollar for the luxurious products.  I buy a case or so in various flavors each visit, Sour Cherry, Orange Marmala..."

"We bought a jar of strawberry jam from this cute little store. Maybe a boring choice but one of our favorites. The jam is really good!

Its a little pricey so I like that they let you try the jams before you buy.

I also like that I can pronounce everything on the very short ingredient list."

"This is the kind of shop you would expect in Petticoat Junction where Kate Bradley would have her shapely virginal daughters - Billie Jo, Bobbie Jo and Betty Jo - making the preserves by hand in the back of the Shady Rest Hotel ...and Uncle Joe ...well, Uncle Joe, he's-a movin' kinda slow...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m-0YBr-6IxE After a brisk wal..."

"Peanut butter is peanut butter, right?  WRONG!The crunchy peanut butter here is superb.  The texture is unlike random store crunchy peanut butter.  You feel like you are actually eating peanuts that had their puree stopped midway through the process instead of regular peanut butter with a few chopped up peanuts thrown in.  We also loaded up o..."
