Took the wrong road trying to locate the Trader Joe's... decent area tho.

It has many important stores but it gets very crowded on a holiday and heavy traffic on the parking lot

Was able to find a decent pair of, (size 10.5) work boots, short notice, late evening, on a Sunday night (2130).

Mission Village is one of the plazas I actually go to. I'll be going more often now because, sadly, my RiteAid is closing. For those of you that don't know yet, the RiteAid in what is known locally as RiteAid plaza will be closed as of 21 April, 2022. All prescriptions, and some people will move to the RiteAid across the street. As well as RiteAid, there is a pretty good donut shop, pizza, a Trader Joe's and a Goodyear tire center. I myself prefer Desert Engine if I need repairs, but that's another story. I f you are facing RiteAid, go right to the end of the buildings, turn left, and you will find Mollie's. In my NTBHO, Mollies is a wonderful cafe and has been an SJC tradition for years. Like BLTs? Try theirs. Anyone remember the Monte Cristo sandwich? You can get one here. Yup can get your paint and donuts for that room you need to get done (you can get hot donuts as early as 0400), zip home to that room you need to paint, hit Mollie's for lunch, and when you're done run to RiteAid for the pain reliever you need because you've been painting all day. But wasn't lunch great? There is plenty of parking including handicapped. Everything is wheelchair accessible. I can't list all the stores (well, I suppose I could, but I'm lazy like that) so the best thing to do is look online to see if what you need is there. It connects to the plaza to the south which has a Domino's pizza among other things, which in turn connects to the plaza to the south which has a Vons market, a pet store, sushi and, say it with me, other things. SJC has lots of things around the intersection of Del Obispo and Camino Capistrano. The sheriff's substation, city hall, pharmacies and markets, clothing stores and our claim to fame, our Spanish mission are all within walking distance of that intersection. Come on over and see us, we have a lot to offer!

Friendly place. They sewed two of my jackets that needed new zippers for $35 each. Great deal giving new life to my skiing down jackets that are roughly $300 new for each. Highly recommend!
