The Crowe's Nest Of Tubac

We needed a travel pack with room for water and small pockets We found it here. This will do.

We went in here twice. They have a wonderful selection but they were so rude on two different occasions. I went back a second time in hopes that I was wrong about my initial impression and I could purchase what I wanted but two minutes in they were asking us not to pinch a hat (we tried on a hat definitely did not pinch a hat).

Hands down my favorite store in all of Tubac. The Tubac area has so many little shops to choose from but this store has the best trinkets and by the far the friendliest staff. Ann and Avi (store owners) always go above and beyond to ensure you'll have a great experience. Great place to go if you're looking for a new hat or leather goods. Definitely worth checking out if you're in the area.

Today I witnessed my dad shopping for a hat at the crowe's nest and as he tried on different sizes and colors he took a few pictures. the associate with gray curly hair (store owner?), walked over and accused my dad of using the store just to try on the hats and that he was going to go home and purchase it online. It really came out of the blue and I was shocked to see the associate falsely accuse my dad and then quickly escalate the situation to try and start heated argument about small business owners. My dad is quite mild mannered and just started to walk out of the store at this point. Super super weird and uncalled for from the associate. He lost business today because my dad was really planning to purchase the hat in the store. I wonder if he runs all of his customers out of the store like that or if he got confused and offended that my dad was taking photos of the hats. I hope this review is helpful and maybe consider taking your business elsewhere.

the first review of this place had an eerily similar experience to what has just happened. i just visited this store with my parents and on first impression it was very cute and had inventory that you couldn't find in any of the other stores. i immediately found something i'd been looking for all day. i kept it in my hands as we all continued perusing around the store. we stopped at the hats and my dad found one that he was very interested in and intended on buying. i continued shopping around while he inspected it further. i don't know if this man had a bad morning or what, but all of the sudden the clerk said "okay, did you get what you need ? you can put it down now and leave." As you can expect my dad was taken aback and said "oh i was planning on buying it," and the man said "no you're looking on your phone for a cheaper price and i don't need a that in my store so you can leave." my dad did have his phone out, but it was because he was going to check what other colors the company might have online to make sure he made an informed purchase. he also said "this isn't a gallery, this is a shop that you buy things in." on our way out i put back the item that i was really excited about purchasing. i'm honestly a little sick about that experience and it put a damper on our afternoon. even if my dad HAD been searching for a better price, it's not a crime to be a conscious consumer ? we are big supporters of small businesses and i do understand frustration of big online companies stealing business, which is why we went to tubac in the first place.? we don't even mind paying a little more if it's to support small business owners and we can get it right away ! but we surely shouldn't be verbally attacked in the store while we have merchandise ready to buy in our hands. it's such a bummer because everyone else's establishments had been very friendly all day, so to be treated like this was really disappointing. will not be coming back in the future after being chased out of the store and i recommend that if you do go in, stay off your phone.

I was in Tubac for a golf outing two weeks ago. I love this store. This time I found 2 beautiful blouses/tops that were on sale AND very stylish. The owners have always been very helpful and kind to me. I had a lovely conversation with the male owner at the register. Whenever in Tubac I will return.
