Need a last minute gift? No worries - we've gathered a list of some top local shops to grab a present in a pinch.

Is it just us or does it seem like the end of year goes by in the blink of an eye? Things can get hectic between holiday gatherings and work parties, visiting relatives and seasonal events —shopping for gifts sometimes seems to be the last thing on your mind. When you find yourself empty handed, check out a few of our favorite spots to grab those last minute gifts during the holiday season.

For the little ones:

Hobby Quest is your headquarters for all things gaming. Pick up toys, games, and collectibles for the kids, teens, and gamers in your life.

For the artist:

Pinot's Palette is the perfect place for your creative friends and family. Choose an experience they won’t forget like their Paint & Sip class or a take home paint kit so they can explore their inner artist and have their very own canvas to show for it.

For the person who has everything:

A Seat at the Table is a family-owned bookstore, cafe, and community hub that has it all. Books stationary, coffee, tea, and desserts — you’ll be sure to find an eclectic array of gifts for everyone on your list.

For the plant lover:

Give the gift of greenery by picking up a plant, cacti, or succulent at The Secret Garden. Not only will you find a plethora of flora throughout the nursery, you can grab stocking stuffers and cards to go along in the giftshop.

For the foodie:

Need a gift for someone with a sweet tooth? Check out The Cookie Jar for gift boxes of specialty cookies. Or pick up a bag of the freshest popcorn around from local growers from The Popcorn Store. They even have special seasonal flavors for everyone to enjoy.

For the wine lover:

For the person who wants to lift their holiday spirit(s) grab a bottle from any of Elk Grove’s breweries & wineries. Our local breweries and wineries also have unique merchandise for you to pair with their favorite libation.
