The staff was helpful with questions and placing orders. Though there are nice things to purchase there, do not order anything. After waiting over a month for an item, without receiving call went in to ask about it. Then learned they have no control over what is shipped to them even if it has been ordered and prepaid (as their request). Though, be sure to notice some of the original features of the original train station. Nice to see a local business in a piece of area hostor

Whether you want a one of a kind personalized wedding gift, a favorite addition to one of your collections or a rare gift for someone dear to your heart Steger Creek will have everything to fulfill your shopping list.

Please do not miss an opportunity to give this shop a try. It has something for everyone.

One late afternoon, as we drove along Apperson Drive in Salem, Virginia, in search of an antique or…read moregift shop, we ran into a very one of a kind and unique store named "Buy The Season: Home Decor for Every Season." Its large street sign attracted our attention, and even though it was late and almost closing time, my friend and I decided to stop and give it a look. It contained one of the largest selections of unique seasonal home decor and furniture of Roanoke Valley, with over 150 vendors. We parked and went inside, and I was impressed with how well everything was organized. The nice cool temperature of the place and the pleasant smell motivated one to walk around and explore all the items exhibited there. It was time to close, so I asked for a business card, and we decided to return next week and then have dinner in one of the many great restaurants in Salem. So, on the next week, we arrived early in the afternoon with enough time to explore the entire extremely large store space. There were some antiques in good or almost excellent condition, some Americana collections, some perfect antique, and Americana collections, some wonderful pieces of quality furniture including some Ethan Allen, some unique signs with sayings, jewelry, glassware, silverware, homemade greeting cards, books, and almost all you can think of. There is also a space with the Apperson Cafe with bread and some other bakery items made by the Amish. I was also able to talk with some of the vendors who were bringing new items to their space or cleaning the last items they brought and arranging them. They were wonderful individuals who really enjoyed finding the items and putting them for sale at very reasonable prices. The owner of the store also had items for sale there, and the salespeople treated us very kind as we asked them some questions. I would definitely recommend this store to those looking for gifts or items to decorate their own place.

What a GREAT place! Something for everyone! They even have buggy's to carry your treasures.read more

I wish I could teleport this store to New York so I could shop there more regularly. I love…read moregreeting cards and the selection here is incredible and it took incredible restraint on my part to only buy seven of them! My husband on the other hand, showed no such restraint in the confection department as we spent a lot of green on candy purchases both times we visited the store during our long weekend in Roanoke. They also have so many neat gift ideas and items for your house. If you like to have fun cocktail napkins at your parties, you will find a huge assortment here. If I'd had a bigger suitcase, I would have bought more. The staff here is super friendly and helpful. They seem to enjoy what they do and it shows in the pride they take in the store and in their interactions with customers. Excellent place!

Woodshed is a new shop in downtown Roanoke that specializes in Appalachian crafts and coffee,…read morelocated at 409 S. Jefferson Street. Formerly known as Crafteria, the business has rebranded and moved to a new, larger location next to the Mast General Store, offering a modern Appalachian cafe and handmade goods. After being awarded the Yelp NC Triad Squad Yelper of the Year 2024 Award at the Yelpies Award Ceremony last year, an event that honored the highest-performing Yelp Elites, celebrating their contributions and accomplishments throughout the year, I decided that this year, as an All-Star Yelp Elite, I not only wanted to be the first to discover new restaurants and businesses, and bring them to the attention of the public, but also to uncover those found in hidden paths that for one reason or another have not reached the public in its totality. Woodshed: Appalachian Crafts & Coffee Cafe, in Downtown Roanoke, Virginia, is a perfect example. Today, as I was leaving Jack's Men's Fine Grooming, after getting a haircut, I happened to notice this new shop across the street, that workers had just finished installing it's name building sign. I couldn't help but quickly crossing the street to find out if it was already open or when would it be. Inside, a friendly and very kind gentleman by the name of Jacob, greeted and welcomed me to this new establishment that had just opened today. He explained how they featured locally-made crafts and items sourced from the Appalachian region. He explained how the Cafe had still yet to open, but encouraged me to take my time and walk around to see the diverse array of handmade goods with particular strong showing in pottery, jewelry, woodworks, and various forms of home decor. Common types of products that I was able to find included: pottery and ceramics, jewelry, textiles and fiber arts, woodwork and home decor, bath and body products, specialty foods and treats, artwork and prints, and books and paper goods. This place will also include a modern Appalachian cafe serving breakfast and lunch seven days a week, slated to open very soon in early 2026. I invite you to view my photographs accompanying this review to get a better sense of the place and its amazing merchandise, and then go bye and visit. I'm sure you'll find one-of-a-kind items to take home with you and some to give out as gifts to those special people in your life during the Holiday Season.
