The instructor was incredibly nice and patient, and we learned a lot in a short amount of time. I wish the plates we made didn't have to spend so much time in the kiln, and I can't wait til we can pick them up! I would highly recommend going and doing a class there. It's a nice night away from phones or Netflix and just allows you to tap into your creative side. Definitely will be coming back for more classes in the future.

It's been nearly three years since we were last in Mystic, and on this trip we discovered one of…read moreour favorite independent bookstores is gone! Well, gone from downtown, anyway. Nearly two years ago, we discovered, Bank Square Books closed up and moved to 80 Stonington Road, about a mile and a half from its previous location. We were surprised but very happy it is still around and, we hope, flourishing. The new location offers more interior space and better, easier parking. The result is more room for customer browsing, and, we suppose, more room for more books and stuff like cards, games etc. It's fun to stroll around the store but gosh, it sure feels different from what we expected. We wish the store well, of course; we'll keep coming back.

Bank Square Books is beautiful bookstore in downtown Mystic. It is independently owned, by the…read morecurrent owners since 2006. It has been a bookstore in this very location for 35 years. When I first walked inside I was under the impression that this is a tiny bookstore, the further I walked the more books I would discover. This isn't a tiny bookstore, it is moderately sized. I loved the variety of books available. There's fiction, history, brand new releases, kids, and specific interests such as birds. In addition to the books, they also have some giftable items. There's wrapping paper and cards here also. They also have comfy chairs and couches so you can get comfy while reading. This is such a beautiful bookstore that I'm glad to support in downtown Mystic.

It wasn't restricted for COVID and I felt like we were a bit packed in.

This shop was definitely one of the cheaper trinket shops in the village and is worth a browse.
