STORE STATUS: NOW CLOSED…read more Finnish Treasures Gift Shop was a true treasure in the scenic Fairport Harbor. It has been part of the community for 20 years! I only found the store a few years ago.The shop recently closed its doors (on December 13, 2015). It was the saddest closure for this little area. Finnish Treasures Gift Shop used to sell souvenirs from Scandinavian countries - Finland, Norway, and Sweden. There were also some limited products from Russia. The souvenirs really captured the culture and sisu traditions - wood woven shoes and bags, dolls, chocolates, books, furs, teas, and fresh Finnish bread. All products were well priced and many felt really artisan. Seeing Moomin merchandise was such a beautiful reminder of my own childhood and learning to embrace winter. The owner Laura was always incredibly kind, welcoming, and open about sharing her culture. I loved supporting this store, and wish that it was a forever part of Fairport Harbor. The owner is now retired. I will really miss this one-of-a-kind store. Finnish Museum: While the store is now closed, you can still support this wonderful family. The husband of the owner (Veikko) of Finnish Treasures Gift Shop has a museum - Finnish Heritage Museum. You might ask why the Finnish museum in Fairport Harbor? I asked the same thing during my museum and store visits. There was a significant immigration of Finnish to Cleveland in 1885. Many have arrived at Fairport Harbor and called it home. The Finnish Museum provides a very immersive cultural experience with artifacts, art, and even an indoor mock sauna. The museum hosts various cultural events that are usually published on Facebook or their website. This museum is a must visit year round. You can still celebrate Finnish cultural legacy in Fairport Harbor.

We are headed to Ohio this weekend so hoping the shop will be open when we go there. We will visit the museum across the street also. Fairport Harbor is a neat little town and we enjoyed lunch at the Sunset Grill right on Lake Erie.

And by price too. The outdoor stalls are being refurbished, and the section that is complete is just like the historic stalls but much nicer, brand new, clean. Outdoors is the produce. Inside is all the rest - meat, cheese, baked goods, spices, coffee, international foods...the list goes on and on. The ceiling is like an old train station , but purpose built in 1912 to be a bad*ss market. Gorgeous. About 130ish stalls. Cafe/bistro in ine corner, Johnny's hot dog joint in another. Kate's Fish, Peroigi Palace, Frank's Brats, Jim's Meats, Wiencek Poultry, Czuchraj Meats...i could go on... Get a buttermilk at Annemaries - salt and pepper on top is how my Dad did it. That tradition will stay with me forever. Grab a smokie at Czuchraj and stroll the stalls, get your shopping done, or just relax the day away.

If you want to support local the West Side Market is the perfect stop, it doesn't matter the day of week, unless you are looking for the cafe to be open. I love being able to get my produce along with fresh seafood at Kate's and pasta from Ohio City, full meal planning in one stop, especially when you can grab a fresh bouquet that finishes your table setting. Parking is even easier with one hour free and scan and pay if you are going to shop at a leisurely pace.

Norbert Koehn's work should be internationally known! Seriously, he's that good. I first met him…read morewhen he did some pieces for our seminary chapel back in the 80s. This guy is the real deal in the line of the great masters of the Medieval and Renaissance era. No exaggeration. Notice how few 5-star ratings I give on anything here on Yelp. It might be a bit demeaning even to rate him on Yelp. He brings old-world craftsmanship and creativity to the 21st century. There are few artisans in the world...literally, who could compare with his imagination and execution. You'd have to go to Oberammergau to get something comparable. He works primarily in wood, which is much warmer than marble. He has an incredible capacity for gold-leaf and polychrome statues. While his work is mainly in the sacred arts, he does some outstanding pieces out of his studio, which is a unique, must-visit place on S. Green Road! Thank you, Norbert and family, for bringing such talent to Cleveland that can't be found even in large European (or American) cities!

By the time we walked past the store to have lunch, we had our hands full of items to buy. The lunch was lovely. To decide which tea to get, it was so hard since they had so many to choose from. Soups were delicious. The lunch was just right and delicious! And of course and cakes were yummy! They have such a wonderful collection items! Great place to buy gifts too.

So, I guess if you want to blow your girl's mind with some sex, come here and ask for the stuff they have behind the counter. And they have six foot lucky bamboo plants for $8.

I visited Rally House for the first time on October 10th, 2024. I came to look for a long sleeve top to wear to my first NFL (professional football) game. The game was on October 20th so I had 10 days to find a jersey or sweater. I had been to many college football games in the past but never to an NFL game. OPTIONS -- They sell all sorts of sports clothing and memorabilia to choose from. The sports that I saw represented in the store is baseball (MLB), American football (NFL), and Ohio college teams (Ohio State, Akron, BGSU, and CSU). There were probably more sports that I may have missed being shown in the store. There are plenty of tops and bottoms to choose from with different colours and sizes. MY PURCHASE -- I absolutely loved my purchase. I decided to buy a more practical clothing item rather than a sports jersey. I bought a white Cleveland Browns sweater which I can wear anytime instead of just on football game days (see attached photo). The sweater is cute and unique plus it was cheaper than a licensed NFL jersey. The sweater that I bought has brown and orange lines or patches on the sleeves and a small Browns team mascot on the top backside. Cleveland Browns is written on the front of the sweater but it doesn't look like a sports sweater at all but it does have the Browns team colours. It definitely wasn't cheap (around $65 before tax) and I could have found something for $20-30 cheaper at Marshall's, TJ Maxx, or even the Giant Eagle little sports section. It will last me a long time so I'm happy with my purchase. If you're looking for a sports t-shirt or jersey then visit Rally House. They also sell kids sports attire, sports earrings, little sports teddy bears, sweatpants, sport jackets, etc. **** GOAL of 150 reviews in 2024 - 124/150 total reviews in 2024 - 773 total overall Yelp reviews - Reviewed on 8 December 2024
