The inside is spacious, lots of nature light, and the store is full of unique pieces. It reminds me of World Market with the array of kitchen and cooking tools and knickknacks. There's some food and drink items sold here, but they are more curated and locally owned versus big brands you'd find elsewhere. If you are looking for gifts for a special someone I would come here and see if anything catches your eye, especially for a housewarming gift or the cook/baker in your life. Will definitely be back.
