Not only did Mr. Allen know exactly what size I was without a single measurement, he chose a perfect pair of chinos, altered and shipped them for free. Gentleman's Gallery is well worth the price due to the professionalism of Mr. Allen and high quality of the clothes. After settling up with him, Mr. Allen also gave us great recommendations for dinner and a relaxing spa to enjoy for our honeymoon.

I picked up a pretty sweet tee and some cologne. It is a little pricey, but after checking online at what other stores offered, it's a fair price for quality items. Every item in the store had a unique look to it and fit the vintage inspired theme of the store. The staff was really friendly, the guy who ran the store took my email when I couldn't find the size of a tee shirt I wanted, and he offered to send me an e-mail when it was available, and ship it to me if I would like. He genuinely seemed interested in making sure I had a good experience at his store, and was not pushy at all. Overall it was a great store filled with Asheville charm.

There is minimal risk of infection at Asheville's most wonderful boutique! They are all masked up and make sure that their patrons are as well. They limit the number of people allowed in the shop, they steam clean any clothes that have been tried on and they disinfect the store between shoppers. If you have a problem with their safety protocols then you are a twit and should crawl back into the darkness from whence you came! Can't wait to shop there again! xoxo

There's clothing, decorations, foodstuffs, barrels of candy, toys, souvenirs...

Bring the whole family -- the kids will enjoy the large toy and candy section -- and I didn't even look at the large Mast-branded jams, jellies and jarred food section because I wouldn't be able to fit them in my suitcase.
