It's not just a shop--it's a testament to the local artisans who pour their soul into every piece of jewelry, every jar of honey, every loaf of artisanal bread. You can feel the passion in every corner, where art and craftsmanship blend seamlessly. One of the owners, Kim, welcomed us like old friends, giving us a personal tour of her eclectic collection, a rare and beautiful mix of everything you'd want in a one-stop shop. We traveled all the way from Hawaii and found this gem--worth every mile.

The hours aren't extremely prolific, so be sure to check the website for information. Enjoy!

Locally made crafts/gifts/cards and the store is filled to the brim with lovely things! Good to note: If you put 50 Pleasant street Norwich in your GPS it will take you to the back of the building which is the wrong side. Go past pleasant st and the parking lot is on your left! Or search for Dexters smoothie and Coffee vault. The location is a little odd but definitely a hidden gem!

It's hard to walk away from this store coz it's so cute n adorable and evokes an interest just from the outside and makes you curious on what you may find inside... its quite small .. a hodgepodge of wonderful handmade crafts all made locally in CT... makes for a one of a kind gift... I bought some whimsical clips and rings for the kids and they weren't priced too high which makes it all the more wonderful.... hard to list what you can find coz there are just too many knick knacks but to give you an idea handmade greeting cards, seasonal items... earrings, lip balm holders, hand carved stone animals...you can spend a good lot of time if you enjoy things like this. Also, when you purchase goods from local artisans, you're supporting their business, which helps strengthen the local economy.

100% recommend this business…read more My mother is a big fan of Linda Lou and Billy Joe sink strainers. Wayside Country Store has a great selection of Linda Lou sink strainers, my mother was searching for a few designs she didn't own yet and we found them on Wayside Country Store's website. We placed an order for four different strainers (hummingbird, kitty, fishy & butterfly) but due to a storm and outage the store was unable to process the order. I gave them a call and they happily processed my order over the phone. They were extremely apologetic and friendly. Once the shipment arrived we found that we had received two kitty strainers and no fishy strainer. I emailed their customer service and they immediately offered a replacement or credit. We asked for a replacement stating we'd be happy to pay for it (just hoping maybe Wayside could cover shipping) however they shipped out a replacement to us at no cost. We will be ordering again!

I did not notice any elevator so it would be a hard shop for those who are disabled. Not by any fault of the store owners its an old building. I could not tell the vibe if you could negotiate. But the reason they lost a star was because most things we were interested in were double the price. Lots to see it kept us busy for almost two hours!
