I liked the art hanging on the walls, the very industrial/steam punk styled messenger bags. If you are willing to part with $69.00, one of them could be yours. There were some fun mermaid prints, horse prints on dictionary pages, and patent application prints...the one for the gun and type writer almost went home with me. My MIL came out with some cute jewelry and my SIL got a horse themed glass cutting board for her horse loving friend. Check this cool shop out!

This facility is on the road to Chincoteague Island but has limited hours and has rarely been open…read moreduring my trips to the region. So I saw an opportunity and stopped in. I just wasn't impressed. As an organization, NASA has lost a lot of its luster in the public eye, but just on a practical level, this building was basically just one hall with some exhibits, a rooftop deck where you couldn't see much, and a movie theater basically playing short, vague ads for what they do on a loop. The site seemed dated; there is some majesty in exploring old ruins sometimes, but looking at a rocket with lichen growing it just doesn't activate that same sense of wonder for me. It's free, but I just took a modest look around and figured I'd rather be at the beach. My hope is that the substantive business that NASA does in the area is worthwhile even if this visitor center doesn't offer much.

Zero stars if that were an option…read more I have passed this place my entire life and always assumed it was a reputable local business. After today, I understand why so many people say it has gone downhill. My husband called in advance to confirm their buy/sell practices before we ever drove over. Because paying spot price for gold and silver is not typical, he explicitly questioned it and confirmed it multiple times over the phone to make sure there was no mistake. Each time, he was told they pay spot price. Only after receiving that confirmation did we load our family into the car and drive out of our way to do business there. Once inside, the story suddenly changed. Instead of apologizing for the misinformation given by their own employee, the staff responded with dismissiveness, mockery, and open disrespect. While I stepped out briefly to retrieve items we had forgotten, my husband was treated as if he were wasting their time or trying to pull something dishonest, despite the fact that he had done exactly what a responsible customer should do by confirming details ahead of time. What stood out most was not just the misinformation, but the attitude: condescending, unprofessional, and openly hostile. No accountability. No attempt to resolve the situation. Just defensiveness and ridicule. Businesses that deal in valuables rely on trust. When staff are poorly trained, contradict one another, and then humiliate customers for relying on information they themselves provided, that trust is gone instantly. This experience was embarrassing, frustrating, and completely avoidable. The empty parking lot speaks for itself. If you value professionalism, transparency, and basic respect, I strongly recommend taking your business elsewhere. I know we will -- permanently.

This is a cute shop to buy a souvenir in Cape Charles! If you're a family or have a kid with you,…read moreThe Boardwalk should be on your must to-visit list. The store is very coastally cute with nautical items, an abundance of Cape Charles branded items and the little trinkets I remember obligatory buying for friends and family when I went on vacation without them. However, make no mistake, not everything in here is kitschy. If the vibe in your home is nautical, they have a huge selection of kitchen wares, decor, candles and more that go with that theme. It can be easy to get swept away in that feeling (no pun intended) In the back of the store, they have a fairly large toy section which is going to delight the heck out of any kid! Overall, this shop is very sweet and a worthy stop on your stroll through Cape Charles. It's on the main downtown block in Cape Charles, surrounded by other sweet local businesses. Bring your kids in here to find a fun souvenir, or just let yourself be surprised and walk away with something to remind you of this cute coastal town.
