It's mostly a Popeye souvenir shop, with some old collectible items on display (not for sale) as well as an old antique shop attached to it. This is housed in an old opera house where Popeye creator Elzie Segar worked at. His boss inspired the Wimpy character. It's like taking a step back in time while browsing through the old comic book displays, as well as old Popeye toys. The lady who runs the place has even said that she has over 5,000 more items to display but unfortunately the building is not big enough to show them all! (The upstairs are apartments) I bought some magnets and shot glasses (two things I mostly collect when I visit places). I'm sure they have what you're looking for. Just remember - this is the one place in the world that is all things Popeye!

Dogs are welcome in the store. There's a wide selection of Popeye memorabilia that they've collected over the years along with new stuff like t-shirts for the whole family. We ended up getting t-shirts along with one for the baby on the way. We also got some snazzy lapel pins for the nephews who wills to them. Aside from Popeye gifts, you can also find other characters like Betty Boop. Definitely stop by if you are already in town visiting Chester, Illinois and the Popeye statues in town!

All FANTASTIC and highly recommended! Only negatives are; * limited menu and limited hours ( but as the delightful owner/only cook, Jeannette puts it: "She's it."). You have to check web-site daily to see that day's whimsical menu. * maybe nit picking but view on webpage is not their view... Still pretty though. A few tips: 1. Make a rez (small place and she has to turn people away sometimes) ...be a shame to drive all that way and not eat. 2. It's not too too hard to find...looking for the signs helps. Best to use directions from their website rather than mapquest ( which has some mileage off) both work though. * There is no town really of "Fults, IL"...nearest quaint town is Maeystown for a drive through on way back via Bluff road. On that note, HIGHLY recommend driving back via BLUFF ROAD. Melissa, the farmer's daughter (I know, and shame on you), will tell you how to get there...it's real easy...bucolic, river valley farmland on your left, river bluffs on your right Just as fast back to stl as route 3, ...but what do you care ...it's the journey as much as the destination, right? :) Hope this helped, John

Yesterday two friends and I drove across the JB Bridge, through Columbia and Waterloo to Kaskaskia…read moreRd., then on about another 6 miles or so to find a recommended lunch place. The drive was less than 20 minutes from the bridge, good roads and farmland. It would be lovely with fall color! Signage begins at Kaskaskia road, so it was not difficult to find. When we arrived we parked at the remodeled barn than houses the restaurant and gift shop. There are two outdoor dining areas as well as a few tables inside. The owner and her daughters welcomed us warmly. Jeannette, the owner, makes all of the food, locally grown whenever possible. Each of us had either spinach or asparagus quiche and it was light, creamy and delicious! It came with a Italian style green salad and fresh bread. One of us had cheesecake with strawberries that Jeannette had grown and frozen herself. The other two had buttermilk pie simply because we had always heard of it but never tried it... also delicious, topped with freshly whipped cream. We were seated near the kitchen and Jeannette chatted with us amiably while she tossed fresh salads for each order and warmed dishes individually for the guests. It was as though we were dining with a friend. They serve bottled water and soda as well as wine and beer. The gift shop has very cute items such as you would see in any nice gift boutique. Although lunch, water and dessert ran each of us $18+, all three of us intend to return. With the cooler weather Jeannette promises to add pot pie to the menu which changes with available ingredients and her mood.
