I love a local gift shop, but Bradley's is so much more than that! What started as a chocolate shop…read morein 1995 has expanded into a local hub for Knoxville gifts, as well as jewelry, home decor, stationary, candles, baby goods/gifts, and an in-house chocolatier. They even create beautiful gift baskets for any possible special occasion. This is the type of spot I could spend hours in with a smile on my face, although they do have a user-friendly website that allows you to shop and order online with the option of both shipping or store pickup, too. While I could have purchased the entire store and died happy, I opted for chocolate this time around. After watching chocolate being made next door (glass windows inside the store that look into the "chocolate factory" area), I knew I needed to try the dark chocolate STAT! The workers behind the counter were so darn sweet (pun intended) and helpful. They offered samples galore and recommendations when asked. I ended up ordering dark chocolate caramels, nonpareil dots, peanut butter melts, and turtles. Everything was incredible, but my husband and I have been dreaming about the dark chocolate caramels (the round, gooey version...we didn't try the chewy caramels yet). I grew up obsessed with Sno-Caps candy, and their Dark Chocolate Dots are heavenly. The chocolate is just such good quality, better than any other chocolate shop I've tried thus far. Can't wait to go back for both sweet and gifts for loved ones.

This is what I think antique stores should look like. Everything is displayed beautifully and the furniture is not rickety garbage. Not all pieces are old, but worthy of being placed with antiques. Great accessories, not just shelves of carnival glass. Someone mentioned the prices are higher than some, but my daughter and I felt like they were lower than antiques in Knoxville and much lower than antiques in Atlanta or Nashville. The prices may be high for Sweetwater standards, but it is by far the nicest store in Sweetwater. The town itself is cute and worth the drive.

Almost wall to wall people walking and shopping. My brother and I though were on a mission with limited time so we dodged and weaved politely in the crowds to make our way to the Knoxville Smokies store. The Smokies are a minor league team with an affliation to the Chicago Cubs. We love the older logo of the Bear with the word Smokies above and not so much of the newer logo. I did find a beanie and my brother found a visor. The team behind the counter were very kind and helpful as we added a couple of smaller items to our purchases. The Knoxville Smokies' official store sells on-field caps and new novelties, merchandise, collectibles, trading cards and supplies. Go Smokies!
