After the first time he told me how impressed he was with the shop which says a lot because he hates shopping in general. Customer service only adds to the experience. If you do not see what you are looking for, or are unable to make a choice, assistance is offered without pressure. Definitely worth the trip.

Tip: Parking isn't available onsite or on the street, you have to use the municipal lot across the street. Well, after finally going in, I realized that the store used to be in Bristol Centre Mall before it was torn down and I used to go there when I was little. So of course nostalgia sets in and I'm in love. Eclectic is most likely the best word I can use to describe the store. Well, a tad crowded is also another good description but I guess the owner is truly going for more choices instead of streamlined simplicity. The owners name is Patty, she is a pip who loves to wait on you and give you deals on incense, beanie babies, concert tshirts or that charm you just have to have. This little store has so much charm and you just would never know when you drive by the dream catchers in the window that the character inside isn't just in the merchandise, it's in the spirit of that shop owner.

When you walk in, it's really a nice break from reality with all of the whimsical, antique, speakeasy feel. You can sip on tea and coffee and walk around the shop. Nice size biscotti went well with their tea. I had the blueberry muffin also. My friend and I had two cups of tea that were great! Staff is super nice and we could have spent more than 2 hrs in there just relaxing and catching up. I look forward to going back there. It's a nice intimate space to sit alone or a couple of friends.

Market Street Creatives is one of those places you walk into and immediately realize you need more…read moretime. The space is massive and filled with an incredible variety of local Connecticut vendors, from vintage finds and thrifted treasures to handmade goods, jewelry, custom woodwork, resin art, and personalized signs. Every corner has something different, which makes browsing feel like a treasure hunt. It's all quality items at great prices! One thing I really loved is how relaxed the shopping experience is. There are so many vendors to explore, but you never feel pressured or watched while you browse. You can take your time, enjoy looking around, and then check out in one central area, which makes the entire experience stress free and enjoyable. One of my favorite touches is the bar area, where you can grab everything from cocktails to coffee and even hot chocolate. It adds such a cozy, social vibe to the space and makes it easy to relax and enjoy your time while shopping. There is also a designated room where you can have food delivered right to you, which is such a fun and convenient concept. Cloud 9 Cookies absolutely deserves a special shoutout because they are unreal. Hands down some of the best cookies I have ever had. They are opening a full bakery downstairs soon, and that alone is reason enough to come back. If the cookies are any indication, it is going to be amazing. Between the creative energy, huge selection of local businesses, laid back service, and great food and drinks, Market Street Creatives is a must visit spot in Connecticut. It is the kind of place you can spend hours exploring and still want to come back for more.

"We'll count the hugs and kisses, When dividends are due,…read more 'Cause I'm in the market for you" (Louis Armstrong) You've probably been inside those vendor malls and indoor flea markets before, where the space (often inside an old industrial building) has been carved up into individual stalls or spaces, right? Well, there's a spanking brand new one in Torrington, and we visited them on their Grand Opening yesterday. The joint was jumping with two food trucks, 150 smiling vendors, raffle contests, and a parking lot that resembled Rentschler Field on game day. As their website states, "Market Street Creatives is a small business community where business owners can help one another, share ideas, and develop relationships that support the community". Simply put, the space is beautiful, I mean really gorgeous. And the vendors pretty much represent every home entrepreneur out there- from art, children's clothing and accessories, books, kitchenware, jewelry, food, candles, collectibles, sewing and embroidery, food, furniture, gifts, greeting cards, health and beauty aids, home décor, leather, linen, towels, office stuff, pottery, stained glass and dozens more. The Market is inside a huge multi-story brick building with art galleries on the walls between building sections. That brick building has a glorious history going back to the 1840's where companies under a series of names manufactured upholstery hardware, hooks and eyes, pins, nails, chains, handles, and even automated posting machines. In the early 2000's, the largest producer of weldless chain products in North America was right there in Torrington. That tenant (Perfection Chain) skedaddled to Alabama in 2013, when the building lay dormant until its 2025 resurrection as Market Street Creatives.
