The Village Green Gallery serves a great niche in Weston. For tourists: The town is in a deadzone for internet, and the cafe offers tables to sit at to check your email. Only, the connection is unreliable in the 6+ times I've visited over the past 2 years. I find the prices for coffee and light pastries to be very expensive, and the service not that great, although there is careful attention paid to keep it all local. In comparison to the tsotchke knick-knacks of the Vermont Country Store and the Weston Village Store, the fine crafted pottery, jewelry, glasswork, and photographs are a breath of fresh air. All the pieces, while expensive, are truly a sight to behold. And there are a handful of intentionally lower-priced items like note cards and glass rings for sale, too. For locals: the Fuji'is host the Weston Film Club for monthly viewings and discussions on foreign and independent films. They also host a book club and open up the space for other community meetings. I highly recommend a viewing (usually during the week) of the Film Club. Pop in to browse! The location right on the West Village Green can't be beat! While this is a favorite, I treat it more like a museum to view the artwork, as there's little there that I can afford there and I've never been wowed by the hospitality of Mrs. Fuji, who's usually behind the counter of the cafe. Look elsewhere for food. Look no further if you need to check your email and want to be inspired by the artwork.

We found Sugar Bob's Finest Kind while driving across Vermont, and since we LOVE maple, we had to…read morestop. WOW -- what a find! This place is a maple lover's dream. The shop is packed with incredible maple products: a wide range of syrups, candies, nuts, snacks, and all kinds of creative maple treats. They also have a full‑service café, which was a great surprise. But the real showstopper was the Maple Creemee with Maple Crunchies -- a maple custard soft‑serve topped with maple sugar candy bits. This was easily among the best ice creams we've ever had... honestly, maybe the best. We were talking about it for the rest of the day. The staff was super friendly and helpful, guiding us through the products, offering suggestions, and even giving us a few samples. They knew once we tried the creemee we'd be hooked -- and they were right. We'll absolutely stop here again on our way back, and we'd go out of our way to visit in the future. This was a highlight of our trip for sure.

Every time I visit, each artist offers a different selection of new pieces as they are made. There are 2 floors and outdoor sculpture. This is a top destination when visiting the lovely town of Manchester!

On a rainy afternoon, my friend and I googled things to do in Manchester and this popped up. At the…read moretime of this review, they have been open two months. We walked into the most friendly staff member (I'm guessing owner!) who quickly explained how the process worked. They have a wide selection of crafts to do for a variety of price points. The owner was very transparent with my friend and I how prices worked and was incredibly friendly. Once we choose our crafts, she helped us set up and let us go at our own pace. The price point includes everything you need and no time limit! She also was kind enough to show us her book bedazzling class list and explained to us how it worked in case we wanted to come for it! She also explained how her classes are on the website which we later reviewed! I will say, this is a perfect craft for kids with grandparents or for people waiting out weather. I would totally come back the next time I'm in Manchester. The staff member also took time to listen to our feedback and ask for any possible suggestions of crafts as my friend and I are both horse people in Manchester for HITs Vermont. She really wanted to make sure she wasn't going to offend anyone by offering horse shoes to paint. It's really well worth the visit and I hope it's around for a long time. Ps. The best part is no clean up involved, she handled it all!

The owner and team are phenomenal - warm, welcoming, supportive, helpful, and encouraging. The space is stunning and huge, light and airy.

There are so many different crafting options which makes the pricing so fair; a $10 keychain, a $65 moss box - something for everyone. So many spaces to create! There are few third spaces these days and Gathered & Made feels this way. Truly a gem in Manchester for all ages. We're bringing friends and family next time!

The only thing keeping me from going with 5 stars is that they are pricey. If you are in the Sunapee area, it is worth a trip.
