Holy cow! I've driven passed this place for years, & every time thought, "I really need to stop in…read moresome day." Well, yesterday was the day & it wasn't at all what I expected. From the road you can see a large selection of cement statuary, which was a lot of fun to stroll around. Kids would LOVE it here. And sizes, themes & prices to satisfy everyone (they must have more than a dozen choices in frog statues alone). Their nursery stock looked well cared for, & the friendly staff told me to come back in the spring for annuals. But the real wonder starts when you step inside their building. It's a gigantic - gigantic! - gift shop with items for every holiday & interest. I don't think my mouth closed the entire time I was there. Easy location, friendly staff & just plain fun stuff to look at. Do yourself a favor & stop in sometime soon!

I found all kinds of items from local vendors like tea, jewelry, dog treats, some really cool mystery book dates, pottery, the list goes on. You would think that because everything there is from vendors it would be a little expensive but it's not there's a lot of craftsmanship put into the products making everything worth the price! Every time I go into the store, there are either new items to look at or old items that I overlooked. If you go, make sure you give yourself plenty of time to look around because it's very easy to lose time once you get in there!

It isn't just the typical stuff you find at box shops. The uniqueness and low prices of this store make it a hidden treasure (not to be confused with the store across the street similarly named...) It is small in size, but large in offerings. They have gift boxes and baskets to choose from and send as well. Try some of the hand made candies and sodas. The pasta is GREAT!

When I traveled to the Province of Bavaria, I thought I could find Lederhosen for less money. I was wrong, the prices are competitive with shops in Bavaria. When I went to buy my 5-piece Tracht (traditional German clothing) the size Bundhosen I thought was the correct size was out of stock. Instead of just ordering 1 size larger they ordered a few sizes larger too. Turns out the size that actually fit me was two sizes larger. Had they just ordered the size I thought would fit, I would have looked like an overstuffed sausage. Before buying my Tracht I checked online for Trachts and it turns out online isn't any cheaper for the same quality as I bought. At Bavarian Specialties a person can try on shoes, Bundhosen & Lederhosen, shirts, and hats. They also sell women clothing. The second day I put on my Bundhosen, the stitching failed which holds on the suspender button which was a manufacturing flaw. On my way to get them repaired I stopped in to let them know what happened. The owner was shocked and apologetic that the stitching failed. He told he would have it repaired at no cost to me. An Lager Mill employee told me he owned a pair Lederson for many years and button have never come off. Bavarian Specialties sells authentic made in Germany Lebkuchen, candies, and many other things to numerous to mention.
