    I love this store! There are gadgets and gizmos galore! Upon entering call there's all kinds of…read morefood to the left including honeys, soups, and crackers. They have a wonderful cake decorating section as well as lots of oxo brand kitchen accessories. But the upstairs! The upstairs is amazing, with an apron and table cloth hallway, That leads you to the room of Le Creuset and every pot and pan of your dreams! If you are looking for a small pinch bowl or a large Dutch oven, this is your place!

    Salt and PepperGate I can't even…read more... Insane. Absolutely insane experience. I brought back a defective product to the store -- a pair of $200 salt and pepper mills I had purchased there about two weeks ago. I had just unwrapped them and filled them the day before, only to discover that the surfaces on the bottoms were literally disintegrating. The young woman behind the counter was actually very nice. She even remembered me from when I bought them. She asked me to step to the side while she spoke to the manager because, apparently, "these didn't leave the store in this condition." I said, "Okay," and stepped aside to look at some other things while I waited. I genuinely thought I had just had a perfectly normal, friendly interaction with her. I had absolutely no idea I was apparently the opening act for The Salt & Pepper Mill Hostage Crisis. The manager comes out and asks if he can help me. I say, "Yes! I bought these awesome salt and pepper mills here a couple of weeks ago, and I just opened them and discovered they're disintegrating. Look." This man immediately launches into me that these products did not leave the store in the condition I was returning them in and accuses me of letting them sit in water or otherwise intentionally damaging them. I'm thinking, What the actual $&@? I asked him, "Do you really think I'm lying?" He said, "Yes. You must be." At this point I'm like... WHY ARE WE DOING THIS? He tells me I was aggressive with the cashier. I said, "I was??? OMG. I had literally said hello, showed her the mills and explained that I was SAD because I had just unpacked them and they were falling apart." She then told the manager that this was not how they left the store. I'm sorry, but... WHY WOULD I DRIVE AN HOUR TO BRING BACK SOMETHING I HAD INTENTIONALLY DESTROYED? Especially when, at the time I bought them, this SAME PERSON proudly told me they had a LIFETIME GUARANTEE. A lifetime guarantee. It had been TWO WEEKS. Then this guy looks me up and triumphantly announces: "IT'S BEEN ALMOST 30 DAYS." I'm like... okay? I wasn't even asking for a refund at that point. I was bringing them back because they were defective and trying to figure out what the hell to do about it. Also... 30 days is not a lifetime. And then things somehow got even crazier. The young woman IS BEYOND UPSET, reaches for the phone and tells me to leave the store and gets right in my face like I'm a threat to her. I'm standing there thinking, WHAT IS HAPPENING? I may have said something unkind at that point -- BUT I WAS PROVOKED and for that, I will concede that I probably could have chosen better words. But I still didn't raise my voice or lose my cool. I was simply completely bewildered by what was happening. Then an older woman comes out from behind the counter and suddenly ALL THREE OF THEM ARE YELLING AT ME TO LEAVE. They literally ganged up on me like the mean girls in a middle-school cafeteria. I felt like a trapped rat. And all of this... OVER A SALT AND PEPPER MILL. They told me to leave or they were calling the police. I'm thinking, THE POLICE?! For what? Aggravated pepper grinding?! Eventually the older woman, who was shaking and yelling, managed to tell me that they would tell any customer that defective products had to be handled through the manufacturer. I said, "Okay. I hear you. But why are you all so horrible?" She said: "Because you're upsetting everyone." I said: "I'M upsetting everyone?! Good lord. Imagine this family's Thanksgiving dinner." At that point, the guy who runs the pottery shop next door apparently got called in as backup and walked me out. Now the whole store was involved. And here's the thing: he remembered me. I had bought a couple hundred dollars worth of stuff from him the same day I bought the mills. And unlike everyone else, he was just... normal. He was calm, understanding and completely reasonable. Which honestly made the whole thing even more surreal. I walked out thinking, I am a normal person. What the hell just happened? I have never experienced anything quite like it. I loved those $200 salt and pepper mills. Apparently, they come with a lifetime guarantee and a complimentary nervous breakdown. Absolute worst customer service experience I've ever had. I'm not saying you shouldn't shop there. I am sharing my story because I was mistreated and neither heard nor cared for by the owners of a business that earn their living from good people who deserve better. Plus these people should read about themselves, look in the mirror and be embarrassed with themselves. What a mess!!!!! Horrifying!!!!!

    Wow! What a selection of gourmet olive oils, balsamic vinegars, specialty opocorn and related…read moreitems! All the stuff you don't really need but really want! Fantastic friendly and helpful staff. We loaded up on gourmet popcorn and seasonings, olive oils and vinegars, plus a serving tray, popcorn bucket, wine tote and god knows what else. Had to go back to the car to store it because it was too much to carry around. The upstairs section lets you taste maybe a hundred different types of oils and vinegars. They have serving suggestions and select recipes for the current season. They ahve things to serve them in (although the bottles themselves look very nice). Downstairs are the other kitchen items with special seasonings for everything you might want to serve, special things to serve them on, etc. etc. etc. We bought a popcorn bowl with a grate in the bottom for the uncooked kernels to fall through. We've used it several time in the first week home and it really works. The popcorn itself is delicious and the seasonings we bought for it make it even more so! I'm going to visit this store, and its sister store across the street, every time I'm in Vineyard Haven.
