Whenever I'm in Block Island I pop in here to pick up a last minute piece. But don't bother going here if you want Block Island gear like hats, tees, sweatshirts, etc. They don't carry that kind of stuff.

I go to Block Island all the time and always make the time to go into B & C.

If you ever find something you love that they are out of in your size, just ask Kelly or one of the other girls - they are all lovely and very helpful.

The woman who works there is the sweetest person ever. My friend bought a sweatshirt from a shop…read moredown the road, but saw a better one in this store. She went back to the store she bought the first sweatshirt, but they wouldn't let her return it. She was super sad, and when she came back to Beachcomber, the kind woman overheard the story and gave her the new sweatshirt for free. She is super kind and knows her products, marking them at a super duper reasonable price and choosing to sell things from companies (eg pura vita) that provide jobs to people in poverty in other countries. Everyone should stop by this store, and remember to spread the kindness that she showed my friend in your day-to-day life

The pricing varies which was great for all shoppers. It wasn't all super expensive. The sold so many different items.

Overall this is such a cute tiny store that packs a good about in it.

This is one of the only places In Rhode Island that sells Lilly Pulitzer - and probably the only…read moreplace on Block Island that's sells Lilly Pulitzer- my FAVORITE brand!! They had a great variety of Lilly stuff- everything from shorts, rompers, shift dresses, dresses, Loro Dresses, skirts, skirts, tank top's Essie tops, and a few sale items as well! They actually had a better selection the signature Lilly Store in Newport, RI! This place used to be open until 3-4 am- but since Covid they close at 8pm- which is still AMAZING- considering the signature Lilly stores close at 5/6pm! I actually got my first Lilly piece HERE 4 years ago! The woman behind the desk was really helpful with sizing and friendly and funny ! She was awesome and this place lets you TRY ON Lilly which a lot of stores don't let you in fitting rooms yet! So that was AWESOME- considering the sizing is all across the board! They had a few other brands but it was mostly Lilly! They had some cute jewelry, wristlets, and little "gazadellas" as well! This store is also really neat and well decorated with sanitizer waiting for you at the door. My only gripe is NO A/C & I was in a full SWEAT- When trying on multiple outfits- other than that it is WITHOUT A DOUBT- my favorite clothing store on Block Island!!

How in the world did the person ringing him up not notice this..and the many pulled strings hanging off it. My guess is they did and choose to ignore it being he was a summer tourist. I decided to give them the benefit of the doubt and gave the place a call. A very heavily accented young lady told me that her boss's would call me back in about 30 minutes. After 5 hours, I called again, and this time I did get a call back with the promise of a replacement or refund next day when the owner was in the shop. So my review is based on their customer service and the quality of an item they carry. 4 for customer service 1 for quality of item

Now,…read morewhile they still play featured films, local artisans use the area surrounding the interior of the building to humbly showcase their talented handiwork on simple wooden shelves. Inventory varies and includes anything from vintage clothing, framed pictures featuring sea glass and driftwood to gluten free cookies. The prices are extremely reasonable, and it feels good to support the local community. The manager and her young daughter greeted my sister and I with big smiles, making us feel instantly at ease. Upon cashing out, the manager shared a bit about the local artist who made the cool t-shirt I bought. I got stopped by many people asking where I had found the shirt since it was such a unique design. This market is such a cool place. It's easy to overlook and assume it's only a movie theater so if you're looking to escape the crowds and take your time, this is the place to go. Top notch service to boot! Shop local!
