What a fun spot! This place was recommended to me as a first time visitor to Traverse City. Located…read moreon the main street it has great curb appeal and an inviting look. As you enter you will encounter all things cherry as there are many different foods, drinks, and other items for purchase. It may feel a little overwhelming with the amount of things in the store! My family and I got to enjoy various samples of all things cherry, my favorite being the cherry gummy bears. We headed over to the wine counter in which we did two wine tastings for $1 each. The staff member who served us was knowledgeable and informative. Both of the wines I got were delicious! Overall we had a great experience and would encourage anyone to make this a stop while visiting the downtown Traverse City shops!

Especially if you need to pick up gifts for in-laws and the neighbor who gets your mail when your out of town. Not super nice gifts. But cute gifts or interesting food stuffs. Spoiler alert: The food stuffs you eventually buy will be made with cherries. Cherry wine, cherry jam, cherry salsa, cherry barbecue sauce, cherry candy... Some of it's great, some not so much. It's large. It's packed. It's touristy. It has oven mitts with cherry designs and aprons with clever sayings. You've been somewhere like this before. If it's your thing, they do it pretty well. If not, this store will not change your mind.

My situation was that I ordered fresh oysters, as I had a number of times before, but was instead given 100 frozen oysters that were already two weeks old (pickup date 5/23/26) without any prior communication or opportunity to decline the order. Btw I ordered 40 oysters. Somehow this was all my fault. When I questioned the situation, I was told I would no longer be served. The issue wasn't the product itself. It was the lack of communication, professionalism, and respect for a longtime customer. Based on my experience, I can no longer recommend this business and will be taking my business elsewhere. When someone shows you who they are, believe them the first time.
