A Sweet Slice of Old-Fashioned North Carolina in the Heart of Chair City…read more This store is an absolute must-visit when you're in Thomasville -- or anywhere in the Old North State. Old North State Candy & Gifts is located in historic downtown Thomasville, diagonally across the intersection of Salem Street and East Main Street from the famous Big Duncan Phyfe Chair. I saw it from the Big Chair, and I'm very glad I walked over and wandered in. This is a classic hometown candy store -- the kind that feels like it belongs on Main Street in a Norman Rockwell painting. It has that warm small-town energy that immediately makes you smile when you walk through the door. They specialize in hand-crafted candies, including old-fashioned hard candy drops made in small batches. The selection is impressive: fudge, brittles, taffies, gourmet popcorn, chocolates, and hundreds of nostalgic and specialty candies from around the world. I was especially excited to find pecan candy rolls that reminded me of the classics from Stuckey's and Buc-ees. The interior is bright, clean, and beautifully organized, making it easy to browse. It's a welcoming space for families, tourists, and anyone with a sweet tooth -- or an Americana history enthusiast like me. I visited in early January, and the store was still decorated for Christmas, which added to the charm. The woman working that day was incredibly friendly and helpful, and we had a delightful conversation. I believe she may have been the owner, which made the experience feel even more personal and authentic. I left with a bag containing several flavors of taffy, maple-covered popcorn, and pecan candy rolls -- and they were OUTSTANDING. I'm still working my way through them and enjoying every bite. If you appreciate small-town charm, local businesses, and old-fashioned candy shops, Old North State Candy & Gifts is a true gem in downtown Thomasville.

Next time I'm on that part of Battleground, I will stop in.

On a Sunday afternoon, the store was stocked properly though the Aisle of Awesomeness was untidy with shoppers leaving stuff all over the place. A queue for the register (no self checkout here) and I was on my way. [Review 1175 of 2026 - 4824 in North Carolina - 26354 overall]

Their selection is similar to most small Asian markets in the area. If you can find products manufactured this decade, there's a good selection of hard-to-find items. I question the cleanliness.

They recently started stocking cups of ice so you can have a cold drink on the go. We tried the Melon Ade with Lychee jelly and it was really refreshing and delicious. I would definitely recommend giving some of the drinks a try the next time you stop in. We also tried a sweet cheese bar found in the refrigerated section. They had several flavors and we tried the coconut almond and chocolate caramel. I did not like the chocolate caramel at all but the coconut almond was really good. We have a few other items we are going to try later so I'll have to post more photos once I give them a try.

Ive been shopping at World Market before the name change and since it was a mall staple that looked…read morelike a world bazaar full of treasures waiting to be found. As a teen, I used to wander through the packed aisles, window shopping things I'd like for my imaginary apartment. There were so many beautiful tchotchkes, decorative boxes and trays, pillows, rugs and furnishings to choose from. I recall one store had racks at least 12' tall filled with items. It's was my little slice of heaven. It was a part of my usual rotation: Kirkland's, Pier One, TJMaxx, Bed Bath & Beyond and World Market. Those were the days. Sadly those days are gone. Kirkland, Pier One and BB&B are gone forever (in my market area) & the nearest World Market to my home is a state away. Because of my experience with this store, I was expecting to see more eclectic, must buy pieces. I was looking for that "curated finds" feeling like it usws to be. What I got was "retail". Don't get me wrong, there are some nice big pieces, but the selection is minimal, like leftovers from a 3rd life overstock shipment. IDK. Have they lost their way, or is it the tariffs? I tend to lean towards the former as they have a Halloween section to sell costumes. COSTUMES! NEVA HAVE I EVA ONCE SAID OR HEARD THE STATEMENT ..."HMM, LET'S GO TO WORLD MARKET TO GET THE KIDS' COSTUMES!" I've heard Kmart, Target, Walmart and in the past 10 years Spirit of Halloween...but NEVER World Market! This is what happens when a business loses its direction and forgets its purpose (besides making money). If you are looking for candles and diffusers, or kitchware, this is your store. If you looking for tchotchkes, decorative boxes and such, try Hobby Lobby, Home Goods or At Home.
