To be honest I'm not sure what this place even is? I've always thought it looked nice and assumed…read moreit had plants for sale but upon visiting today it was even more confusing. I mean is this a bar, do they sell local goods, is it just a local social club, and do they even sell plants? It was such a strange experience but most of the older group that was hanging out seemed to be fine with it. Maybe it's just my social class doesn't line up with this level of society but it was just weird. There was no sense of how to move through the space. There were random chairs everywhere and I wasn't sure what was really going on as there was a jam band playing, food on a table right next to cooler of beer sitting open in the middle of what I assumed was their retail space. Very difficult to navigate and the lady could have cared less when we bought one carton of eggs. I felt like we had accidentally walked into someone's retirement party at a venue. Anyway we won't be back frankly because I have no reason too. I think it's more a hangout spot for the upper class of the area. I gave it two stars because it does look nice but if it's just a local bar then stop with the garden/goods half a shelf space and just be that.

Love Imperial Mercantile! Yes it not the cheapest store, but it's because of the quality of the…read moregoods and the care of the staff invested in all of their products. I've always had a great experience at the KM location. Staff take their time to get to know you and suggest products that fit your needs. My son had a long conversation with one employee about his military service and it was genuine. I appreciate their investment in the customers and this community. You can find high end USA cook wear, premium loose tea, local branded home decor, great gift ideas, Benchmade knives, some clothing, kids toys, it really has something for everyone. It may seem like it's a woman's store, but I guarantee your man will find something cool. You can even order hot tea or get an espresso drink there! Basically, it's awesome and something I would expect to find in a big city. But I'm proud to brag that it's in Kings Mountain.

Come early or come late is my recommendation. I love their chicken salad croissant sandwich. Simple. Tasty. Buttery. Divine. Mmmmm! The chicken pot pie is also something one should experience, too. As for tea . . . I'm not their target audience. I don't even like tea, lol. However, there is SO MUCH MORE than tea going on here. It is a wonderful "tip o' the hat" kinda place for Monroe. Looking for a great dining experience in an iconic house in the historic district? Has my "Give 'em a Whirl" meter sipping tea and eating scones with its pinky raised. Support local. Go here.

Stopped back in during the week for a quick lunch with my mom and sister. The house was lovely as…read moreusually and the staff nice as ever. We opted for a mix of hot and ice teas. I highly recommend the strawberry tea...taste like summer. We started with the cheese ball sampler. Not my fav as the flavors were not there. It came with 3 mini cheese balls; pimento, goat cheese and a garden veg with pineapple (IKR). Again, great presentation but none of the cheese balls had much flavor to match the name. For entrees we opted for the chicken salad sandwich, the chicken pot pie and the country chicken casserole. My sister loved the chicken salad, my mom just ate most of the filling of the pot pie, I was not a fan of the casserole (one note, no veggies and everything was mushy except the "herb" bread crumbs on top). Next time I will stick to tea and the lovely finger sandwiches and room for the lovely desserts from the bake shop.

This was such a great gift shop! They had so many cool South Carolina related items that I wish…read morethat it was its own standalone store. I loved their selection of South Carolina hats, artworks, household items, clothing, etc. Also, as a philatelist, (one who loves mail) this is one of the few places in Columbia to buy postcards (and they're affordable as well!) They also had a lot of cool Carolina and Clemson merchandise, as well as items that highlight the history of the state of South Carolina. All-in-all, it was a great store, and my only complaint is that it's not its own standalone location! Would highly recommend!

It doesn't just handle museum related items and souvenirs. Its inventory is related to everything of the entire State of South Carolina. As they state, they've "...explored every corner of the state to bring you the best of South Carolina," and from what I've seen they have done that and then some. It's a really big store and has most everything one can think of that would be South Carolina related and most of the goods are of superior quality, not just cheap Chinese built trinkets. But the best part is the selection. They have everything from jewelry to clothing to home decorator items and the staff is more than willing to assist. It's really one of the better shops I've seen within or a part of any public museum.

When I told them my credit card still shows pending charge for the canceled item 6 days after the order was canceled, she told me I should call my bank for this issue. Based on this experience, I'll never order from World Market again. They try to save money by putting CSRs in Panama, but the quality of their service damages their business.

They have ever kind you can think of. Seriously, chocolate to pumpkin pies, lemon, strawberry, almond joy, butter pecan...every flavor and it's all homemade. So happy to meet the staff and hear about the start of a great family business. Oh and do not sleep on the goodies in the attached stores. So many cute Christmas items and gifts.
