There were only a sprinkling of items on sale (like a few T-shirts, sunglasses, and some miscellaneous items), so still a bit to check out. More than retail, it seems the place is now more of an artsy crafty place than a retail store. The entire place looked bigger...more space, since less retail. I thought they should have had some overhead music to fill the empty space, and give it more of a vibe. They still had this bar area, where they served wine (aside from the Jackass Cafe in the back). Still, I love the big, wide, open space that this place has to offer...and its Bohemian vibe. And did I mention their awesome artwork on their walls - both inside and out? I left the store thinking I should partake in their jewelry making on my next visit!

Cool, chill, off the beaten path place to hang out and relax…read more This is an old Gulf gas station that has been spot-on renovated into an oasis of serenity. This evening we noticed a food truck, so we stopped to pick up dinner, to go. We had not planned on staying, but tonight's food truck was so popular that we stayed longer than we expected to. Well, well, surprise, surprise, Belvedere Station serves wine and beer! Quite welcomed on a beautiful holiday weekend evening while waiting for takeout. So while waiting we walked inside where the gas station waiting room was comfortably air conditioned and stocked with the beer and wine and cute home decor/gifts. The gas station service bays had even more adorable unusual decor/gifts and also more casual seating for gathering with friends. But wait! Even more areas out back to congregate with your group of friends. Get aways, I say. I believe I noticed a group that might be regulars. So, if you have a group of friends and you like to get together, intimately, where it is not too loud, I recommend Belvedere Station. They did have cool recorded music in the background, but I thought live background music would be appreciated. I spoke with the very friendly, helpful hostess and she informed me that occasionally a person performs live guitar background music. This place is way too cool to just drive by!

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.

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!

Cotton Mill Exchange is often thought of as the gift shop located within the South Carolina State…read moreMuseum. However, it's really more than that. 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.
