This was a great find in downtown Williamsburg. We went there because they were open a little later…read morethan most specialty shops (7 PM) and they featured some very interesting and artistic decorative pottery and ceramic pieces. However, what really stole the show were the treats. The Turkish Coffee was superb. It was authentically made via the sand method. I got the Ottoman which had milk added with touches of cinnamon and cardamom. It was a wonderfully flavorful concoction. We also got Turkish Delight and Baklava to take away. The Delight lived up to its name, especially the chocolate brownie variety. It was an exceedingly delicious treat. The baklava were also terrific as they were loaded with honey. To top things off, the proprietor was one of the nicest and most engaging people you'd ever want to meet. He is originally from Istanbul. I enjoyed my conversation with him since that is a city which I highlight amongst the ones I have been privileged to visit. It was a lovely visit to this delightful shop and we hope to return in the future when the chance arises.

Still some of the best baklava in Virginia as far as we're concerned. We've had friendly service…read moreevery time, and the coffee, tea, and baklava are rally top notch! Not a ton of seating, but they do have a couople small tables and chairs...

There are a lot of pieces to choose from, from figurines to dishware to ornaments. There are also plenty of colors to choose from. For first-timers, I wish there were more instructions given on adding layers of paint to make sure the color comes through. We were given that instruction as a heads up when we finished. Luckily, we did enough layers. After painting, the wait is usually a few days before they give you a call that your piece is ready for pick up. It's such a blast (and if you're with W&M, you get a discount)!

This very very small restaurant that looks interesting. It's very quaint. It's not family friendly…read more Service was great and the place was nicely decorated. I would say it's for more older adults wanting a very quiet lunch. Great place to have tea and a dessert. Selection of food...well..lunch menu is small. Not much to choose from so I would say it's really just fair. I was disappointed in the quiche and you don't get any choices. There's so many quiches to make these days. We only had one choice that was a big disappointment and it tasted just OK if it had a better menu or a little bit bigger menu that expanded to have some real choices we might be back but I don't think so that's why the three stars is for the fact that it's a lovely place to have a very nice cup of tea....

The cafe is…read morehoused within The Mole Hole boutique, which sells gifts, decor items, jewelry, purses, and ladies clothing. Today's review really is about The Gathering Place cafe, which is why we went to The Mole Hole. It's absolutely lovely. They have about 4 to 5 tables that could accommodate 4 people. Plus they had a cute table for two. The tables are elegantly decorated with linen floral napkins on pretty placemats. See photos. The food is light fare, but with ample portions. We started with iced teas (they also offer beers, wine, and champagne). For entrees, we ordered the spinach salad with salmon and pecans as well as the ham and spinach quiche with the southern pea salad. The pea salad contained peas, corn, pimento, and shredded cheddar cheese -- quite unique and very good. My husband can't stop raving about it. We really enjoyed our meals. All food is made in house. See photos. Service is prompt and friendly. You pay at the final checkout up front so you can pay for food and any shop purchases together. Bring cash for your tip, as their receipts don't include a line for a gratuity since they are primarily a shop. The restaurant is open Monday through Saturday for lunch until 3 p.m.

Naturally most of their cards are based on Williamsburg and W&M so it is a great place to pick something up when visiting to send back to family and friends. Only small gripe is that the cards are somewhat on the expensive side , but definitely very unique.

The selection is impressive - everything from a beginner friendly houseplants to more unique finds. It's easy to walk out with something special no matter what your experience level. What really makes the place shine is the staff, they're genuinely helpful and happy to answer questions or give practical care tips.

On top of that they offer classes and workshops so it makes it more than just the store it's a community space. Between the vibe, the variety, and the creativity it's hard to find anything not to love here.
