I don't do a whole lot of card buying anymore, especially since we now have all this wonderful…read moretechnology, but I still pop in this store almost every time I'm at the OP Mall. They have so many cute little items. It's a great place if you're shopping for a gift for that someone who has everything. And of course every Christmas I have to come here to purchase my official Hallmark ornament with the year on it. I also can never stop at just that one ornament, I always purchase several others too. Hallmark, in my opinion, has the cutest ornaments you'll find anywhere! Yes, they are kinda costly, but you're buying memories that are going to literally last a lifetime and will more than likely be passed down for generations to come. So, it just makes more sense to spend a few extra bucks on an ornament that you know is going to last (and is cuter too)! Love the employees here. They are so friendly and helpful. I am always welcomed almost immediately as soon as I enter the store. They know where everything is located (even all the ornaments... and there are a ton of them) and they are more than happy to help you locate what you're looking for! Even when you are checking out they always ask, "Did you find everything you were looking for?" I just like that added touch there at the end. The store (even when it's crazy busy at Christmastime) is always kept neat and orderly. I'm really not sure how they do it since during that busy time of year there are so many people in and out, and there are kids picking up ornaments and placing them here, there and yonder. But they do a fabulous job. They also carry a great line of the Precious Moments figurines if you happen to be a collector.

She was the only one working and was still very attentive to everyone in the store. The selection of pens, gifts, scrapbooking materials, and stationary is amazing! They have a bunch of stuff that I was only able to get in Japan also. The value is also great, prices aren't inflated and being able to get your first ink fill for free is amazing. We are def going back and we'll be participating in their first Friday events and extra Sat events! Oh and while we were there we made a friend with another customer who also loves the store! We are customers for life, def worth the drive from Jax beach.

This Mercantile store has everything that you can think of and and things that you did not even think that you needed, but you wanted. It brings out my creativity. At every nook and cranny, there is something for everyone they have beautiful travel journals, they have ribbons. They have ribbons, buttons, stamps, glues, adhesive, earrings,books. Do yourself a favor and stop in and let your eyes feast on all the goodies. Kim also told me that they will be having some creative classes. Stop by their webpage or the store. You would definitely find something a value for yourself there.

Our Red Hat chapter decided to try the High Tea for our October 2025 meeting. There were twelve of…read moreus and we were seated at lovely decorated tables. Miss Pat chooses the individual table settings from her vast collection and every place was beautiful. The menu is "set" but they were so nice and accommodated my onion allergy, sometimes by making me a separate dish! This was wonderful! We ate everything that was served with great enjoyment! Miss Pat explained everything as the courses were served--a bit of history and descriptions. I don't think a crumb was left! Then, of course, we took advantage of the many gifts in the shop. Most of us found at least one item to purchase, either for ourselves or for someone special. You cannot go wrong!!!I also purchased my favorite Muffaletta mix because it has no onions in it! Delicious on any type of meat sandwich, or spread on pizza. Thank you to Miss Pat!! (Better hurry and go, though, because this will be her last winter holidays with the shop--she's retiring!!)

I've always wanted to go to a tearoom and on my birthday this year, decided to try this place out…read more My husband and two other friends joined us and we did not know what to expect walking in. Parking lot is a bit rough as it's not paved but it's fine, there's room for parking. Upon walking in, we were surprised and delighted on how cute this tea room was! There were a lot of trinkets, adorned ornaments, teas, gifts, etc. around the store. We scheduled for noon on a Tuesday and only waited about 5 minutes until we were whisked away to our table. The table set up itself was so delicate, beautiful, and I felt that I should be dressed up like I was going to the Kentucky derby haha. The tea room was clean, bright, and I loved how the area is a little private. We sat down and Ms. Pat helped us right away! Ms. Pat was so pleasant, sweet, and explained all the courses and what we're having. We had the following: Pot of tea: I believe it was an English black tea with some milk and raw brown sugar. You know a tearoom is legit when they have sugar cubes and and cream in a fancy container. I was so wowed the delicate set up of the table. I truly felt like I was having afternoon tea with a member of the royal family. I enjoyed this tea's flavor and Ms. Pat came around and refilled our teacups on a timely basis. I added some cream and two sugar cubes and it was delightful. The tearoom experience comes with 6 courses *with x/10 ratings: 1st Course--Strawberry cold soup, fresh fruit, and jalapeno honey. Ms. Pat told us to pour the jalapeno honey on the fresh fruit for an explosion of flavor. She said the jalapeno honey works really well with the fresh fruit. She was not kidding! That combination might seem weird but it worked perfectly with the acidity of the fruit mixed with the sweetness/spiciness from the jalapeno and honey. The strawberry cold soup was also very fruity, fresh, and light. It reminded me of eating freshly pureed strawberries with yogurt! The fruits ((berries and pineapple) were also fresh and you could tell in each bite. We also had some pita dippers with some brie/jam! The brie combined with the jelly on top of the pita chip, was one of the best bites ever! 9/10 for sure! 2nd Course - Veggie tray. It consisted of fresh heirloom tomatoes, cucumbers, celery, and carrots with a side of homemaker buttermilk ranch. the veggies were fresh as well and I felt each snap or crunch every time I took a bite of a veggie. The ranch was good too! It went so well with the veggies. . 7/10 3rd Course - Ms. Pat likes to call this course a spinoff on "Fish and Chips". We had homemade kettle chips to go along with a curried fish dip and peach salsa. The chips were crunchy, crispy, and flavorful and the dip and salsa went extremely well the chips. No complaints here! The real show as the fish dip and we found ourselves wanting more of it. Then came the deviled eggs. They were so creamy, flavorful, and soft. I wanted to take the whole tray with me!! I love eggs and here, they know how to do their deviled eggs! I would come back just for the eggs haha 8.5/10 4th Course - Fancy Assortment of Tea Sandwiches: Lettuce sandwich with pickled veggies, cucumber sandwiches, pumpkin-butter & sliced apple on pecan-dipped cinnamon-raisin bread, and some chicken salad cups. The sandwiches blew my mind away! The sandwiches were small but packed a huge flavor! I love how the crusts were cut off too! 8.5/10 5th Course - Scones, the scones are warm, fresh, and came with a cream. It was so good!!! The scone melted in my mouth! it was probably one of the softest and fluffiest scones I've ever had. When you combined the cream on top oft he scone, it elevated the fruits in the scones some more. The scone was blueberry one I believe. 8/10 6th Course - Then came the dessert tarts, dark chocolate covered strawberries, nuts, and some type of petit four dessert. We were pretty full by then (can you believe it haha?) but agreed that the desserts were divine. The dark chocolate covered strawberry was so fresh and I love that they used dark chocolate so it wasn't too sweet. Chocolate and fruit always work so well together! 8.5/10 Overall, I would come here again probably only for a special occasion or here and there. It's a little pricier at $44 a person (but so worth the experience!) and keep in mind that they do charge an extra $20 if you add a birthday cake for the occasion. The cake was so beautiful and I loved that Ms. Pat even celebrated with us! Overall, such a wonderful and pleasant experience with Ms. Pat and we hope to come back again!!!

While Yum is a destination spot for baked goods and custom cakes, they also have a market that features a variety of treasures made by local vendors. Homemade bath and kitchen products are abundant, as well as jams and jellies, funny signage, clothing, and so much more. If you're in need of a creative and unique gift for any occasion, then Yum is the place to check out. Whether I've needed goodies for my days off or stocking up for a TV marathon night (Stranger Things 4 in one shot), YUM has always had me covered. I could sit here and tell you all of my favorite desserts, but then this review would turn into a novel. I will say that I leave there with at least two scrumptious cupcakes and several bars. Their 5 (or is it 6?) layer bar is outstanding and reminds me of the ones my Mom used to make for the holidays. It's like the one from the Eagle Condensed Milk can recipe, but so much better. If you see these in the dessert case, GET IT....or get 5, like me. They have a Facebook page, where they keep you up to date on upcoming sales and events, as they have loads of different products coming in from day to day. I love that everything is made from scratch and that they're supporting our thriving local community of artists. Yum a Southern Market is well worth the trip, whether you're in the neighborhood or from out of town. A big thank you to the owners and the staff for bringing us such a special place! One important thing to mention is that they are closed on Sundays and Mondays! Till next time, my fellow Yeeps, SUPPORT your local eats and businesses, and as always...SYOY!

Nowadays, you can find all kinds of stuff that have to do with The Walking Dead, Breaking Bad, and The Hunger Games.
