Yes, cute, clever and unique gifts and have shopped here for years as Asheville resident BUT if an…read moreolder woman with a loud, sugary southern accent is working behind the counter, turn around and leave. Come back when one of the young women owners are there. We went for holiday gift shopping, knowing we'd be spending a chunk of money and getting something recipients appreciated but ended up putting everything down and leaving after enduring this woman's inane LOUD chattering to every person who walked in the store. Not only was her stupid chatter annoying, she argued with us about never having carried an item we know we purchased there! We lived in the Deep South for nearly 30 years and never experienced an encounter that felt like such an inauthentic put-on of 'southern charm.' Sorry Duncan &York. We love the store but this year there won't be anything from your store under our Christmas tree.

Make sure to check out the sticker table at the register!!

I found it at C.W. Moose. I loved the shop, the owner, the service, even the price! I really loved it so much that ordered some more on line.

The space is open and welcoming. They have a variety of expensive and affordable, big and small. There is a lot of art- hanging and out on shelves. They also have pottery and a ton of pretty handmade jewelry. You can find some snacks and soaps here as well as the occasional card and or print. They also have some nice leather bags. Great for some street browsing. Would be easy to leave with something unique and special.

We really liked the bottom floor, with all the books and cards for purchase, and the coffee bar, where my wife and I ordered tea and iced coffee.

Very chill vibes to enjoy and buy a book, a toy, or a knickknack. Sassafras is one of a few stores located either on Sutton or Cherry, where you can check out as you walk around town.
