Love this place. Always neat stuff. I always seem to buy something from here, even if it is just candy.

Great general store. Lots of unique gifts and a large candy and chocolate section. We try and visit with the kids a few times a year as a special treat or if we are looking for a unique gift.

There is a reason why you are seeing over and over why this store is getting 5 star reviews, because it’s THATAMAZING! This place has been around for as long as I can remember. I loved going there as a child checking out the penny candies they had, root-beer barrels, red licorice pipes, and all those other little odds and ends. Every Christmas we knew our stockings would be filled with so many cute and unique gifts from this store. Paddle balls, Chinese finger cuffs/traps, little tins with great lip balm, ya silly fun stuff like that. While it’s not often I get a chance to get back home, when I do I make sure to visit this little store. Brings back so many wonderful memories and every time I walk through those doors, I feel like a kid again. This trip purchases were a pair of boxers with lobsters on them, a cast iron lobster bottle opener and then some odds and end candies. Prices are fair but to me this store is priceless!

Cute little store with tons and tons of knickknacks. There’s Yankee candle with the works; candles, wax tarts and warmers, votives and so on. There’s tons of kids craft books, painted ponies, stationary, Burt’s bees, jewelry, seasonal items, home décor, jarred penny candies and neat kids toys. As for the candy I really liked the dark chocolate covered orange Peel candy. But what made me jump up like a little kid was the jelly nougats. I love those. I got my kids some geodes and some Mexican jumping beans. Fun place to shop!

Yep, 5 stars. Count ‘em. 5. For a little general store. In little old Richmond, Rhode Island. Worth a stop? Hell yeah. Worth a return visit? You betcha. * Fantastic Selection of Candy(penny candy in over 100 glass jars) * Yankee Candle(a pretty big display) * Burt’s Bees(I love this stuff for winter lip protection) * Crabtree & Evelyn(my wife likes this) * Painted Ponies(I have no idea what the hell this is but they have it) * Faire Glenn(I don’t know anything about this stuff either) * Bean Pod Candles(or this or why they are popular) This place is like the Jelly Mill in Manchester, Vermont or Vermont Country Store in Rockingham, Vermont only a bit smaller than those two. Lots of fun things in a small space but it does not seem overcrowded or cluttered. The upstairs is currently decked out with Christmas items including the glass Christmas Pickle(of questionable legend and origin). The stock changes seasonally and right now the first floor features a fair amount of Halloween-related items. Fun. Fun. Fun. A very nice and helpful staff. Decent prices. Great selection.

Definitely worth a stop. As the first reviewer mentioned, they have an amazing candy counter. My favorite candy is the chocolate-dipped pretzels, although they have everything a child or adult could want in the way of candy from wax bottles to candied ginger. This store also has a great selection of jewelry, gifts, clothing and especially bath and beauty products, including Crabtree & Evelyn and Burt’s Bees. They have a Yankee Candle section(with some other soy candles too) in the back. Upstairs you can find some great ornaments, Christmas and baby stuff. I’ve been going here for many years, and each time I go there is something new and wonderful. The owners are wonderful people and one of them is usually there when you stop by. Great atmosphere.

Hack and Livery is a landmark in this area. It’s been around since 1888! First as a real Hack and Livery, then as a hotel, before it’s current state as a gift store/candy counter. The candy counter! This is a unique shop has within the most amazing old-fashioned candy counter which in itself, makes the trip worthwhile. They’ve got hard candies, swizzle sticks, rock candy, licorice, as well as the more popular stuff. I spent much of my formative years just up the road a bit, which made it easy to spend my babysitting money whenever I could! It’s amazing I never had a cavity. So in order to give a honest, adult oriented view, I had to wait until I visited as a real grown-up because I honestly couldn’t remember anything else they sold, since the candy was all I ever cared about(I swear! I have a mortgage and everything!). To my surprise, they have quite a nice assortment of gifts, home décor items, candles, toys… of course lots and lots of country-esque flavored items, it is after all, Hope Valley. Since it was Christmas, they had an amazing assortment of holiday decorations, lights, ornaments, candles, you name it! You can find it right on Rte 3, about halfway between exits 2 and 3 making it an easy on and off 95 if you’re passing through! Don’t forget… CANDY!!!
