I cannot say enough great things about this place. Great souvenirs, funny souvenirs, GREAT fudge, great gifts, great lunch spot, and the list goes on. But what really makes it stand out are the amazing people who run the place.

This was the first stop on our roadtrip to Vermont. Nice place to get some free samples of pretzels, dips, and fudge. If you are looking for souvenirs, they’ve got everything you can imagine. If you are not into buying any touristy stuff, might as well just move along, you’re not missing much.

Definitely worth a stop. It’s a nice little general store with a little bit of everything, ranging from necessities, to souvenirs, to gift items, to a food counter, to cheese and fudge. There is a little something for everyone. We didn’t eat anything here during our visit, but the food coming out of the kitchen looked and smelled great. They are generous with fudge and cheese samples, with a good portion of the latter being from New England. I’d like to go back when I have more time to poke around.

I like the Weston Village Store. It’s always worth stopping both here and the Vermont Country Store across the street when I’m driving into the state. Some of the prices are better than the store across the street, which is one reason to stop in, but the Weston Village Store really has its own charm with fun knick-knacks, retro-themed gifts, scented soaps and candles, and of course, Vermont maple candies, cheese, fudge, and other goodies. The floors and stairs are very creeky, which adds to the character of the place. There are a few samples in one part of the store, but it’s in a small area, and right next to a register, so it’s tough to get through sometimes.(On my last stop in, I skipped the samples because the wait was backed up.) The staff is very friendly and helpful, and they’re actually visible throughout the store. There’s a snack bar to grab a hot dog or some chili if you’re hungry, and lots of fun sodas to the side of it. When I stopped in last weekend, I picked up some candy, soda, and a pickle, and left pretty happy. Note: There’s a bathroom downstairs, but it’s in the cellar, so you have to go through some storage, and you’ll hear everyone walking around upstairs.

Weston Village Store is the best country store in the vicinity, in my opinion. I visited a few other touristy style country stores while visiting Vermont and I felt that Weston was the most welcoming, had the best prices, and had a nice assortment of items from postcards and t-shirts to hand crafted items to fun food items like Vermont cheese, fudge, and locally made products like salad dressings and marinades(and of course maple syrup). I bought several souvenir items when I stopped at this store. I found prices to be very reasonable and we found a few items that we had not seen in the other shops in the area. The store is also fun to walk around in and browse. It definitely has an old country store motif and vibe. It feels like not much has changed inside or out in quite some time, which makes the store quaint and cozy. It is definitely worth a visit, especially for the prices. Service was friendly. The man behind the counter seemed pleased when we told him that the Weston store was the favorite one that we visited. It was nice that he seemed genuinely appreciative of our feedback. Very pleasant experience overall.

The quintessential rural New England general store. How I love it! The eclectic mixture of shlocky postcards, moose-themed coffee mugs, old biscuit tins and antique clocks. Banality and little treasures all jumbled together and presided over by a gruff but warm old Vermont couple. When you stop in, which you should, make sure you buy some fudge. Contrary to popular belief, you are never too old for fudge, at least I’m not. The dark chocolate fudge was exceptional. Other local treats like the delicious cheddar cheese and maple sugar candy also cry out to be purchased. And bring back a sample case of the local Long Trail ale to your beer snob friends in the city!
