One of our favorite highlights was The Cloak and Wand, an enchanting shop for fantasy enthusiasts. From wands and cloaks to magical supplies and potions, it's a delightful escape into the world of wizards and witches. We couldn’t resist trying their Liquid Gold, a delicious non-dairy drink that the staff said was one of their best sellers.

We also enjoyed exploring Sticky Situations/Extra Virgin, where honey and olive oil reign supreme. With free samples available and helpful signs suggesting perfect dish pairings, it’s easy to find flavors to enhance your favorite meals.

Alice's Little Haunted Bookshop was another hidden gem. Quaint, cute, and filled with an intriguing collection of books, this shop is ideal for lovers of spooky stories and mysteries.

To top it all off, the Beef Jerky Experience offered an incredible variety of jerky flavors, including exotic meats that cater to more adventurous palates (none from endangered species, of course). It’s a great spot to grab a savory snack on the go.

With a 4.6-star rating on Google Maps from over 4,200 reviews, Olde Mistick Village remains a beloved stop for visitors to Mystic.
