A wide variety of items by a seemingly great number of vendors. After a weekend of hopping in & out of small shops, finding this actual mall was certainly a relief. There certainly seemed to be something for everyone. I found small, inexpensive, decorative glassware, large, elaborate pieces, vintage toys, a variety of Pyrex and a plethora of other collectibles. If you’re in Roanoke or Salem, this mall is a must.

"Distinctive Beers, Crafted with Care in the Heart of the Blue Ridge." We love our home in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia, and we love the Blue Ridge Parkway, a 469 mile scenic journey of mountainous wonder that showcases the natural beauty and unique heritage of our region. Beautiful vistas, distinctive music, oddball characters and fantastical folklore are just a few of the things that make our home a special place. It’s enough to make a person mighty thirsty. Since opening in 2012 on Kessler Mill Road in tiny Salem, Virginia, Parkway Brewing Company has not only created some of the state’s tastiest brews, but we’ve created a place that has brought together a community of like-minded, free-spirited beer lovers with a penchant for the great outdoors.

Needed an ice cold draft beer after hiking all day. Luckily, this was close by and we had a couple beers with the lunch we brought. Great atmosphere and beer.

I took my kids and their friends to launching pad recently. It was a super fun and energetic experience. They had an especially Fun time this trip, because of a staff member Brendan. He was exceptionally hands-on and made this visit our best ever! We want to go back again when he’s there.
