Such a lovely place! I wish I could describe the delicious smells we smelt when we walked in the door, but I wouldn't do it justice! You will have to take a visit for yourself. I believe we worked with the owner, she was such a kind and pleasant person. Truly took her time with us, helped educate us on the best coffees, vinegars, salts, peppers, and oils to buy. Also was able to try anything we wanted to sample. The toasted coconut was divine!! Felt completely safe during these covid times, she had a mask on, it was required for us to wear them, and when sampling she provided it for us. Cannot wait to go back!

I was in Cape Charles for a weekend of rest. I was told about this shop by the innkeepers who hosted my stay. They told me and another person about the shop and yup go see John and Honey. So, off we went. John had such an amazing amount of knowledge about wines and the components! He helped me find a wonderful red wine and where I could buy it at home. Honey was such a lovely lady! She made an impromptu patio for us and a another couple tho sit outside and enjoy our wine. They made us feel so welcome and like we we're old friends coming to visit. I will definitely be returning to Cape Charles and The Gull Hummock! My trip would not have been as fun without coming to this shop! A must to visit!

My family of five were staying in the area over Memorial Day weekend. Went into Cale Charles on Saturday. I wanted to go to this store after seeing it on trip advisor. Really cute store with a variety of items. It was fun to look around. My teen daughters also enjoyed it.

We've been to Cape Charles several times now and love this beach with young children because of the very gentle waves, plentiful soft sand, and very shallow waters for even the youngest toddlers to play in.

My family and I spent a lovely Friday evening here this past weekend. We saw some lovely pieces of art, talked to some of the artists on hand, listened delightedly to the guitar and fiddle duo, and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves sampling the local scene. They reprise this every Friday night. Check it out!

My two teenage children are both vegan and we stumbled upon CC Brewing Company because they serve the BEYOND BURGER” which is vegan. The whole experience was great. The staff was so friendly and helpful. The beer ( not normally a beer drinker) was great. The food was fabulous ! The Beyond Burger was great. The fries were the absolute best. The soft pretzel great with beer. We sat outside ( although there was inside seating). Highly recommend if your traveling through you won’t be disappointed.
