Laurel River Store

Great service with a lot of great art work. From jewelry to pottery. The one thing you will notice is that the locals who come in will give you great suggestions on where to go and what art you should purchase. You may find yourself inside talking with various people for hours. It was fun.

This is the type of store that almost feels like you’ve walked into a dream. You can really tell how much love the owners have put into the store, between the highly curated goodies inside and the beautiful flowers and decorations outside during the summer. All the wares were beautiful, and I could have easily spent more money than I did - the quality is just that good. I’ve already used up the simple syrups I bought, and I get a ton of compliments for the lovely botanical/nature inspired T-shirt I bought, too. Can’t wait to revisit the next time I’m in the Hot Springs area.

Laurel’s River Shop was one of our FAVORITE places we visited in the Hot Springs and Asheville area. We loved chatting with the owner and hearing all her connections/information about the beautifully crafted items. We picked up gorgeous cards, pottery, honey, jams, soaps…. Clearly we couldn’t resist. Still drooling over the Cinnamon roll too!

The owner, Jamima, is very friendly but not a pushover. She can and will have a conversation with you on almost any subject while being respectful but tell you her position as well.
Her coffees are made to order and she will customize them for you. She has all the machines needed to make gourmet coffee, latte, machiato, cappuccinos and espresso.
Her store has home made candies, jelly and she recently added pet rocks, each with a custom 1 of a kind paint job.

Stopped in here on the way back from Hot Springs. Love the items and the unique gifts. Definitely stop in when you have a chance.

I always stop here when visiting Hot Springs because the shop is the cutest little coffee shop with local art and trinkets. A variety of of coffees, smoothies and homemade snacks. Atmosphere outside the shop is a great entrance to hot springs. Check this place out!

This place is so cute! It has a lot of goods for sale. I got a cortado & it was perfect! The barista was so nice. I didn’t have a mask with me walking in but she was happy to give me one

Really cute shop. Nice selection of coffee and teas. As well as edibles. Lots of interesting knick knacks to look at & buy. Right near the trailhead. Picnic tables outside. Porto John too. Beware of snakes hanging around the water!

Great little shop to get out of mountain rain storm. Very friendly, big selection of coffee and snowcones!!! Lovely little artist shop. Spent quite awhile just looking around all the little things.

This is a wonderful, eclectic spot! They seem to specialize in quality, local food, drinks, and handmade goods. The coffee is locally roasted and the pastries + baked goods seem homemade as well. There's a nice mix of quality treasures & convenience items.. even some paddling gear & essential accessories in the corner. (see hours in pictures)
