Linville River Mercantile

You have to stop in and try some fresh desserts. Everything is home made and fresh. Also amazing! And the couple who room the shop safe as welcoming as can be.

This place was amazing the owners were very friendly. I had a pineapple upside down cake it was the best I've ever had. I bought a jar of strawberry rhubarb jelly that was excellent as well. They had a lot of different desserts on the shelves all homemade. Will stop again when in the area.

My girlfriend and I are on vacation and decided to stop by this cute little shop. The owners are absolutely amazing people, so kind and inviting and pleasant to be around. They made us feel so welcomed and at home. The food is incredible, my girlfriend had a slice of the southern coconut pie and I had chocolate ice cream. All of their desserts are homemade and delicious. I plan on stopping by again before we leave!

Great little shop, and great homemade desserts and apple cider.

We have been wanting to stop there for some time, and finally did today. It is a very cute store. A number of memorabilia and trinkets for sale inside. The Highlight are the desserts. My wife had the peach cobbler with ice cream. The kids and I had ice cream. I'll say the ice cream was delicious and creamy. The peach cobbler homemade and delicious. Apparently, all the desserts are homemade and pretty much sell out every day. The staff were very friendly. It was great having outside seating areas, and they brought your treats to you. Definitely worth a stop and a snack.

The best ice cream around! They also have amazing homemade deserts and an assortment of merchandise. The storefront is right on a curve and comes up quickly. If you don't keep an eye out you'll miss it but definitely worth a visit!

Freshly make pies & cobblers, LR Mercantile is a regular stop for us after hiking Linville Falls, Elk River, etc. Peach Cobbler a la mode is my go-to, but other pies I've tried are excellent.

A wonderfully hidden Gem!!! Great customer service, amazing home made pies !! definitely a five star bakery. If you want to take a trip back in time this is the place to stop by and slow the hand of time. Enjoying a home welcoming ambience. Don't forget to purchase a homemade jar of Jam! I recommend buying two of everything.. you won't regret it !! 🥧 🍨 🍮 🍦

Stopped by Sunday afternoon, Aug 15 and it was definitely open...and definitely worth the stop. We got a piece of cake with whipped cream icing, delicious, and a blondie that was as good as anything I've ever tasted. We will stop by again.

We stopped in on our way to Peddlin Pig. I’ve drove past a lot and always wanted to stop but never have. Today my girlfriend and I stopped in to get some apple cider. We loved the atmosphere even before we walked in. We were greeted and the owner was extremely nice and helpful. We left with our warm apple cider, blueberry cheesecake, and key lime pie. Our cider was delicious and made us want cups that refill themselves endlessly. We ate our dessert after we had Our dinner and it was absolutely scrumptious. I wish I had got the mans name, but if you see this thank you so much and we will see you again soon. Don’t forget to try the brisket and western sauce at Peddlin Pig. I can’t wait to try that good looking peanut butter pie.
