Review:
The Village Shops are a unique collection of stores with an old-world ambience. Designed to look like a European shopping district, the area combines decorative architecture, attractive landscaping, plenty of places to sit down, and a lovely fountain, all of which add to a serene environment. The stores are one of a kind, and focus on hand craftsmanship and good customer service.
Gatlinburg locals and visitors often start their day seated outdoors with donuts and coffee from The Donut Friar. The shops include several restaurants, a silversmith, a pottery, a fine art gallery, a toy shop, and one store that sells tea and spices. One whole store sells nothing but socks; there is a Celtic shop, and a candy store where visitors can watch taffy being pulled.
