We always stop here on the long, 3 hour drive back to Weddington from my daughter’s college apartment in Raleigh, NC First, they have free popcorn and coffee so that’s a no — brainer. Secondly, the wife and I do our fair share of baking and hit is one of the few places that carries«stone ground whole rye» flour and lots of seed varieties such as Poppy, sesame, caraway, etc. I might find such things at Whole Foods, but since I come by this way several times a year I just pick up here at Dunrovin’s. Don’t mind any attention to the 20-somethings that used words like«old» … its supposed to look old! Duh! We also buy a soda as refreshment for the rest of our car ride, real ginger and real root and birch beers. Can’t find those even in double-priced places such as Dean and Deluca. The people are all owners or relatives and friendly as can be. And as for the person below that said she ‘never tasted anything’ they will gladly let you sample the fudge or ice creams … just ask nicely!

Very charming Country Store. I enjoy coming here with friends/family visiting from out of state. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful — I walked in with a group of 8 people 5 minutes before close and they happily served us all ice cream. Highly recommend the Old Fashioned Peach or Toasted Coconut ice cream. Creamy and delicious.

A delightful«Country Store» that takes you back in time. With some classics like hoop cheese, birch beer and homemade jams. You must stop to just walk down memory lane and see this delightful local owned business.

Driving by, I thought, how charming, an Amish country store? Swinging a u turn, I dragged my husband into the store. I suppose I didn’t know what an Amish store entailed, it just sounded so… Quaint. There isn’t a lot of parking, so we ended up parking in the adjacent strip mall parking lot, walking up to the entrance, you can find a lot of garden decorations. Not sure if they are home made or not, they just seem a bit junky. The store itself is a bit confusing, you have tons of random items, but I suppose it is organized into sections. The back of the store is random items, hard to explain, it ranged from cowboy hats, stuffed animals, cards, t shirts, soaps, Asian oils, African Shea butter… They had old fashioned candy aisle… Some looked like they were produced in the olden days… They had a small section for Amish cheese and bacon. I’m not sure what makes it Amish, but the bacon boasted no nitrates. They also had a counter of various fudge and ice cream. Also aisles of sauces, honey, jam and such. Overall, I suppose a country store is just that, a mish mash of things. Did I buy anything…, naw… Maybe if they had samples of some of the bottles of jams and things, but I wouldn’t want to dump $ 8 – 10 on a jar of pickled garlic if I had no idea if it tasted any good. Plus, everything just seemed… old and crappy. Maybe I am a city girl after all…
