If you visited the shop from around 4:20pm onwards today, we apologise that we were closed. Unfortunately, we had to deal with a medical emergency in-store.
We’re sorry for any inconvenience caused and appreciate your understanding during what was a difficult situation.
We would also like to extend a sincere thank you to the two gentlemen who were in the store at the time of the incident, your help and support were greatly appreciated.

We hear it a lot these days…

“That’s cheaper online.”
“I got that off Amazon because I didn’t think you’d have it.”

But we also hear this:

“I’m so grateful your shop is here.”
“You’ve saved me today by having this in stock!”

The truth is, internet shopping is slowly killing the high street. Yes, it’s convenient. Yes, you don’t even have to leave the sofa.

But if we stop using our local shops, we will lose them.

Independent businesses can only stay open if the community supports them.

So next time you need something the same day, or need a bit of help or advice, remember your local high street first.

Use it… or lose it.

Did you guess our latest round of Plymouth I-Spy?
Well done to many of you for playing along and knowing that this weeks I-Spy is one of the fabulous Beryl Cook Sculptures. This one is a cheerful shopper from The Market (1978) painting and is located by the Frankfort Gate entrance to Plymouth Market on Frankfort Gate. You can discover four life-size 3D Beryl Cook sculptures that bring the beloved artist's iconic Plymouth paintings to life — right in the heart of the city locations that inspired them! These striking sculptures, created in partnership with Theatre Royal Plymouth, celebrate Cook's distinctive humour and love for everyday life by turning her famous characters into unmissable public art.
Explore the Beryl Cook art trail in Plymouth and uncover the stories behind the characters and locations that made her one of Britain's most cherished artists. For the ultimate Beryl-inspired experience in Plymouth, don't miss the exhibition Beryl Cook: Pride and Joy, the perfect complement to your artistic adventure through the city.
Watch out for our next round of I-Spy.
