“Went here for the first time today and really enjoyed the selection of gifts and local art. I took my sister here so she could pick up a little souvenir and some stationary. She ended up with several items. Definitely a local business I will be coming back to for more art prints.”
“I had a GREAT experience with the assistance of Gracie. She's a true asset to your shop. I've had a great experience regularly with all your employees, but I think I spend a bit more with Gracie!?”
“I always love going to Tia's shop. Great scents, jewelry, etc. Tia is so friendly and I have been visiting her stores since the early 90s. Highly recommend for anyone looking for cool stuff!”
“The 2 staff at the register where amazing i was checking out some pins for Christmas and they all helped me and lmk about the deals. very welcoming and professional”
“Cute shop with lots to browse. I felt very crammed while walking through here. It is not a very accessible place. Prices are pretty high, but they had some nice items.”
“I had an amazing experience here! The gentleman working there really care about the customer. I had a hard request and they tried many ways until it worked and turned out perfectly. They kept me updated through the whole experience. The price is extremely reasonable and in fact cheaper than Amazon, therefore support this small business!!! Great customer service!”
“I stopped into Bethie’s Lous shop and found the cutest baseball earrings made locally by an artist—absolutely perfect for game day! Bethie, the owner, is super sweet and genuinely enjoyable to chat with. Her passion for supporting local makers really shines through. This place is a true hidden gem in the area. If you’re heading to a Smokies game (or even if you’re not), make sure to stop in—you won’t regret it!”
“We did our wedding registry here, and the entire process has been a delight! They were so kind and helpful when we built it, and leading up to the wedding, they’ve been great about letting us know when gifts are ready to be picked up. Love love LOVE all my new dishes, and can’t wait to get more there in the future.”
“Super cute shop with lots of great items. I loved seeing all the wacky UT themed earrings and apparel. They also carry regular, non-orange clothing and accessories, as well as shoes, gifts, home and bath items, books, jewelry and more. There's so much to see and this would be a go-to spot for me for gifts if I lived in the area. I went in twice while staying downtown and fell in love with this cute leather cross-body bag. I was curious to see if the brand/designer was local, so I looked it up online. It was not local and the bag was steeply discounted online (50% off) vs the price at Bliss, so I ended up ordering it online directly from the brand. I do love to support local businesses and shops, but I also have to consider my budget. That being said, this is a great place to stop for a unique souvenir or gift for yourself or someone else!”
“this is the best little spot to get your besties a gift for Christmas or bday or any other reason. I was in there yesterday and the girl was so so friendly. lately this world has been very dark and cold and she was bright and sweet. I appreciated that. thank you”
“I tried to order an arrangement on line to be sent to my sister in law who is hospitalized at UT in Knoxville. I was unable to place the order so I called the store and spoke with Rachael who gladly took my order over the phone and promised a prompt delivery to my sister in law today!!
I am very grateful!!”
“I went to The Southern Market a couple of weeks ago for the first time and had the best experience! Such a great variety of items! The owner was so welcoming as I entered the store and was super sweet and helpful. I definitely recommend The Southern Market, and will definitely be shopping there again!”
