“box lunch may just be my new favorite go-to store! and not just because they have a great selection of things to browse but also because of the associates there!! specifically jenae (my gworll!) she made my experience fun, with her great upbeat attitude and welcoming conversation! it was nice to shop around and have an associate be attentive but not be down your back while perusing. kenneth too who I swear is the best!!!! by sheer luck and the awesomeness that he possesses, he picked out a blind box for me (I told him I was looking for a specific one) and when I opened it in store after purchasing it was the one I was looking for!!! all the associates were amazing, and it honestly felt like seeing your friends when they're at work (lol!) great store with great atmosphere and a great selection! ✨”

“I work in the coffee industry and bring all of my aprons here for her to embroider to celebrate and honor our Partner of the Quarter recipient. Her work is exceptional and she is lovely to interact with. Turnaround time is quick. There is also a lot of very cute housewares, stained glass and other cute items made locally. Highly recommend!”

“Wow! I’ve asked her employees to lock the door when they see me coming (because I can’t stop buying). We have a house here in Va Beach and two cottages in Avon on Hatteras island. We have purchased so many things for our three home. In our cottage visitor book, we’ve had some may compliments on our decorations and art work.
During Christmas and birthdays our family only purchases gift cards from Sweet-peas because they know how much we love that place”
“This is the cutest place! If you are looking for Scottish or Irish, go here!!! And the gals that work there are very friendly and helpful. It's a great local shop.....”
“As a Chef trained in olive oil tasting in Cádiz, Spain, I have high standards when it comes to quality and authenticity. Savor the Oil meets those standards.
The oil shows excellent balance, clean aromatics, and a well-defined flavor profile that enhances dishes without overpowering them. It’s evident that care was taken in both sourcing and production. The freshness, texture, and finish make it suitable not only for everyday use but also for finishing dishes where the oil truly matters.
This is a product made for people who understand and appreciate olive oil as an ingredient, not just a cooking medium. A refined, well-crafted oil that I would confidently use in my kitchen.”

“Came in looking for a gift for my mom, whom has everything. I found the cutest little paper 2026 floral calender with a stand and know she will love them! Also have fallen in LOVE with Mackenzie Childs for myself and they have that, which is rarely carried at local shops because of the investment. Thank you for the help and pretty wrapping! Will be back in soon!”
“So far I have had a great experience with the gift shop. I often order online and have my student pick it up at the store. They always have very good communication. There was a shirt I ordered and they didn't have the size and asked if something else would be acceptable or not. Glad they do that. I wish they had more stock availability sometimes. It seems that it is advertised and often gone before I can get a chance to get into the store or order online.”
“Love this place! I have lived in Virginia Beach my whole life and I can't believe I didn't know about this shop sooner. Super cute gifts that you can't find anywhere else. My favorite place to go to get a gift for the one's that already have everything they need. Friendly staff and a great atmosphere.”
“my family and i visited recently and i got a henna tattoo that is super cute!! the talented tattoo artist did a wonderful job and the tattoo was a reasonable price! i would totally come back and total recommend this place :))”
“I have taken several classes at Rusty Cottage, and each time I have had the best time! I've learned alot from the owner, Leiah, who is very talented in her own right! I plan to take more classes in the future.”
“Such a wonderful experience I couldn’t believe it. The woman that I spoke with , Sierra, was so helpful and kind it was unbelievable. Everything came out as described and was so pleased with the design and was so flavorful. Thanks sierra! Thank you edible arrangements!”
“You can tell the girls who work here it’s just a job, nonetheless nice store not to be judged by the cashiers. I had no problem with them, just seeing how other reviews can be angry with whom runs the place the place itself is nice. Just get in, buy a souvenir, and get out!”
“A plethora of excellent and creative souvenirs, clothing, jewelry, toys and beach necessities, all at reasonable prices. A small amount of very practical grocery & first aid items. Love their salt water taffy and their friendly staff! Quality is excellent!”
“I 100% recommend this location. The store is clean and the staff is friendly. Sasha not only took my order and had it ready for me within an hour, She did it with a smile on her face and a friendly and warm personality. Best service i had in a long time!!!!”
“Pricey BUT a great outing for me & my adult nephews (visiting from ATL). We are just a day away to remembering their mother's (my only sister) death December 15, 2020. We even walked to the beach & had an emotional moment. Thank you, Ayana, for the cool, quiet vibe at your location.”
