(Dad joke) Olive for this kind of store! (/Dad joke)But seriously, who doesn't love jarred, canned, pickled and fermented goodies packed tightly onto shelves, waiting for a discerning, drooling palate to sidle on by and slide a few into a basket for purchase? Places like this are my weakness, and I usually have to restrain myself immensely on how much I allow myself to buy, or I'll be in serious financial trouble!There's more here than just olives: garlic, sauces, jams and jellies, mustards and other condiments, pickled veggies, vinegars, oils, wine, kitchen goods, cookware and doo-dads, books, apparel, and likely a whole lot more I overlooked, while whittling down my selection to a handful of jars. Apparently I have good taste, as one of the employees remarked that I'd picked his two favorite olives in the entire store.Samples of olives and related products are available, but limited. Employees are very friendly, knowledgeable, and engaging. This is the sort of mercantile Mecca you hope, nay, pray to find while shopping in a small town, and the Olive Shoppe does La Conner proud!

I am still tickled at the most awesome service I just received...over the phone! I live in Edmonds and had purchased some little serving spoons from Ginger Grater a few years back. I wanted to give them as gifts for Christmas, but it's a drive so I phoned ahead to make sure they had them. Kelly answered and it was delightful from then on. She wasn't sure which spoons they were so she gave me her phone number and said send me a photo of them and I'll check...she even helped me do the whole photo and send "thing" while staying with me on the phone with me! Best service...ever! Picking them up tomorrow! Definately recommend them!

Love this place absolutely the best owners you could ask for. I only make it there 4 maybe 5 times a year and they always remember my name. Great selection of stock to choose from too

Best damn bacon pickles in the world! And they are vegetarian! Maybe even vegan! Gotta get the Good and evil pickles WITH garlic!

A visit to LaConner is not complete without stopping by Olive Shoppe Ginger Grater. This visit we left with some wonderful looking bbq sauces and some Swedish sponges, my favorite kitchen helper. And very friendly and helpful staff.

I always find something here that is unique! Last was a lingonberry compote, not sweet like the jam from IKEA. Made a great wing and bbq sauce! Many hard to find trinkets here for the kitchen, and great selection of Skagit Valley and Tulip Festival souvenirs. Staff is always helpful!, come here after a heavy lunch or wine tasting!!
