"Cool eclectic shop that has a little bit of everything fashion wise and some other novelty items. For Christmas I bought some gifts for friends and some "Mexico" oriented items, the price is a little high but you can't get this stuff like this anywhere else in the city with the quality it has. They also have some pretty awesome chocolate tamales which were pretty dang good! It's in the Lamar Park Shopping Center, go support local businesses!"
"Cita is a wonderful place stocked with unique pieces, not just the run of the mill store. They have fun, beautiful, unusual items. It is a must see place. I have been shopping there when I am in Port A for over 20 years. Some items can be pricy, but well worth it. But there is always something wonderful I have to bring home for just the right price. MB Bastrop TX"
"awesome beautiful furniture for a low price customer services was also on point and they deliver"
"Cute boutique shop in the town of Rockport. Jewelry, clothing, home decor items. Super cute kids clothing, hand crafted items and lots of beach themed items. The ladies there were really nice and interacting with all the clients. Everything I looked at was super cute! Those ladies sure know how to buy for the store! If you walk to the back of the store, there's an awesome little wine bar (room) in the back. It, too, was set up and decorated super cute. When visiting Rockport, be sure to put The Coastal Mercantile on your must stop at shopping list!"
"Beautiful bedding, clothing, kitchenware, and other gifts. Was a little taken a back by the prices but other than that impressed with the selection."
"If you are a fan of fiesta ware this is definitely the place for you to be. They have an excellent selection and even have pieces I've never seen before. If you are a Fiesta Ware collector and you have never heard about this place, it is because it was built after hurricane Harvey. The owner of this store has a secondary location that I believe is in Fredericksburg Texas."
"I had a great experience here; this is the only "boutique" shop I've visited in the area and I'm not aware of any others around. The owner was nice and helpful; I was searching for a gift and she took care of me. This is a good shop if you're looking for high end candles, nice insulated cups/wine glasses/carafes, jewelry, soaps, etc. I was not in the market for antique furniture but there was a good amount of it for sale in the store. It requires some looking as it's used for displays, which I think adds to the charm of the shop. I will definitely be back."
"Clean store that goes on forever. For a non-shopper, it can be initially intimidating. Not to fear though as I am not a collector but do enjoy finding trinkets from my trips for the kid and I love this store. They have everything you could want for a souvenir at great prices. Huge Selection of Shirts and Beach Wear as well as fun things for the sun & surf. The staff are friendly. Plenty of parking."
"Cute boutique gift shop in the little beach town of Rockport! All kinds of stuff...home decor, jewelry, Mary Engelbreit items, gifts of all kinds and so much more! Now that I'm home from vacation, I'm wishing I would have gotten the little ME credit card case that caught my eye. So much awesome stuff there, be sure to check them out when you're in town."

When my grandmother suggested we go here because they carry dresses she likes, I knew my chances of falling in love with something were slim. For the most part, I was right, this was way over my head. Partially because I now live in North Carolina and I'd stick out on the sidewalk, partially because I guess I'm just not old enough to appreciate the style. But enter the rack of Mexican dresses (funny how I hated being made to wear them as a child but I adore them now). Beautiful, just beautiful, but pricey. They had them from many different regions but I've been favoring the heavily (all-over) embroidered dresses lately and after seeing the prices for one here ($270) I wanted to kick myself for not buying one at the beach at A Mano ($195). Same colors, extremely similar pattern, but I guess Pilar has higher rent to pay? The rest of the store carried flowy embroidered pieces, matching two piece sets, beautiful jewelry, Mexican trinkets, belts, shawls, accessories, and more. The women working were extremely nice, and of course I left with items in hand (minus the dress), but it probably won't be my first shop to return to when in town.

The only store in corpus that actually had what I needed without having to wait for 1-2 weeks. I took my bed home the same day The husband and wife team were very nice , attentive and gave me time to make a final decision. I went to the store a couple of times before I came back to make my purchase. They gave me specific instructions to make sure the assembly would be accurate and prevent problems in the future. I will definitely go back when I need more furniture. Thank you so much for great service.

It's been a year now since Rockport stole my heart... but, the other day? While I was out enjoying a day to myself... a MOMCATION, if you will? I was walking down the sidewalk having my first go at the shops there when I saw a sign that said "Come try a Poinsettia Mimosa" and my curiosity pulled me inside without a second thought. The shop is well curated with something for everyone to love. My favorite things that tugged my wallet were the bedding and grow pillows (very unique and high quality) and there are these incredibly soft kids button down shirts that would be great to get wet at the beach, dry quickly, protect from the sun AND look dapper all at once. What will have me return? Live music Saturdays!!! And the lovely woman who I chatted with behind the bar in the back. Yummy wine menu and sweet local vibes. Enjoy!

I'm sure it's a super nice gift shop, but antiques were thin on the ground. As I'm not in the market for wine stoppers, bejeweled whatnots, and home decor, but on a mission for antique furniture, this was a bit of a dud.

This is the MAIN spot for souvenirs and such when on the island! I loved going in here and doing some browsing. They have the cutest beach towels and super cute women's beach fashions. I got a super cute off the shoulder dress for a great deal which I was not at all expecting. They also have a great variety of swimwear if that is what you desire. Really anything you forgot to grab from home while at the beach or want to bring home to friends and fam they will have. Loved the artwork on the outside of the store as well.

"Wonderful, unique store FULL of gorgeous quality home items!! And the prices are fantastic! Love this place! Gayle and Mike are so lovely. We found two pieces of art and Gayle offered for us to take both of them home to try out on our walls to see which we preferred. Wow, Oh My is right! That's customer service! We have always adored this store but it continues to impress and welcome us."
"This is a nice little shop nestled in a local retail area near the water. I was actually impressed with the offerings. This was not your average souvenir shop that you find all over the area. There were so many items that I have never seen before any where else inside this single-story retail shop. There were a lot of artisan made craft items from around the country made of food, soap, jewelry, glass, you name it. They actually make a point of not having anything made in China at their shop. They also offer a few charitable items to benefit some worthwhile non-profits. For such a small retail space, they certainly had a lot of intriguing and interesting items that were well merchandised within that space. If you find yourself walking along Austin Street with their line of retail shops, this place is definitely worth stopping in to see."
"OK lace! Easy to find. Ample parking. Quick service with expert sales person. Well stocked floor choices. Reliable delivery. What more could one expect?"
"Divine gifts, unique bags, beautiful stationary. Luxurious coastal style home furnishings, this shop is carefully curated. With an expansive selection of lamps, tables, chairs, art and just the right accessories; you will find what you need to complete your room. Design services. Warm, friendly staff. Not your typical beach house furnishings. Most excellent place to pick up a hostess gift!"
"One of my all time favorite local shops on the island!! You can find unique and fun and beautiful treasures here you won't find anywhere else!! The staff is so welcoming and helpful but also doesn't hover over you while you browse for the perfect gift for yourself or someone else. And there's so much to browse! It's a must stop shop, you'll be hooked on coming back again and again. When you're weary from the sand and surf, hit the shops at Old Town, especially Saltwater Gypsies!"
"Service was fantastic. Jaime really know her furniture. Prices were very good and the quality of the furniture was excellent. I would recommend this furniture store."
"It was a cute store / boutique. Prices were a bit high. There was a lamp for $850. I doubt anyone will buy that. I loved the variety. Adorable products. Like I said, the prices were just way too high for a place in Port A."
"This is a really neat furniture store. Everything in their showroom is unique....you will not find any of the pieces anywhere in town! Prices are EXCELLENT. Most everything they have can be special ordered and the prices for a special order piece are suprisingly cheap! My mother built a new house and replaced all of her furniture in it with pieces from this store. Custom barstools, sectional sofas, bedroom sets, leather recliners, console tables, rugs...even lamps! The staff is extremely helpful. The hours the showroom is open is very limited (check their site), but you can make an appointment to shop the showroom with just the staff. They also do interior decorating consultations at your home for a small fee (under $100). I highly recommend this place....special order furniture, or buy off the floor!"
"Excellent place ! The owner Chris was such a great guy helping us out. We picked up some really nice bar stool chairs. The place has some really nice furniture and Texas memorabilia. It's definitely a place to check out. Prices are very very fair for the market. Thanks Chris for your help ! We will see ya again."
"This is a fantastic store and they have most of everything you need/want for decoration and gifts. Beautiful artwork, pottery, wall decoration and some furniture. Note- as soon as you turn west on Staples it is right there to turn in!"
"I just had furniture delivered and I am totally pleased with the quality of it once again! My delivery drivers (Richard and Roger) were extremely pleasant and professional the entire time. They set up the furniture extremely fast and answered any questions we had. Hands down Chubby's gets 5 stars from me!"
"Definitely don't pass up this one when in Rockport! Gifts for everyone, but definitely very girlie. Clothes, jewelry, beachy decor, purses, souvenirs. We were there on a weekend and lots of free street parking."
"What a cute little store! I stumbled upon this little gem when a friend of mine was raving about their whimsical gifts and beautiful wooden furniture! The store manager is so sweet and loves to chat with locals and visitors. Be sure to stop in to see their artwork, furniture, and to say hi to the manager here! Her customer service is stellar!"
"Coming from out of town of course, this place was really nice. The staff was very welcoming and the greeted us with happy smiles. Although we didn't buy nothing from them, it was mostly home decor and things for you bathroom. They also have some jewelry to see as well.Definitely take a look at this shop if you're in the Port Aransas area. Again the customer service here was great."
