The Carlisle Market

If you ever find yourself in Carlisle, you HAVE to check out this adorable market! Situated right downtown along the square in a beautiful beautiful building, this market with a an adjacent covered patio will catch your eye. The outdoor patio has several tables and chairs, patio lights on strings, and a little bar area in the corner that looked like they may serve drinks outside on occasion (we weren't sure). Just inside the front door is a small counter with various baked goods (like cake pops and donuts). Beyond that, are several rooms filled with boutique merchandise, home decor, woodworks, stuffed animals, kitchen goods, clothing (mostly adorable t-shirts for everyone), coffee, candles, cheeses, and so much more! Just a variety of adorable and delicious items that are perfect for gifts and for yourself -- many of them produced locally. My husband, my son, and myself all delighted in different things we found here. We ended up grabbing a couple pints of Crank & Boom ice cream (YES!), some t-shirts, and a handmade child-size rocking chair from a man outside the store that happened to be selling them that day. Great finds!
