Mrs. Mekler’s Mercantile
492 Beechwood Street, Cohasset, Mass.
A blink-and-you’ll-miss-it find (which we did, and promptly turned around), Mrs. Mekler’s Mercantile is a hidden gem of wonder cloaked within the overarching canopy of Massachusetts woods.
From outside, the tiny structure doesn’t hint much at the treasures inside, adding perfectly into its air of mystery. But once you’ve unlatched the always-open door, your eyes may not know where to look first.
Shelves and shelves of sweets, treats and extraneous marvels fill the space, including two giant coolers filled with beautifully crafted, albeit meltable, chocolates, caramels and truffles. Other surprises included local honey, cocktail mixes, pickles, dips, cookies, gourmet popcorn, coffee, frozen hot chocolate mixes and lots more. Even for such a small space (think your average-sized shed), it still took us about three times around to see it all.
Perhaps the most charming part about Mrs. Mekler’s Mercantile is its innate trust with its customers. Open daily and functioning totally on the honor system, folks can pay for their goodies by either cash, check or via Venmo.
