its the most homey place you can walk into-the man who runs it is wonderful- i walked in look around-shared a story-bought old fashion candy an sat down in rockin chair an visited for over an hour--LOVED IT--judy dixon
Relaxed and fun establishment. They offered us cake and ice cream and a chance to sit and listen to the locals play and sing.
The store had alot of Homemade jellies and jams Etc. Had alot of novelty items and History along with live music. Well worth the drive.
We have to go here at least two or three time while we are visiting so the boys can go get glass bottled drinks. This trip was so BAD! It has new owners and WE WILL NOT BE BACK!! you just do not bad mouth the man that started the business you bought. My boys loved to see Mr Mellon and when they heard this lady bad mouthing him they said we will never come back here again
Nice place to stop for a cold drink and country souvenirs. The drink boxes remind me of the childhood summers I spent at my great-grandparents country store. The owner was very friendly and chatted with us about the area.
Stopped in here on a weekend trip and fell in love with the people and the place! Brought back so many memories of my youth and spending time with my grandparents in the country. The people that are there make you feel as welcome as can be and they are wonderful! This would be the only reason to come back to Mtn View!!!! Everyone needs to stop in here and enjoy the company and some warm boiled peanuts! If you have the time..stay for the show!!!
We used to come here to look at the unusual musical instruments. But they no longer have these. The store now just carries the usual tourist trinkets.But you can often find someone performing on stage in the back room. So it's not a bad place to set a spell and listen.
There's really just nothing special about this store. I was disappointed. Cracker Barrel has more atmosphere.
It seems to be a really cool step back in time. It was closed on Wednesday when we came through but open every other day. Excited to come back and look around maybe catch some comedy or music
Our family has stopped at Mellon's over the years. Maybe it's because we were there during the off season, but it seemed a little under stocked and disorganized. There wasn't as much neat stuff to look at anymore. I will give them the benefit of the doubt because my kids love the old fashioned candy and drink cases.
