Such a lovely helpful couple - they go out of their way to support the businesses in the Emporium. A very personal service. The cabinets are varied which keeps the interest going. This couple (indeed the whole family) always work so very hard to ensure that the business succeeds. Thanks for making the Emporium a safe, comfortable and interesting place.

Good system in place for C19. Large store that spans across 3 shop space. Great place with lots of quirky things from toys to coins, homeward to collectables. Definitely worth a visit!
