Big box stores and the malls are just so, well, predictable. Sure, we can find a million things, probably everything on our shopping list, at those stores. What we’re often missing, however, is the charm of an old-fashioned shop. The Demonte Market in West Virginia, for example, oozes charm – from its setting in a former historic hotel to its wide selection of West Virginia-made items.
Right across the street from the train station in Elkins sits The Delmonte Market, a former hotel that has been reborn as a bustling shop, bursting with handcrafted items from West Virginia artisans.
Trip Advisor/Glove Long before it housed The Delmonte Market, the historic building opened in 1899 as The Delmonte Hotel. The hotel often hosted travelers who were traveling via the railroad.
Whether you’re looking for that perfect gift for the impossible to shop for someone in your life or you just want to treat yourself to something special, you have plenty of choices at The Delmonte Market.
