The Village of St. Jacobs

This place has its own charm. Very quaint and nice architecture around with so many different shops. The range of shops here is amazing, we saw so many spiritual, artistic decor shops, so many cute cafe and restaurants. Very clean streets and it’s nice and quiet and if you walk all the way down to the road you will see a bridge and Conestogo river flows beneath, it was very peaceful.

Very quaint and lovely main street that has a mix of Mennonite/country stores, trendy cafes and everything in between. I really enjoyed the toy store in the old church--really incredible selection of toys, games and puzzles in a heritage building. Well worth a visit if you're in the area.

I would be cautious of Rhonda. She is knowledgeable, but was rude to me and my friend while shopping and browsing for products. Quite strange customer service. I made sure I smudged after leaving.

It is a small town, you may visit some handicraft shops in town and try the craft beer in Culinary visitor center.

I love that the new Washrooms In The Village initiative! They’ve added signage to show where washrooms are available for public use at restaurants and shops during their regular store hours. There’s also a directory on their website. I think it’s brand new, but it is definitely filling in an accessibility gap that I’ve experienced shopping in the village before. Awesome! P.S. they also have a directory of dog friendly establishments if you like shopping with your pup 🐶
