Galveston Shopping
The Galveston Strand
shopping district is one of the main attractions of the island
with stores housed in elegant Victorian buildings, leisurely horse and carriage rides,
gorgeous window displays, and stores full of merchandise from around the world.
With all the art galleries, antique galleries,
gift and collectible boutiques, and dining establishments,
one could spend several days exploring fully the intricacies of The Galveston Strand and
Downtown Galveston.

I was told that there is a business in Galveston that carries a large selection of Fiestaware.
Can I get a name and possible web site for this store?
Thanks

I believe Yesterday's Best has a good selection of Fiestaware. You can go here: http://www.thestrand.com/yesterdaysbest
...for the phone number, address, and a map to their store. I don't believe they have a web site yet.

We will be in Galveston next weekend on the 12th-14th. What time do the shops stay open on weekends? And what is the one thing you recommend we see while we're there. (We'll be going to Moody Gardens also)

Most stores stay open until at least 6pm on the weekends. I'd, of course, recommend coming to The Strand. While you're there, I'd recommend seeing the Texas Seaport Museum & the Tall Ship Elissa. You can find more information online here: http://www.tsm-elissa.org/

Hi..What shop or boutique can you recommend for buying shoes, bags and perfumes? My husband is staying in Galveston and he doesn't know where to shop the goods to be sent here in the Philippines. I'll appreciate it so much if you can write to me at hrpascua2001@yahoo.c om.
Thanks a lot...

I lived in Galveston many years ago (around the middle to late 1980's) I had a picture made on The Strand at a photography shop. I'm sure it's gone now but I would like to contact the photographer, as I am in remission from cancer and hope to get a copy of a picture that was made of me there. I think it was McDonald's photography but I could be wrong. Can anyone help?

Does anyone know which store on The Strand carries "Crocs"? It's a type of shoe. Saw them there a year ago, but cannot remember the shop! Thanx!

I recently saw adorable soft mermaid dolls in a shop on The Strand, I can't remember the name. The shop has a small food market in the front, clothing and gifts. Anyone know the name?

I LOVE the Admiralty. The place is a unique and wonderful shopping experience. Bill, the manager, is helpful and knowledgeable and he has helped us to decorate our West End home with his suggestions. EVERYONE must go to the Admiralty, you will make it a regular stop on any visit when you are in Galveston.

I can't say enough about Douglas Mens Store in the Old Galveston Square building next to Chicos. I found high quality items at reasonable prices along with personalized service...a rare combination these days! Sure beats any mall store!

Hi there! Was wondering if anyone could help me out? I was there last xmas, shopping on the West end of The Strand and bought a few lighters that were shaped like flip-flops. They were a metal base w/floral colors for the straps. The base said: GALVESTON, TX. They are also refillable w/butane! I'd like to buy them in bulk, but can't remember from which boutique? Can anyone help me w/ a name, email address, or ph number for this store? Hope so. Thanks so much!!!

Is this website ever going to be updated? It seems it could be very useful to visitors on the island, as well as residents. Please?

I was in Galveston last weekend while visiting some Houston friends. We went into a small shop with many Indian (as in Asia) things, with dresses in the back of the store. I no longer have the receipt. I bought a dress I loved. Just something to wear around the house, definitely out of India. Anyway, it was stolen out of my suitcase on the trip home. If I knew the name & phone of the shop, I'd call to try to get another one. Thank you!!

Twenty years ago at least my husband and I bought a handcrafted gold caduceus charm in a store on The Strand. My husband has worn it every day since until he lost it last week. I would love to replace it if you know the name and number of the store. Thanks

I was on The Strand this past week and would like the name of the store that sells lotions and creams that they make in the color and aroma that you choose. I had a demo of the cream on my hands and would really like to order it if possible.
