F. H. Gillingham & Sons

What a delightful old fashioned store!!I It is refreshing to see these local stores that are well stocked and have plenty of items to offer. The store has groceries to accesories! you could spend a whole afternoon in this store(I do wish they had a restroom for buying customers). We picked some local cheese, maple syrup, candy and a few decor items

F. H. Gillingham & Sons is an absolute must-visit when you’re in Woodstock, Vermont! This old-fashioned general store has been around since 1886, and you can feel the history the moment you step inside. The creaky wooden floors, vintage shelves, and cozy atmosphere make it feel like time slowed down in the best way possible. You can find a little bit of everything here — Vermont maple syrup, local cheeses, candy, souvenirs, outdoor gear, kitchen tools, and even clothes. It’s the kind of place where you go in for one thing and end up exploring for an hour. The staff are friendly, welcoming, and clearly proud of the store’s heritage. Everything feels genuine and thoughtfully curated, not touristy. I loved the local food section and the nostalgic touches all around the shop. It’s a perfect mix of old and new, and you can tell it’s a true part of the Woodstock community. A classic Vermont experience you shouldn’t miss!

Fun little store you'd be silly not to visit when roaming the beautiful streets of Woodstock. Pricey, but it's pretty standard for these country / five & dime stores.

An all purpose general store. They have everything you can imagine. As spin as you walk in they have specialty food items, clothing, toys and general store items. They have loads of Vermont souvenirs as well. A real fun place to visit.

This store is an absolute delight! My husband and I spent an hour in here exploring every section, like two kids in a candy store! I was thoroughly impressed with the extensive inventory. They have everything you could ever need. We’ll definitely be back soon!

We stopped here to look around this general store while spending a long weekend in New Hampshire. This store attracts a lot of foot traffic from people looking around, but they sell a little of just about everything. They even have a fake mustache section… In the candy section, I even found they have Junior Caramels besides the usual Junior Mints! This store has been here for a long time and is still cool to this day. The staff is friendly.

While in Woodstock, VT last week we stopped in this general store. It is really cool and takes you back in time... Lots of everything there. It's a classic place from a time that is only a memory for many of us. Bought a few items.. you just have to. I'm sure you will enjoy as much as we did.

If you can't find it here, you don't need it. This place just goes & goes, glad I started dropping bread crumbs when I came in.
