Wild Iris is the longest running feminst bookstore in Florida and it's just down the street from the University of Florida. Great women's books, feminist theory, best sellers, children's books and textbooks too. You can find female positive and gay positive gifts, movies and cards too.
Wild Iris often has book signings, poetry readings and Independent Musicians playing in the backroom.
This is not a bookstore you want to miss.

I had to go to nearby Joann Fabric and happened to stop in this store because it looked fun and it was! There were so many wonderful books. I am in love with their Florida Books section. Then they had cards I have never seen before, they were very unique and artistic. I have to admit I went a little crazy with the beauty products. It was money well spent my skin looks and smells terrific. I had never heard of Thymes before, so it is a great place to get great products. It was fun to shop there I was probably in there for two hours. So many many wonderful things. I can't wait for my friend's birthdays and Christmas. I know I can get them something special and different with a beautiful card to match. This is my new favorite place to go!
PROS: Fun uncommon gifts, great books, great prices on books.
CONS: I found it too easy to break my budget in there!(but that's my problem)

This is by far the best chocolate in the Gainesville area. The moment you walk in the small store you will smell the delicious chocolates. They have a large disply case full of every chocolate candy you can imagine. They even have sugar free (you poor people). The candy is smooth and delicious. The price is a little high but well worth it. Forget the calories and treat yourself to a little bit of great chocolate!

I remeber when they were on 6th St., and I was given a Buche du Noel for Christmas that year. Superbe! The best bread, pastries, gourmet food in Gainesville. Prices are a little weighty but well worth it for the special occassion. Wonderful place to stop in and grab lunch. They usually have a few specials and their soup is wonderful on a cold day.

This place is awesome. Just about any type chocolate you could want (love the English Toffee). The candy is made on the premisis and is always fresh. I've never had anything bad from the place. It's worth every dime you pay!

Although this store is named factory Card outlet, I feel like their card selection could be larger. In addition, their selection of wedding items is a bit limited, and those items that they do carry are rather cheap in quality. They do however have a wide variety of themed party items. If you check it out right after a holiday, they have some great sales! Once bought red tapered candles for .15 cents after Valentines!

This place offers decently priced home cooked type meals with a southern flair and also they have a seperate section with a country store on the other side which offers a wide variety of well everything from Yankee candles, candies, old fashioned everything toys candies, dishes books you name it they have it. Even though the restuarant is cheap the country store gets a bit pricey but all in all its a really good place to go, especially if you like old fashioned cooking and items. This store gets insanely crowded on weekends especially in the morning so its a huge wait. Sometimes my husband and i just go somewhere else because the entire place is packed and noone feels like waiting 45 minutes to eat lol. Overall this is a nice store.
