I highly recommend this shop. The entrance is on the side of a one of a kind, truly historic building in downtown Richmond, leading into the shop in the basement. Great place to find gifts, apparel, furniture...a lot that is authentic, handcrafted, or locally made, etc. Definitely an enjoyable and interesting shopping experience that will be worth your while

A charming and lovely shop, tucked away in the basement of a beautiful historic building in downtown Richmond. Katherine, the proprietor, is wonderful (and a cat lover!) and incredibly helpful. Great selection of quaint and unique items, gifts, decor, and much more!
Thank you so much Thomas! It was so nice meeting you all and I am hopeful for a cat soon. Again, thanks for the nice review! 🥰

5th & Main in indeed a hodgepodge and an awesome one at that. There are items for everyone's liking, including your 4 legged friend. We bought an awesome leather collar for our dog, Lizzy, that is great quality. There is something for everyone at 5th & Main so check it out. You could find some unique holiday gifts there.
This makes me so happy, thank you for taking the time to leave your review. We loved the picture you sent of Lizzy in her collar. So adorable! Hopefully you can bring her with you on your next visit. Thank you so much for spreading the joy!

She has a terrific greeting card selection, antiques, collectibles, jewelry, pottery, linens...the list goes on and on. Every time I go in, it's a new magical experience, as she moves and redecorates frequently! Don't miss out on this special place!
