Whether you’re visiting for the weekend or live just around the corner, this stretch of town is packed with unique finds and local flavor. Here’s how to spend the perfect day exploring Water Street, one local gem at a time.

As you continue your walk, you’ll come to Tigris, a stunning boutique filled with ethically sourced homewares and textiles that feel both timeless and worldly.
Ready for a bite? On weekends, stop at WaterDog Kitchen + Bar for a delicious lunch and maybe even a craft cocktail on the patio. It’s casual, cozy, and one of the best-kept secrets in town.
After lunch, continue your exploration at Rising Tide Apothecary, a wellness boutique offering clean skincare and holistic remedies, including their popular medicinal mushroom gummies. A few steps away, pop into Nest to browse a mix of modern boho home accents and gifts before heading to DISH, a thoughtfully curated women’s clothing boutique with a focus on sustainable fashion. Just next door is The Lady Next Store, where you’ll find elevated essentials, unique accessories, and more from independent designers.
