A "must" pop-in for visitors with lots of beautiful things including Rock Hall memorabilia. Sandy, the owner, is always there and so kind and friendly. "The Hickory Stick is a unique boutique because we carry a little bit of everything, from comfortable women's apparel and fashion accessories, including jewelry, to unusual gifts for men, women, couples, and children to home decor and bath & body. A common denominator is that much of what we feature has a nautical flair. Our boutique carries some brands you may recognize and love like Brighton, Spartina449 and Scout, but we are always on the lookout for the distinctive.
