A treasure hunt with better odds.
For a village this size, Port Medway punches well above its weight in places to browse, discover, and linger. These aren’t big-box stores or prefab tourist stops, they’re small businesses shaped by their owners’ passions, quirks, and really good taste.
Each shop offers more than you expected and something you didn’t know you needed. Whether you are looking for the perfect piece of home decor, your new favourite record, or an afternoon tea straight out of Bridgerton, Port Medway’s shops deliver — with warmth, personality, and a lot of heart.
Rosefinch Mercantile & Tea Room (1615 Port Medway Road)
Housed in a lovingly restored 1850s general store, Rosefinch is a café, curiosity shop, and meeting space all in one. It’s where neighbours come to collect their mail, visitors come for tea and scones, and nobody minds if you pull up a chair and stay a while. Come for a sandwich, stay and join a crafting circle, buy a left-wing tea towel, or help plan next year’s Queer Prom. Click here to book an Afternoon Tea!
Open daily from 10am to 5pm.
Sea Port Gifts & Treasures (1627 Port Medway Road)
Founded in 2019, what started as a small-time shop has since grown into a nationwide home decor and gift-giving mecca. From kitchen and home decor, to plants and pots, to mats and seasonal favourites, the Sea Port carries a selection that is sure to please everyone on your gift list. Sea Port Gifts & Treasures makes it easy to put smiles on the faces of those you love.
Open daily from 10am to 4pm.
Salt-water Ballad Books (368 Long Cove Road)
New and used books, records, films and vintage furnishings, all chosen with expertise and care. This is a place for the slow browse, the unexpected find, and the moment when the right book or record (or even movie!) seems to leap off the shelf. Housed in a sunny barn a few kilometres down beautiful Long Cove Road, Salt-Water Ballad Books is a vintage treasure trove that turns a quick visit into an afternoon.
