Shopping & Retail Featured Est. 1956

About

Established 1956 and identified by the business itself as Canada's oldest gift store — 70 years of family ownership.

The trademark raspberry-pink building at 21 Edgewater Street takes its name from the 1813 privateer ship Teazer that burned and sank in Mahone Bay. Stocks jewellery, apparel, locally-made lavender products, kitchenware, children's toys, and a strong line of Curse of Oak Island-themed items.

    Beautiful store with superb friendly service! High end bathing suits and coverups. Good selection with nice range of sizes that fit really well. Great quality. A must stop when you are visiting Mahone Bay. Staff even suggested a restaurant where we dined on delicious fishcakes on their outdoor patio in the sun overlooking the picturesque churches. I will back to #The Teaser at my earliest opportunity.

    This is one of our favourite shops in Mahone Bay. I don't think we've ever left the store without some type of treasure! Love all of the odd kitchen gadgets they have; tableware and aprons, too! If you're looking for a gift for someone - something unique - this is a great place to start. We regularly purchase three of our favourite items here: Fraktals, smoked sea salt, and the non-scratching scrubbies for our pots and pans. Definitely worth the stop if you're in the area!
