    Customer service is top notch.

    A great variety of artist types and keep sake goodies. Set for all budgets, anyone can go in here and find a special thing to put in their home. Online shopping is fantastic. The packages arrive carefully wrapped and protected and shipping was extremely quick. There were no issues whatsoever. I highly recommend based on my experience dealing with this place.

    Beautifully tasteful selection of unique gifts. I bought an incredible print by a local artist here that I absolutely love! The soaps are lovely little works of art themselves. Funny cards, jewellery & pottery, all in a sweet little shop. A must see in Whitehorse!

    The store is fantastic, the collection is superb and the couple owning their home and running the business are welcoming and love to chat about rocks! I could have stayed for hours; Paul is a delight and gave me insights about rock collecting while his wife walked my dog for me.

    This store has a little bit of everything and is a lot of fun to browse. They have fun, stylish souvenirs - something nearly impossible to find in the Yukon generally- and kids books, nifty kitchen supplies, clothing- it’s hard to leave empty handed!

    Located along bustling Main Street, the Midnight Sun Emporium is a family-owned gift shop that’s been around for as long as I can remember (15+ years). It is quite literally packed to the rafters with a plethora of goods, including locally-made crafts, jewelry, Fireweed honey, bannock mix, homemade fudge, t-shirts, and other delightful sundries. In short, there’s something here for everybody’s budget and taste.

    We ducked in here after patronizing Mac’s Fireweed Books and Murdoch’s Gem Shop. We weren’t looking for anything in particular – just “shooting the breeze,” as they say; however, we did pick up a couple of small items: Some locally-made jewelry and an enticing sour apple soda pop (I was almost tempted to grab some bannock mix, but got cheap). The pricing was fair and the service was Yukon friendly! If you’re visiting town, be sure to stop by this adorable shop. I guarantee you won’t leave empty-handed!

    Nice variety of souvenirs including jams, honey, syrups, etc. Really nice staff both times we stopped in. Be sure to check out the clearance section. We found a really nice Yukon hoodie ($56.95 marked down to $28.48) and a Yukon thermal top. Prices are in line with what you will pay in the area.

    It’s is a gift shop. However it has a lot of history. There are pictures and stories of the history of the gold rush. There is a beautiful woman’s belt from way back that should be seen.

    This is a wonderfully well-stocked quilt shop. It can easily compare to any large US quilt store. The owner is an absolute delight to talk to. She welcomed me quickly and introduced me to her row by row kits and showed me numerous panels she had for sale. There are lovely wildlife quilt kits and many, many yardage options that I have not seen in our local stores. Despite my best intentions to not buy more fabric, I walked away with a quilt kit and a row by row kit. They were too irresistible! Highly, highly recommend this store both for its selection and for its friendly and helpful owner and staff.

    We happened upon this place as we were seeking refuge from the cold. (Walk two blocks, find a place to go indoors to thaw before heading out again) Enjoyed looking at the current exhibition Rebekah Miller “Skin”. Some historic photographs of Whitehorse on exhibit as well.

    I love the Local Yukon yarn and accessories that this shop carries, and you can’t beat the customer service.

    Mac’s Fireweed Books has been called “an institution on Whitehorse’s main drag” by Brick Magazine. Indeed, with a history dating back north of 60 years, the proclamation is apt. For well over half a century, Mac’s Fireweed Books has been pleasing bibliophiles, casual book readers and tourists with its good selection of texts, calendars, toys, and book-related sundries. I would say, of the few shops we visited along Main Street, Mac’s was by far my favourite. And I’m not just saying that because I’m a lover of books! I also appreciated this store because it reminded me, in many ways, of another bookstore – Books and Company in Prince George: Both have a funky exterior (love the purple on Mac’s!); both have a focus on “the north;” both regularly feature local/northern talent and readings; and both offer perfectly cromulent service. But getting back to Mac’s. . .

    I was impressed with the overall variety available at Mac’s: Yes, the “northern” selections are pretty vast, but so too are the other offerings. For instance, Mac’s features perhaps the largest magazine selection I’ve seen in any bookstore, be they independent or a large chain. Their bargain books in the basement are also noteworthy. In addition, the customer service we received was top notch – friendly and engaging!

    When our all too brief visit was said and done, we departed with a few books, Yukon-themed magnets, and a couple of lovely souvenirs for the family. If you’re visiting Whitehorse and love books and a fun environment, you should definitely make Mac’s Fireweed Books a proverbial “must stop” on your itinerary!

    We have fished with Steve several times and it's always a great adventure. He knows the local waters and is focused on fly fishing. I'm sure he is great with beginners and he has always been a great guide. He is very professional and safety is paramount when your with him. He makes a great lunch too. You won't regret going out on a trip with him.
