Canton Street in Roswell, Georgia, offers a unique and delightful experience. What immediately stands out is how the shops and restaurants are nestled within beautifully renovated historic homes. This gives Canton Street a distinctly Southern charm, making it feel both welcoming and special.
Our exploration began at Linen & Flax Clothing (L&F). This boutique is instantly inviting with its porch swing beds out front, practically begging you to take a seat. Inside, the clothing selection looked incredibly comfortable and airy – perfect for the Georgia heat, or really any kind of unpredictable weather the state might throw our way. Good to know there’s also an L&F home store just around the corner, definitely worth checking out too.
Next, we ventured into Steel & Cotton, a home décor store brimming with unique finds. They have a wide array of items, from decorative pieces and stylish lighting to furniture and charming little gifts. Notably, they also have a dedicated section for children’s items. If you’re searching for distinctive additions to your home, Steel & Cotton is a must-visit to see what treasures they have waiting for you.

Our pre-lunch stop was at the Raiford Gallery, and it was truly impressive. The gallery itself is housed in a stunning two-story wooden building, with an interior that’s just as beautiful. Large windows flood the space with natural light, showcasing the incredible pottery, artwork, and jewelry on display. The handmade jewelry particularly caught my eye, featuring a diverse range of designs. I’m already planning a return trip, both for myself and to find unique gifts. Just browsing the gallery gave me a real appreciation for the artistry and creativity involved in crafting jewelry.

Just a short walk through a quaint alleyway behind Raiford Gallery led us to Adele’s, where we indulged in some delicious Cajun cuisine. Adele’s did not disappoint. We sampled the daily appetizer, Pimento Grit Sticks, savored a flavorful muffaletta sandwich, and ended our meal with delightful beignets for dessert.
