Roanoke prides itself on being one of the friendliest towns in Indiana.
So much so, in fact, that the town's slogan in 1920 was "Merchandise in Roanoke always gives satisfaction!" We're not sure just how accurate that is, but we imagine it's probably pretty close to the truth.
Today, it's still the busy, beloved little shopping center it's always been.
There are shops for just about everyone along bustling Main Street. If you're an antique lover, you're in luck - there are at least two shops perfect for feeding your antiquing addiction!
Boutique clothing stores, furniture shops, home decor shops and so many more can be found here.
It's absolutely worth a day (or entire weekend!) trip to visit this little Hoosier town. It won't stay small for long; it's known as one of the fastest-growing areas of Huntington County.
There's not just shopping to be done - there's much local food and drink to be had!
Barbecue joints, pizza parlors, bar food, boutique bakeries, tea houses, and many more choices await you. Making the decision in regard to where to go for lunch is the hardest part!
There's also a large 25-acre park in the very center of town.
The shops and residents truly pride themselves on the "everybody's hometown" experience, and they totally nail it. There's too much here to love to pick just one or two favorite things.
As quaint as Roanoke is, it’s more than worth the way-too-short time it’ll take to peruse Main Street shops and delicious restaurants. If you fall in love with the place enough, there’s a super-cozy bed and breakfast in town, and trust us: it’s just as adorable as the rest of the town!
