You’ll find fantastic shops all over New Jersey, from Hoboken to Haddonfield, in our tiniest towns and largest cities. There’s no shortage of shopping opportunities in the Garden State, even putting aside the malls we’re known for. While I appreciate the convenience of malls, I’m a bigger fan of small, local businesses. Here’s one shop (of many) that stands out.

This is the West End Garage now.
