From Tonics And Treats To Toys And Trinkets, You’ll Find It All At This Charming Little Shop In Oregon

We all know how important it is to support local businesses. Shopping locally keeps hard-working, mom-and-pop shops afloat, which in turn fuels the community (and economy) in a myriad of ways. And in Oregon, supporting the local economy is a no-brainer, especially with charming retailers like BELLA. BELLA is an adorable little mercantile with two locations in Baker City and La Grande, providing folks incredible customer service and an old-fashioned shopping experience that's hard to come by these days!

BELLA is the kind of store that beckons folks from afar. Its whimsical storefront windows and displays harken back to a different time... and that's intentional.

Because just like the mercantiles of yesteryear, BELLA is more than just a place to pick up a bottle of wine, cast iron skillet, fresh eggs, or deli sandwich; BELLA is a community hub where customer service and hospitality reign supreme.

On the shelves at BELLA, you'll find everything from kitchen supplies and locally grown produce to handmade wares, artisan chocolates, unique gifts, and even toys.

BELLA is best-known, however, for the wine and grocery selection. Think high-end, specialty store, but with small-town service.

At BELLA, the customer service is everything, with the friendly staff happy to help you find the perfect bottle (or case!) for your needs!

More than merely a grocery store, BELLA is also a wonderful place to grab a drink and bite to eat.

The menu changes seasonally, but one thing remains constant: the food will be really, really good. (This spin on chicken and waffles? Yes, please!)

BELLA celebrates the local, highlighting Oregon ingredients whenever possible, both on its lunch menu and store shelves.

BELLA is total #shopsmall goals: a thoughtfully curated mercantile highlighting Oregon grown-and-made products, with friendly staff, unique items, and an unrivaled shopping experience.

Come and support your local makers, growers, and merchants at BELLA in Oregon!

BELLA is a delight of a shop that offers visitors so much more than a place to shop; it's a place that warmly welcomes patrons and offers customer service that's truly unrivaled. Visit BELLA at one of their two locations: 2023 Main Street, Baker City, OR, 97814 and 1216 Adams Avenue, La Grande, OR, 97850.
