I've purchased so many gifts here - jewelry, candles, home goods, etc. It's a beautiful old historic chapel and proceeds support the Old North Church Historic Site.
What a great surprise to find a shop that has more than just t-shirts and magnets. (Although their revolution shirts are cool and timely). You can find toys, jewelry and even very cool pocket knives! Check out their stuff that is related to the Crypt tour, awesome!
We visited on a Wednesday in mid-June 2025 around noon. This was our last stop on the Freedom Trail for the day and we decided this is where we wanted to spend our money to do the tour. We paid extra to do the Crypt. The general admission was $5 per person and $9 if you wanted to go into the crypt. After both tours we walked to this giftshop to see what we could get. There was a lot of generic merch here but the store was long and went way back. We did buy a couple things here.
Nice gift shop with handcrafted local items. They have free stamps here if you collect a book of those! One of the stamps has the current date on it.
