Housed within the lovingly restored Eriksen Premises, a former 1880s general store, Polly’s Pantry Gift Shop is more than a place to browse — it’s a step back in time. The original plank floors, weathered counters, and display shelves echo the days when the Eriksens sold dry goods to local fishermen and families.
Today, those same walls are adorned with unique artifacts and antiques from the 1800s and early 1900s, each telling a story of Trinity’s bustling past.
Among the historic displays, you’ll find a carefully curated selection of homemade preserves, Newfoundland literature, and locally crafted artwork, jewelry, and handicrafts — each piece celebrating the creativity and culture of our province.
We also offer a quality line of Canadian-made fleece, t-shirts, and outerwear that are as practical for exploring our rugged coastline as they are memorable gifts to take home.
Whether you come for a keepsake, a taste of Newfoundland, or simply to soak in the atmosphere of a restored general store, Polly’s Pantry offers a shopping experience you won’t find anywhere else.
Step inside, explore our heritage, and leave with something truly special.
