The Local Basket Case

Cozy shop with local merch including upscale tshirts, sweatshirts, magnets, stickers, mugs and decor. I always stop in and purchase something when I'm in the area.

Visiting Alpena from the metro Detroit area we stopped into The Local Basket Case. The store was amazing. Not your average run of the mill souvenir shop. Everything was quality made, stylish and so reasonably priced. Griffin, one of the store owners, was so personable and full of knowledge. He informed us of some must see locations. Rockport Recreation Area in particular.
Which honestly, may have been our favorite part of the entire trip. Great experience all around. We'll definitely visit everytime we are back in the area.

Amazing selection of Michigan merchandise and amazing people running it. When they were out of a couple shirts we wanted in our size, one of the owners volunteered to travel to their store in a different town to pick up the shirts. They were there the very next morning waiting for us!

I really like this store. The service is informative and friendly. The gear is Michigan based with plenty of local and state paraphernalia. There are lots of styles and colors to choose. It's a great asset to our downtown.

Such an amazing shop with great employees! I found some really cute items that were must haves! The clothing is so comfortable and all the other knick-knacks were useful and so lovely! Overall an amazing shop!

Everytime I'm visiting family in alpena I have stop at this store! They super cute clothes for everyone.

Great selection, friendly staff! We love stopping here when we are back in town visiting. They have the softest blankets you can find

Just an over all amazing experience with the manager! We came down from Canada, and we're looking for souvenirs and this was the perfect shop! Would highly recommend.

This is the friendliest store with the most incredible Michigan merchandise in the entire state. Always worth a trip inside to see what's new.

Great place to buy anything Alpena or up north. They offer a wide range of sizes and usually have an awesome sale section. Great place to buy local!
