This most unique hardware store is over 150 years old, and it has absolutely EVERYTHING! It was quite an adventure exploring the many nooks and crannies. The selections were endless, practical and unusual as well! We loved it!

It's a fun little department store for your Waterfront lifestyle. Shoes, Clothing, Wine Jewelry, Cards, Local T-Shirts and more in the city of bears, Downtown New Bern. Nautical Wheelers is the first stop leaving the DoubleTree and Convention Center, with maps and friendly local help. The sister store is 30 minutes away in the waterfront village of Oriental, NC. Open seven days a week at 10am. Spend a day or two in downtown New Bern, be sure to walk along the riverfront, watch the draw bridge open, stop in the Pepsi store (Pepsi was invented in New Bern), just up from Nautical Wheelers on Craven Street is Mitchells Hardware (your great great grandparents could have shopped there, it's that old) . Great restaurants in downtown and now lot's of outside dining.

My husband and I was waiting for the Pepsi Museum to open and thought we’d check out this store. So glad we did! They have just about everything from “back in the day”! For example, they had the paddle ball, and stink cigarette loads. They have numerous things that would peak the interest of the young and not so young! It’s a great place to look around, you never know what you might find!
