Dave really rocks it!
Dave's Rock Shop has been in Evanston for decades, but moved to new digs spring, 2015, just across the street at 711 Main Street. The bright, welcoming store has rocks and gemstones of every kind (loose stones, beads, jewelry) items made from stone (jade, geodes, and more) AND a fossil museum in the basement. A great discovery place for kids and adults alike. Located near the Main Street purple station and in a block with other unique shops.

Cute little place
Super cool natural rocks at this little store. Some pricey but many inexpensive pieces of jewelry and accessories. Pretty neat! Got a couple cute bracelets of rose amethyst and bloodstone.
