With Falmouth BID's 'Save the High Street' campaign in full swing and the summer season upon us, we thought we'd find out which was your favourite of Falmouth's hidden (and not so hidden) shopping gems.
Using a highly scientific formula of business directory reviews, general opinion in the town and the service they provide we've whittled down the vast array of awesome boutiques to the following:
The Shake Shop - OK, so this one isn't exactly hidden, but it has got some great reviews in our business directory and seems to be popular with students, locals and holiday-makers alike.
Jam - On paper it may look like an odd idea for a shop, but the folks behind one of Falmouth's last music emporiums have kept the independent music shop sprit alive in the town by diversifying into the café world and offering you a latte with your LP.
Two Little Birds - Falmouth's oh-so-stylish vintage clothing mecca, Two Little Birds is the place to go for trendy clothes and über-hip accessories. But are they your favourite?
Stan's Games Exchange - "Stan's" as its affectionally known has been in a few locations over the years but has always remained the gamer's first port of call in Falmouth. Currently located opposite Argos, are the video games specialists your favourite shop in town?
Richard Cook - If you're after some good quality furniture, Richard Cook is the place to go. Located on Killigrew Street near The Moor, is it worthy of the title 'Falmouth's hidden shopping gem'?

What is this 'Jam'? I like the name! I used to love 61, the clothes shop - wherever did it go?! It was replaced by some sort of bakery!
