Family-owned and operated for nearly 30 years, we are simply passionate about puzzles and puzzling, to sharpen your mind and to make learning fun!  We strive to offer that personal touch, and our goal is to simply delight all of our customers.  We genuinely care about all of the products we sell, and we want to share our favorites with you.

Open every day, year-round, PUZZLES is a fun and upbeat, full-service puzzle store on the canal at Front Street, in lovely, historic, maritime, Lewes, Delaware.  Our experienced team is there to help you select the very best product for you from our extensive assortment, which we’re proud to think of as the best puzzle selection in the USA!  We also have a Test Area where you are welcome to play with everything you find on the tables - note: during COVID-19, we have temporarily removed games and brainteasers that we usually have there. 

We are truly a one-stop puzzle shop with a huge selection of jigsaws, brain-teasers, mazes, crosswords, sudoku’s, thinking games, mind-boggling challenges and much, much more – all designed to exercise and help lubricate your mind!  We love that our customers are all ages and abilities, from the youngest kids to adults and parents, to seniors of all ages, from families through casual players to the most serious individual puzzlers.

Giving Back: PUZZLES and our sister store, Lewes Gourmet, decided to take their environmental engagement one step further by becoming a member of 1% for the Planet. This means we pledge 1% of our sales to environmental non-profits committed to creating a healthy planet.
