brick-and-mortar stores
Not online shops
Brick-and-mortar stores are physical retail locations—shops you can walk into, as opposed to online businesses.
The term gained currency with the rise of e-commerce, distinguishing traditional storefronts from their digital competitors: Some customers still prefer brick-and-mortar stores where they can see products in person.
The image evokes the solid, tangible nature of a building versus the virtual realm of websites.
