Cana Store and Post Office is a historic general store and post office building located near Mocksville, Davie County, North Carolina. It was built about 1875, and is a two-story, three bay, frame building with a gable roof. The front facade features a broad hip-roofed frame canopy added in the 1930s, that serves as a "porte cochere." Also on the property is a contributing one-story woodshed built in the 1930s. The building housed a post office until 1954 and a general store until 1965.

It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2001.
