“This store is really great I bought some nice clothes here and some boots That were actually really nice and they were running a seal 75% off and 35% off in the stores is a very nice store.”
“The owner of this shop is amazing. Her customer service is top notch. If she doesn’t have what you need in stock she will get it for you. We have been coming to her store for over 18 years. I have purchased beautiful and high quality baptism and communication clothes and accessories. It is my first stop for all gifts related to the sacraments. It’s the only place Incan find anything related to all the saints. This store has an excellent selection of books as well. .”
“Excellent customer services. Cake and bouquet choices ✌? Highly recommend Edible Arrangements. It was a pleasure interacting with Pavi for my orders. Pavi gave personal attention and worked on my orders with diligence. Thank you!”
“I most recently went to The Paper Store to get my ears pierced! I had been wanting a third hole in both ear lobes and noticed the ear piercing sign in the window a few times so I thought I’d give it a try. I brought my 6 year old daughter with me in case she was interested in also getting her ears pierced. Maggie helped me out this particular afternoon and she made the experience so positive and fun. She was thorough in explaining the process as well as the piercing after care. She also helped make my daughter feel included and helpful. I picked out earrings, we each got lollipops and overall it was fun and nearly pain free, to my pleasant surprise. I highly recommend them and if I decide on a fourth piercing I’d definitely go back!”
“Hallmark cards and SO MUCH MORE! A nice selection of presonal gifts in addition to the tradition cards, ornaments, and gift wrap that one expects.in a Hallmark store.”
“I ordered an arrangement for same day delivery, and Edible Arrangements did not disappoint. The arrangement was beautiful and arrived on time. Great job! I highly recommend Edible Arrangements!”
“I love Tesoro. I have been gift shopping there since it opened in Middletown, pre-covid, and followed the store over to Meriden. I always find really nice, really well-made gifts there. A lot of locally manufactured stuff, hand-made. It's my first stop around the holidays.”
“Great little shop to keep the wife happy. For such a small space, Tyler does an amazing job of displaying just about every tchotchke available in the State of CT. Gentlemen, if you need to get out of the marital dog house, visit Tyler. Now, I can’t be responsible for how much your wife will spend in here, but it’s a small price to pay to stop sleeping on the couch!”
“I’ve been going to Gail at The Write Approach for 13 years, and her store is truly one of a kind. It’s where you go when you want everything to feel special. The quality of her invitations, gifts, and party items is unmatched, and every piece she offers is thoughtful and beautifully curated. Walking into her shop feels like stepping into a world of creativity and celebration. Gail has an incredible eye, endless ideas, and a genuine passion for bringing your vision to life. She elevates every event and offers personal service you simply cannot find online. She’s a true gem in our community, and I can’t recommend her and her shop highly enough for any party, gift, or stationery needs.”
“A charming little store with a fun mix of gifts. I bought a necklace for my sister in law and a pillow for a friend. I may go back for one of their turkey pillows for Thanksgiving. Reasonable prices on many of the items and a friendly woman wording there.”
“I had a great experience at this location! One of the employees was beyond helpful in picking out a gift for my sister! Her name was Lynka and she was fantastic! Great work!”
“I go to this museum with my father quite often because their exhibits often change and I simply breathtaking. The best part is, is that's it's free to get in.”
“I always find the perfect card or gift at this Hallmark store and I am always greeted by an employee right when I enter the store. One time, I needed to get a card right into the mail and an employee allowed me to use their counter to write my card so that I could put it right into the mailbox just outside the store. Prices are a bit high but they send lots of coupons by email and you can combine coupons for your purchases. They have a great selection of cards for any occasion.”
“I recently shopped at The Barn Boutique & Gifts....what a warm, friendly atmosphere! From the smiling faces ready to help you to the wide selection of clothing, accessories and gifts - they have what you are looking for. The baby section is full of adorable gifts too!
I stopped in for a sweater I saw on their live Instagram sale and also grabbed a matching top and a couple of fun gifts.
Don't drive by...go in and check out what they have to offer!!”
