The Fig Tree is a cute shop in the West Loop that I've tried to get to for some time. It's not very large but they have a wide variety of gifts and even souvenirs. They have some great Chicago-related merchandise: Glasses, coasters, kitchen towels, and so on. I was surprised to see an area with children's items like onesies and t-shirts and some small toys. They had a lot of cards, as well as a big section of socks. A lot of snarky and irreverent items too. This shop isn't easy for me to get to--I live on the north side and so it's nowhere near my neighborhood, and the couple other times I've attempted to visit here there was no parking around, so I'm not sure I'll be able to get back anytime soon. I would recommend it though and will be back if I'm around.

I stumbled upon this when I was walking and it was such a cute find. They have unique gifts, and Chicago themed stuff. I would definitely recommend stopping in!

First visit and I'll NEVER go back! Peeked in the window and only one customer in the store. We enter. Minutes pass and a customer at the door is invited in. That customer was greeted and assisted. We were browsing and when the lady finally asked if we were looking for anything in particular (we weren't)...only a few minutes later and we were encouraged to leave. Nevermind we visited post the COVID quarantine and stores were just reopening. No one was waiting to get in so my friend and I couldn't understand why the lady was rude and rushed us on our way. Bye bye Fig Tree!

A personal favorite stop of mine going on several years now! It's almost hard NOT spending too much money on all the things I "just have to have".

This shop is one of my favorites for a reason that it is an excellent destination for purchasing good quality and one-of-a-kind presents that are suitable for almost any occasion. They offer a wide range of products, each of which, will convince you that you need to add it to your shopping cart immediately. When you go there, you can pick up a ton of little trinkets, candles, mugs, cards, and other gift items to bring with you when you go visit family and friends who live in other cities. I went out and purchased some mugs not too long ago here as a present for my mother, and she absolutely loved it so much. In addition, I am very appreciative of how friendly and helpful their staffs are. Also, the ambiance within is one that is very pleasant to be in. Unquestionably worthy of a shot at least once! I will surely will come here again next time.

In terms of selection, the Fig Tree is a great gift shop to visit. Cards, wine glasses, and exquisite stock are just a few of the products available to choose from, and they may be customized to match any and all of your gifting needs.As a gift, several candles with different Chicago-inspired aromas were purchased, and they have all been well-received. They give excellent customer service and are incredibly helpful in all facets of their business operations.As an added bonus, their products are reasonably priced, so you will be able to purchase a large number of gifts for your friends and relatives without breaking your wallet. I also appreciate the fact that the fig tree is taking such wonderful care of us while we are out shopping for the holidays. The fact that the store was not overly crowded allowed me to feel completely at ease while doing my shopping. As has usually been the case, the selection and service were both excellent. Highly recommended.

Support your local businesses. Far and away the best shop in the West Loop-I do all of my card and gift shopping here for a notoriously fickle audience and they are always a hit. The Fig Tree is an outstanding gift shop. Cards, wine glasses, and cool socks for all of your cheeky gift needs. My wife absolutely loved the card and wine glass I got her here.

This is a cute little gift shop with lots of trinkets and other gift items to bring with you when you visit with out of town friends and family. I’ve purchased multiple candles with difference Chicago-inspired scents as a hostess gift, and they have been very well received.They also are dog-friendly if you wanted to bring your four-legged friend in with you while you’re on a walk and they do also offer gift wrapping.An added bonus of this store: all of their employees are vaccinated and they broadcast that on their door. I love seeing business that take COVID-19 and their customer and staff’s safety seriously.

The store is small but large in cuteness and unique items. We bought a pair of cute llama house shoes/boots. The only thing that kept me from leaving 5 stars was the young lady at the register. She seemed to be very quiet and not really interested in speaking with customers, at least not us. Other than this we enjoyed the store.
