“Visiting Style Shack is like visiting family. Everyone is happy to see you and there is always new inventory to drool over. It is my go-to for presents and hostess gifts. The wrapping is always gorgeous and makes even cheaper items look expensive”

“A darling shop with everything you could want in very tasteful decor for every holiday. Stopped in again today as I often do and it is now lush with Christmas items that are so unique! High end but not high priced, if you haven't visited, you'll soon wonder why you waited so long!”

“This is a great place to go with the whole family! Fabulous attention to accessibility and education throughout this huge garden.My husband and I stopped off here on our way out of Chicago to up north and it proved to be an excellent place to stretch our legs and take in refreshing air! There's a beautiful model train area that features all of these model trains and "road side attractions" of the United States which was so much fun to look at. There weee art exhibits throughout the gardens and benches and even a library you could go and look up information. We could have spent days here!With your admission, you get a trolly ride around most of the garden -- you get to see islands and meadows and research labs and you can get off at certain points and walk back if you'd like or simply ride the trolley and enjoy the day. My husband and I had my Service Dog in Training (SDiT) with me and the trolley people were exceptionally professional and polite.If we lived closer, this would absolutely be someplace I'd have a membership to. Very professional, beautiful, exceptional place I could see bringing lunch or work or meditating in a little corner!”

“I grew up in Wilmette and naturally chose to go to Yellow Bird for my wedding invitations. Laura made the process seamless with her input, and it was so much more fun to pick out elements in person versus online. Prices were very comparable to everywhere else. Can’t say enough good things!”
“Super cool stuff! Great for gifts and unique home finds. The young lady working there is super knowledgable, helpful, and patient. The buyer/owner needs to be commended for some great, unique finds. A bit pricey, but considering the high rent district, I get it.”
“Stopped by on a whim and was so glad I did! Mary is wonderful; friendly, helpful, and very sweet. Beautiful shop, well organized and reasonably priced. I would absolutely recommend stopping by!”
“I stumbled upon this place by accident but the crisp white and black colors from inside drew me in. It is bright, spacious and very well organized and clean. The customer service is BEYOND spectacular. I arrived just shortly after they opened and was walking around, the gentleman was kind and had a plethora of knowledge on the toffee and Gelato products. He gave me the history of the business and even about the toffee and co-business with the Gelato. His honest and product knowledge was superior. He demonstrated he knows his clients and product. The Gelato was out of this world, tasted like the Gelato in Italy because it really was produced by the Italians and the same way. We love toffee and they had numerous variations of flavors and chocolate collaborations. The coffee was spit on too. The quality of every product is truly superior like their customer service and very generous portions. Pricing is spot on for what you get. This place is worth the 30cminite drive from Glenview. Nothing compares to their flavors of Gelato and toffee selection. Lots of sitting room to socialize, read or work on your computer.”

“Jenny & Kevin were a delight to work with and they helped us with the design and made sure we got the award on time. They had very nice pieces to choose from and we would definitely recommend and use them again in the future.”

“Best place for invites and Personalized things very helpful very knowledgeable always gets things done in a very timely manner prices are good i give it a 10 plus”
“I was able to get quite a few gifts in one stop, great variety of things. Ranging from baby gifts, toddlers, kids...I got teenager gifts, sisters, husband, friends, hostess. Yes, a productive trip!”
“I have been shopping here since the late '80s. Some of my favourite earrings were purchased here. This is also a great source for hostess and wedding gifts. They specialize in artisan pieces for your personal use or for gifts -- glass, wood, pottery, etc. Today I picked up a gorgeous bar of Finchberry soap. Yes, I know I can buy this product online, but Citywoods has a huge selection and the Finchberry colours/designs/fragrances have to be experienced in person. I ended up purchasing shades-of-purple "Grapes of Bath," (he, he) but I think I'll be back for Moxie and Main Squeeze. plenty of street parking; helpful staff; lovely items”

“A great place to find unique gifts made by people from lower economic countries. Knowing your money is going to these artisans and also getting a quality piece for yourself or a gift for another”
“This is my first-stop gift shop. Without exception, every gift from Greenleaf Gallery has been a hit with the recipients; from clothes, to eclectic household wares, to art. The customer service is also first rate. I highly recommend it!”
“Wonderful experience! We're in from out of state for a baby shower and found an adorable gift. Staff was kind and helpful, even wrapped our purchase with a note card!”

“Nice cross section of giftware, skincare, pillows, furniture, tabletop, candles. Many of the giftware pieces are "same old" stuff but there are enough price points and selections to find what u are looking for.”
“Every year when I come to Winnetka, I always make it a point to shop Beat Street at least once. The owner and other staff have been super helpful when I needed it and just let me wander until I made up my mind other times. The selection is awesome! I always find multiple things I MUST have.”
“First time at this location. Note that the main photos shown are old. They told me that they don’t bring hardly any plushies in anymore and their focus is more on figures. They have a huge selection of sh figuarts and figma and then some other really cool statutes (non posable). They also have other anime knickknack things, if you’re a anime nerd this place is for you.”
“After being treated rudely by the Gurnee store, I called this Mundelein store to place an order Gurnee cancelled. I was enroute in my car and couldnt get back online, and the deadline to order for same day delivery was close. Employee Kathy answered the phone and was very polite as I explained my problem. She put me on hold and then Jose picked up and took my order. Franchisee owner Greg should be proud of his employees. I will use this store again! Great service.”
“I needed light weight pants for a last minute work trip, and they will able to ship out the pants to me that day. They even included a handwritten note! I highly recommend this store. I was in a pickle, and they were the only folks that were willing to help me out.”
“One of the girls really accommodated to what I needed for Mother's Day! Super nice girls even though you could tell they were extremely busy. Made a beautiful arrangement that my mother was so impressed with the gift! 10/10 would order again”
“Honestly, I'm shocked to see some of the reviews for this location as I couldn't have had a an easier experience getting a birthday cake along with several different kinds of fruity goodies for my father's birthday celebration. I placed my order with Vanessa who was incredibly helpful with picking out interesting options. Everything arrived while we were still setting up and even the driver was friendly. I was a bit worried since it was around 100 degrees that day but he had everything in bags and it looked good plus all of the chocolate was still solid. Most people went crazy for the cake even though my dad was hoarding it all night. Anyway, still shocked at the reviews but amazing service I'm coming here for all my special occasions.”
