Laura is not only helpful but a delight to talk to. So happy to have found Irish rasher bacon and black and white puddings for an Irish breakfast fix away from Ireland. For any of those of you looking for kooky and classy objets then you’ve found the place. Can’t recommend the place enough!

Love this store and it's owner, Laura! Lots of interesting and pretty things to look at and purchase as gifts for friends. Love the humor times as well. I come here often for the Irish Fry items aka "Irish Breakfast". If you e ever gone to the Emeralds isle you know that the pudding is not available in a grocery store. Make sure to check if she has in house as these items are popular. Enjoy your adventure here when she opens usually closer to 1p than 12p

I just love Laura! She is one of the kindest and most people you will ever meet! She has the most wonderful gifts ideas; some of my favorites are the beautiful silk kimonos, jewelry and fun socks! She makes fabulous beaded jewelry as well! She is a true gem!

My mom and I stopped into this shop while visiting Portland, and it was such a lovely experience. There are so many wonderful gifts and souvenirs to choose from. The owner, Laura, gave us such a warm welcome, and even took the time to make a handwritten note of good restaurants for us to try while in town - all of which were delicious! I also bought a pair of earrings she handmade and they're so unique and pretty. I would definitely recommend stopping into this charming store, it was a memorable visit.

I cannot say enough fabulous things about Darby Jones! The shop is fantastic, full of unique one-of-a-kind gifts for all of your friends and family. Last week I did Christmas shopping and bought my 22 yr old daughter gifts, 5 of my girlfriends special items I know they will love, a baby gift, my two cats lucked out and of course I couldn't forget myself. I finished off my set of collectable drinking glasses and I splurged on a fantastic smelling candle. You simply cannot go wrong. It's location is very convenient on Stevens Avenue, right up the road from Deering Highschool on the left. However, as great as the store is, the owner, Laura is the most special part. She is so sweet, takes her time helping you, is a great conversationalist and she makes you feel like you have known her for year's. She also is the best gift wrapper in the world which helps me out immensely. Don't wait to go in. Plan on spending a little time, there are so many wonderful things to look at!!!

A big thank you to the team at Darby Jones, especially Laura who went out of her way to make my mom's Mother's Day special. Super communicative and professional, Laura made sure I was in the loop for all aspects of the transaction. She even sent a picture of the wrapped gift before delivery. Highly recommend Darby Jones!

Laura is not only sweet and accommodating, she also cares not only about those who buy her wares, but also for those receiving her wares. I bought a condolence present that she personally delivered and guarded until the recipient came home. She is wonderful and if you have a chance to buy from her, you are supporting a way to treat people and a way that business should be done.
