“Love this place so much for its vast amount of things to look at and purchase. A couple months ago a friend in my life lost a close dog to him that was a corgi, and his game plan for the mall was to find a plush toy that looks like him to comfort him. I immediately ran to this store and found all the corgis I could (which was a lot!) and he was thrilled to purchase a big cuddly one. I also have bought littlest pet shops and other collectables here before. The staff is so friendly!”
“What a beautiful company. I recently ordered some pachyderm (elephant poop) paper notebooks and it came with a handwritten note and an explanation of where the product comes from. This is what true humanity is all about.”
“Abigail's is such an amazing place to shop and gem of a store to have in South City and even StL overall!! Love being able to shop local and we are so fortunate to have such fabulous options with Abigail's store!”
“The Cat’s Meow is my go-to place for personalized gifts, especially baby gifts. The quality is fantastic and the turnaround time is amazing. And while I’m there shopping for gifts I always manage to find something for myself from their great assortment of women’s clothes. I love buying things there because the quantities are limited and you don’t see people wearing your outfits everywhere you go.”
“Visited a friend in Saint Louis who had Sammy Soap. When I got back to California I ordered the sampler pack and I love it. Amazing product and shipped to California in a few days. Cannot recommend enough!!”
“I went in here to get a personalized graduation gift. The lady behind the counter made my choice easy and took all the guesswork out. Very cute store but a bit pricey”
“I want to thank Edible Arrangements for a last minute quick turnaround on a super busy day! I ordered from 1800-Never-Again and the second year in a row they failed to deliver her gift! Edible Arrangements came in right when I needed them. It means the world to me that she still was able to get a nice gift because of them. Thank you so much to the whole team who worked so hard on Mother's Day.”
“In high school and college, the Sign of the Arrow was "the place" for needlepoint key chain fobs we'd gift our girlfriends when they got their drivers license or joined a sorority. I still have a needlepoint key chain fob my sister updated with my married monogram. I've been a needlepointer since college and this is a wonderful store with helpful volunteers from Pi Beta Phi. The store is a nonprofit that helps Pi Beta Phi's philanthropy. As a sorority woman, I like supporting Pi Phi's philanthropy while shopping for needlepoint supplies, a hobby I'm getting back into. They have great designs for the local schools and colleges, plus cute seasonal decorations and sorority gifts. Check it out and continue the tradition of the needlepoint key chain!”
“I called to see if they had an item in stock I had seen on the website. The woman checked and said they had one. I told her great, confirmed their hours and said we'd see them shortly. When we arrived a couple hours later we didn't see it. So we asked the man behind the counter who couldn't find it either. I mentioned I'd called and confirmed it was in stock. He checked and the thoughtful co- worker had set it aside for us!! She didn't ask my name or tell me, just didn't want us to be disappointed. You don't find that kind of thoughtful customer service just anyplace!! Truly a blessing as this is a first communion gift for one of our grandsons.”
“BoxLunch is always a neat place to stop any any mall, but I feel like they've stepped up their game. Today was the first time I actually wanted to purchase something from their store.
This particular location is small yet dense. If you like BoxLunch or are curious about what's inside, give this location a try.”
“Kristin and Kathleen were both very, very sweet and super helpful! I went in to see what they had to offer for Halloween decorations, I was so shocked to see they had all of that and more!
The store is twice the size compared to how it looks from the outside. They had products from women-owned and family-owned brands that each has their own story. Everything from self care, home goods, gifts, and decorations were available to choose from.
I would go back! I went in thinking “I shouldn’t buy anything – I’m just looking!” I left the boutique with 2 products I didn’t know existed and definitely have to gift. Thank you, Kristin and Kathleen!”
“A St. Louis institution that outsiders may not understand completely. Yet, deliciousness is hard to argue with especially when it's frozen and you're enduring a St. Louis summer. Cash & credit cards accepted. Speedy service.
Ted Drews specializes in frozen custards referred to as 'concretes' because they're quite thick. You can combine any number of mix-ins to customize the creamy and super-sweet cream base to your satisfaction. They have lots of suggestions to choose from or create your own.
This is definitely a local favorite and a great idea to try during a St. Louis summer!”
“I live in NC so won’t have the opportunity to go to this store, but I highly recommend buying on their website! I became obsessed with a crazy expensive Bunny Williams lampshade and this is the Only place on the internet where I could get it shipped for free (over $175 ships free) Thank you so much for offering this to customers!”
“I stopped in to look for gifts, and they have some really cute cards! There are also candles, children's toys, artisan soaps, and other trinkets. I bought several items and the recipients were happy.”
“The spotted pig is the place to go for all o f the things! They have everything from decor, jewelry, tableware, skin care, and the cutest, most unique gifts! If you’re near by you MUST stop in, you will not be disappointed.”
“I enjoyed this gift shop- lots of cool items, like a 3-D printed dragon, and many fancy scarves. (Out of my budget, but enjoyable to look at).
The shop feels a bit hidden, on a lower floor, near the cafe. Great selection. Check out the sale area if you’re in a budget. Many great books and gift items. Staff were friendly and knowledgeable.”
“This location made sure the arrangement was just right for my Mother’s birthday delivery! Thank you so much Ilya for your personable, understanding, and kind service! You made my Mom’s day, which is priceless. I truly appreciate it. I will definitely order again from this location in the near future.”
“Excellent arrangements. They had a few options ready to purchase. And lots of idea if you order in advance. It was very clean. Nice staff. Delivery options too. Everything look awesome hard to decide.”
“My husband and I each made a Turkish
lamp in the class run by Raya. She was fantastic and she made it so easy for us from start to finish. This is a great experience and we highly recommend it!”
