Urban Matter is a Tower Grove treasure trove. Located in the heart of the South Grand shopping and dining district, Urban Matter is a local, women-owned small business with something special for everyone who visits! Ten pictures are far too few to showcase this shop's beautifully curated collection, but these are a handful of our favorites. My husband and I were especially drawn to the honey, tea, fruit spreads, seasonings, and kitchenware; we are foodies after all. Bundle up to support Urban Matter this week, and be sure to give yourself plenty of time to browse. There's a lot to shop!

Mary and her staff have always been welcoming and helpful with every visit my daughter and I have made to her store.I visit every time I come to St. Louis from Albuquerque, NM. It is a must stop for visitors to the area. Extremely happy to support local businesses such as Urban Matter.

This place is SO CUTE. We were eating brunch across the street and spotted it so of course had to check it out. They have such a fun, welcoming, and clean aesthetic. We love the local feel of a lot of their goods. They had an amazing, progressive kids section in the back that we were obsessed with. They have all kinds of goods - fresh perfumes and colognes, jewelry, incense, cooking tools, cocktail accessories, glass, fun stickers. It was so hard leaving there without spending a ton of money. It's a great spot to buy gifts for people. We were in there for at least 20 minutes just looking at everything. Such a cool place and we'll definitely be back.

A great store for exploring! Jewelry, incense, socks, journals, everything a girl could want. Great place to pick up a gift for someone special.

Racist. The older woman that works there (on the women and children’s side) followed me and my boyfriend and our child around the entire store. Literally. Once we went to check out and leave, she came up to us as we were leaving and asked where a book was that we’d been carrying around. She asked me to show her where it was set down and said “do you know where it was left?” I had set it down RIGHT where we picked it up from initially. I pointed it to her and we left. I knew she thought we were stealing from the start when she followed us around the entire store.

Whenever I need a gift for someone and I'm not sure what exactly to get, I come here. They have such a wide variety of unique things here. They literally have something for everyone. Every time I come here, I have to stop myself from buying everything in the store! The staff is super friendly and helpful as well.

I'm a former St. Louisan and wanted to buy a gift when visiting, so I thought I'd try Urban Matter (past experience meant I knew this neighborhood would have lots of eclectic shops). Urban Matter is actually two shops a few doors apart. I was able to find several unique items made in St. Louis - including a small ceramic tray depicting Tower Grove Park - and some wonderful original jewelry (which my girlfriend wore to dinner last night). There were tons of other great items to choose from. Highly recommended!

I was in town looking for a gift for my friend and I stop in this store. I was looking at some earrings and I asked how much for them. The person behind the counter look bother that I asked how much the earrings was with a deep sigh. After that, it made me feel very uncomfortable to support a business like this. Maybe that person had a bad day or something but don't act like you want to be there.
