“This place like walking into an old school smoke shop back in the early 90s lady there was super friendly and helpful I will go back and will be recommending this place to others”
“I just discovered this cute little shop & I am in love with it! They are so nice & welcoming! They had everything you need. From sage to crystals & everything in between. Had a tarot reading & that was great! I’m definitely a customer for life. PS they had cute little Christmas ornaments”
“Had a great experience in the store today! So many cute things! Great location too! I’ve come here a handful of times over the years and always left with something. Definitely need to go more often!”
“I can't say enough nice things about this place. It's on my shopping list every Christmas. The hands on service to the free gift wrapping cannot be beat. Definitely worth every penny and then some. Such beautiful merchandise.”
“Lots of neat gift items, unique jewelry and fun gift items and clothing. They also had some nice smelling soaps and lotions. Staff were very friendly and careful wrapping out items”
“I’ve been shopping here since i was in high school, always finding something beautiful and eclectic enough to never buy the same thing as someone else. The owner is amazing, so sweet and welcoming, which is why I’ve always come back to her. Jesse is one of my favorite hidden gems of Manasquan.”
“It's a lovely shop with a large inventory of coastal items. Much of it resembles a souvenir shop more than a boutique and the larger items are pricey. But it's worth visiting to spend some time if you need gifts for the holidays especially.”
“This is a small boutique shop with lots of shore items... Customer service is great..they gift wrap and will special order items for you if they're able. The only downside is parking especially in the summer.”
“Living in Colorado and growing up in New Jersey, I finally found a store that I’m comfortable with. Ordered a hat and it is exactly what was advertised and got it in a reasonable amount of time!”
“Quaint, tasteful notions in a heartwarming and welcoming storefront. Wonderful old-time Leon Redbone jazz recordings playing in the background add to the lovely ambiance. The proprietor is a gentleman of the type from a bygone era, patient and charming. Do not miss this gem in Spring Lake!”
“Cassidy at East Meets West in the Ocean County Mall helped me have the best shopping experience I’ve ever had at that particular store, and yes, of course I am older and have been shopping there since EMW opened in the mall forever-ago; however, I am pretty confident that nobody who has ever helped me there has displayed such a sincere and appreciable degree of enthusiasm. I told her I was going to pick up a couple of items and maybe she could think of a recommendation based on what I already enjoyed and was about to purchase. Well, lol, for one thing, there was no hesitation, lol again, and instead of saying, “Oh, you’ll probably like this one,” and pointing at it from across the store, she smiled and wanted to help. I was honestly surprised by her reaction, and the immediate action she took by walking me over to the product she was recommending. I guess it was just fun to see someone who looked happy to be working, to be helping someone. Thanks, Cassidy, your efforts are appreciated.”

“I have been very picky where my bird houses are represented. When I walked into the shop, looked around, spoke to Heather, and realized she wouldn't just take in anyone's products for a sale, I knew it was for me. Definitely should be a stop for you if you like quality, hand made or unique goods.”

And her store has all kinds of great products. SHE, her staff & family are consistently friendly & helpful. Thanks Pam & team.”
“Beautiful store. The two women that work here (I believe the owners) are sweethearts, kind and helpful. I found a lamp, windchimes, and plenty of seahorse items. We will be sure to stop in for every visit! Please start shipping :)”
“I love this boutique. It is always clean, and welcoming. They have the best staff and are always prepared for the crazy summer rush of people. The fitting rooms are always clean. I recommend this place to everyone!! Especially people looking for a gift or some merch to bring back home.”
“A lot of fun but way too many restrictions. No beach after 7…. I thought it was a public beach? Security guards have guns and police do not….. fun atmosphere, very hot today but the boardwalk was nice with the breeze off the Atlantic…”
“Saved the day! Placed an order online and that was not delivered via another company on time and as promised. I called this location since it’s local to the recipient and Maria was so friendly and kind and 2 hours prior to closing she promised to deliver a fruit tray and a ballon. She did just that, not only did she put together a wonderful arrangement and delivered it she was also so honest and applied a discount and didn’t try to rip me off since I was in a pickle. I am so thankful there are truly wonderful people out there who care about customers and customer service and will be calling this store direct to place any future orders! Thanks again!”
