“Great Neck ought to be grateful for this jewel of a store. Its selection of carefully curated oddities and necessities make it the best gift store in a wide radius. Where else can you find hand-bound note books as well as fine Japanese and Chinese earthenware? There’s something to be found within any budget. And while there’s no substitution for the physical store, the online experience is superb as well.”
“Went here with my friend for a day out. We had so much fun building our terrariums!! We completely lost track of time because next thing we know, it's past closing time haha. But Rachel was so nice about it! She was extremely helpful during the ENTIRE process and helped us complete our terrariums even after closing. We didn't feel rushed at all.
Truly one of the best experiences I've had, doing anything ever. It brought me so much joy. Will definitely be coming back!”

“I was looking for a special gift for my birth mother who I am meeting for the first time. The 3D photo image of me and engraving with the special name she calls me since we started talking came out beyond my expectations! As an artist myself I can say I am definitely impressed with the details, I have a feeling my birth mother will love it just as much as I do! I also got two keychain versions for my birth siblings! Amazing customer service…thanks Oriel!”

So grateful to have this experience and will absolutely be back again!”

“How lucky was I when I discovered Jeannine and her beautiful store Jeannine’s Gifts in Rockville Centre, NY. The merchandise/products she carries are uniquely embellished making the item one of a kind. You can find that perfect gift for the person that has everything. I ordered a beautiful pink welcome baby basket. Items in the basket were monogrammed and the assortment was well curated with beautiful items for a newborn baby girl. I have also ordered monogrammed glassware for anniversary gifts. In addition, she has gorgeous monogrammed silk PJ and robe sets. Thank you Jeannine for you attention to detail. I cannot wait to hear how my recipients loved their gifts from your store!!”

“Cute little hidden store. This is a great place to pick up things for a present for a mom, girl-friend, or grandmother. They have tons of those little signs girls seem to love that have positive sayings hand painted onto them. They also have Candles, and clothing items. Store has a surprising amount of stuff considering the size, and is well organized. Smells great and has a nice vibe.”

“Nice organized little store. Woman who was working there was pretty helpful. I went on a Sunday morning so there was plenty of parking but on the weekdays I can imagine parking could be a bit bad around there. It's all street, metered parking there.”

“I can't say I agree with the last reviews. I ignored them and went up there instead because I did need some emergency supplies. I was greered and welcomed as soon as I walked in lol there are 3 Hispanic ladies they were helping others too, there was one standing by the door & 2 by the counter (witch is normal) The one that was by the door usually helps you look for stuff lol they're not watching you. Maybe you think they're watching you because you where really trying to steal! Idk what dummy would steal from a spirtual shop lol But I didn't get that vibe from them. I got everything that I needed, she even offered to order me something that they did not have in stock. I will definitely be back when I come to New York again!”
“2/25/25 came in today to pick up a dozen “donuts” they are literally the best thing! I called the store direct and they were ready for the time I asked ! Very nice staff”
