“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.”
“Newtown HQ, you have my heart <3 This store is so lovely and has such a wide collection of all cute things I want to gift and buy for myself haha
I came on my birthday to get a couple of blind boxes and was obsessed with the ones the owner recommended. Such sweet hospitality, felt so welcoming. Will be back soon!”
“Lovely little shop in Greenpoint! They had a wide selection from local artists. Absolutely loved all the pottery and jewelry. The store worker was very friendly and knowledgeable. It's also right by a subway line, so easy to get to if you don't live in the area.”
“I got a gift that I need to get a credit for cause I wanted to exchange it. They were very helpful very genuine very real. Had an amazing experience. Very happy place to be.!”
“Very cute gift shop! Perfect if you are looking for unique souvenirs, or small gifts. They have clothing, beautiful cards, art books, candles, puzzles and more focused on Harlem and black American culture.”
“Very appropriately named. A totally wicked awesome gift shop and home store. Not just a shop with cool stuff and great gift and home ideas but it has a soul too. Your not just in the store with staff glued to their phone and annoyed to have to interact with You, no this is a rare shop where u can get personal attention and have questions answered and get real sincere assistance which is great when looking for a gift for someone. This is a Family store and it is a true ally to the whole community always active and involved in supporting and enriching this community. Thank You Awesome and I

“I discovered this shop on a casual stroll and I was introduced to the Bleu Torch Fragrance Collection. As a lover of grounding scents, I have found several new scents that quickly became my favorites. Since my initial purchased, I’ve returned twice for them! Karlon, thank you. He’s attentive and very knowledgeable. Go and see Karlon for your next favorite scent.”
“Those who say this store is “right wing” are very mistaken. They treat everyone respectfully regardless of observance or religion. All the staff were friendly and very helpful. Wonderful selection of books. I found everything I needed.”
“When I need a mood “pick me up” this is just the place. What a wonderfully curated & special store to just browse. Every single time I have stopped in, whether I need something or not, I leave with a package! But when you do need a gift, she truly always has just the right special, thoughtful, something you didn’t even know you were looking for. It is shops like this that sets neighborhoods apart & I love to have Saint Seneca close by! The owner is lovely to work with and so helpful if you need a little inspiration as well in your gifting.”

“My favorite place! I go here often, they have the best home, style, and paper products. The staff is super nice and always has treats for dogs. My dog loves it there and runs to the door when I say we are going to the store.”
“Stopped in here yesterday. A nice selection! I bought a beautiful pair of silver, green labradorite earrings! The shopkeeper was kind enough to polish the silver before we left. He advised me on nickel-free options, the origins of pieces and when items I was seeking would be restocked. (Tashi Delek, Sonam!)”
“Lovely gift shop filled with fun and cute items, they have a little bit of everything: home goods, beauty, accessories, fancy teas, candles, greeting cards and some local Ridgewood themed gifts perfect for guests visiting!”

“As always satisfied with this business, pawn shop, buyers of all types of iPhones, all phones, electronics, heavy tools, jewelry etc. This is the 3rd IPhone I sell to Big Boy Buyers BBB. I shopped around( Gazelle and other internet sites etc) to sell my old iphone 6s. And as always these brothers pay top dollar, Got my money on the spot. I liked that he asked how much I wanted and I basically asked what's the going price.? I was really surprised that he was fair and honest. I left feeling great. So people.... it's a convenient spot.... #7 train on the corner... by car it's between Roosevelt Ave & 103rd and 39th Avenue....... I also noticed some beautiful earrings and rings for sale as well as heavy machinery( drills) etc. Stop!! Messing with those other guys and go to Big Boy Buyers to pawn/sell your Iphones. M. Correa”
“Great store! The two lovely ladies were super sweet, I went shopping for Valentines gifts and they were so kind to set my bags to the side so I can shop and walk around freely”
“I love the new Lockwood, while the old ones were small and cute, this one has so much more space and a larger selection. It has a stationary dept, clothing dept and housewares. I know it is branded as a gift shop, BUT, its def catered heavily towards New Yorkers like myself.”
“Extremely difficult to go here and not buy something or several things. Unique collection of highly curated items for the house, a gift, or pretty much any occasion. Holiday shopping wouldn’t go anywhere else: love the owners”
“Love the beautifully crafted products. Discovered One Million Roses at Bryant Park Winter Village - would be great if the online shop had products available for purchase.”
“I had a great experience at Edible Arrangements in Elmhurst!
The store is clean, welcoming, and the staff is very friendly and helpful.
Everything looks fresh, colorful, and beautifully prepared.
Their chocolate-dipped fruit is delicious, and they have a great selection of gifts for birthdays, holidays, thank-you gifts, or any special occasion.
I also like that they offer fresh fruit snacks you can grab on the go.
Highly recommend this location if you’re looking for something fresh, tasty, and nicely presented!”

“This spot has so much magic: palo santo, balms, little tinctures, and so much stuff that naturally elevates your mood. Their prices are very reasonable too, so thankful it’s in the neighborhood ? also Les, Jay and Reggie (and the team) are so nice I need to shout them out bc it really feels like a Neigborhood spot”
