“This is one of my most favorite shops in Media. Always has such unique gifts. Always offers local art artists work. The owners are just wonderful, courteous and helpful and have been involved and committed to the community since opening. If you are looking for that one of a kind gift definitely stop in to Earth and State. Additionally, they will hand wrap your item for you so it is extra perfect.”

I picked out the sea glass bar soap, moon flower sugar scrub, and buttercream moisture cream — all of which smelled amazing and felt thoughtfully crafted. The staff was incredibly kind and helpful, making the whole visit feel warm and welcoming. This place is a gem in Philly — I’ll definitely be back!”
“Love Art Star! I have gotten many great presents as well as things for myself. They did move to the Independence Visitor Center at 599 Market Street which is not yet reflected here as of my review.”
“Some of the items can seem a little pricey, BUT I still go here whenever I need a last minute gift or a little something for someone - especially for a baby! There are so many adorable, unique gifts and trinkets. Some of my favorite home decor items are from here. And they're always the ones people comment on when they visit.
You'll find yourself walking around and saying "wow, {insert friend's name} would love this," every time you turn around. If you're in Mannyunk you definitely need to check this place out!”

“My 2nd time here and won’t be the last. I wound up spending way more on Black Friday but got so many gifts unexpectedly. It was so much fun shopping here. All the workers are great and pleasant. Even offered to wrap a gift. Last but not least, the “homemade cookies “ were amazing. I must have had about 5. Thanks for a great store.”

“Walking into Hello World Modern Mercantile was such a visual delight! I had first read about the store online where information found on the website suggested shopping in person would offer the fullest selection. So true! There is an immense array of gift items waiting to be discovered, so much so that I walked around the store several times. I did not want to overlook anything. The staff are terrific, and the store is an easy walk from 30th Street Station. Be sure to check it out!”

“Excellent Customer Service and Fresh, Delicious Products!
I recently placed an order with Edible Arrangements and, unfortunately, the initial delivery didn’t meet my expectations. However, I was incredibly impressed with how this location handled the situation. Customer service was outstanding from start to finish. Not only did they rectify the issue promptly, but someone from their team personally reached out to ensure I was satisfied with the resolution.
They went above and beyond to make things right, which truly shows how much they care about their customers. The replacement arrangement was beautifully done, fresh, and delicious. Mistakes can happen, but it’s how a company responds that really counts, and they exceeded my expectations.
Highly recommend them for quality and top-notch service!”
