Me and my wife had just finished eating at one of the restaurants, and wanted to walk around and see the stores. The cashier at this store was a very rude.My wife was recording a small, 5 second video of the store for her small social media account and the lady told my wife she could only post the video as long as she put the store’s name to give credit. To be honest, we felt a bit disrespected by her attitude and tone, as customers, to have the cashier tell us that. We were going into your store because we were interested in the shop and items for sale not to just make a quick video and leave.We were both not happy with the cashier’s attitude and left immediately, probably won’t come back ever again either because of how the cashier was trying to convince us to buy a sweater by yelling across the store to my wife that had made nice comments about it.

Ivas boutique was absolutely adorable and delightful. The workers there were sweet and helpful. Beautiful selection of baby clothing as well as handmade Jewelry. I bought some earrings and a darling piggy doll.The store was beautiful and appealing to the eye! I also love the sense of community the small businesses have with each other, you can really care about each other.Each shop recommended each other and I couldn't help but stop at each place and it was wonderful. Cute date idea, if you have a free morning or afternoon. The alley on bitters is a wonderful stop. Food, wine, shopping all in one place. They have plenty of outdoor patio areas to sit and talk.

I stopped in looking for things to gift my friend’s daughter and for housewarming gifts for another friend. I was greeted by Michelle who was very kind and seemed genuinely interested in helping me. She assisted me in finding some of the cutest and most unique baby clothes. This shop has A LOT of unique finds so it’s easy to overlook something. Michelle helped me find several awesome baby gifts as well as beautiful housewarming gifts. In addition to all of that I couldn’t help but grab some beautiful everyday jewelry for myself. I’ve received so many compliments on my jewelry I’ll be going back for more. Highly recommend for unique and lovely finds.

Today my friend and I stopped at the Alley on Bitters (formerly named Artisans Alley) to try out the Bread Box and afterwards we happened upon Iva Style. What a wonderful and unique shopping experience! The staff was so personable (without being intimidating or intrusive) from the minute we walked in. It felt like we had been friends forever. Our four young boys were with us and they were treated like family too. The sweet sales person stooped down to eye level to my youngest (age 3) and gently took the time to explain to him ‘why’ he should not touch the guitar that was propped against the wall (not just admonishing him for touching it - good teachable moment done with love and respect). Then she followed that up by giving him (and the other kids) a coloring book! What a darling thing to do! The store was covered in unique artwork, jewelry, accessories and finds you don’t see in other places. I enjoy a colorful whimsical aesthetic, it was like walking into HAPPY LAND! And oh! my! gosh! The baby & children’s clothes are to die for! What a perfect place to come for a gift! We learned about some new womens athleisure & womens clothing items she has in the works. I will be absolutely be back to check them out. They do carry an extensive collection of Meileg dollhouse items. This makes me wish I was 5 again. Our little ones were in wonder (as I was) taking in the experience of the store, but were very careful to look and not disturb. I know it’s so difficult to keep a boutique going in this day and age were people want to buy everything online, but what would we do if we didn’t get to actually see and enjoy these treasures in person any more? What fun would life be then? I think it’s important to visit your local businesses and help out where you can. We learned Iva Style is also a woman owned business, and I commend her for making it through Covid. Hopefully the rest of the Artisans Alley will soon come back to life. It does look like its had a few hits but WE all carry some economic power to help bring these fun places back to their former glory. Its a perfect place to go have a girls day (my husband enjoys too) without having to drive all the way to Boerne or Fredericksburg. They have a wine bar where you can get a charcuterie board some other shops that are truly gems, like a balloon specialty shop! Definitely check out The Alley on Bitters.

My best friend, my son (2), and I went to Bread Box for brunch over the weekend. I was so excited when I happened upon this shop. It is so adorable and the products and brands inside are the style and brands we already have in our home for him. The lady working was extremely rude to us repeatedly. And even worse, there seemed to be quite a few things that were “display only” - cute toys that my son wanted and I would’ve bought. We were told repeatedly not to touch anything in a certain area even though we hadn’t touched anything. It just gave off Pretty Woman vibes. If you want quality clothes and toys WITH GOOD CUSTOMER SERVICE, stick to Nursery Couture in Stone Oak for cute clothes, decor, and toys and Whole Earth Provisions at the Quarry for toys.

This little shop was fabulous!! A tastefully decorated and designed boutique, the owners obviously put a lot of thought and care into their wares. They have all sorts of rare and beautiful trinkets, clothing, decor, and jewelry. High quality products and at reasonable prices! There is something here for everyone. 10/10 would recommend.

This is one of the most unique stores in San Antonio- beautiful clothes- accessories and unique decor items and art that you can't find anywhere else in this area. The sales people are always helpful and friendly. My sister and I spent at least an hour exploring the shop yesterday and speaking with Karen. You don't get that kind of attention anywhere else
