I visited this shop from Chicago a couple of months ago. Had a very friendly conversation with the shopkeeper and bought a gray cardigan which I have worn just about every other day since it was purchased. It is wearing beautifully and it makes me feel cozy and keeps me warm during the cold Chicago winter. Would love to get another one in another color, if possible.

Small store with a small selection but pretty good stuff. I’d go back if I were wandering the area killing time.

Besides everything in the store just being amazing and wish I had all the money to decorate my house with it, the owner is extremely friendly and warm. She helped me out with picking out a really classy rain jacket that I'm very excited to add to my wardrobe

I adore Splendid Avenue. I adore all the things I've gotten there! I have new plates, new bowls, little tiny paintings, a little tiny framed cameo, these amazing note pads, an amazing iron bowl with tiny little feet! I'm always SO glad to go there. Monica is the best! You never know what's new there, and there's *always* something terrific - the best gifts, jewelry, candles, tableware, table linens, candles, but so simple and tasteful! Always worth the time to walk around Gilman Village to visit Splendid Avenue!

Splendid Avenue is a beautiful Swedish boutique in Gilman Village. Monica is the owner and one of the friendliest, warmest cheerful store owners I’ve met. You will find Isle Jacobsen rain boots and jackets, jewelry, dishes, pottery, candles, belts, gorgeous pillow covers, art, scarves, clothing, and throws. This is my favorite shop on the Eastside. I love that this store is located in Gilman village. It’s the most relaxing inspiring experience.

If you're in Issaquah don't miss this store. Maybe you want a small gift or an imported Swedish chocolate or both! You're in luck! If you're a frequent visitor Monica is sure to greet you with lots of enthusiasm! It's sure to brighten your day. Stop by I promise you'll find something you like.

This is my favorite store. Monica is the owner and she is always so fun to go in to see and talk to. I have purchased pillows, chargers (large plates) jewelry, 2 raincoats, 2 pairs of rain boots, pottery, gold metal candle holder, and Christmas decor. I absolutely love this Swedish store. Everything is absolutely beautiful. Monica has a pretty funny sense of humor. She also told me I couldn't purchase the candlestick because it was a sample. We laughed because it's not typical for a store owner to say... you can't buy that. But if you get to know Monica, you'll understand her sense of humor. She's the best. A ball of energy and full of life and creativity. One time I prepaid for boots and she brought them to my house because I was on her way. Really sweet! And when she came in the was able to see my in home studio salon. I tell all of my clients they have to go to this store. It's a gem! Jama Blonde Specialist

My favorite place to shop for decorations for my home and trendy Scandinavian jewelry!! The staff are always wonderful and the shop owner Monika is something special. It is always a treat to come in- you may pop in for the items but you will stay for the atmosphere. The shop always has new fun things that keep me coming back. Highly recommend.

Very friendly owner helped me purchase earrings for my mother's birthday. Would recommend this store to anybody who is looking to buy nice jewelry at an affordable price. Also the other items in the store seemed very nice. I'm sure that if I were to decorate a room, I would purchase most decorative pieces from this store. This store is very cool, one of those "hidden gems".

The owner was very rude to me. The whole time. I finally gave it a chance and pointed out some nice candle holders that I liked. She said "Oh these are samples from my home you cannot purchase these." So she then proceeded to tell me that she will order some. She took my number down and told me she would contact me when they arrived. She never contacted me. I will never come here again.

I love the clothing and home decor here. Everything has a modern Scandinavian style to it. The clothing I have purchased here is so stylish and unique- I always get compliments. This is also my go-to place for birthday presents.
