    It had things that you saw in the museum but less expensive and usually they were replicas. All in all great place to be.

    Very cool place! Fine arts paradise; beautiful exhibits from Latin America, China, Japan, Ghana, Bali and early America. Absolutely an experience to be have! And is free on Thursdays! After 5PM parking is also free!

    I enjoy coming to the shop for the best unique gifts. Their team curates an excellent selection of gifts at reasonable prices. I love finding one of a kind gifts for kids in my family here. The retail team were so much fun to shop with, they are knowledgeable and make the shopping experience fun. I was able to find gifts across all sorts of budgets.

    A wonderful book store, truly fantastic. The store is done so well, I love anything they carry with design. Everyone should take a moment to stop in.

    It's okay there are some unique things to shop for at very reasonable prices. It's a fun place for children to find different kind of toys. I do recommend the place wanting something that is one of a kind.

    The experience was decent but the items sold are previously used and extremely over priced. Mainly designer scarves and hand made jewelry. Definitely not something to be overly excited about.

    I love this museum shop! I almost always find a gift or something for my home here. Sometimes they have great jewelry that's related to a visiting exhibit. Check for the sale section too because they have great kids books at a discount most of the time.

    The store is beautiful. Unique selection of books, and jewelry and apparel. The staff is quite awful. I walked in and was not greeted by any of the 5 people standing behind the counter. I walked around trying to find something to catch my eye for about 10 minutes with still no acknowledgement. Went to both jewelry counters TWICE, until I had to ask for some assistance. Over heard them discussing how slow it was even though I was standing right in front them ready to purchase! I still purchased the earrings I loved but I had to let someone know how bad I felt leaving the store. I hope this comment gets to someone who sees the value in great customer service!

    Great stuff here, they renew every week.

    Art bookstores are always great for finding unusual gifts. The MFAH shop includes a great selection of kid's items. Display cases change with each exhibit and are always fresh and have an unusually artistic flair. It's a beautiful bookstore that will ignite your creativity.
