Best places: Gift shops in (Old) Ottawa, Canada

🫤 Really disappointed in the new locaion. Only a fraction of the books they had before, too much homeware. Kids selection is miniscule. It was hard to find something. Only one child managed to get a book. I didnt find much for myself so left empty-handed. My husband went the week before Christmas and...

🫤 Although I have been a satisfied customer for the last 40 years, I am always surprised to see that the store interior is dirty, from the stained floor tiles to the accumulated dust on shelves and about the cash registers and some of the computer terminals. The walls, both inside and outside have no...

👍👍 I had a problem with the chocolates my husband gave me for Christmas - he bought the wrong box. The box could not be exchanged so the manager helped me pick out some of the chocolates that were in the box I wanted, and very kindly, did not charge me. I have been there many times and have also done...

House-designed arrangements, terrariums & locally made gifts like soap in a basic brick storefront.

🫤 Wrote a beautiful card that was not included. Also paid for upgraded bouquet and 1/4 of flowers were not in great shape. Wouldn’t buy from here again.

👍👍 I ordered a bouquet for my mother and they are the freshest and most beautiful flowers I have seen. I'm so very impressed! I will definitely come again.

This charming boutique run by twin sisters offers Canadian-made housewares, jewelry & bath products.

👍👍 I’ve been to this shop a few times, my initial and main reasons for visiting the store was to return and exchange singing bowls. Being very indecisive in general, I found that they dealt with my situation very patiently and showed very much kindness throughout my “selection” ordeal when choosing wha...

👍👍 Beautiful flower shop with equally beautiful people! Came here to get flowers for a date. I pointed a few flowers I liked, and they helped me curate a beautiful bouquet based on that. It was affordable and their service was beyond all my expectations! When I came to pick them up on Thursday after w...

🫤 I unfortunately am in the middle of a very frustrating experience with Kindred - I order from them online as I live in Toronto and feel like if I was only shopping in person I wouldn’t have any issues. I ordered 2 shirts on April 3rd and am still trying to deal with Kindred today on getting a refund...

👍👍 I was in the market for a pair of wedding rings, and I’m so glad I came here. The gentleman working when I came in, Beau, was obviously very knowledgeable about jewlery and was a huge help in finding the perfect rings for my partner and me, unlike other stores that overwhelmed me with different, ve...

👍👍 Highly Recommend! This is a lovely store with high quality, beautiful items run by friendly people! I buy a lot of my essential oils here and it's a great place to find unique gifts for friends and family. It also always smells so good in the store!

High-end American retailer known for fine jewelry, china & silver, plus wedding registry.

France-based chain selling skincare, bath & hair products (many made with natural ingredients).

😠 Went in today and there were five employees in the store. So I get in line behind the woman who is currently being served at that point for employees all decide to leave to go on break at the same time leaving only one employee in the store, and people waiting in the line a ridiculous amount of time...

Jewelry chain featuring a variety of necklaces, rings, customizable charm bracelets & more.

😠 Untrained employees , with supervisors who can't care less. When you're buying somthing everyine in store wants to help , when you have a return or exchange altitude changes so quick!

👍👍 Nice place to visit, lots of neat ideas for gifts. I bought a watermelon ice tea. Great price. The Lady was really friendly!

😠 Believe the reviewers who say that the owner is extremely rude. The very fact that the shop has responded to the countless other reviews complaining about the behaviour by claiming that other customers haven't experienced this should tell you everything you need to know about how the owner treats ot...
