Purrgatory is the cutest cat-themed shop, and they have a really unique selection of cat treats, toys, and merch throughout. I love that they have things like hats, totes, stickers, and other gifts targeted for cat parents (which can be SO hard to find). At the front of the shop, you'll even see cats/kittens that are available for adoption. I highly recommend stopping by if you're a cat lover!

They even have adoption events if you are looking to adopt a cat/kitten. The staff is all very helpful and will help you find whatever you are looking for. I got a fridge magnet, a toy, and a stuffed animal that reminded me of my cat. ‍ My cats will snuggle with it and love the toy I got them! I think that this store has a lot of unique items that you can't find elsewhere. I think for what I got, it was fairly priced. I love what I got at the Purrgatory and had an amazing experience! I will definitely be back! If you are looking for a gift for someone who loves cats, this is your place!

They have so many cute items for gift giving... so keep that in mind when you need a traditional gift shop to explore. I was on my Stationery Store finding activity (per usual) back in early March, and I happened upon this spot. Great selection of greeting cards and pens. The artist E. Francis merchandise, lots of cute Culinary items, and things for babies, etc. Staff was so friendly and helpful we spoke of many Stationery events and I promised to return during the San Diego Bookstore Crawl. Respectfully Reviewed.

Adorable & Memorable Date Spot!…read more While visiting Old Town, my boyfriend took me to Toby's Candle & Soap Shop and it ended up being one of the cutest memories of our trip! I'm so glad he brought me here, but I sure wish I had taken more photos because the inside is so beautiful and peaceful. We got to dip our own candles in different color wax (so fun!) and picked up some of the best-smelling incense I've ever found -- and everything was super affordable! Amazing service, awesome prices, and the vibes were unmatched. Honestly can't wait to come back the next time I'm in San Diego!

I love creating custom sand wax and dipped candles! Going for each season to make different sand wax candles is so fun. Such a unique activity to do during a visit. They have delectable scents for their candles as well. Not only do they have candles, but they have shower steamers, soaps, room fragrances, etc. Great place for family activities, visiting tourists, gift shopping, and more!

Everything is completely unique and you'll find something new in every corner. I could honestly spend hours in here looking at all the unique pieces. It's definitely in a hip neighborhood in Ocean Beach and the entire store reflects that. Its location is in a great spot with lots of restaurants within walking distance. There's also a kids corner in the back where children can play with the stuffed animals and draw on the chalkboard, which is a cute addition to the charm of the place. The owner, Aaron, is incredibly nice and it's always great to have conversation with him. He owns and works the store and is very passionate about building community within the artists and neighborhood! There is lots of street parking in front of the shop however it does get crowded during peak hours. I would highly recommend coming here and seeing what they have to offer!

Vervor shop is a nifty store selling many local art pieces that you can rarely find anywhere else…read more Pros: The staff here are very welcoming and helpful. The amount of items they are selling are very unique in style which makes it a great spot to find hidden treasures and art for your home or office. I got a real cool art piece of the La Jolla shores painted on a raised board. Pictures of the art piece to come soon on my wall. It's a small shop but packed full of great finds for anyone looking for cool pieces! The owner is really kind and welcoming! There is also a nice dog who lives next door who likes to say hi! Cons: Parking is tough as it's only street parking. It is free parking if you're able to find one. There are no bathrooms inside. Proves here are on the more expensive side but makes sense as most of the items they sell are one of kind art pieces or nick nacks. Verdict: I'd recommend this shop to anyone looking for cool art pieces or want to spend a few hours getting lost in the art and nick nacks.

With so much to explore, it did not feel overwhelming. Greeting cards, jewelry, candles, stickers, cute incense holders, loose-leaf tea, honey, and heart-shaped wooden spoons, among other things, were available. I wanted to purchase the entire store but restrained myself. I purchased three stickers and a heart-shaped wooden spoon, which cost $21.55. The stickers I bought ranged from $3 to $5. This is on the lower end compared to other stickers I've purchased from different establishments. The staff was friendly. We found free street parking around the corner and plenty of other stores to walk to. I recommend this place, especially since Christmas is in a month!

The Lady who was working the day we went in was really sweet and offered us samples of gummies from Switzerland. She also informed us that all the plants were on sale for 20% off. In the back room, my dad and I found some Lemon Lime Maranta plants and wanted to purchase them, but we didn't know much about them. Luckily the Lady was a wealth of information and we felt pretty reassured that we were well-informed, so we bought them! Mine has been thriving, so you know they know how to care for their plants! I want to go back to look around again.
