Dear Forsythea: While visiting Astoria last week I went into your store for the first time and love…read moreit! So many home and garden ideas and gifts to choose from. Amazing selections and curation. Monica helped me choose a couple gifts for my girls and I plan to stop back in before Christmas to get a few more. Thanks again for all the great ideas, Monica. You're a gem. 5 stars : best shopping experience in Astoria!

The vibes in this store are unmatched. I always come here to buy a card for birthdays and holidays…read more They have a neat selection and they aren't your basic cards. They are priced I think at $6, but for the uniqueness of them they are worth it. The service has always been good and the staff is attentive and welcoming. Love coming here when in Astoria.

Pamela assured me that the piece would be marked Not For Sale and I agreed to pickup in January. Imogen Gallery sold the piece. Untrustworthy gallery and would not support either the artist or the gallery in the future, since it's hard to know who is at fault.

Beautiful gallery! Not to be missed on any shopping trip in Astoria. Incredibly well curated and…read morefresh!

I definitely felt like I was in someone's uber-cool great-grandparent's attic. *bonus point for having a giant "PRAY" sign out front and not showing any signs of bigotry when 4 Seattle queers ascended on the place:)

I'm so happy that I wandered into this shop. It's a great mix of new and used books, postcards, and…read moretrinkets. The shop dog is crazy friendly, and the fireplace was pumping out a solid relax vibe. I snagged a few books and postcards. I'll absolutely visit again the next time I'm in the area.

Saw a sign advertising this shop as we were camping along the peninsula and as Twilight Zone fans,…read moreIMMEDIATELY looked it up and went to visit! If I end up the lone survivor in a nuclear blast I will make sure to pack back up glasses and head there to read, since there will be Time Enough At Last. Its also a very cozy shop, lots of books that grabbed my attention as well as fun totes and stickers. Disappointed to hear from the shopkeeper that not a lot of folks got the reference. Look the episode up folks, its a classic!

Collections of collections like I've never seen. Huge place, with large booths very well-organized…read moreinto products and themes. The amount of glassware alone is insane. They've taken advantage of every square inch of the building, with chairs, art, etc hanging from the ceilings throughout. It's really a fun, interesting place to wander through. I can't speak to service as there was one other customer inside who was speaking with the operator the whole time, so we weren't greeted or addressed as we wandered (we weren't needing help anyway, just checking things out).

Not that I didn't already but I'm sure if your looking for gifts to bring back home or something for yourself, you'll have plenty to choose from here. Don't forget to play putt-putt golf.

A fun little, touristy store with LOTS OF STUFF! Toys, trinkets, key chains, stuffed animals,…read moregames, refrigerator magnets, collectible shot glasses, sunglasses, some neat old-time lunch boxes, and many items that say "Long Beach, WA" on them, the best kind of souvenir. We've been in the store a couple times over the years looking for tie-die t-shirts and hoodies, of which they usually have a great selection. The day we went "finding," we didn't see a single adult size tie-die t-shirt in the whole store (we searched the whole town that day, actually) so will have to try again at some point. The real draw, in my opinion, is the selection of kites. Really good quality too. The nearby beach is the perfect place to fly them too. We usually visit tourist beach towns like Long Beach mid-week when kids are still in school so we've never had an issue with spotty customer service. So many complaints from other Yelpers makes me think you reap what you sow. Many people come in with kids making noise and running all over the place, touching everything, etc. If I were a shop owner or worker I'd get a tad perturbed too. Just saying. Will definitely be going back to Stormin Norman's next time we're in town. ZOLTAR even meets you at the door and can tell your personal fortune for a small fee.

Definitely we preferred Godfather's Books & Espresso than another indie bookstore we had visited…read morethe day before (6/20/25). Disregard the brief Yelp description, this indie bookstore has a vast selection of titles organized by subject/genre (a potential treasure trove) and a variety of merch. The Homie honed in on three books reflecting his interests in military aviation, history, and Chinese cooking. The latter was a great vintage Time Life collection title. I seem to continue my streak of locating unique or sought out titles while on holiday. Last summer it was a French cookbook in Newport, OR. Here in Godfather's cookbook room, I found The Slanted Door. The James Beard winning author/chef had passed away earlier this year and I never received my copy from a TX bookseller via a distributor. Godfather's has that signature indie bookstore vibe, great titles to pore over, and really nice staff who treat both regulars and visitors with genuine warmth. A worthy detour while in Astoria!

Good book selection, cute store but for the service alone. The girl behind the counter set…read moreexpectations they can't lookup inventory which no big deal there but she looked visibly upset to tell it to me. And then when I asked if they had one of their souvenir T shirts in my size she visibly sighed a frustrated exhale. She doesn't seem suited for a customer facing career. Worth it to get books here but try to keep best to avoid trying to interact with the person behind the counter. Hopefully the rest of their staff is competent at bare minimum having a decent attitude when customers walk in. Pretty remarkably off putting vibes. Sad.
