People were trying on clothes and if they didn't put it exactly back she would walk by them and say "people don't know how to put their shit back". She was extremely rude and very passive aggressive. Again I love Lockwood and everything it stands for but she was very unprofessional especially as a worker who I have seen there for a long time.

During COVID-19 as of December 2021:…read more Souvenir is a locally "hidden" shop on the cusp of Greenpoint into Williamsburg. It isn't easily noticed but is located next to a local favorite establishment of mine for matcha. When I eyed this gift shop, they offered various items that I like in comparable higher end gift shops in NYC/Brooklyn: locally made jewelry, glassware, home goods, puzzles, candles, apothecary items, and much more aesthetically pleasing merchandise. I do wish they had more ceramic items like espresso cups and mugs. Overall, they have many fun and beautifully curated merchandise, whether gifting for a family or friend or possibly yourself. The other cool factor about Souvenir is that some of the items sold here, such as their dog toys and leashes, are made ethically conscious and give back to the community when purchased. For that reason, all the better to support a positive woman-owned small businesses. Accepts cash, card, and Applepay. Staff was friendly and more than happy to help. Masks inside. Swipe that card!

The main store has a lot of inks, pens, notebooks, and a big pen/notebook testing table. They had several books of ink swatches. This was really helpful in deciding which ink to buy.

This is the first time I've visited in person (one day after their fabulous Stationery Fest 2026). The main store was smaller than I expected but I didn't feel too cramped and was able to browse leisurely (I visited on a Sunday morning a little after 10am).

I had a wonderful experience taking an iced matcha class at Kettl on Monday! I signed up for the…read moreclass before I got to NY and was able to work it into my busy schedule of being a cool aunt. My brother and I walked around the Greenpoint area and then he had to go pick up his kiddo from camp, so I explored the area then put Kettl into google maps thinking I was coming early for class to avoid the rain. I accidentally went to the wrong location and then it started pouring. The staff told me the other location was 10 minutes away by foot, so I hauled myself to it in pouring rain. Luckily I wore workout clothes and tennis shoes that day, but my raincoat was water resistant, not waterproof, so I got pretty soaked. I still arrived a few minutes early, and the staff let me take some napkins to dry myself off. The class was at the bar in the back of this flagship location. It was set up for two, but I was the only person who showed. Jayanna led me through a very detailed class, provided handouts and a soba tea cookie along with water, and answered a ton of questions I had. As a daily matcha maker, I knew I had a lot to learn. She showed me how to care for the different tools used to make matcha. We made three preparations: sparkling matcha, shaken matcha, and matcha latte. We went through each with various steps and measurements. She demonstrated what to do and then I would make the drinks for both of us. It was a very fun experience and I learned a lot. I also got to shop after the class with a 15% discount, so I got myself a custom single cultivar matcha called okuju made exclusively for Kettl and especially for lattes, and then some individually wrapped fancy tea bags of matcha genmai and hojicha for Eric when he travels. The class had an hour and a half of instruction and I spent a half hour asking about products and shopping. It is a very nice space and I would love to try some of the unique drinks on the menu plus take more classes. If you love matcha and learning, I recommend taking a class here or at the LA location if you are on the west coast!

Kettl is a bit overrated imo. I tried the shirakawa matcha latte, their highest grade for matcha…read morelattes. I thought it was decent, but I feel like it could've been stronger. It also wasn't creamy enough for a latte. The shiso white peach matcha soda was a fun experimental drink, but I feel like for a matcha drink, the matcha flavor was definitely dominated by the shiso and white peach flavors. It was really refreshing though for a hot summer day. Super adorable store! I want to try the matcha tasting one day!

I've been around this cafe so much but had never gone in or considered their coffee before. I'm so…read moreglad I did this time! This is a great shop to search for the right holiday gift. I didn't end up grabbing anything, but I'm still thinking about some of the mugs I saw inside. They have a flower bar at the back which was interesting to me, but I didn't partake this time around. I picked up their hot "Pumpkin, pumpkin latte" and was pleasantly surprised. I wouldn't recommend it to the espresso purist, but I thought it tasted lovely and was perfect for a stroll through Greenpoint on the first snow day in NYC this winter. They also offered some pastries but I'm a butter purist and they were vegan, so I did not partake. This isn't a sit down shop by any means, it's definitely a place to stop in then keep it moving. I see they have a back patio but this wouldn't be the best time of year to explore it.

I'm writing this review because I believe everyone deserves to be treated with kindness and…read morerespect, whether they are a customer or not. We were part of a TV show that was filming next door to this business. They have some benches outside, and I witnessed a situation that really bothered me. An elderly woman was sitting on one of the benches when a woman from the business I'm not sure if she was the owner or an employee came outside and told her, "Sorry, this is only for customers." I understand that the benches belong to the business and they have the right to reserve them for customers. However, I didn't like the way the situation was handled. There are polite and respectful ways to communicate with people, especially an elderly person. I had not gone inside to purchase anything, but after seeing how the situation was handled, I no longer wanted to. You never know who may become a future customer, and the way you treat people matters. For me, this is about attitude and customer service. Kindness should not only be shown to someone after they spend money. Everyone deserves to be treated with respect, especially elderly people. That was my main concern.
