This is actually one of my favourite gift shops, on parr with favourites in Warwick, Brewood,…read moreBridgnorth and Middlewich- I like eclectic shops that are mazes, the host other shops within them. There's a lovely cafe in the back, and a real range of things- from quality homewares, to clothes, and children's toys- with a really nice selection of cards and wrap too. I do like coming here on the run up to Christmas, as there are always lovely gifts and really beautiful decorations. It has been reduced in size slightly, but it's still a well tetris-ed expanse. I would be very shocked if you didnt find something you loved.

This has been reduced in size tremendously, I suppose rents must be high. It takes up about half…read morethe space it used to, and most of the first floor is a good restaurant that I'd review if I could remember the name. Downstairs is mainly great kids toys, gifts, fancy goods and such, but at the back now is a very nice delicatessen/fancy food place, that does good chocolates, olives and the like. There are two nice women's clothes boutiques in the other half of the old shop. In fact Yarm as a whole has had a boom in little fancy boutiques in recent years. Perhaps this explains why Strickland and Holt has had to reduce its size. Shame Stockton couldn't head in that direction too. Or is it possible to fit in another pound shop?

It was an older man and it wasn't the owner, he also seems a bit seedy and was vaping inside the store. Everything is ridiculously priced up and there isn't many affordable things. £60 for a tshirt!?!? There is a good-ish selection but other than that

The guy working behind the counter was horrible, I went in to buy the directions and he told me it…read morewas £5 each when it's 2.50 on ebay with shipping. I've never seen it so expensive and had bought it in this shop for cheaper before, so I asked about the price and he told me something along the lines of "buy it online, itll be the only place you can get it when I close down thanks to people like you" and thanks for "wasting his time." Appaling customer service. Thanks for wasting MY time with your shitty attitude and prices. Also, the owner feelt the need to pose as a customer in the comments of this same review, which I posted to their facebook page in order to defend their actions. Just awful customer service and attitude all round.

Also info about the War and Victorican era. There is also an interactive section for kids. They also have a small cafe, which sells a selection of drinks and snacks.

Staff are great and attentive, very reasonably priced considering most cafe 'tea houses' will charge you almost £10 for a sandwich now. Food was made fresh and I would prefer going here to many other places in Middlesbrough for a light bite to eat or tea with my friends.

I ordered from this place back in September 2023 for a friend's birthday and what I ordered and…read morewhat they delivered were two very different things. I had ordered purple, blue and white coloured flowers in a vintage looking watering tin and what they delivered was a cheap looking aluminum watering tin with a tacky looking "happy birthday" sticker slapped on crooked with ugly pink flowers that looked like something I could have bought at the supermarket but I let that go with them. Then I ordered from them for Mother's Day with delivery scheduled for Mother's Day but they delivered on Saturday instead and again the flowers looked cheap and nothing like what I ordered. I contacted them about the fact that I had needed the flowers delivered on Mother's Day and that is what I had scheduled and that is what was on my confirmation but all they had to say to me is that I didn't pay them an extra £4, which I did not see anywhere...not on the website or on the confirmation, and made it out like I was cheap and that it was my fault. I would have absolutely paid whatever they wanted as I obviously wanted them delivered on Mother's day but they did not care at all. This is a terrible florist with terrible people and I will never order from this place ever again. *See the emails below so you can see exactly what kind of people they are

Never have I come across such an unprofessional service. Would not recommend this company DO NOT BUY FROM THEM.
