Wow...the aesthetics in this shop are incredible...a stucco wall, a brick wall and a perfect complement of ambiance illumination and stunning displays coax even the most reserved shopper in for a delightful dalliance with bling and fun...for a song...seriously great pricing! The buyer for this shop knows her stuff and the display genius is equally brilliant but even with the affordable and glorious offerings, if the staff weren't great, I'd have no interest. The staff here are some kind of wonderful. They are so helpful and so down to earth. I can honestly say that I've never encountered a fashion assistant/accessory expert who was less than stellar in this shop. This is my favorite accessory boutique and NO, I have no personal or vested interest in this shop. I just love grand and this shop is grand....a wonderful small business offering wonder!

UNFORTUNATELY THIS STORE IS NOW CLOSED (Sigh)!…read more Cute little shop for accessories, especially if you like a bit of glitz. I thought the prices were very reasonable - I bought a cute purse for $27, an unusual scarf for $14, and a very unique bracelet for $11. I think my best friend will love this place - so I got her a gift certificate.

Found our silly specific party ornaments with ease and found a few extra stocking stuffers as well. The space has expanded since I was last here which is so exciting to see.

Went shopping there today and was swindled out of $10 by the woman at the counter! Picked up a…read moresweet vintage sweater that was marked $10, put it up at the counter with some other things (so I could shop hands free) and kept wandering for a bit. After perusing a while longer I went to check out. Was told the total was $31 and some change..... I was so confused and asked how (the real price should have been $21 something) so she goes on to say "oh yeah the sweater is $20, that's $10 and half off and those are so and so and so and so". Well, that's odd - I thought.... But I wanted the sweater so I just paid to get out of there. (Paid cash like an idiot and didn't get a receipt ) Got to my car to check the price tag on the sweater and what do ya know?? She took it every other price tag was still intact on every other item I purchased (as I know some antique stores save the tags for the separate vendors to keep track) so now it's double Hinky!! I'm bummed I didn't go back in and ask to see the tag but what can I do now. Oh well, live and learn. Hang onto your items if you shop here otherwise you're liable to fall prey to the age old switcharoo!

I'm glad that I did because this is a very nicely curated antique shop with a little vintage thrown in here and there for good measure. As far as pricing went I felt it was pretty reasonable for the most part. What really made the experience all the better though was the absolutely friendly shopkeeper who was working at the time. They were nice to everyone they interacted with and we had a nice conversation while I was perusing. I didn't leave with anything but I saw a couple of things I might come back for.

My boyfriend and I were in downtown Geneva checking out some of the shops before dinner when I…read morenoticed there was a plant store. I am so happy I found this place! Their plants look really healthy and they have an amazing selection. I had been looking for a scindapsus pictus (often called a satin pothos, but I learned while I was here that it's not actually a pothos). The nurseries I'd been to never had one and so I was pleasantly surprised they had quite a few to pick from! Laura was super helpful and kind! They have a really pretty setup. They sell adorable decor and plant pots as well. As someone who is new to plants, I appreciated Laura's expertise and advice. She answered all my questions thoroughly. I was advised that I could buy soil for my plants from them in the future whenever I need to repot. She gave me a plant card with information on how to care for my plant at checkout. I also joined the plant points program. I live kind of far but will drive out here again to buy another plant, soil, or anything else I may need in the future! If you're a plant person, you must visit GROW Geneva.

I stopped by with a friend when I was in town, and I hadn't been to their new location. This one is…read moreso much bigger than their old shop, so it's great to see that they're doing well. They have a good mix of common and more rare plants, and prices are reasonable for the most part. Their $5 Saturday in store and online plant special is always a good deal (the day I went it was a 4" peperomia frost in store and a 4" lipstick plant online). Their new store has more homewares, jewelry, and gifts/trinkets than their previous location, since this one has more space. They had some cute things. Definitely a fun place to browse, and for plant-lovers like myself it's extremely hard to walk out empty-handed.

This is a great store that exudes love for Chicago everywhere. You'll find some stuff local to…read morethese far west suburbs as well, but a lot of the stuff has Chicago-specific themes to it (for instance, the Chicago flag). They have t-shirts, blankets, coasters, glasses, hats, wall art... you name it, you might find it. It's a great place for Chicago souvenirs or just for those who love the city (and most people around here love their city) and its environs to find something for themselves. I saw some things that looked familiar and that's because they were from Tori Grace Outfitters, a local artist whom I love (check out her Chicago icon pajamas, they're great!). The place is super packed but we were able to navigate well enough with strollers. But being packed to the gills just means it's that much more likely you'll find just the thing you're looking for. I ended up with a Swiftie t-shirt for my kiddo because my friend handed it to her and then she would not part with it. The employees were friendly and talkative, and one of them I think was the owner. I liked the store a lot and as I said, it's a great place for souvenirs. I don't live close to Geneva but that's the only reason I wouldn't shop here. If I had known about the place before I went home a few weeks ago, I probably would have visited because I was looking for a place to get some souvenirs for my friends kids, and may keep them in mind for the next visit home for exactly that reason.

Have to go down two sets of steps to get to the door, then back up stairs to the main level... overall I think we climbed up and down six sets of stairs, and we didn't even go to the highest level of the building! And this is using a cane: I think if you had a wheelchair you'd be out of luck, unless there is a hidden elevator somewhere. Their stock really hasn't changed much in a long time, so I guess between that and the fact that I can't get around the shop easily this just isn't the place for me.
