The cosy shop offers so many of the little things you've always looking for so badly when you need…read morea birthday present, but don't know what to buy. Additionally, you can actually sit down here and get a barista coffee and deliciously looking cakes. The products in the store are not usual domestic household stuff. The buying agent of that store has an eye for the exceptional. You find all that you might need for a household: Boxes, sheets, cups... But any of those are very particular and special. Let me give you an example and talk about the cups. They are very simple, white with one word written into it. Everybody knows those way too colourful cups with stupid sentences on them... That's not what you find here. The white cups are made of porcelain and the one word on it is enough to say a lot... You find "princess" and other normal words, but also very particular ones like like #fml or slut and slave. (Just look at the pictures, others did - when I got there, taking pictures inside was forbidden). The blankets are made out of wool and done really well - the ones that mothers pass on to their children and to last at least a lifetime. Well, they should, as everything in this store is quite pricy - but also valuable and seems to be worth the money. If you want to just enjoy to look at the beautiful things, why don't you just grab a barista coffee and sit down on one of the big wooden tables in the middle of the store. I love stores that are a bit inconvenient and combine a coffee shop with the store - and they did it really well. There's even a table at the entrance so you can look at the street. The inconvenience about the combination is the smell of the things in the store. Well it is not bad like the ones in the stores that sell really cheap stuff, thankfully, because if it's that bad I usually don't even enter. No, this store smells nice, just don't expect an overwhelming coffee scent like usual in a 100%-coffee-store. All in all, I wished I had such a store in my neighbourhood. I would never have to worry getting a really nice birthday present ever again.

Yay! I loved this big store! They sell all kinds of things for your home and I loved almost…read moreeverything. Plus it was all very reasonable priced! What else would you want? The Christmas department, which was the whole first floor and a bit of the second was big, lovely and very Christmassy. I loved it. I bought a few Christmas themed gifts here and the family loved them. Also bought some stuff for myself and am very happy with it and with the prices as well. The kitchen department is lovely as well. If I'll ever go to Dusseldorf again I'll run to this place again! :) Big Fan! (For your information; now don't expect anything extremely special here, its just a department store that I happened to like a lot haha, it no cute boutique or anything but I just loved the products and prices)

Butlers was such a cute store/shop. I'm not sure if they are a chain, I could only guess it was…read more But it was located near a lot of other shops, 2 minute walk from Bonn Central Station. They had such cute merchandise and they all seemed pretty affordable. They had their sale items up front, which was how I found the cutest Snoopy bike bell for $5 Euros. This store is two stories tall but the workers don't really know English. Butlers was also one of the few that asked for my I.D. with my VISA purchase. They didn't offer me a bag nor attempt to ask if I wanted to be charged for one. My cell service went out while in the store though which was weird haha.
