There is a charming little gift shop that recently opened in Crafton. Called "Blue Snail" gift shop…read moreafter a place in France that is known for snails and "blue" because the owner has sons this shop specializes in all US made and quality imported products. I got to interview the owner Jennifer who explained to me that pretty much everything is ordered from a wholesale company and she orders products that are well made. There's much to look at here. From baby gifts, children's and party gifts, pet gifts, scarves made in the UK, bracelets, necklaces in a bottle, cocktail gifts, soaps, bubble bath, candles, greeting cards, prints, soaps, you can practically find most anything you want here. With your purchase, gift wrapping is free. Jennifer is even offering homemade cookies as part of her opening week kickoff. She hopes to expand her business as she gets new ideas but it's a great spot to get something for any occasion or if you wish to indulge yourself. After much deciding I purchased an embroidered bat tea towel and a soap sponge holder to catch my soap bar drippings. The gift shop makes a welcome addition to the Crafton area and is located on E Crafton Ave near Sisters floral and Dancetime studios. Free time limited street parking is available.

Jennifer is absolutely great and her inventory is constantly revolving, bringing fresh, new items…read moreevery time you visit! Everything is so cute, too! From the prints around the edges of the shop to the selection of special books and items from other local merchants, there is something for everyone! I love this shop and will go back again and again!

This was our third time trying to send in for our car title so that we could sell our used car that had been sitting in our driveway for at least 3 years. We noticed on the form that there needed to be a notarization on our signatures, something we hadn't noticed before. When we went to see Maria, she was not only professional and kind, but she was very knowledgeable and pointed out right away that we had been sending in the wrong form. She gave us the right form, watched us sign it and notarized it the same day. We received our car title in less than 10 days. Thank you Maria! I would highly recommend this business.

We are completely disappointed in the level of service that we received for an order that was…read moreplaced for Christmas. We place an order for deliver prior to Christmas - the order was guaranteed to be delivered on December 23. We never received tracking information for the order and reached out to them on December 21. We did receive an immediate response noting that they were unable to log into their system remotely and since it was after hours would get a response to us the next day. CRICKETS - never heard a peep. Reached out again via text on December 24 - CRICKETS! Never heard a peep.... Well, on December 26 we received notice that the order shipped.... Glad they had our money for a week given the credit card was charged when the order was placed; however our gift never arrived to the recipient until after Christmas, and there was zero communication that there was a delay. We at normally not ones to complain publicly about a small business; however do expect communication. Had they reached out to let us know there was an issue, we would have fully understood and been more than happy to explain the situation to the recipient. BUT with no communication we had no idea if the gift was on the way - if it was late - if it would never arrive and we were scammed out of $200. Communication is key! Will never place another order or recommend A Basket of Pittsburgh!

I was excited just to see "Pittsburgh" on the outside of the box... and then I opened it! :) Everything was in pristine condition! The food items were gorgeous, delightfully Pittsburgh themed, fresh, and delicious. The hand-painted wine glass is whimsical and so well done. Additionally, all the other Pittsburgh Penguins gifts were epic. Bottom line, this gift was so thoughtful, fun, warmed my heart, and put a permanent smile on my face! Thank you!

Everything is within walking distance and the valet trash service is great everything is close by, but I don't feel like walking to the dumpsters most of the time. Especially with a heavy bag. This place is very homey and as a young woman living alone, I'm at ease here. I'm considering renewing my lease for the next few years until my work contract in Pittsburgh is over and I return home. Also, props to the maintenance team. I requested their help due to the dishwasher not draining and I got a new dishwasher within the hour. The property managers are also so friendly and welcoming. Love this place so far

Maintenance is wonderful too, they respond promptly to requests. I will say that the water pressure is a little low for my liking but that has honestly been the only issue (and I wouldn't even call it a issue). It's a great place if you have animals, especially dogs! They have a dog park. Neighbors are friendly, the community is very diverse. Parking is great. There's a private trash company that comes and collects trash Sunday- Thursday. The apartment is in a convenient location, it takes me about 15 minutes to get into the city. Your close by a CVS, Giant Eagle, DD, and a variety of food options. There's security at night, so I always feel safe. I hope that as they continue renovating they will eventually have in unit laundry, but the laundry rooms are conveniently placed on each court and are operated by an app. Emerald Gardens was my first apartment, and it has been a wonderful experience!!
