It is a story with a bad ending for the owner. Lovely store within a a great park space at Uptown Plaza. I had a very teeny tiny issue with a $12 product - probably the least expensive item in this Upscale (trying to be Upscale) store. For some reason the cashier called the owner at her home to discuss what to do. WHAT TO DO !!! ???? She was impatient and offered no help - wanted my cc # or whatever for a very unique product . I left with no credit, no refund, ZIP ZILCH. How about "no worries lets get you something else" THE RESPONSE elicits how a customer feels, responds, and maybe reviews on platforms that have a big influence on diners, shoppers etc. The owner called me out on my review saying I was threatening yelling, and scaring the employees. I am 70 and injured with a smashed shoulder, four broken ribs and a brain bleed. The last time I yelled at any employee was probably 1980. And I am harmless - never did that. The owner is a FIRE STARTER and would do better with people if she was an Amazon Warehouse worker and not a front facing small business owner. This is a bad ending and the fire will burn because she is a fire starter. BAD ENDING FOR HER and the fire is going to burn. read more

Very unique boutique with beautiful, handcrafted goods. There were so many things I absolutely loved! Some of my favorites were: handmade hair clips by Karst, made of cellulose acetate, a material made from wood pulp, and cotton fibers. They were gorgeous and so unique! Earrings made by Kara Yoo, from sustainable materials, were very pretty. My favorite has got to be the most adorable amphora candlestick holders handmade by Erika Christine ceramics. Handmade wood resin block art made in Phoenix by Lana Nguyen were so vibrant! They also carry lots of beautiful unique baby clothing and accessories. Prices are on the higher end, but you're buying very unique items you won't see anywhere else. If you're looking for a beautiful and thoughtful gift, check them out! read more

Stopped in today as I was walking to my car. Cool spot! They've got so many artsy/gift things here! Kind of reminds me of a ship in Berkeley Ca. The girl manning the store was beyond gorgeous- and just as nice! I'm a total candle collector, so I had to run out of the shop because I was about to go bananas with the candles! As soon as I have room- I'm headed back! read more

my favorite place to shop in Phoenix! Great for gifts and for yourself :) I came in a ton and the product switches out enough to keep it fresh. read more

I love stopping here every time I'm in Phoenix! So many cute and sweet goods. A friend told me about it a while ago and I'm addicted.

This shop is really cute! Located in a shopping center with a bunch of other cute shops and nice eateries. We didn't have much time so we only popped into Local Nomad briefly for a quick walk-through. Staff is very friendly. Highly recommend checking it out. They sell cards, plants, clothing, accessories, etc. (: read more

A Hidden Gem. I visit Phoenix every year to see my folks and wanted to buy a gift for my cousin. I found this spot through Yelp and was pleased when I walked in. If you are looking for a unique gift such as mugs, pots, clothing, cards, jewelry and much more, this place may be a great choice for you. It is on the higher end of pricing but you are supporting artisans and specialty items. I ended up buying a small candle, card and really lovely mug. The mug;s design is one-of-a-kind and my cousin really loved it. I will return on my next visit to purchase some other goodies. The establishment itself is so inviting and the staff was really nice and friendly. I like supporting places that make you feel welcomed to be there. read more

A very cute store sprinkled with local items. The two ladies are very friendly and welcoming. I was able to find some pretty jewelry for my mom just in time for Mother's Day. read more

I would permanently move in here if that was allowed. The shop is perfect, and honestly I do like the slightly more hands-off customer service! It allows me to browse and soak it all in without feeling pressured. I've spent hours at a time in here, and I always leave with something unique and that I'm obsessed with. It is also the PERFECT place to shop for gifts! Nothing there is gimmicky or boring. You could close your eyes and spin around, grab something, and it would make the most stylish and thoughtful gift. I never wear jewelry, but the earrings here actually moved me to re-pierce my ears This is one of the pairs I took home. read more

Lovely gifts with a story. Everything is unique, curated, and so beautiful. Staff is always so kind and helpful. And my favorite spot to get gorgeous cards for every occasion! read more

I'm so obsessed with this store. It's been my go-to spot for birthday and thank-you gifts + cards for friends and somehow I always end up buying something for myself. Recently picked up the most beautiful Brooklyn Candle Studio candle and it's honestly too pretty to burn so I just fall asleep every night sniffing it. So happy to have such a cute gem with such amazing souls staffed here right in the heart of Phx read more

I've found out about some of the best//my favorite brands because of Local Nomad. The owner, Lauren, is the ultimate curator. It's a great spot to buy a thoughtful gift for someone. I just put a bunch of baby items on my registry (cute books and pacifiers). We love Crane and Carbon skincare that she carries. She has an amazing selection of clothing, too! read more

This is a stopover I had chosen on our roadtrip. Instead of stopping at typical rest areas, we love discovering and shopping at small boutiques to support the local community and to find items we haven't seen before either online or in person. Local Nomad with its friendly salesclerk and lovely choices made our one-hour stop in Phoenix quite enjoyable and relaxing. I left with a few choice items for our new home: wooden soap dish, brass cheese knives, a funny-shaped scrubber (although its shedding a bit)... and for me, a lavendar lip balm. Bookmarked! read more

Christmas was a hit thanks to this spot. I got my mother in law a gorgeous sun catcher for her garden, my niece an olive wood spoon, and stocking stuffers of chocolates and teas for my stepdad and brother in law. Sure, it was a little pricey, but it was worth it for the unique products and the smiles on the faces of my loved ones when they opened their gifts. read more

A very fun store with a great selection of local style items. The prices were a bit high, but it's nice to have a store like this in town. I got my baby a crocheted crocodile rattle that is adorable. read more

Super cute local shop in Uptown Plaza. Stopped in recently for the first time (it's a bit hidden in the back) and I picked up some nice locally made candles, some cute books as a gift, and sweater. Friendly and helpful people working there and it is close to my house, so it is a new fave for me! read more

This is one of my favorite shops! In recent years, I've significantly changed my shopping habits, making a point to almost exclusively buy items that are made ethically, by people who are treated fairly. This generally means items that are made in USA, or are fair-trade, or otherwise have a transparent and clean supply chain. As you can imagine, it can be very difficult to find these items, especially in an actual brick-and-mortar store. This is why I appreciate Local Nomad so much, and why it's one of my go-to shops to browse for home goods, gifts, and accessories. The majority of the items I find here meet my shopping standards, and it's very refreshing to see a local shop embracing the same values that are important to me. I wish I could buy everything in this store, as it's all so beautiful and made with care! read more

Stumbled upon this cute boutique in my neighborhood and it did not disappoint. I could have bought everything in the store! Ended up purchasing some jewelry, candles, and a cookbook that I absolutely love! read more

I had heard about this store from a few people and thought it might be a cool place to check out. I came in and said hello to the people at the cashier stand.. both of whom barely glanced at us and said nothing. I saw some things in the store that I liked, such as unique cards and beanies. I like supporting small businesses so was very disappointed. Due to the rude demeanor of the staff, I decided not to purchase anything. We left. I don't plan on returning and giving money to a business whose staff can't even look up and greet their customers. read more

As a Phoenix native, Local Nomad is my go-to for gifts and more. The shop is wonderfully curated with local goods & quality products, some of my favorites being Crane & Carbon skincare, & Standard Wax Candles. The staff is always warm & friendly, offering help but never sales-y. I recommend this shop to all of my friends & to anyone here as well. read more

Local Nomad is one of my favorite shops! The owner, Lauren, has such a terrific eye and is so thoughtful when it comes to the brands she carries. The shop is bright, cheery and full of good vibes; you'll never want to leave! Whether you're gift shopping or want to treat yo'self to something nice, Local Nomad is a must. Everthing is unique, one-of-a-kind and made to last. The owner carries a lot of local pieces but she also supports small artisans nationally and globally. If you're a sucker for female-owned makers and/or for pieces that are sustainably produced, this is the shop for you. Be sure to pay Local Nomad a visit if you haven't already! read more

Very cute store I've been here a couple times and love everything in there! However they have horrible customer service. Each time I have gone in to check out new products NO ONE says hello or how may I help you. One time a group of workers just stood there and kept there little conversation going as I entered. I am very disappointed. read more

This shop is EVERYTHING. I lived in Phoenix for 20 years and never had there been a space to access the most curated, styled and perfect mix of home, clothing and apothecary like Local Nomad offers. They source all their products from local and global makers who have sustainability AND style in mind. And I can't walk out of there without more than expected, every time. The best part is, the shop owner is a GEM... she truly has the goal of bettering the community in mind and she is often there, always smiling and passionate about getting to know every single customer. The rest of their staff is amazing too. If you have yet to check out Local Nomad, I highly recommend making a stop in and meeting your new favorite Phoenix store. ESPECIALLY right now, the holiday gift options are on point! read more

What an interesting shop! Everything is beautifully hand crafted. Perfect place to shop for a gift........or just for me! Candles, lotions and potions, clothing, jewelry and handmade note cards. Lovely. read more

This is our all time favorite boutique in Phoenix. Sophisticated yet minimalist desert style with sustainability and locality front of mind.

We found this place while exploring the shops on Camelback and I'm so glad we did. The space is really inviting, everything is so well curated, and the shop owner was super friendly. This is a great spot if you're looking for gifts and locally sourced goodies. read more

Very cute store in a really nice shopping center. I went on a Saturday and it was a little too busy with people standing around in the small space to fully shop but I'll definitely try again on week day! read more

When COVID hit, all I could think about were the local businesses I love and what I could do to help in any way. I had a lot of friends who either had birthdays, special occasions or just needed a pick-me-up, and Local Nomad always came through with the best gifts. Since things have reopened, I love shopping at their store because I get all kinds of good energy and just the design of the place itself makes me happy. read more

One of my favorite boutiques in the valley- hosting locally made art, including the stunning macrame by Robyn Parker. Other unique finds are pottery, textiles to die for, and beautiful one of a kind clothing. And the owner Lauren is so welcoming. She responds quickly to emails and is very personable! read more

I found this place when I was traveling through PHX. I like all the unique products. The girls who work here are really sweet. I also like that the products say where they are from and have a little story about them. I go to this store every time I'm nearby. read more

I don't live in Phoenix but I come here a lot and I always try to stop by this store when I'm here. I love the items they have. They have great taste and unique gifts to bring home to friends and family :) read more

Gorgeous shop. My absolute favorite. Meticulous selections and amazing taste. Most if not all products are made ethically and are socially/environmentally responsible, there are stories and origins of most items. It's my favorite place to shop for myself and for gifts. The clothing and jewelry items I have gotten from there remain my favorite go tos and most complimented. A must in PHx. read more
