My long-distance friend and I are doing the "choose a JellyCat that reminds you of your friend…read moretrend" because we thought it'd be so cute to exchange them when we see each other, but when I went online to the official JellyCat store so much of their stock was sold out! So, I called Nola Kids and they have a good stock of them including the newest collections which is just what I was looking for. The girl was so sweet when I called over the phone and put the one I wanted to the side for me, so I was able to just jog in and pick it up. My friend is going to be shocked I was able to find this little guy!

This was a really great little spot I stumbled upon in New Orleans. I bought what's called a Rizzy…read moreat the Saint Ann register and it reminded me Of a toy I had growing up that played music, as a gift for my mother. It played Fur Elise and that's my favorite song. For only $8.99 that is a steal compared to cheaper made similar products.

Sell defective products without taking responsibility…read more We purchased two shirts for our kids. One shirt had a sleeve coming apart. The other shirt shrunk two sizes in the wash. A Large (10-12) is more like a Medium (6-8) pre wash. Absolutely need to size up if you're willing to run the risk of the shirt just falling apart on you. Went back to exchange for non-defective shirts but they would not offer any assistance because we didn't keep the receipt. Man worker first said he could try to look it up because we charged it, but the woman worker with the shoulder length dirty brown wavy hair kept telling him not to help me make it right. Standard gimmick store tourist trap. The staff is very friendly and helpful when you're asking questions about products pre-purchase. BUT, zero customer service skills post sale. Money grab store that doesn't take responsibility for their defective products. Unless, allegedly, you have your receipt. KEY POINTS 1.) Keep your receipt or TAKE A PICTURE OF YOUR RECEIPT. 2.) Shirt sizes are at least one size smaller than listed. 3.) Check shirt seams. 4.) SPEND YOUR MONEY ELSEWHERE.

We came to New Orleans for a trip without our kids and knew we had to bring home a souvenir for…read morethem, so we stopped into Little Toy Shop and actually ended up coming back a second time after thinking about the toys we saw. The people working here were so kind and helpful. They answered our questions and even helped us pick out a smaller second gift to bring home. I also loved that they had books from local authors and toys that really represent New Orleans instead of the usual generic souvenir shop items. Such a cute little spot if you're looking for gifts for younger kids while visiting New Orleans.

Cool print t-shirt shop in the Garden District of Uptown New Orleans. We had a total of three…read moreshirts created from scratch and the service was decent. The total wait time was about 45 minutes, and they had a lot of different print options to choose from. They were out of a few initial prints that I liked, but I made due of their inventory and found something creative to wear for a music festival that I plan to attend in September. The place is not the best for kids though, a lot of inappropriate type of books, and toys all over the place lol. My mind definitely went to the gutter a few times, but that is neither here nor there. Low-key Expensive! They aren't the cleanest or sharpest with the press from what I saw, but did their best to give us quality. Overall, this is a no-frills custom print t-shirt and vintage shop. A one time occasion, but not sure if I would return on any given day when back in NOLA. Felt overpriced for what we got! 3 STARS.

The place is slammed with toys for every age and a great selection of bikes. The amount of baby books we found was amazing and ended up buying about 4 of them.

They harken back to a time of rotary phones, zoltar fortune telling machines and vintage signs. A lot of the items are customizable with names and dates of your interested in that. These would make a seriously unique and awesome gift for anyone. They pretty much have signs and items for any occasion or profession. The staff was really helpful and if you purchase over 100 in orders through their website it's free shipping, so keep that in mind if you don't want to wait for something on-site. Overall: A Fun, unique store that has items from an early time!

Came here on a quick vacation to Louisiana, was walking around Jackson Square and saw the hot air…read moreballoons on display and fell in love. The staff that had helped me that day were very patient with me and helpful. Unfortunately, the product I wanted was too large for my check in luggage so they had offered to ship it for me, saying it would take about two weeks. Half a week later, I was told that the product is now out of stock and it may take until late summer or early fall until I will receive my product. This initially made no sense to me because the lady that helped me showed me the physical box in store, exact color and size. Their first reasoning was that there may have been a waitlist for that product before I purchased it. This also did not make sense as the person who was selling it to me would have literally given me that very same box if I had been able to take it home with me through my check in luggage. And they followed up by saying that they must have over sold the product. This was very upsetting to me, because this was the one souvenir I had bought myself during my time in Louisiana. Very upset, I asked for a refund, which was processed in a timely manner. All in all, I'm not sure how this could've handled better. Maybe it would be better for the store overall if they were keeping up to date with their stock of items before selling them. It's probably no fault of the staff that works there but more likely management. Very friendly staff but can't help but feel very disappointed at the outcome.

Date of visit: December 20, 2024…read more Our friend's daughter is a big anime fan and this was a Must Stop on our tour of NOLA. What it lacks in size (the store is quite small), it more than makes up for in variety of merchandise. If you are looking for Demon Slayer, One Piece, Spy x Family, Jujitsu Kaizen, or any other Japanese-sourced item, they likely have it here. My nephew is similarly-afflicted and I picked up a couple items for his birthday. Some opportunities: 1. Many things do not have a price. Not sure why consumers still have to wonder the price of things that aren't healthcare related in 2024; nothing annoys me more than having to drag something to the register to get a price. 2. Items missing pieces are identified with a sticker but are also mixed in with complete items. Seems like a recipe for disaster and these items should be all stocked together. 3. No ability to get a paper receipt. I received a text receipt but when I click on it, it tells me I have to log in to see what it was that I bought.
