Excellent Selection of occult books , swords and crystals I was in heaven !!!!! Matt was very knowledgeable I call him the professor next time read more

There's a lot in stock here and it's one of the only spiritual stores in Montrose. But the staff are just rude people. The first time I came in, I was the only person in the store. They didn't greet me, they kept talking to each other, and never acknowledged me until I came to check out. And when I did, and I was polite and asked about their days, and they were quick with me and rude. Came again with my girlfriend and they never greeted us. The energy is so bad. You'll feel it if you curse yourself enough to walk in. read more

This is a one-stop shop for magical supplies, teas, and herbs! The store has been open for decades and is always a welcoming sight when driving through Montrose. read more

Hey I just met you And this is tragic But here's their number It's Cauldron Magick! This is some crazy wild kind of magic and Wiccan store. I didn't expect to find this in (or on) Montrose, but I was glad that I did because it's pretty amazing. Very unique and different and enjoyable. Super friendly as well, and there's also a wall full of swords... and who doesn't love a wall full of swords. read more

Magick Cauldron - Magick trick - Bookstores Near Me - Houston, Texas

I came in with a few questions about different topics and I was pleasantly impressed with how each one was answered and in a way that was very comforting. There is a lot to see here and if you're not looking for something specific then you could really get lost in this place for hours just reading everything and it's so interesting. Prices seemed pretty reasonable to me but I don't have a lot of experience with the pricing of this type of thing. We were there for candles and information. We left with much more than that. The owner Paul was very friendly and so was the girl at the counter and I can't believe I didn't get her name, she was very helpful and kind. read more

3 things about this place. The employees are behind counters & will likely disregard customers that are simply looking around. They are still helpful if you make requests. The selection (books, cards, sculptures, jewelry, weapons) is amazing. Though, it can be overpriced I was still able to get good deals after negotiating & doing my own research. There's a big dog in the store that walks about. I don't mind, but I understand people simply aren't comfortable with other animals or are allergic. read more

Loved the environment overwhelming & full of attention grabbing items that make you wanna, SPEND SPEND SPEND!!!

Pretty cool place. As soon as you walk in you are greeted by the staff and the scent of aromatics hit you. It's really calm in there, kind of like being in a yoga studio but not really. There are statues of idols, crystals, and spell books. As well as other kinds of literature on the occult. I wanted to show my partner how it feels to be in a Harry Potter movie haha! The staff is very knowledgeable as well as sudgesstive when you ask. Needless to say I purchased some magnetic rings that are pretty cool. I would recommend this place for those magic enthusiasts. Alakazam!!! read more

Magick Cauldron - Bookstores Near Me - Houston, Texas

The service here was pretty mid. They have a lot of stuff in there I'm sure you will find what you need. From crystals, invents, jewelry, and books. They have 2 big dogs in the front who are so cute that was the highlight of this place! If you suffer from claustrophobia do not come here. It is very stuffy and cluttered. I was in and out in under 10 min the parking is also awful. read more

The vibes here are so incredible! They have the sweetest most beautiful doggies and everyone is so welcoming and helpful! The value of the things they sell is soooo worth the prices which are actually super reasonable! They have a huge selection of crystals and anything spiritually you need. I had so many questions as a new a person in their spiritual journey and they were so helpful and I learned so much . I'll be back alottt more!! read more

Magick Cauldron - Tigers eye skull crystal - Bookstores Near Me - Houston, Texas

Every Time I walk through those doors there is more of an wonderment greeting me. My long time friend Paul is the owner.

There are several displays with hand made jewelry, crystals of all kinds, medicine bags, tarot cards, books, robes, candles, incense and implements, you name it, they got it or they can locate it for you. read more

My kids like crystal shops. My kids love this one even more because of the dogs hanging out inside. This is a neat shop and have alot of stuff. A big selection of books.

Magick Cauldron - Bookstores Near Me - Houston, Texas

If I could give zero stars I would. Went in with my fiancé a while back and wish I never did. We took a look around the entire store, and picked up quite a few book/crystals. I guess because we had never been there and wanted to look through the entire store we looked like thieves to them? A couple of the men behind us made remarks under their breath calling us theives as we checked out. We felt racially profiled and downright upset that we even spent money in this shop. I cannot believe they sell things from my culture and don't have the respect for it. I got the worst vibes from them and their establishment. Too bad because they do have some decent items. read more

First in, but definitely wouldn't be my last. Not sure where these negatives reviews are for or from but Dina and Amanda were helpful and kind. I was so nervous, but Dina made me feel very comfortable. She help me find all that I needed and explained significance of all I was obtaining. I honestly didn't know what I was going to get out of going there, but I sure am glad I went when I did! Excellent customer service. read more

Magick Cauldron - Rosemary safe, dragon blood sage, abundance cande and positive vibe candle plus love and affection candles.. and one of 3 candle holders - Bookstores Near Me - Houston, Texas

This is a great place to go for all things mystical, celestial, magical, etc. From novelty interests, to ingredients for potions; this is a one size fits all. I have found their staff very friendly and informative. I have also seen quite a diversity in their crowd as I've visited for over a decade and I have never seen them be rude to anyone, quite the contrary. It's a great place for an energy pick me up and replenishing your supplies! read more

I was on my way home when I saw this place so I made a U-Turn, excited to see what they had.. a lack of customer service is what they have! I was in here for a minute & neither of the 2 staff members I saw who saw me come in bothered to say anything or greet me in anyway. As I'm walking around the store I stumbled upon this big a** old dog laying there like he's given up on life. It was unappealing and he was blocking my access to some of the merchandise. This store is for the "Wiccan" community, not the Gods & Goddesses of the Earth. (IYKYK) If your ancestors are guiding you to do the work allow them to guide you elsewhere. Spend your money where it will be appreciated and get your tools from a place where the intentions of the owners align with yours in some way. read more

Only reason i'm not giving 1 star is because of their selection. They have lots of cool things to look at, despite everything being overpriced. Some crystals are incorrectly labeled and not genuine. I've been several times while living in Houston, and I just keep noticing negative things about this place. The staff are not rude, but not friendly. People don't greet you when you walk in, don't ask if you need assistance, and will converse loudly amongst themselves. You have to ask for help if you need it. When you do, you're usually met with snide, judgmental, unfriendly staff who act like you're bothering them and they'd rather be anywhere else. Horrible energy. Every time I've bought incense here, they stink when I burn them. Just go to another spiritual shop. These people are apathetic and racist/discriminatory and there are plenty of other shops that deserve your money. read more

I used to visit this store all the time. I'd been going here since it was on Westheimer, during the days of WestFest. I don't know if I've gotten more knowledgeable or they've gotten more racist, but between the "thin blue line" sticker on their door making it plain that people of color aren't welcome or the horrible attitude of their staff, the place has definitely soured. I went in with a friend of mine who happened to not be white. I was attended to pleasantly by a large man with a beard behind the counter. She was ignored and the guy rolled his eyes when she asked questions. Pixies Intent is further west, but worth the extra trip to attend a space that is truly welcoming. read more

I've been here a few times. At first I liked it for their large selection of herbs and candles, although I felt it was very overpriced compared to other shops, especially their crystals. Their crystals are tiny and some don't appear authentic (heat treated amethyst sold as citrine) but still pricey which just feels like a scam. I've always had issues with their parking situation, but I guess living in houston I can't judge that as everyone's parking lots suck. Then there's the dogs. I don't mind that the owners let their dogs roam, it's cute, but they don't clean up after them at all which is a health and safety hazard. Next is that they support blue lives in a part of the city with a large African American community, knowing that police officers target them. They also never fully complied with COVID regulations, they enforced masks when Harris County required them, but you could regularly see employees taking them off. The last time I went in there was in May and no one had masks on. The employees were also sitting in a circle together spouting racist and ignorant remarks about cultural music they had recently heard. I immediately put back everything I had in my hand and left for a different shop. I hadn't planned on leaving a review, but upon seeing how the owners harass other reviewers with more ignorant comments as well as claiming that anyone with a negative opinion of their shop is a troll, I felt compelled to finally share my experiences. The universe doesn't take kindly to nasty energy especially the energy this shop has, it won't last. Going in there you just feel all your energy being drained and no metaphysical shop should make you feel that kind of dread. Save yourself the trouble and money and shop at any of the other metaphysical shops in Houston. read more

I am glad that I am not alone in my experience with this place. I came to visit the shop when I first started practicing from a recommendation from a friend. I was a bit scared and a girl did help me with picking a book but another gentleman also recommended me a book as well. I bought both and the girl gave attitude and said " oh your getting that one too". As I was leaving I heard the girl under her breath say " I bet she's not even gonna practice. That is very disheartening and cruel. The books were great but I would rather go to a local shop now that I know better. read more

Racists and they don't wear masks. I wasn't greeted and the whole time I looked up, the lady behind the counter was staring.

My heart is sad as I write this. I want to love this store because they do have a lot of items but I get a feeling that the staff doesn't really prefer clientele who are...people of color. I try so hard not to assume that people are acting differently towards me because of my race but sometimes you just know. I would ask when they will be getting certain items and they literally would tell me "I don't know" in such a dismissive way or even say, "excuse could you tell me where [this item] would be" and they would pretend not to hear me. I ended up spending a great deal of money at the store (because I was already there) and it was only then was I met with any kind of enthusiasm from the staff. Like I previously said, I didn't want to think that they were treating me differently than the customers around me because I'm brown, but after reading other reviews from POC (who got the same vibe), I probably won't be revisiting the store. Absolem's is a bit farther, but it feels way more like home to me. read more

Went in once looking for some candles and oils and was not greeted and felt unwelcomed in the store. I've worked in retail and understand the importance's of making a customer feel welcomed to ensure that they will at least consider buying something. My suggestions is to check out other locally owned businesses. Would never go back and would hope at least they would work on customer service. read more

Went here for the first time just to have a look. Purchased some herbs, a smudge stick and some oil. Staff was decent enough to me but I did see an example of the staff being more rude to another potential customer. Customer was however intoxicated or high so I'll call a spade for a spade. I saw many POC here that weren't treated worse or better than me and didn't see the staff following them around like other reviews say but that's just my third hand experience. I was left alone to get my herbs together in peace, and there was a lovely lady (poc) next to me doing the same thing without the staff bothering her. I'd say honestly it's the bottom-of-the-barrel minimum in terms of politeness all around so don't get your hopes up. For fellow Wiccans, I would do research ahead of coming to this place. Herbs are well priced, but buy your crystals elsewhere. There's a lot of LARPing supplies here that feels silly to look at, and stuff I'm sure you can find at your dollar store so save your money and look for other small businesses on Etsy for your stones or your local medicinal Chinese apothecary. I found what I wanted, but I'll probably won't buy from here again. Look, I like when the staff leaves me alone and let's me do my thing, but there was the heavy feeling I had that I was a nuisance for being there. Lots of things to look at but the experience was uncomfortable. read more

I was unsure about coming here because of all the reviews I was seeing about racism was very alarming to me. I wasn't sure if I wanted to support a place like that but i remembered coming here many years ago and it was such a unique fun shop so i still wanted to check it out again because i was in search of some niche books. To my surprise when I came I did not see any acts of prejudice or racism. There were plenty of colored peopled coming in and out the shop and everyone was treated respectful and acknowledged. No one was followed around the shop out of suspension and in fact the workers seemed to have even known one of the colored customers and I could hear them chatting casually and socializing from across the room. I didn't not sense any negativity towards anyone. This makes me really happy because there are not many shops like this in Houston and I would like to continue supporting a place like this as long as they are kind to all people. I bought some books and went back a couple more times and every experience was the same. They were welcoming to all ethnics walking in. read more

The reviews for this place had me terrified that I would experience some of the bad customer service others have spoken about... however my experience was the complete opposite. I walked in and looked around there's so much to look at! No one awkwardly followed me and there was a young lady standing by the herbs who was willing to provide so much information on how to use everything they had. I came for the crystals. They don't have the best collection of crystals but you may come away with something if you need it in a hurry. They have a good selection of incense as well. The selection of tarot cards is large as well. Overall it was ok... you can definitely get lost in here browsing. Lots to see if you are just coming for crystals try another place. read more

EXTREMELY RACIST ESTABLISHMENT, PEOPLE OF COLOR PLEASE BEWARE: My mother and myself visited this store twice, the first visit which was approximately one month ago and the second which was literally a few minutes ago, the first experience was decent and the only reason I say decent is because Matt was the only employee who helped us, the other employees just stared at us as if we were aliens, the kicker was the older white blonde female employee actually bumped my arm in front of the register and didn't even bother to say excuse me as she reached in between me and my mother, my mother and I just assumed maybe she wasn't having a good day. Today we reluctantly visited again, when we stepped into the store the same older blonde white female was sitting at the door and instead of greeting and welcoming us to the store she looked at us as if we had physically assaulted her or wronged her in some way, not one of the white gentlemen behind the counter acknowledged us nor any floor employee, we immediately left the store and will NEVER return to this establishment again,THE RACISM IS REAL AND IN YOUR FACE HERE, THEY MAKE NO EFFORT TO HIDE IT. COMMUNITY OF COLOR PLEASE BEWARE OF THIS STORE. YOU WERE WARNED..... read more

No masks from any of the cashiers, and the help lady had the mask below her nose. Was racially profiled and insulted for my ethnic last name while the cashier screamed about bulbous penises, not to mention the rudeness of a particularly old white lady. After asking about how to pick out herbs, this old white lady who wore her mask incorrectly screamed at me to read the directions when the station had not been correctly set up anyway. Absolutely zero sense of sanitation throughout the store with extremely rude employees. This store also supports Blue Lives Matter, and I hope no one buys the overpriced goods from this store. Please buy from Etsy or from somewhere else. read more

I wish I had seen the reviews of this place before I threw my money away on these people. I can definitely concur that these people are racists and don't deserve a dime of your money unless, of course, you feel the same way. I was happy to have found a metaphysical store in Houston so that I could shop in person. I'm a recent transplant from California. The store was nice enough and had the usual supplies. Unfortunately, I'm not happy with how I was treated, with the exception of the cool guy who helped me buy my necklace. Of the two women behind the counter, one of them followed me after I was given the necklace. I was debating in my mind if I wanted something else, so I had continued looking around the store. She did this under the guise of "bagging" my necklace, then kept hanging around. I had already been in the store for a long time by now, so it was a little late to be "helping" me. So I decided not to buy anything else and we went to the register together. At the register, the other lady was nice enough and made conversation. During the conversation I revealed that I'm a recent transplant from Los Angeles. The other woman, the same one who had followed me, said "Ugh, well don't bring any of that liberal stuff here. We don't need that crap." Wow. Yes, I'm African American. Yes, I'm from California. But, no, I wasn't there to steal. And my politics, irrelevant as they are to shopping for spiritual items, are no one's business. I WAS a customer. I won't be back. In addition to all this, they don't wear masks and it's a small store, so unless you want to roll the dice or have already been vaccinated, that's another reason to leave them be. These are the kinds of people I dreaded running into when I moved to Texas. Fortunately, this hasn't happened to me before and I've been here a year. read more

My mom wanted crystals so I decided to take her here and the prices was absolutely outrageous. She was disappointed by the selection and the vibe. I was disappointed by the prices. I was looking at the oil burners (the kind you put a tea light candle in) and saw that they had ones from dollar tree they marked for $15. It was the luminessence brand that is sold at dollar tree. The people working there have a bad attitude and all around it is very unwelcoming. read more

Was my first time to visit this place, they greeted pretty much everyone but me when I walked in, nobody offered to help. When I checked out the girl had a horrible attitude and didn't say anything to me. OKKK then thanks for the bad vibes, won't come back here again. read more

My first time coming to this place and right off lots of negative energy. No one greeted me nor was the atmosphere welcoming nor was I helped. At the register, I was met with a very rude cashier. (A fat white male)I let him know what crystals I had and how much they were (my last store would ask since there are so many) and he replied " I know". Lol uhm okay? After reading more yelp reviews it seems POC should steer clear and find another store. i couldn't figure out what energy I was feeling while In the store but hindsight is 20/20. I will not be returning. Very disappointed given " spread kindness" is plastered all over the store and it's 2020 lol read more

I love it here. The people are so chill and the doggies are so cute. The employees are down to earth which I appreciate!

This used to be a comic book store called Phoenix comics. I went in there once and met the owner... the owner has haunted me since i was a child. I don't say haunted because he scares me, but because I've literally been seeing him around the Montrose area and Houston since I was a child. I call him the Hobbit man... you can find him walking streets of Houston with his staff on a daily basis. And he is everywhere! Its crazy to me that he changed the comic book store to a Magic shop because the owner totally seems like a magical creature. Okay enough of that... The magick cauldron is a great source for quartz crystals, jems, crystal balls, swords, staffs, robes, books, potion ingredients, and basically anything magic you might want! Whether you are a true practioner of the art, or just someone wanting to get some magic stuff, this is the place to go. And look out for the hobbit man!! You'll KNOW if you see him... you'll know. read more

Magick Cauldron - Bookstores Near Me - Houston, Texas

My favorite place to pick up my gems and candles. A one stop shop for all things spiritual and witchy. Great service from the knowledgeable staff, I always look forward to my monthly trips out here from Galveston county. read more

Came in to intentionally get a stone and was promtly helped and guided to the stone just for me. I'm so thankful and will be back!!!

I found this place in a google search to find crystals. The shop kind of reminded me of a pawn shop from the exterior. Once we got inside they had an array of new age items, Smudging sticks, wands, crystals, incense, etc. The selection of crystals wasn't as large as I had anticipated and I found the price to be a bit high for the size of them. What kind of creeped me out was the man at the register. He was playing music that sounded like something you would hear on a dungeons and dragons game, and he would periodically scream a little. I wasn't sure if he was laughing at first, but ater turning around and watching him do it again I realized he was indeed yelping ( no pun intended). I paid for my crystals $17 for a small amethyst, clear quartz, and heart-shaped rose quartz. I am not sure if I will frequent this store again, my spirit just did not feel at ease here. read more

I actually had not been to magick cauldron in several years. I had to come in her and get some magical gifts. I realized when I walked in how much I have missed this store. I had to have self control and not buy so much stuff for myself and and look what I came for. I was surprised to see that they still have dogs to greet you in you walk in.. Staff is super nice and helped me widen I needed it. read more
