I always walk away with a title I have never heard of before on their discount rack and marvel at my enjoyment for under 10 dollars. I also get one newly published book as my trip souvenir and one book on essays or short stories , they have the best collection. I combine my trip up town with a walk through Columbia's campus. Book lovers don't miss out.

They have been in business for more than eleven years and have weathered the highs and lows of retail in NYC. They sell a variety of gifts, household items, toiletries, and art. Fantastic selection of candles and natural soaps. Striking photos and art pieces from local creators. This is the place to get a special item for someone you love who loves Harlem and NYC. The shop smells lovely and is beautifully curated. They rotate their inventory regularly so there is always something new. Please support them! You will not be disappointed.

This is one of my favorite places to visit in Harlem! I became familiar a few years ago because my…read morefamily lived right around the corner. The owners are really cool and carefully curate their offerings. NiLu is one of the few places I venture out to visit alone because I enjoy taking my time checking out the products. They offer artworks, beautiful coffee table books, premium Harlem candles, puzzles, journals, board games, fragrances, greeting cards, and so much more that celebrate the culture. Stock is limited by design so if you find something you want, purchase immediately!!! I want the Harlem version of Monopoly but they're sold out every time I pop in. Service is always on point too.i encourage you to check them out. I often go in looking for gifts for others but leave with items for myself.

As another reviewer has said, this shop owner doesn't stand behind what they sell…read more Purchased a product from their website. Reviewed the return policy ahead of time, because you know, it's 2026 and customer service is paramount when ordering expensive things online. However the item delivered was not of the "custom" quality described on the website. As a matter of fact, the item pattern matched the images on the website to a T... so clearly not custom. Not only was it not custom, the design printout was of low quality and looked cheap. When an item is not custom and of low quality, it doesn't warrant a custom price tag. I engaged owner for a return within 10 days of delivery, which is outlined as their return policy, and they gave me a weak excuse "we are a small shop" as if to imply that I was rude to ask for a return and hurt a small business. After two email exchange, the owner stopped responding to my emails. Suffice to say, don't buy their beautiful looking lazy susans. They are overpriced, not custom, and are low quality. Not worth a $325 price tag. Avoid this shop and owner. They don't deserve your business.

Really good brands and things you don't see often around here. I miss West Side Kids dearly but this selection (while not entirely the same stuff) came very close. It would be such a good place to go for gifting or assembling little favor bags or a rainy day activity etc. They also have adult planners, greeting cards, serious real art and crafting supplies for adults, adult board and card games, and lots of little cute gifts for adults. Of course massive bonus points for being truly local with the same people/owner working there for years and years! We need to keep the local gems in business now more than ever!
