This morning I had called the shop to inquire about a dollhouse. I spoke to a woman who stated that…read moreshe would check the price and have me call back in 30 minutes. I was so delighted that she had the house that I just headed right over to purchase it, regardless of price. When I arrived, she seemed extremely uninterested at first, but stated she would find out the price of the hous for me. After I looked at it, I had decided to purchase it, and I told her I would like to load it in the car. She became very distraught and angry Stated that she had told me to call back in 30 minutes because it would take a long time for them to prepare the house. She said that they would need to dismantle the display and it would not be ready until tonight. I told her I'd driven 40 minutes just to pick up the house and I would actually help her dismantle everything from insideif it would allow for me to get it sooner. By the way, there was only a few toys and pluses in the house. The picture is provided for everyone to see that it would only take 3 minutes to remove the items from inside! She then told me that she was very busy and I needed to calm down because she is verybusy and understaffed, and that she needs to check out everyone else in line first and I needed to step aside. She replies in a very mad way I told you to call back in 30 minutes!!!!! I reminded her kindly that she asked me to call back For the price, and I headed over because the price did not matter. I was embarrassed and humiliated, I then decided to walk away and let her check out all the other people in line. When she had done that, I came back to tell her I would help her dismantle the area for the house and I wanted to see what she could do for me. She was clearly walking past me ignoring me for a while and then she came and told me "now do you see what I just said,when we are extremely busy! She was so angry with us. I mentioned to her that she should calm down and that I would help her. Her attitude was so extremely disrespectful and aggressive and demeaning towards me. I don't even know why I bought the house, really just because I wanted to make sure I had everything assembled for Christmas for my kids. She then charged me more than what it cost to purchase the item Yes online, and the item is also marked in many areas and has some damage. I did not even complain about that. My biggest complaint is the way she treated me. It was absolutely disgusting. I work in an extremely stressful environment on a daily basis, and I have never ever talked to a single soul in this way EVER. I have spent thousands of dollars at your store, but I will never come back. I hope that everyone reads this and sees that they do not deserve to be treated this way.. Again I work in a very stressful high volume job, and have NEVER treated anyone this way Also you should have been grateful to be busy in a bad Economy, not taking it out on customers Your response shows everything. You called me entitled, yet again insulting me when I did nothing wrong. I am a kind paying customer at your store who moved aside even though I waited in line for you to check out those ten customers in a calm and patient manner. I tried to park outside your store, but a large beverage truck parked there. I told the lovely young man I would carry the house to my car on the SAME block but he said he would help me. It took 5 minutes for him to walk down the street with me, and I also thanked him and tipped him a cash gift. You can justify why you behaved so rudely to me all you want and refuse to acknowledge your behavior which is not excusable. The house DOES have damage and the price is lower on Maileg site and all websites. I have dealt with all kinds of extremely stressful situations and have NEVER treated anyone like that ever. You seem to find such behavior acceptable and this is why I will never come to your store again

Owner is incredibly rude and condescending. A lot of overpriced junk too. Not worth a visit.read more

But walking in and becoming a customer has allowed me to discover an eclectic emporium of artistic curiosities that's organized and crafted by a cool old couple. I curve to 4 stars just because a lot of the art & craft items inside do yield a bit of a hefty price tag, especially for my favorite Day of the Dead items. But whether you're looking for craft jewelry, something new & exciting to hang on your wall, a new coffee mug, a fancy housewarming gift, and then some; you'll find it here. It's especially perfect if you need to shop for someone as eclectic and quirky as my mom is. PPF also curates a number of the main line artistic events that go on, and does a number of good sales that you'll only find out about off their Facebook and newsletters.

I also got to meet Eric who was wonderful, and he helped me pick out the perfect gift for my mother. I was also glad to hear about the wonderful work the shop supports. Their new space is beautiful and welcoming; I can't recommend this shop enough! Of note, their address in Yelp is incorrect. They are now located at 814 W. Lancaster Ave (right down the street from the Bryn Mawr film institute).

This is the best soap I've used, clean and simple ingredients with a pure scent. The bar doesn't melt fast, which makes the $8 worth every penny. I went back to Whole Foods for another bar, unfortunately for me they sold out. Fortunately for Abiyah! Did a little research and found they have a store front.

They have a private parking lot and occupy both floors as they did in the past. The upstairs, which is accessible by elevator, had a Starbucks and a nice seating area. You are welcome to their free WiFi and can stay as long as you like. No purchase necessary! You can take books and magazines from the shelf to peruse while you are there. In addition to the wide variety of books and magazines, they have a gift section with puzzles, board games, stationary, wrapping paper and more. The staff seemed absolutely delighted and were eager to help and promote the store. They have more regional control over their offerings and have a nice selection of Philadelphia items in stock. They also have regular events and I was told Ginger Spice will be there in April to promote her kids book. Still has that brand new smell, stop in and check it out, great to have them back in the neighborhood!

This location has community events with local and national touring authors as well. I saw Ginger Spice on her YA Fantasy book series in April, and I made a friend at the event. WTG on building community, B&N. There is plenty of parking, and it's an easy walk from the Bryn Mawr regional rail station. They have books and toys on 2 floors, and a cafe upstairs. The staff is really friendly, and if you mention their community events, they will clue you into what's on the calendar. I always support local bookstores over chains, and that won't change. But the community events that this location hosts are a great addition to the neighborhood. Thanks for returning to Bryn Mawr, B&N!
