I just have one note for Crow Bookshop, "amazing." I love a good independent bookstore, and this…read moreone is so good. It's chock full of books including some used books, kids books, etc. I really enjoyed the categorization of the books, which may sound weird, but as a former librarian I notice these types of things. The shelves stretch from floor to ceiling and it gives the coziest Beauty and the Beast library vibes. The person working at the register was very kind and friendly and I ended up buying a cute constellation guide. We had fun browsing and I saw so many great books, I just wish I had more suitcase space to have purchased more. I will definitely be stopping by again the next time I'm in town.

This store attracts book lovers, so I had a wonderful conversation about horror novels with one of the patrons. I then had another wonderful conversation about romance novels with the cashier. Go support a local bookstore and buy some great books.

Nestled…read moredowntown just off Main Street with a nice parking lot, it looks like a cute and cozy home, beckoning you to enter. Inside is much larger and book displays are well designed and thought out, enticing and encouraging you to peruse for your next reading adventure. The owner works hard to curate books from every genre, staying on top of current best sellers, while also offering a great section of local Vermont authors (of both fiction and nonfiction) , games, cookbooks, stationary. There is something for everyone's tastes and preferences. The owner and employees are all very friendly and knowledgeable. They'll gladly order what you'd like if you can't find it in stock. She often hosts events, so follow their Facebook page to learn more. Prices are reasonable and it's always hard to walk out with "just one more book." The store is located next to a lovely coffee shop: perfect combination for a new book to take with you as you sip and dine. If you live local or just visiting, I encourage you to see all they have to offer. Supporting indie booksellers is so important and also rewarding. You won't be disappointed.

Only thing is, I always go in to shop for someone else and ALWAYS always leave with more goodies for myself! ;) The couple who run the shop also own the women's clothing boutique next door called Ruelle. Definitely worth checking out as well. They bought Stowe Street Emporium from a sweet older couple several years back, and have done an amazing job maintaining its original homey charm, while reinventing it w/their unique brand of coolness, style and fun. Check it out! (Note- I found the photos from their website and posted here).

I spoke with two employees who were so helpful and kind and spent so much time explaining how to care for the plant that I was interested in purchasing. You could just feel the warmth care and authenticity exuding from here. If I lived in Burlington, I would be here regularly. Alas, I was here for a quick we can get away and I'm glad I elected to purchase a plant to bring home with me. The staff was even so kind to offer to leave it at the shop until it would be more convenient for me to transport it so they could "spend more time with the plant" and accommodate me! 12 out of 10. 1000% recommend. I'll look forward to returning!

Many of the clothing items were priced in the $50-$100+ ballpark. Ultimately, the clearance section in the back and toys selection were of most interest as we perused for a gift for our niece.

After some time I decided to reach out to the manager Marie Kelly who was unwilling to even offer me a partial refund or reshipment. I've been in sales for over 30 years, and I would never treat a customer this way, for any reason ever. I follow a strict policy of treat you customers the same way you'd want to be treated; especially if it means only losing the retail mark-up cost of an item. But, I guess they don't hold ethics in very high esteem. Apparently, the customer isn't always right with yellow-turtle. Order online with this merchant at your own risk.
