Staples had a good quality, but Blick's were very high quality AND cheaper than Staples. This was the first time that I shopped at this Blick as they recently moved into this former Joann store from their India Street location. While this store is a little more out-of-the-way, it is a wonderful size for Blick, and all on one level. Items are easy to find and nicely displayed, making the store a joy to browse in. If they don't have it, you probably don't need it. They also have some fun not-exactly-art things, but fewer books than I remember being at the India store. Lots of easy parking. Helpful service, too.

New location, or should I say relocated from Little Italy…read more High quality products for your arts needs. Greeted once entered the store. Helpful staffs. Not so overpriced. They have a lot to choose from. Parking is somewhat better since you don't have to go into the store for a temporary parking pass like at little Italy, then go back to your car and place the pass on your dashboard and head back to the store. Tight parking spaces now.

Everyone there is helpful and kind, and the owner, Vicky, is especially knowledgeable. I think she may be misunderstood in some reviews. She's not overly bubbly, but she is absolutely not unkind, just straightforward and very good at what she does. The only downside is that they're only open on weekdays with pretty limited hours. Otherwise, I truly think this LNS should be on everyone's list to visit!

As soon as my friends and I entered this store, I sensed hostility from the female employee. She…read morerepeatedly asked what I was looking for within a few minutes, but I told her I was just browsing. She hesitated to allow my friends to sit at the table while I looked around. When I approached her with a question, she ignored me and asked another customer how she could assist her. The other woman was friendly and said she had a question first. I asked if the store carried golden retriever canvas designs; she responded harshly, saying she had so much inventory that she didn't know. This was strange, since it's her store, and she could have politely said she was unsure and offered to help look. I had planned to buy canvases for myself and my mom, and was also searching for needle minders. Unfortunately, due to the poor service, I left empty-handed. I suggest hiring staff who know how to interact with customers. I saw other reviews but decided to give the store a try, yet I cannot in good conscience recommend it. I do not suggest shopping here.
