The pricing here isn't too bad and it's quite comparable to the other places we stopped into. I was truly expecting it to be super expensive because of the location.

Highly recommend stopping by here if you're in the area whether you're a local or a tourist.

They had everything from cards to bags to Boston souvenirs to hand towels to seasonal items. They have something for everyone. It's on the smaller side so on the weekends it does get crowded.

It would be a good spot to start Christmas shopping for anyone in the family or find souvenirs for yourself.

Best selection of knives. Was really excited to discover this store, and see that they take knives…read moreseriously. In Downtown LA there is a fantastic store that has an insane number of knives... maybe too many. This store claims that they they have the biggest selection of knives in New England. I feel like they have enough good knives to have a varied enough selection for different preferences, but yet not overwhelming their customers with too many choices. I got a great bread knife that I'm really happy with recently. It's just the right weight (not to light) and has a really comfortable grip and an "elegant" length. It makes cutting breads really smooth and easy to cut very thin slices. It is apparently their best bread knife, and at $150, I think the price is right. Despite being on Beacon Hill, I don't feel that their prices are high or unreasonable, but just right. The store is fun to browse through for many other kitchen or cooking supplies or gifts. As a well-stocked mom and pop store it has that quality of surprise at finding something you never thought about. The personnel is also very helpful. I've been there a couple times and they seem to be knowledgeable and willing to help, to explain things and answer questions. They have personal experience with the things they sell.

But the service was bad and we encuntered terrible attitude. First of all, for a fine knife store, there was no ability to try any knife. We selected a Mac 6.5in for $150 based on our past experience. It turned out they only have the one display knife to sell in the store. We also wanted to buy a magnetic knife holder. Again, it is only available inside the sealed box. We could not open the box to examine the product. We decided to just buy the knife as a gift. Paid by credit card but had to ask the clerk to get my receipt. Even that, the first offer was by email only. Overall, it was a terrible experience. Do not go there. Not worth it.
