On this…read moreparticular day (while we were waiting in line for Lizzie's) my little one saw frogs and pigs (handcrafted decorations) outside of the store so we decided to go in- we are so glad that we did. Taylor is simply wonderful and she welcomed us into the store. My son said that it was like a dream for him as he was met with a ton of frog trinkets and cool items that peaked his interest. The price was more than reasonable and the selection is phenomenal! Taylor was so sweet and allowed us to be there a little bit later bc my son was so fascinated with their frog selections, so we ended up with a very original card ( I do not think you can get this on other online establishments) and a frog puppet. We appreciate Taylor and the selected rarer items in this store- we will definitely be back!

I was able to try different nibs, that's not a service you get from big box stores. Here at Paper Mouse, you feel like you're talking with a friend, they really make you feel valued as a customer. Shopping inside the store is like stepping back in time, before large corporations took over. Just browsing is an experience in itself. I highly recommend!

It's a small shop, but it was very cute. They had all kinds of stationary supplies. I have a TN regular and passport so I wanted to get some refills, they also had some hobonichi notebooks and covers as well. They had a bunch of different kinds of pens, washi tapes, stickers, stencils, etc... definitely worth a stop. I also got a TWSBI fountain pen that I wanted and they had it there! Was so happy about that. Got ink for my new pen, they had different brands and colors of ink as well. The employee in the shop was really nice and helpful.

When I went in to pick up my order one of the chefs were eating while preparing food. Today I ordered shrimp scampi the tomatoes were old and the shrimp was cooked too long. I also got flourless cake, it came in 2 separate containers and come to find out the cake was frozen. The last time I had this it was warm with icecream and whip cream. I will not be coming back. Not sure if it's under new management or the managers are not there. Don't waste your money go to Sogno in Woburn the food is always consistent and the staff are great!

This little shop has everything you need to have a DIY sushi night. They have quality fish that you…read morecan use for sashimi, nigiri, sushi rolls, hand rolls - endless possibilities! I've seen salmon, tuna, toro, uni, squid, crab, and more. You can ask the staff to cut up the fish blocks for you, I'm not sure if this is for a small cost. They can add your fish to a bed of rice for an extra cost. They also have seafood that you cook, those items are in separate fridges with a label stating that the product is recommended for cooking. These items are frozen. You can also find different sauces, sushi rolling mats, seaweed, anything you can think of to help you prepare sushi. If you don't want to make your own sushi, you can order sushi from their menu and they will make it on the spot for you. Depending on the day or time you visit, there may be a little wait. I stopped by on a Sunday afternoon one time and waited ~10-15 minutes for two sushi rolls because there was only one person working on the sushi behind the counter and one person taking care of the register. Please be patient with them as they seem like a family-owned small business. You can also call ahead to order party trays. The prices seem fair, I've never been disappointed with the quality of fish. Very neat environment, there are signs for everything. The staff is also super friendly!

They have a few Japanese freezer and pantry items but the big draw is super fresh seafood! They sell made to order sushi and sashimi for incredibly affordable prices, and even have "party packs" to order for your next event! The most fun for me is to order their chirashi--you look around at any fish you want, bring all the packs to the front, and they'll cut the fish for you and arrange it into a beautiful chirashi bowl on rice for only $1 more than the cost of the fish! Even better, they have lots of unique fish for adventurous eaters, like sweet shrimp, clam, octopus, Uni, black cod, etc. I absolutely love getting to choose my cuts of fish, and the quality is incredible! Would note there is no seating, so this is definitely a to go spot, but definitely worth a try!

The produce is soggy (parsley), brown (romaine lettuce), or molding and straight up rotting (berries). The incredible price markup is just the soggy cherry on top. Feels like the shelf stable stuff is half out, like it was during the pandemic. I could only find one kind of plain old milk chocolate bar in the chocolate section. Organic onions in a different aisle from regular onions, but not so for avocados, leading to confused mendicants wandering about. The stars are for the staff who are the only good and normal part of the place. By the end, I felt as wilted and bewildered as the greens section.
