I absolutely LOVE this store! Everyone is so welcoming, inviting and knowledgeable. They have a great selection of crystals, bracelets, herbs, candles. This is by far my favorite metaphysical store! read more

This is a good store, but not for what I was seeking. I came here on my way back home from being out of town and shops that fall into the fair trade, new age, lapidary, and that sort of ilk tend to have the sterling gemstone jewelry that I wear. This one didn't have much in the way of that, so not really much for me. But did have many other things. They have a lot of religious stuff for pagan followers and folks interested in metaphysical or occult practices. You'll find lots of herbs, athames, gemstones, books, tarot cards, pendulums, and so on. It's quite a large shop, too; two rooms and lots of space. They do tarot readings here as well. When I came here during the weekend, they were offering various services like tarot, and I think palmistry and astrological readings. I did take a look at their tarot decks because I like ones with interesting art and collect several, but they had mostly standard decks you'll find at similar shops; nothing really new or interesting for me. If you're not familiar with Elgin, you'll need to rely on GPS; this shop is on a frontage road near Judson and in an you have to get to it in a somewhat odd way, so using a digital map will probably be your best bet. Obviously I do not know the owner(s) background... so I'm reserving judgment on the use of the exonym for Romani people in the name of the shop. read more

See all

Quite literally the only Wiccan/spiritual shop in the area - and for a good reason. From their endless array of herbs and spices to their crystal table, it's guaranteed that not only will you find what you came for, but you shall leave with more than you could ever imagine. A returning visit is beyond question. read more

Absolutely love this place and felt so comfortable inside. I know nothing and they were patient enough to answer the 100's of questions I had. Will be back. read more

I drove almost an hour away to go see this place! they have an amazing selection of literally everything! I got a mystery box and i think it was so worth the price. read more

Love love this place. Such helpful staff, seriously open to amswering all my millions of questions and they have a huge inventory of stuff from candles, books, stones, ect ect. I would highly recommend checking this place out- it's a hidden gem. I've lived in the area for 8 years and never knew this place was hidden around the corner. I found this place on Yelp, and I will say the 5 star reviews definitely reflect this place. It's a great business to support. read more

Gypsy haven is an AWESOME place, with awesome workers and an even more awesome owner. They're so king and helpful, very knowledgeable. Good energy all around! read more

This is my absolute favorite Metaphysical shop I've visited so far!!!!!! The staff is very friendly and EXTREMELY helpful!!!!! I was able to get absolutely everything I was looking for from herbs ( they have quite an inventory!) to crystals, to incense, and tarot cards. Their selection really surprised me!!!!! There were so many decks of tarot as well as oracle! Mind you these are just a few of the things that they carry. I have gone back quite a few times and they are always adding new inventory. There are some truly beautiful pieces in the shop. The owners are incredible people!!!!!!!!! I felt an immediate sense of peace the very first time I went there and will continue to go there for all of my spiritual needs. Blessings to you all read more

I wish I could've loved this place. The two young girls up front felt like they were staring at us, and they seemed to have "pegged" us as teenagers from metaphysical tiktok, to the point where they gave my friend a lecture that she didn't want or need, and were generally rude. They did have a lovely selection of herbs and candles, but I wish they had raw stones and a larger selection of information about other types of witchcraft from around the world. Sadly, I don't think I'll be coming back. read more

This place is one of my favorite shops to come for my spiritual needs. As soon you walk in it is such a welcoming, everyone is so friendly and knowledgeable and ready to tackle all questions. The location is weird but it really does match its aesthetic by literally being a "hidden gem." There is ALWAYS something to look at and the jewelry is always top notch and great to give as gifts! I am definitely going to be a regular here read more

The staff are extremely rude here. The employees are too busy giving love advice to their friends and don't even acknowledge you when you need help. I was planning on spending a good amount of money here, but the employees are so rude. I would highly recommend not coming to this shop, and finding a different shop. One employee in particular that works there puts off a lot of negative energy, and I would advise to stay far away. read more

I absolutely love this store and the staff that works there everyone is super friendly and always ready to help. Their selection is widespread they have the best crystals in my opinion and have a wide variety of books and journals to help research and start your path. read more

i thought i really liked this place, but reflecting there's a lot of issues. first off, "g*psy" is a slur towards Romani women, and to use it in your business name is disgraceful. please further educate yourself. and second, you carry and sell white sage, a closed practice to indigenous people. this store is not run by indigenous people, nor do i believe it is run by Romani women. as a metaphysical shop, i'd think they would be more on top of things and know better than to be so disrespectful to multiple cultures. if the name were to be changed and they were to stop carrying white sage, i would have no complaints. read more

This is one cool ass store in who would have thunked it...Elgin! I can spend an hour plus in here looking at all the cool and unique items they offer. I have gotten some of the best gifts ever here for my friends and they always ask where I found the gem of a gift! The owners are lovely, warm and passionate about their wares. BTW, Ash...screw you for giving this lovely shop 1 star because the owners had a family emergency. Think about it. You are the poster child for biatch. read more

I've been here a couple of times. Always love coming here. Great selection of herbs and they have all colors of candles. Wish they had natural stones. But still a great place and love the incense. read more

Such an awesome place! It's off the beaten path, but definitely worth it. They have a beautiful array of herbs, oils, incense, stones, and other Wiccan supplies. The room further back in the store is especially cool. I would recommend going the extra miles to get here rather than Evolve in Crystal Lake. They are both cool shops, but the prices at Gypsy Haven are much more reasonable. read more

I decided to go check out this shop because I just started learning about crystals. There is a nice selection of jewelry and crystals. They have three different rooms filled with all kinds of awesome stuff. It was fun just looking around at all the stuff they had to offer. I was specifically looking for a jade stone but they didn't carry anything jade. The owner recommended me to check out Evolve. They also have their own podcast which is really interesting. Definitely worth stopping in. I'll be back! read more

The Gypsy Haven - Spiritual Shop Near Me - Elgin, Illinois

Love this place! The man at the desk was extremely helpful and calm; aided my Aunt in understanding how to help her house be rid of bad stuff. She has very little knowledge but a lot of belief, so this information helped soothe her and was very kind of him. He also wasn't pressuring- did his own thing until we asked for help. There is a large variety of things for such a small store, and I absolutely loved how it was set up, arranged, etc. I will probably come back next time I'm in town, and my aunt will be in touch about her house. The space is very grounded and calm. Although I don't identify as neopagan or Wiccan, I felt very welcome and assured- they in the store draw from many cultures including Egyptian, psychic, Celtic, European, African, Hindu, etc. stock includes but is not limited to: clothing, jewelry and talismans from many cultures, tarot and oracle cards, divinity tools, sage and other burning sticks, a large variety of incense, gemstones and crystals, carved wooden tools, what looked like kettles (I'm not extremely versed in this), "fairy" powder etc, empty Leather journals- grimoires, books on everything from fairies to astral projection to natural magic, cute signs and decorations about nature-loving culture, and many more. the store front is nice, but the street is kind of sketchy and smells like fish. I loved the small town vibe that I got, though. The is free public parking across the street. read more

This shop is amazing! It's bigger than it looks, and had pretty much everything you could possibly need. I spent a long time in the shop and was able to stock up. The prices are very reasonable. I can't wait to go back. read more

The Gypsy Haven is worth the drive. I try to make it there once a month for my crystal needs, incense, books, and anything else I may need. I am dying to go inside their classroom and see what they offer in there. The shop is large and beautiful and the woman who runs it is extremely helpful. She helped me so much in choosing my first tarot deck and her and her husband even helped me into my car when my haul was so big lol!! I love just hanging out and they truly make me feel so comfortable. Thank you Gypsy Haven! read more

I live a solid 40 minutes from here, but I have no problem making the drive. Such kind people work here. Not once have I had a complaint. They deserve so much more success in the future. read more

Very expensive for natural crystals as if they had gold in them. I'm from New York and have access to cheaper beautiful crystals.

This shop is an absolute treasure. I found everything I needed. I loved how the store was organized, it made finding everything very easy. The atmosphere was calm and inviting, and the shop smelled good as well! I have to give it 4 stars only because when I walked in there was an employee who was eating lunch right at front, and in doing so was not wearing a mask. Additionally, there was another staff member who was moving journals and stock who was also wearing her mask incorrectly under her nose. This shop really is phenomenal, I can't stress that enough. However, due to our current health climate and the pandemic, I think all stores that are open who demand strict guidelines for guests and customers should also abide by that same rule. Again, the stock, the atmosphere, the whole store is magnificent. read more

INCREDIBLEY sweet owners! They were so kind and helpful to me, even when they were having issues inside the store over the summer with the A/C. They have a wide selection of herbs and teas which is perfect. Really nice jewelry and tons of books, candles, and clothes! A really welcoming and witchy place for all your needs! I definitely will be back in again as soon as possible! read more

Loved the selection of tarot decks, the staff was knowledgeable and incredibly helpful. The hours are really convenient and they had a wonderful selection of a wide variety of items and all were very reasonably priced. I will definitely be going back. I was on a mission and got exactly what I came for. There is still so much more to explore!! read more

I got to visit for the first time a couple of weeks ago and it was great! So many awesome products at great prices! I'm just starting out on my path and can't wait to go back for some more supplies!! read more

This is a really awesome spiritual shop! It's pretty big and has pretty much everything you need! The owners were friendly and assisted me throughout my visit and answered my questions! I will definitely be back for my spiritual needs! read more

Awesome store with great variety and very good prices! The vibes you get when you walk in are warm and welcoming definitely one of my favorite Wiccan shops read more

Nice little store, the owners are amazing and the prices are very reasonable for the high quality of products they offer. They offer a large range of herbs, resins, and various other things you might need for your ritual. I'll definitely be a returning customer. read more

The people who work here are extremely friendly and helpful, and they have a good stock at great prices!!! I would definitely recommend this place! read more

Elizabeth is a rare gem. She and her husband Shay own the shop and are both incredibly knowledgeable and helpful. On my first visit, we arrived without knowing the hours and were closed. They happened to be in the store and graciously allowed us in treating us as if we were no bother. They both dropped everything they were doing to assist my niece and myself. Wonderful shop with so much! Best burning incense ever! They home make. Five stars! read more

The owners are warm, welcoming and go out of their way to be helpful. The store is great, I find something new each time I visit and if I'm looking for something they don't carry they'll bring it in for me! They are so accommodating which is refreshing in this impersonal age of doing business. I'd like to see a chair or two by the books (and more books!) so I could sit and peruse them better but I realize their space might be better utilized by showing their wares. Love the overall vibe of this space and the energy and the selection. read more

What a great store and great owners. Beth helped me to understand what I need to know and do. She's a great listener and teacher. Lots of information and passion went along to our conversation. read more

Never new this little treasure was right here in Elgin! Lovely shop with lots to look at and choose from especially considering the small but very quaint space. They also have very reasonable prices which was surprising because they carry very nice items. Elizabeth was lovely, warm and helpful. Looking forward to going back soon. read more

The owners were very welcoming, allowed us to look around and get a feel for they shop. I love the layout with so many amazing and interesting things to look at! Definitely will be back for more!!! read more

Very large selection of herbs, oils and incense as well as a good selection of books, tarot decks, and the many other supplies. Top that off with knowledgeable and friendly owners and you have a great store!! read more

The owners and energy is worth the drive. Love this shop. It not only has a great selection but they are so willing and eager to help you understand your purchases. My friend and I liked it so much we went in 2 days in a row. The gentleman taught us how to learn and understand the decks we bought the night before, it was very helpful and he didn't have to do it, but did. 10/10 would recommend. Love it. read more

Let me start off by saying, I've never actual written one of these. Never felt the need to review a business because I guess the reviews a business has dictates how I should feel about said business. After doing a little research on Google looking for local Wicca shops in the area, this gem popped into my life. I was immediately intrigued by the fact that I've been living in Elgin all my life, and this beautiful amazing store was right down the street from my house for a year now and I had never even realized. I suppose to it's due to the fact I've just recently come into myself and my own spirituality. Scratch that, it IS due to the fact I have tapped into my inner self. But it immediately intrigued me right off the bat. I had made plans to go to this location as soon as I got my next big check, ((little splurge purchase I was trying to manifest I suppose)) but one Sunday morning I woke up and instantly felt the desire to go check it out a week before and see what they had in stock. I had been practicing Tarot (or I guess learning about it) and really needed my own physical deck (I was using a app that I could do readings directly from my phone I had downloaded off the Google Play store, which I felt like was ironic to be using). So I decided to stop in and see for myself. From the minute I walked into the shop to the beautiful, kind gesture Elizabeth & her husband Shay ended with as I was paying for my items, I could feel the amazing energy within the store. As I walked around and looked at the amazing selection of tools they had in their shop it astounded me how beautiful everything was. They had everything from Tarot decks to herbs, to beautiful clothing, posters, crystals, books, it's like the store had everything that I could possibly imagine. I instantly was drawn to a Tarot deck and decided to put it aside to purchase, Elizabeth had also assured me if I was interested in something that they hadn't had in stock that all I needed to do was tell them and they could have it by the following week. TALK ABOUT TRUE, GENUINE, BEAUTIFUL B U S I N E S S. Now that I think about it, the minute I walked into the store I felt the genuineness of these two souls that I had never come into contact with before. You can tell within a half of a millisecond whether or not you will be connect with a person. And I instantly felt that connection towards Elizabeth. I also picked up some crystal stones for my two friends and I. As I was getting ready to pay for my items, Elizabeth had asked me if I had sage to cleanse the stones. When I replied no, she kindly showed me how the process works and gave me a little tip on charging them as well. This simple, yet powerful gesture was really what stuck with me. I don't think I've ever encountered two strangers that made me feel more at home. I'm hoping to visit this home away from home very often and even joked with Elizabeth that I'd be a regular ((guess it's not really a joke because it's true)). I will continue to support this lovely, amazing business as long as they are there, and much there after. It's the little things in this post that make the whole experience for me 5 stars. In a time where business is run by the amount of money that's being circulated throughout the walls, I'm relieved to see a thriving business that truly cares for their customers. Shay and Elizabeth, if you're reading this I wish the best for your lives and The Gypsy Haven, you're amazing people and I hope you continue to forever lead these great lives you've made for yourself. Can't wait to stop in and say hi, until next time. -Sailor read more

This is a wonderful and extremely well stocked store. I found herbs that I had been looking for (and was unable to find elsewhere) and was able to purchase them in the quantity I wanted versus prepackaged ones that I've found at other stores. In addition to this, the store has a wide selection of candles, tarot, incense, books, gems, and really all the items to set up an alter. The owner, Elizabeth, was extremely friendly, even while we were taking a long time to gather our goods! She was knowledgeable, helpful, and easy going. She even makes special orders if she does not stock an item. My husband and I will definitely be going back here! read more
