I love the selection at this store. This is my second visit. I drove from LA and arrived late…read moreafternoon. I entered the store and wasn't greeted. I started shopping as it was late in the day...I had no idea what time they were closing but they were open when I got there.The couple burst into a fight while I was in the store. Shouting at each other and acting like they were on judge Judy. I felt like my parents were fighting. It was uncomfortable and awkward so I walked to the back to give them room to feud...the store is giant and has lots of alcoves and areas. Great stuff! I then asked after they'd simmered down "is your other shop open for a bit?" I was responded to by a look up and down and a " ehhhh it's between opened and closed." Okkkkkk. Weird. I then asked continued shopping and asked "do you know what this is? " and the male owner said "can you move I want to bring stuff in" I didn't move, instead I asked the price....he paused and said 95. I moved out of his way and said "I do t know what's going on here here but the vibes are insane and terrible." "Yeah I know sorry about that" all I said was "yeah it's terrible" and I left. Drove 2 hours to shop here. I will never return. Get a divorce or don't work together maybe. You guys are wild!

There are two Whimsy locations in Carp. This one is off the beaten path. I didn't care for it,…read morewhich is a personal preference, given the other reviews. It felt like the merchandise had been thrown in to the space with little regard for organization, let alone styling for visual effect. Given the charm of the merchandising of the Linden Avenue shop, this did not compare in a good light. The exterior has a lot going for it, but the interior needed a lot of attention when we visited on New Year's Eve. There's a fine line between vintage items and antiques presenting as interesting and collectible versus appearing to be dusty old junk. Takes an artistic hand to display the objects in a creative and intriguing way. I wasn't feeling the charm or whimsy at this Whimsy.

Seems they display items from few different vendors but I didn't have the chance to ask .. there is parking on location

Now being the only 2 people in this small intimate space, I was so uncomfortable being she didn't acknowledge my presence at all, not helpful, not interested if I had any interest.. it was thee most unpleasant service ever experienced.. with in a minute of me entering, a young couple came in, received the same welcome, and walked out. I spent 2 minutes looking around, and then walking out as well just for the simple fact I couldn't have felt more that I was a bother to her. Very disappointed, it seems like a neat place to explore if you're feeling welcomed.
