    An eclectic mix of items can be found here, which makes it an interesting place to stop. You may have fun finding a gift here too. I didn't really expect to find anything here but I've been curious about it for about a decade. There's apparel, mostly with a Chicago bent to it; some children's clothing; cards; snarky socks; and even a large wall of tarot cards, which surprised me. The shopkeeper was friendly as well.

    While I was browsing through local Knick-knack stores on Yelp, I came across a picture of mug with a statement that was extremely relatable to my daily live. Wanna know what that was? Sure, there you go. "This Meeting is Bullsh*t." We wanted to give this mug to hubby's superior because he has got the sense of humor, and we knew he would appreciate this. We visited "Enjoy, an Urban General Store" in Lincoln Square on a Saturday evening. It was certainly poppin' with customers who were doing their last-minute Christmas shopping. We didn't face too much difficulty to locate the walls of mugs. Beside purchasing that "bullsh*t meeting" mug, hubby got me a "let that sh*t go" mug. It also featured a funky yoga pose, which cracked me up! There were other fun, giftable items for individuals with personality (perhaps with subtle vulgarness or sarcasm). Any pet lovers on your list of gift-giving? I would say check this place out because they probably would like some of the whimsical messages. As expected, a cool, hip shop like this wasn't going to be a dollar store nesting in the neighborhood corner. I was fully aware of the higher price tags, yet I adored lots of unique things I saw there and was willing to splurge a bit. The associates were cheerful and friendly. Gift-wrapping service was available upon request. We were also informed that they had a temporary pop-up shop for the holidays at the Old Paciugo location nearby. I believe this allowed the rest of backstock merchandise to display and helped increase sales. In addition, patronizing local businesses is always a good idea. I was glad that I did so. This strip of Lincoln Square is close to the CTA Western Brown Line station. For those who choose to drive, paid street parking can be found along Lawrence Ave.

    My tree is now complete

    Enjoy has something for everyone, I think. From candles that smell like your favorite cocktails (Sazerac, Mint Julep, etc), to horse head masks and crazy cat lady action figures, you're sure to find something you most definitely don't need but will buy anyway because...crazy cat lady action figure. This is a great stop for unique gifts, fun socks, cards, kids stuff and especially white elephant gifts. Where else are you going to find a Christmas ornament of a pink and purple unicorn dressed in lederhosen? You know your tree NEEDS this to be complete. Prices seemed decent, there's a good amount of parking nearby and it's only a block or so off the Brown line.

    There were probably at least 50 items I wanted to buy while I was here. Cute, sassy, pun-ny, rude, quirky, sarcastic, ridiculous, prideful - you name it, they got it. This is my kind of store. So many items spoke to me on a deep level that for a sec I thought they were reading my mind I ended up buying a coin purse and a zipper pouch by Blue Q - a line of pencil cases, totes, coin purses, different size pouches etc. made with 95% recycled material... so many fun designs and very durable! Would definitely recommend this place if you're gift-shopping or just feel like treating yourself :)

    What a "statement" general store! Need somethin fun and unique that you wouldn't find on the shelves of your big box store? Hard to please friend that says you didn't pick up a last minute gift at the drug store? Whether you or that "friend" is younger or older.. you can find desk stuff, art pieces, functional home goods, jewelry, and funky things like sock puppets. I know, I got you at sock puppets! Oh and funny shaped ice to spice up your life! Another fabulous reason to stop in! You can't get to Lincoln Square? They've got their goods available for sale online. It doesn't take the place of teetering around in this cute store, but it'll do if you just can't get here. It sort of reminds you of that popular online store catered to the creative-types. But, I've found my new go-to for unique finds in one stop for those in my life I want cheer up or thank! Thanks E!

    Enjoy has so many cute and unique gag gifts! It's also a great place to buy Chicago souvenirs. Be sure to visit the funny magnet selection at the back of the store. For the young and old, there's a little something for everyone.

    Cute packing!!

    Product selection is great, fun place to shop. Always find multiple items. Actually only went in there for a hat but left over $150 later.

One evening when we were given an estimated wait time of 30 minutes by Spacca Napoli for a patio table, we found that an excellent chance to visit Hazel, a mere 5-minute walk from the pizzeria. As soon as we walked inside Hazel, a friendly man behind the counter promptly greeted us.  I was impressed by the huge and well-curated collection of goods for all ages and styles.  Daughter was so excited to show me around as if it's her own store, lol.  On one wall was a huge display of greeting cards.  There were also jewelry, accessories, baby gifts, housewares, and gifts for men.  Prices were quite reasonable.  If you need a gift, there's really no excuse of not finding one to buy. We were there for 10 minutes having a great time browsing around, then my phone rang and I was told that our table was ready, so we hurried out without buying anything.  The friendly man behind the counter still politely said "thank you" to us! As now I read that they close at 7:00 pm during weekdays, I am even more impressed, because we actually stepped in the store 10 minutes before they closed, and they still welcomed us!  We will definitely be back!

This very tiny shop has a variety of items that would be perfect if you need to pick up a gift for someone. They have candles, greeting cards, jewelry, and several baby items. I ended up buying a cute little onesie that has is designed to look like the Chicago flag but with hearts in place of the stars. it's so cute and I can't wait to put it on my little ones. They had several other onesies that were cute. I mentioned to the shopkeeper that I wanted to get a little bean onesie, and she mentioned they carry them but they sell out so quickly and the woman who she gets them from is backed up in stock.It makes sense to me because they're adorable! I didn't realize they had them here so it's good I could pick it up from here if I can't find it elsewhere. Parking is on the street BUT you're in luck because the Brown Line station is half a block away. There's also street parking on Damen and possibly the surrounding streets (not sure, but because it's near a train station I'd suspect it might be permit parking on the side streets).
