The owner of the store tells employees not to talk or be friendly with customers. This is incredibly unwelcoming and causes the employees to act soulless and robotic, even people in these reviews mention it. The more friendly you are, the more people want to do business with you, believe me, I worked retail for a decade, I have a clue. I had made a friend in the bayshore store that kept getting into trouble talking to us, but talking to her actually made us buy more things! One time I came in when the store had an hour left open and the girl that was there was being rude and rushing us, so she could leave and close the store! Turns out it was the daughter of the owner. To make matters worse, I bought a heart crystal and gave it to a friend. Apparently it was a fake crystal! My friend dropped it by accident! I don't necessarily blame the store since anyone can get scammed, but I would just say be careful and make sure the crystal is real. Especially with those prices! The thing that gets me the most about Breathe is the soulless ness and unfriendliness vibe that the employees are forced into. There's so many other crystal stores where employees are friendly and fun to talk to! Not Breathe, it just gives me a "meh" feeling, I'd much rather go somewhere else than breathe. It's a shame collective consciousness and tranquility within closed down, those were really fun and had brought in a fun community!

"Would you like a cappuccino sir"…read more I'm asked as I entered the space. No, no thank you I replied as I walked into the store that was closed a few years back. They recreated the store exactly like it was in 2019. Walking in Monday afternoon, I see there's a cooking class in the back. Lots of smiles from the customer service peeps, I just love Sur La Table. I have credit card points that I'll be using for my purchase. I found a two loaf baguette tray and a bread scorer. The counter person was so helpful, she took my digital gift card (Her first time) and gave me a military discount. Sur La Table, welcome back! It will be a pleasure to shop your store once again.

If you don't mind sharing the space and resources, sign up for anything! Croissant - So fun making classic croissants, pan au chocolat, and ham and cheese croissants. You work in reverse order where you make the croissants first, then you go back and learn to make the dough. The dough you make is used for the next class. They said the class would take 6 hours if you did everything in one day. Beef Wellington - Not enough cooking. WE rolled out the dough, made the duxelle, and the side broccolini. We did not sear the meat and we didn't get to check the temp for the perfect cook. Our beef was overcooked and completely grey. On to my next adventure...

Local retail seems to be becoming less and less. All Seasons at Ari's Treasures in Setauket epitomizes what a local retailer should be. The owners, Jeff and Monica Aston are natives to the Setauket area and are a pleasure to deal with. I have been shopping there for several years and I feel that they really keep in tune with the changing needs of the community. Their inventory reflects the quaint, beachy vibe of our beautiful hamlet on the North Shore of Long Island. I purchased everything from beautiful window candles which are on year-round in my house, to soothing chimes. Most recently, my husband and I enlisted Jeff to do a beautiful custom sign for our son's wedding. We couldn't be happier with the result and cannot wait to give the kids the sign in three weeks.

Without her help, I would have left without getting anything. Thank you!
