I had two immediately assist me and several others checked in as I browsed the store. I watched different employees provide amazing assistance to the gentlemen in the store who needed a little extra help trying to find gifts for their ladies and daughters in their lives. They have a little of everything - clothes, shoes, handbags, housewares, seasonal items, jewelry, a room for baby clothes and gifts, and a large room for local sorority clothes and gifts. If you're looking for it, it's probably there. When checking out, the ladies explained the return policy in depth to every customer in line. (They have done this every time I have gone.) Customers should remember that even the seller is at the mercy of the supplier, so if they have to go by a specific brand's policy for returning items or exchanging them, it's not the fault of the small business owner. I listened to them work with a fussy customer, and they were polite and empathetic, and they explained the situation. By the end, while not ideal for immediate gratification, a resolution was in the works. That was great service! I can't wait to return after the holidays to do a little personal shopping and find some nice little happies for myself!

I used this business for wedding invitations and took lots of time to meet with them to go over exactly what was expected. My wedding invitations were not only late but multiple items were missing when they were sent out. For example: there was no ribbon, wax seal or onion skin paper. Please tell me how you send out wedding invitations unfinished? I just don't understand. The owner would only respond by email. It's two years later and I still can't believe how unprofessional this was therefore, I felt lead to leave a review to discourage others from feeling this way.

I emailed the new changes again. And did not hear from anyone. I phoned two days later and asked if they received my changes. I was told by the person on the phone yes. They received the changes. And that they were very busy. !! She was very curt and acted like I was bothering her. Needless to say. I never heard back from anyone via telephone or email. I will be taking my business elsewhere

If you have asthma don't go in here. I have healthy lungs but I hated breathing the air and got a…read morebit of a headache after being in there. Don't get me wrong, I burn incense and candles at home, but having so much scented material in paper and open containers in a small space does not make good air. It was hard for me to determine how any of the incense smelled because I could only smell The One True Scent of everything mixed together. Anyway, this place is fine and typical. Has stones, jewelry (expensive), incense and incense burners, books, tarot. Doesn't have figurines, clothing, or smoking paraphernalia like some places; whether thats good or bad is up to you. They have a decent selection of affordable gems. Didn't find anything I really wanted though; many of the crafted items were poor quality, it'd be nice if they replaced the badly made wooden boxes with used or antique ones, and maybe included some local candlemakers and other artisans.

The Queen Bee remains one of my favorite gift stores / home goods stores in Baton Rouge. This is…read moreone of the places I always drop by to find gifts for colleagues and friends. They have a little of everything, from cute gift and coffee table books to stationary to candles and jewelry to all sorts of home accessories. I am always greeted with a smile and given my space to explore. Staff offers assistance with gift ideas, gives the history behind the products they carry, and are willing to go above and beyond to make sure you are satisfied. About a year ago, they moved around the corner (same building) to a bigger space, and now you can see the treasures a little better. While some items are pricey, The Queen Bee isn't charging more than you would pay to purchase them elsewhere, and items go on sale now and then, so you can find even more to take home with you. The Queen Bee supports other local businesses in the area, and now and then you will find they have items like a local baker's cookies (don't pass them up). I will continue coming back time and time again.

Hi, I had The Queen Bee do some Christmas wrapping for me…read morethis season and I want to tell all what happen. I dropped off my gifts that I needed wrapped and gave instructions on how i wanted it done. Well, Christmas morning when my wife opened up her gifts, she found her cloths I had bought her still in the plastic bags, plus the prices showing. I was so pissed and embarrassed at the same time, but what could I do. I went back on 12/27 and told them of my displeasement and they appoligized, but didn't offer anything to offsett their mistake. I spent over $65.00 to have 6 gifts wrapped (Too High), even though the wrapping was beautiful, they could have at least offered me a FREE wrap on my next visit, but nothing. Plus they make no refunds or exchanges either, what a place! I gave them a chance to make it right, but....
