When I walked in it was pretty busy but when I checked out it was just me and one other customer. It made me upset because if I'm paying $10 for a book that's $4 at target I would hope to at least have a friendly interaction with the employee ( although I think she was one of the owners). I love supporting small businesses but sometimes it's easier to support big retailers unfortunately.

I stopped by, the location in Sunnyvale, to see if they had any Christmas gift wrap on sale. My supply is running low and it would be nice to get some for next year at a good price. They had quite a bit of Christmas decor and some Christmas wrapping paper 40% off. I selected 5 different rolls of gift wrap and headed to the checkout. This should last me a few years. The associate at the counter was very friendly. We had a nice chat while she wrung up my items. This location has excellent customer service. They also have a post office inside which is very convenient. I'm glad I stopped by today.

The art of reading physical books and the wonderment of the theater of the mind conjuring up vivid imagery and a unique perspective is the lost art of use of the imagination with reading. The way you might interpret stories like "Dune", "Harry Potter" or any books turned into film/movie adaptations is way more vivid when you read the book than watch the movie. Come by here and check it out! They have lots of books... as well as a "Buy Back" program for certain books too.

Very poor service. I had been shopping at this store for over 10 years and this year I have had the…read moreworst ever service. They don't call and inform you despite taking your number down when they have held an item for you. To them whoever pays money first they honor that which agreed is classic business principle. But then 10 years of being a repeat customer there is no such thing as customer satisfaction towards loyal customers - all of this is out through the door. To the owner if you can't honor something don't promise. Never returning to this store for any future purchase. You lost a loyal customer today which to you of course is not a deal breaker. You have plenty more to throw money at you that you wouldn't care about one customer lost. Lastly teach your front desk customer handling.

For a guy that takes an inordinate amount of photos, I am surprisingly unobservant. This place is…read morejust three doors down from the Posh Bagel on Main St. How is it I just noticed this fantastic store? I mean, stores that sell candy and chocolate are my jam. But it was invisible to me. Until today, anyway. I am so happy I finally found it. Because Gourmet Works is much more than a store that sells candy and chocolate. In fact, as the name would suggest, it's more of a Gourmet food store and Gift Shop than a Chocolate Shop. But it's also a hella cool chocolate shop and that's the main reason I will be sure to return. Right when you walk in the door you are surrounded by an astonishingly large variety of items that would make the perfect gift for a loved one, or for yourself. Because, I ain't gonna lie, there were at least a dozen items that I considered buying for myself. I thought to myself, you know, I do so much for me, and it seems I rarely properly thank myself for my devoted patronage and self care. If you are interested in high quality gourmet gifts, Gourmet Works is definitely the place to go! They carry so many products you would be hard pressed to find elsewhere. Gourmet Salts, Dried Herbs, Pasta Sauces, Dried Pasta, Curry Sauces, Masala Simmer Sauce, Special Preserves and Jams. An impressive, well-curated selection. Then, at the back of the store you find the kind of Chocolate display case that dreams are made of. Oh my Lord! Just the Truffle side alone would be enough to melt anyone's heart. But the other side, with the astonishing variety of hand dipped chocolates is where I lost it. I saw the Almond Bark and stopped dead in my tracks. I stared at that Almond Bark. The Almond Bark stared back at me. We were locked into that stare down for what seemed like an eternity. I was sure neither of us would ever give in. But then I blinked. Somehow I became aware that the wonderful woman behind the counter was asking me if she could help me. As I regained my senses, suddenly I felt so embarrassed. How long had I been staring at that Almond Bark? How many times had she tried to get my attention? I had no idea. I tried to play it off like there was nothing going on between me and that Almond Bark. I casually inquired about some Chocolate Covered Caramels with Sea Salt on a totally different shelf in the display case. Then, of course, I had to buy a couple of those Chocolate Covered Carmels with Sea Salt, to cover up the whole situation with me and the Almond Bark. I purchased a couple ordinary, un-chocolate covered Caramels with Sea Salt too. The woman behind the counter couldn't have been more gracious. She didn't let on that she knew exactly what was happening and I wasn't fooling anyone with the whole Chocolate Covered Caramels with Sea Salt charade. So, my thanks to Gourmet Works, and the gracious woman behind the counter, Padmaja (her family owns Gourmet Works). It was such a pleasure to shop at your wonderful store!

I've had some so-so experiences with Edible Arrangements company as a whole. To celebrate my gf's…read morebirthday, this seemed like the best gifting surprise since she isn't a big fan of sugary sweets and carbs. I decided to go online, place an order for delivery, & pray for the best. This particular Sunnyvale location was assigned for my purchase - I assume it is one of the closest locations to the delivery address. The ordering process was straight forward and I went ahead with the Birthday Berry Fruit Arrangement. To my surprise, there was no delivery fee for my purchase. Since I was already paying a decent amount, that little "discount" was appreciated. Fast forward, that "no charge" ended up being an additional fee. Lmao!!! Not sure why it was listed as free delivery during the time of ordering and then a charge was tacked on AFTER but whatever. I just needed my purchase to be presentable and delivered in a timely manner. Since I had the time, I quickly did a Yelp search on this EA location. The reviews are pretty terrible to say the least and I began to stress a bit. The email confirmation sent gives you an area to "track your order" which would be great IF it was accurate and actually worked. The hours for the store's business hour stated 9am and by noon, my order was still only listed as "RECEIVED BY STORE". I gave it some more time and by 1pm, the status never changed and I immediately gave them a call. The gentleman who picked up had a very thick Filipino?? accent. He was courteous but it just took a bit of time to get the info I was requesting for. I ended the call with him confirming that the order was received and that the order was in fact "made". They were awaiting for the delivery. Fast forward: Hours passed and yet there was still no delivery. I checked the status of the order again to see that it had changed to "out for delivery" yet nothing seemed to be happening. I'm kind of frustrated at this point and was mentally preparing myself of wasted money when I get a text from my girl regarding the surprise she received!! Whoo Hoo!! The delivery made it to her home safely and according to her, the staff did a good job. I am over the moon and would recommend this particular Edible Arrangements. Don't let the reviews overly stress you out. While I can't speak for previous customers, I am pretty satisfied. 4/5 stars because of the tracking system doesn't work. It is currently 8:48pm and the tracking still states "out for delivery". Lmao!!! It also deducted some points in my eyes regarding the delivery fee. If the business was upfront about the cost, I wouldn't have batted an eye but to list that the delivery was complimentary and then revoke that... meh. At the end of the day, I can say I had a good experience with this Sunnyvale location. I'd easily place another order through them and this time I'll expect additional charges.
