love visiting here. The store has drink spot at the entrance those who have a drink from outside. Inside is very cozy so if you've already been shopping from other store and have store bags it could be hard to move around. store is very tiny......... Weekends are always very crowded. When you see something you like and thinking of getting it, grab it! I came back here few weeks later and the item was gone! :'( I highly recommend here :) I attached some pictures and I hope it helps. summer 2026 read more

A unique bohemian little shop with unique/artsy cards, stationary, notepads. I came here because I had heard about their stickers. They have a large section that's just rolls of stickers--cute, sparkly, but more like grade school stickers. And that's okay--I wouldn't mind including a unicorn sticker in my correspondence every now and then. They are only a dollar per sheet. This is a VERY small shop and it was super crowded when I visited. We were all standing on top of each other and having to squeeze around each other. Staff is very nice and it's still worth stopping in, maybe mid-week is better . . . and it's right next to Washington Square Park, is close to Goods for the Study (another stationary shop). I visited in combination with these two things, as well as a visit to the nearby Salmagundi Club (reviewed separately) and made a whole morning/early afternoon of it. read more

Super cute & small but packed with stuff! Loved the sticker section and the plentiful cards. Lots of trinkets too. Definitely a great place to pick up something for a small gift! There are steps up and a step down into the shop - it's also tight so not super mobility friendly. LGBTQ friendly! read more

Greenwich Letterpress is a fabulous store to visit on Christopher Street. Great cards and postcards. Souvenirs for everyone. I have to return the o take a photo. Located in a beautiful brownstone on the second floor. Lots of great places to see in this neighborhood. read more

a cute shop with an extensive selection of (somewhat) unique greeting cards. Very impressed by their options for custom wedding invitations. Relatively small, not a huge selection, but a nice distraction while strolling down Christopher Street read more

Cutest stationery store. Small, but I could spend a couple hours perusing the cards and paper goods.

Very nice little shop in the Village with an excellent selection of cards and attentive customer service.

The vintage sticker selection here is fantastic, and only $1 per sheet! If you love stationery and crafts, this place is perfect. Teachers and sticker fans will really enjoy it. Definitely worth a visit. Right next to Washington Square Park!!! read more

Love love love this shop - it's so much fun and incredibly well curated. Stickers from my childhood, puzzles, all kids of fun doodads, and obviously charming stationery - I never leave empty-handed. Everyone who works there is so nice. It's perfect around Xmas as well! read more

Great little shop with lots of unique cards and gifts. Helpful staff and great vibes all around

Stationery stores in New York are all so unique, and the vibe inside Greenwich Letterpress is to di for. Stickers, pens, cards, you name it. I loved looking around at all the eclectic options, but I found it lacking in term of selections when it came to other stores like Goods for the Study. I can tell that this store is more intentional about the things they choose to stock, which contributes to a really great atmosphere. Definitely stop by! read more

Greenwich Letterpress - Cards & Stationery Near Me - New York, New York

No. I wasted a whole evening finding the place--it's insanely crowded & annoying with nothing decent. I RARELY say this type of review... I'm too old for this crap. Go to Paper Source and/or BLICK. Better yet, go to both on the same day. Your mind will be blown. You will be pleasantly (and artistically) exhausted. Your wallet will feel a ding of satisfaction. You'll rest easy. But this place? I walked out empty handed and sorry for the experience. Not even the stickers were cute. I felt cheated! read more

Adorable little shop that is great for birthday or holiday gifts! Wide selection of cards, stationary, and other cute goods.

While walking over from Varick street to Union Square, I needed to get a birthday card in between somewhere. I assumed I would just wind up at a Papyrus or something, but when Greenwich Letterpress appeared on the ol' Yelp app I was pleasantly surprised. As of late, I have wanted to direct more of my spending towards smaller shops such as this (instead of larger chains) so this gave me the perfect opportunity to do so. Greenwich Letterpress is an absolutely adorable little card shop. It is not very big, but that is part of its charm. Cards line the walls and there are some small tables with extra goods on them. I focused on birthday cards and was pleasantly surprised to find that they were rather unique and almost a bit less ultra polished than your typical cards from Hallmark or Papyrus. Like the shop itself, all the cards had a wonderful charm about them. Service was very friendly and despite a warning on the card reader machine about it taking several minutes it went very quickly. If you're in the area, Greenwich Letterpress is a great little shop to get a card! read more

I have been visiting Greenwich Letterpress for a few years now and always get the kitchiest and cutest stationary and cards. I have purchased gift wrap, pins, stickers, pens...you name it...from this shop and have always loved everything I have purchased. Their curated items for sale and high quality of goods really make this a true NYC gem. I can't wait to have a wedding one day so they can make my invitations! read more

My husband and I were thrilled with our wedding invitations & stationery from Greenwich Street Letterpress and are so happy we discovered this neighborhood gem! The invitations turned out exactly the way we envisioned and the entire process was painless. Working with Lindsay was a dream and I would recommend them to everyone. I'm really particular when it comes to the nitty gritty details and she couldn't have been more patient. I've already been back to purchase cards from them and can't wait till I can work with them again on future projects. read more

I came here looking for an engagement card. They have a good selection, but most of them were a little too plain or a little too frilly for my taste. I will say that they have the largest same-sex wedding cards I've seen, so that's pretty awesome. Their biggest selection is by far birthday cards. Some are rather plain, and I can't imagine paying that much for them. They're a little quirky, too. I'd say I'd most likely come back here for the other paper supplies, like notebooks and cards. There was some really cute stuff displayed in the center table. Now, if only I had an occasion...! read more

Fact: everyone loves getting cards. So, send more cards to your friends and family. And try to buy them here. I love this place. Its my go-spot for any type of card or small gift. It's super charming and has an amazing range of greeting cards. Plus, all the employees are super helpful and really sweet. read more

The other day (on my to Dominique Ansel Kitchen), I stumbled upon this card shop in the West Village that I'd never even heard of (and, if you know me, you should be well aware that I'm a dominant figure in the greeting-card-store scene*). They've had a storefront since 2005 and surprise, surprise - it's great! They sell a lot of independently published greeting cards (ie. the best ones), some stationary, wall decor, etc. If you find yourself on Christopher Street, you should definitely stop inside. *Yes, there is a greeting-card-store scene and no I'm not embarrassed to be in it. read more

Such a super cute & tiny place! Love the originality of all the cards, very creative. Very pricey, but they're all pretty much one of a kind and it's in the village. I bought a card for my parents, it was made to be a wedding card, but I used it for their 10 year wedding anniversary. The card was a ticket to Happily Ever After. After 10 yrs, they've gotta be there by now, right? Great place! read more

This place is a magical wonderful and a snail mailer's dream. Quirky and fun notecards for every occasion - and some that are clever enough to make you *wish* you had cause to buy them even if you don't! Especially good options for pop culture fanatics, but they also have lots of cute NYC-centric offerings. And if you're getting married, no question this should be your first stop. Their wedding invites are simply sublime and totally original. read more

Great store and would definitely be back. Mainly disappointed in their limited selections.

Love love love this place. I've been coming here for a few years and I'm always happy to give them business, as they have a great selection of cards and stationery. The store is so bright and cheerful--it is always a delight to shop here! Support local businesses!! read more

They have the best unique letterpress cards for all occasions and unique stationary items and small gifts. It is in some ways a step back in time. Very friendly helpful staff. Worthy of a visit even to browse in the West Village. Nice. read more

Best. Cards. Ever. Not too kitschy, not too cute. Just right. Really awesome selection and amazing staff. read more

This is the perfect place to go to find a unique card or some special stationary for wrapping a gift. If you knew anything about me you would know that hand made gifts and wrapping are two things I love. (sad, but true) The selection at Greenwich Letterpress is the best I have found in New York. To all my people out there...expect some sweet-ass deliveries in your mailboxes soon. read more

I've been coming to Greenwich Letterpress ever since I moved to NYC in 2012. I always get birthday cards, mother's/father's day cards, Valentine's Day cards, Christmas cards, etc here. They have an excellent selection and have cards for basically any occasion. I've never used their custom services, but I'm sure they're wonderful. The staff is friendly. The store is just the cutest, well organized, and they constantly have new items. They also have other stationery items such as stamps, twine, gift bags, stationery, calendars, etc. I've gotten a calendar here and a stationery set that I was very happy with. I recently went in to pick up birthday cards and a Valentine's Day card, and they had those little Valentine's that we all used to bring to school! I picked up one of those just for fun. The cards here are pricier than one that you'll find at Duane Reade, but they're beautiful and well made. Some are made by Greenwich Letterpress and others are from other brands. It can get a bit crowded but it's never packed. read more

It's a little bit Etsy, but a great first or last place for cards, stationery or invitations. Decent value for the quality, the selection all share a similar style -- plus some original seasonal offerings. I sometimes buy here b/c it's in my hood and I prefer cards that are blank inside. If you're wrapping a gift and want a look that stands out from the typical Container Store fare, this place could help. So, why do the people who work there seem so miserable? They always have the look of prisoners of war. read more

Sure, I could have printed business cards out from an online company and they would have been cheap and quick; they probably would have looked ok too. But I am so glad I went to Greenwich Letterpress and got beautiful old-school letterpress cards. The paper and ink are so nice. Hey, I worked hard to put those letters next to my name, I may as well honor them with a special card. Not only is the product great, but the service was so pleasant and they did everything they promised, when they told me they would. If you want a quality print product, something a bit special, Greenwich Letterpress is the place to go. read more

Letterpress printing uses physically inked type to make a deep impression & ink imprint on thick, usually cotton-content paper. This store carries gorgeous cards and stationery by various small presses across the country, carries an in-house line, and does custom printing. A nice place to pick up a beautiful, unique greeting card. Infuriatingly quaint and expensive, but worth noting 'cause it's a pretty special store. read more

The perfect place for that inbetween-friend gift. You know: you don't know him or her well enough to get a full-fledged gift, but you don't want to show up to the birthday party empty-handed. So go with the inbetween-friend gift: an expensive letterpressed card that is almost a present in itself! (P.S. If you're looking for more upscale cards, e.g. to send to your stuffy aunt, the cards here might be too whimsical for you. I'd recommend going to Kate's Paperie instead for some elegant Crane and Co. stationery.) This store's only half the size of what it used to be, because half of the storefront has been dedicated to custom design and distribution. Great news for Greenwich Letterpress, less great for those of us who miss GL's sale nook. read more

I adore stationery, & could happily peruse the selections at any card shop I come across for hours, however, I have had one too many vaguely unpleasant experiences at Greenwich Letterpress, where I felt I was under a magnifying glass, & so even though I really like some of their inventory, this is my last purchase there. I needed some greeting cards, & decided to stop in on my way home, as this is my neighborhood store. As soon as I walked in, even though I was greeted, I noted the cashier had an unfriendly look on her face. During the course of my shopping experience, another employee suddenly come from the back to arrange stock near me, (subtle behavior that made me immediately suspicious that I was being racially profiled, since it's a very small space). The incident that caused me to write this review, occurred when the cashier (my receipt says her name is Lindsey), came from around the counter to show me the location of some cards I'd asked for. She then asked me if I wanted her to hold the items I was planning to purchase at the counter. In that instant, my heart sank because that vaguely unpleasant feeling of being hyper scrutinized I always have when I shop at Greenwich Letterpress turned into a full blown alert signal (yes, you are being racially profiled!). I was so aghast that I almost handed her back the cards I was holding, to tell her that I'd changed my mind, & wouldn't be buying anything today. But I didn't tell her that. That auto-polite behavior so many of us are ingrained with, kicked in & I politely declined. However, inside I was a mass of fury, shock, shame, & disappointment. Did she really think that I was planning on running out the door & stealing a bunch of greeting cards?? Because my assumption is that she thinks that all Black people are thieves (?!!) This is how it seemed from my perspective. I ended up spending quite a bit of money on the cards I chose, but I will never return. I prefer the friendliness of the staff at The Ink Pad on 7th Ave or even Considerosity on W.4th St (an even tinier spot where I don't feel like I'm being watched all the time). read more

I have found my new go-to stationery shop! If you have ever found joy in browsing cute paper boutiques, Greenwich Letterpress is a dream come true. As I am not familiar with the nonsensical street routes in West Village, I had some trouble finding this place even though I had written myself directions beforehand. Luckily a friendly local pointed me in the right direction (turns out I was just a block away) -- the store is conveniently next door to a bakery. The best way to describe this store is CUTE. It's quite small, but full of cards, notes, gift tags, etc etc for all occasions. The designs are just adorable. The merchandise draws a certain kind of attractive clientele. I tell ya, everything about this place is C-U-T-E. I don't mean in the way that makes you feel like they're trying too hard. They're just naturally that cute. Luckily I knew exactly what I was coming in for, otherwise I could have easily spent a half hour perusing all their precious goods. If that's not enough to bring you through the doors, maybe you should know that they use 100% wind energy and soy-based inks. They even have a nifty postage stamp machine so you can mail your long-distance bestie a thoughtful letterpressed postcard as soon as you leave the shop. read more

I. Love. Hand-printed. Cards. I triple-heart the cards you can buy here, all beautifully printed on handsome paper. The cards range from quaint to quirk and it's impossible to leave here without remembering long-lost friends' birthdays and every last person you need to thank just so you can buy more. read more
