-1 star because first time I was there. they were understaffed. 1 person, dealing with candy. so I left and came back later +1 star because mellow, well-behaved dog. got the color changing diffuser, I don't think it changes it color. or it starts white and fills with the red fluid. that's not changing... that's acquired color and keeps color cute wooden bobbles and lots of cool house stuff. read more

They have Moomin merch! books, plates, cups, etc. I grew up watching the Moomin Valley show, and still to this day I'm obsessed with Moomin! I was strolling up and down Abbott Kinney with my pup and stopped here to check them out. This wasn't my first time at their store, and I very much appreciate the display's aesthetic and the merchandise they carry. They offer Kitchenware, Handmade Pottery, Swedish Candy, scented candles, clothes, mugs, jewelry, Swedish makeup, and much more. For the price they are charging, customer service could and should be much better. read more

You know that phrase "like a kid in a candy shop"? Yeah, well, talk about the perfect way to describe your time at Huset. In the past year or two, the Swedish candy craze has taken over the United States. It started, of course, with a TikTok that went viral in January 2024. And now, people pour into this aesthetic spot on Abbot Kinney to get a taste of hygge. Literally, that is, though there are plenty of cute Scandinavian knickknacks scattered throughout the store for you to peruse after the cashier rings up your candy purchase. True to the idiom, it's hard to figure out to get because everything sounds so tempting. Imagine flavors like sour kiwi, sour pineapple, sugarcoated strawberry, cola, and more. It's pick-and-mix style: try not to go overboard because it's something like $17.99 a pound! We weren't the only ones with a sweet tooth on the weekend and arrived to find plenty of people circling the candy section, carefully making their selections. Still, there was plenty of room to walk around and more importantly, plenty of candy left for us to choose from. read more

I found Huset after my trip to Sweden a few summers ago. I loved the bubs in Sweden and was jonesing for a fix only to find that this shop sold them! When I arrived I was surprised to find there was so much more here than just Swedish candy here On top of that, the workers went above and beyond to help me. Specifically a nice tall girl with brown hair and a striking smile. She helped me pick out a delightful goose candle holder for my boyfriend which now appoints our darling menagerie of trinkets. read more

This is my absolute favorite store in Venice. Not only is the customer service top notch, but they always strive to go out of their way to help, leven if you aren't sure what you are even looking for. Need a gift? They got you. Not sure what to bring your friends hosting dinner? Look no further. Holly and her gang are sourcing the world for unique innovative beautiful things so you don't have to. Not to mention the SWEDISH CANDY. This store is filled with sweets and treats that taste too good to be sugarless. Because they aren't. You will be greeted by the most eloquent and well trained dog named Karl so give him a pet on your way in and out and look no further for everything Swedish. read more

If you have ever lived in Scandinavia you become addicted to the candy that you find everywhere. This is the only place on the west side that sells legit Swedish candy. It's super sweet tastes better than American candy and does not have all the chemicals and weird dyes found in American candy. Oh if you're after some really nice household appliances to give your home a unique feel come here. The stuff here looks way better than IKEA! I am mostly just here for the candy. Den har är Svenska godis på riktigt. read more

Super charming store!! There's lots of fun types of Swedish candy and home wares. The staff is kind and attentive, including the dog:)

This is such a cute little shop. I really enjoyed all the housewares and dinnerware that they have. I night a couple different bowls and some smaller sauce type dishes and a cup. All of it is hand made and very much worth the price tag. I initially came because a friend told me they have some of the Swedish candy here so I wanted to check it out. I'm glad I came, definitely spent more than I wanted but all worth it. The owner is a very sweet lady and will help you find anything you may be looking for to complete a look. read more

I went to there 1/11 Sunday afternoon because wanted try some Swedish candy. There were two cashiers and they are not friendly at all. No greeting or she didn't even say one word during I was paying for my stuff. Can't you see person in front of you? Hello? How about someone train these people how to greeting customer at least say hi lol. read more

Cute store. Has the BEST Scandinavian Candy! A huge Assortment and the real deal. Very fresh, Excellent service.

Horrific parking - even on a Thursday afternoon. Didn't have any of Swedish candy bubs I was looking for in stock. They have a website- they need to utilize it and update so customers don't waste their driving all the way over to be disappointed read more

If there any other rating below one stars, that's what I would put, the Store has terrible customer service. My daughter and I came in happy to buy some candy and I left my daughter inside. She picked up some candy and they did not let us know that we could weigh the candy during when we were picking out our selection so we ended up dropping $50 on candy with her money that she had just earned, mind you she's a 10-year-old girl And she just wanted some candy when she asked to return all of the candy they said no we cannot do that and forced her to pay $50 then when we came back, they said we were lying and asked to put some of it back and not even to mention how expensive the candy was. It was $20 per pound of candy so the real question is why didn't they refund us never go to this place ever again the service is horrible. We will not be coming back! read more

During this nice day for lunch and shopping, we found this cute little shop but after we were ignored by the two salespeople behind the counter, decided to leave empty handed. We were the only customers in the store at the time, and the only greeting we received was from a darling dog. Location is great as is their merchandise, however rent is undoubtedly high and customer service is a must if shops want to make money and stay in business. read more

My parents and I stumbled across this shop years ago after visiting Fiorentini + Baker on Abbot Kinney Blvd. It became one of my mom's favorite finds, as the products are Swedish designs. (Both she and my dad became interested in Swedish pieces after finding a lot of vintage mid-century modern pieces that were crafted in Sweden.) Recently, we added it again to our list of places to visit during our trip to LA in June. They're located in the middle of Abbot Kinney Blvd. and offer a variety of products from home goods, fashion, and artisan goods. Pricing is pretty fair as you can get some items for great prices and spend a little more on quality items that are unique. Staff have always been friendly and welcoming whenever we've gone and they're happy to assist if you have questions. Parking can be challenging - either you will need to search for a street parking spot or try to park away from the boulevard and plan on walking. Sometimes you might get lucky, depending on the time of day you go. (Alternatively, you could take public transportation or a rideshare, as the entire area can be enjoyed while walking.) read more

Everything is overpriced. They pressure you into buying extras at the register, and only give in store credit for returns.

Huset. In English it's, "the house". A propos! Think minimalist, clean, Scandinavian living, in keeping with my 2019 resolutions to continue to pare down and use, enjoy the stuff I have. Huset is a totally browse worthy, totally reprise worthy, Abbot Kinney Boulevard destination for cool kid's things, home accessories, furniture, fashion, to grace your living space or gift a loved one. Pleasant sales assistance should you require it. Peruse the store or visit their website https://huset-shop.com/ and I know you will agree! I'll be back the next time a truly unique hostess gift (sometimes wine's simply not enough) is in order! Due to time of day and weekday, we were fortunate to snag a two-hour meter right on Abbot Kinney Boulevard. No Yelp check-in as my phone's wifi wasn't cooperating. read more

What a terrific store. The selection is amazing and the quality is through the roof! And the candy! Oh my gosh. Reading the negative reviews about the candy cost make no sense. Wonderful selection and worth every penny. read more

im Swedish and this place is insulting. Everything is upcharged from the original seller's price (seriously, look it up online before you purchase there). $18 per lb for godis!!!!!!! (Swedish candy) its INSULTING read more

This store lets me live my Scandinavian design house fantasies. The furniture, art, kitchen stuff, clothing, bags, toys, etc. are all taken from the owner's trips to Scandinavia and these offerings come from 60+ Scandinavian designers so Americans can enjoy them. I love the clean, contemporary and clever design of these items. I wish I have a * nice * house and not a rinky dink old apartment so I can fill it with equally nice things from this store. If you're at a loss for a housewarming gift, you should stop by at this boutique and get some incredible gifts, most of which are under $50. Your friend will thank you! read more

Update. The cup completely fell apart. The lid stopped working and the glue that kept the base together came undone. I had Jeff go in alone to try for the second time to return the cup. A different manager was working (maybe the owner?) and tried to fix the cup for Jeff but couldn't. She then decided to take the cup back for store credit. So, now I have store credit to Huset. Very cool of them to honor this sort of exchange. I dig the responsibility they took for the cup. Thank you Huset! read more

Overpriced, rude employees, I wouldn't set foot back in here really. I don't think it's going to last very long. Not a very good business outlook considering the high turnover rate of businesses on Abbott Kinney. Too bad. I'm hoping for a more reasonably priced and interesting space to take over in the next few years. read more

Huset is another quirky Abbot Kinney shop filled with strange yet intriguing items that your everyman would either find impractical or unaffordable. It is one of the more enjoyable shops to browse through, which I would rate as probably its highest value. If you like that Scandinavian style that has been popularized (and bastardized) by places like Ikea then you'll like Huset. There wasn't much here I didn't enjoy looking at, but that brings me back to the extreme impracticality of much of their selection. I suppose those in need of a $12 pastry brush or a Scandinavian dough cutter will breathe a sigh of relief, but I saw most of what was here as peculiar. read more

I like to window shop on Abbot Kinney once in a while, and Huset has become one of the stores I can't walk past if I have time for a quick browse. It's a cute Scandinavian home goods store, perfectly suited to current trends in home decor. Smart, clean, design-oriented wares that would look great on that mid-century modern sideboard. There are both artsy decorative objects and items with purpose that still manage to be somewhat impractical, like elaborate milk foamers and $40 clay toilet brush holders. Everything is very nice to look at. I particularly enjoy the pleasing array of ceramics. There's also a robust kids' section, and I can see myself picking up some of those nice-looking toys and dolls for future children. Assuming my kids are kind enough to consider whether their playthings clash with my furniture. I have yet to buy anything at Huset, but I'm sure they'll get some of my money eventually. It's the same deal with any of these stores--Tortoise being my other favorite on Abbot Kinney. I'll find the perfect artisanal back scratcher one day, and I'll pay the asking price. read more

There is an interesting collection of items for home wares like cups, vases, cutlery. Everything is nicely displayed. The staff don't acknowledge your presence until you bring stuff up to the register to pay which is good if you like to browse and finally helped when you go up to them. read more

Update my last few times purchasing there have not gone well and I found customer service really lacking. It is seeming to be more geared to tourists only now, and not to locals who would expect better service. read more

They not only carry small furnitures, home accessories and gadgets, they also carry clothing for women and children in designs and fabrics that you won't normally find at a regular shopping center. I love Abbott Kinney! read more

First things first, this is not merely a candy shop. There are so many home essentials, decor, clothing, toys, etc. that will transport you to Scandanavia. That being said, I go for the candy. I'm a sucker for Swedish candies and their corner features the pick-your-own variety that is common in Sweden. You have treats for any mood. The sour selections range from tongue-numbing to a mild pucker. The marshmallow is a revelation as are some of the jellies. If Swedish fish are your only exposure to this cultural delicacy, then expand your horizons down on Abbot Kinney. Get a little bit of everything! Just kidding, the bags are only so big. read more

Absolutely adore this find. I found several gifts here. An eclectic collection from housewares to stationary, and adorable plants sprinkled throughout the outdoor garden space - which is a sanctuary I wish was in my backyard! The variety was overwhelming, but in a good way. Such friendly and helpful staff. I could spend hours here. read more

My new favorite place for housewarming gifts, or gifts for your own home. There were so many unique and attractive items that our only problem was narrowing down the selection. Their staff was very helpful with information about each particular item while not being pushy salesperson-types. One thing that happened while visiting: a couple came in with two small children who proceeded to try to destroy most of the store's inventory. I'm not sure what the etiquette rules dictate when it comes to this type of situation, but from the outside looking in, it was a bit horrifying. I can only guess that these two toddlers were actually employed by Huset on the QA team, and were conducting some on-site durability tests of their plates, cups, and other small items. read more

***update regarding the below review*** Within 30min of posting the below message, Holly (the owner I believe) send me a reply apologizing for the experience and offered me a full refund. Thank you Holly for being on it. Much appreciate the fast reaction. ---------------------------- I bought a pillow from Huset 1 week ago. Looked amazing for about 2 days but it started fraying in multiple places. I brought the pillow back to the store today and basically i received zero customer service. I spoke to Brandon who simply suggested that i should go and get it fixed elsewhere. Not what i was expecting to hear considering this simple pillow was about $100. I had not realized that it also need weekly maintenance/repairs. Pricey pillow!! read more

I don't know how it happened. It's like my 4th time on Abbott Kinney but my 1st time at this store...how could I have missed it?? Anyway, it's a cute shop with lots of Scandinavian designer stuff. A lot of trays that I wanted!! There were a few melamine (maybe?) cups I liked but didn't feel like forking out the cash for it. Price range is a bit high but I figure it's designer stuff and shipped from Europe so....ok, makes some sense. The children's stuff is adorable and quirky. Really great! read more

Bought a great little kewpie here. Really cute stuff. Expensive, but that's to be expected, given the area. Also liked the check in discount :) Very friendly shop girl, too. read more
