Definitely check Curious out if you're in the area - I'm already tempted to go back for a few things that caught my eye.

Neither of us have visited in over 25 years and were looking forward to a trip this month. We've had to cancel our trip three times due to covid. Sadly, we just cancelled again. Blessedly, Treasure Chest came to the rescue! I checked out their website and ordered two Hermosa Beach-related items to give to my sister. The owner Darren was incredibly responsive to questions I had and made sure I received my items prior to my sister's birthday. She is going to love this beautiful mug! And I wound up ordering a second coaster to keep for myself; and it comes with that cute little black stand! Customer service is sadly lacking sometimes, so it is particularly appreciated when the customer is made to feel valued. Check them out!

After doing a little shopping at nearby William and Sonoma, I had a few questions to ask these two, and boy was I not prepared for the answers! Within 15 minutes, I realized the concierge services offered here are top tier. Bren and Hope (pictured) informed me they can cater to Village customers by: 1) providing you with a ticket to secure your luggage or baggage you wish to safely store while you shop at your convenience... 2) provide wheelchair rentals for the disabled or physically challenged... 3) make restaurant reservations for you... 4) charge your phone(s) while you shop... 4) answer a plethora of questions you may have regarding all things Manhattan Village. These two boom with personality and their knowledge knows no boundaries! They are a true credit to the Manhattan Village brand!

There is…read moresuch a great mix of items to browse, from serving pieces and local beach themed goods to plush animals, ornaments, coffee table books, blankets, and frames. You get the idea, it is the kind of place where you always find something interesting. Sure, you can probably find similar items online for a few dollars less, but that is not the point. It feels good to shop in person, take your time, and pick out something meaningful for a loved one instead of just opening another Amazon box. I picked up a Manhattan Beach puzzle for my in-laws and a California dish towel for a friend who moved to the East Coast to be closer to her children, both made for really thoughtful, personal gifts. The store has a warm, well-curated feel, and the employees have always been friendly and helpful. I love this shop and am happy to support a great local small business. Places like this are what make the neighborhood feel like a community. 5 stars for me.

Please take your business somewhere else…read more Our group was casually shopping while our kids held onto two plushies they planned on buying. They weren't running around, making a mess, or being disruptive in any way. We were all simply browsing the store like normal paying customers. So when an employee came up and told our kids to put the plushies back, it honestly made no sense. If customers can't hold onto items while they shop, maybe that should be posted somewhere. We didn't make a scene -- we just left. But the interaction felt unnecessary, unwelcoming, and honestly pretty off-putting. A decent-sized store should probably know how basic shopping works.

The owner must be my soulmate LOL! We tried very hard not to buy out the whole store they have eclectic clothing that you will never find at Target, Old Navy, department stores you know those boooooring places where moms get kid's clothing. The prices are great!!!! A super intricate embroidery linen top was $30, it looks expensive, yes it is second hand but everything on the rack was in good condition. Jewelry, the rustic kinds with stones and again very detailed designs were $8.99. I will go back and get some iron wall hooks, they are in the shape of animal and sea animals and in various sizes, most are 1 hook but they have the multiple ones I have to measure our space and go back. They had the coolest rustic Ugg boots with a strap that wraps around with a metal bead at the end of leather strap I wanted it but it was too big. They were in very good condition. The men's rider boots are so cool, there is nothing sexier than a man with worn out cool boots. You guys all need to stop wearing Sketchers you aren't 5 anymore I promise you will get more chicks if you don't wear running shoes. If you are wanting a cool make over then go there and ask the nice lady there to find an ensemble for you she's so nice and so helpful! They have kids stuff too for cool kids! And what's so fun about these places is there will always be new things, I would love to have the job of finding things to sell here.

There are a ton of really stylish, funky, colorful artsy pieces to bring flair to your life or you! There are tons of goodies to help you communicate your vibe!
