I had shopped half of the store when I needed to use the restroom. I asked to use theirs but was told no. I asked again as it was an emergency, and was told I had to go up the street. I spent 1000s of dollars in your store and was told again to go up the street. (I'm almost 80 years old). My friend who also shops there frequently had a similar experience with rude staff and has decided to not shop there anymore. Emma was the staff member I consulted with. I'm disappointed and sad to report I won't be back.

They're getting their item back in perfect unused shape and want to take extra money from you for an accident?

My parents and I have been loyal customers of this store for years (I'm reclining against a pillow…read morefrom the store as I write this) and I always make a point to visit whenever I'm back in Buffalo, even though I now live in Las Vegas. This winter break, I found a gorgeous sequined Bills jacket (blue base, red sleeves) priced at $217. They were offering 25% off Bills gear at the time, but I wanted to think it over before making the purchase. Laux had the same with colors reversed for $115 but I prefer the jacket to be more of the blue than red. *The one pictured is the Laux one. Unfortunately, due to a flight issue, I wasn't able to return to the store as planned before leaving town. On January 2nd, I emailed the store explaining the situation and inquiring about having the jacket shipped. I received no response. I sent a follow-up email and again got no reply. I finally called the store to explain what happened and asked if they would honor the sale price since I had tried contacting them earlier. The woman said that they don't ship if it's not listed in the website, which is fair.I even mentioned I have a relative who could pick it up for me. The response? They wouldn't honor the sale price as the sale is over. I understand policies, but the lack of response to my emails and unwillingness to assist a repeat customer felt like poor customer service as I attempted to get in contact with them during the sale. I've always enjoyed shopping here, but this experience has left questioning if I will be back or recommend it to others.

After I discovered that The Spotted Giraffe carried the beautiful classic special occasion baby…read moreclothes that I love, I started driving out from the city a few times a year, either to pick up holiday outfits for my kids or to get presents for friends' new babies. Gradually, though, I've started to prefer ordering stuff online, because the internet doesn't give you attitude or close early, the way The Spotted Giraffe has a tendency to do. Now, there are some nice-ish ladies who work there, but there are also a couple who couldn't be less helpful or friendly (do they get a bonus for being cold and superior?). One time in particular, I called in advance to see what time they close and was told 5pm. I packed my 2-year-old and then-6-month-old in the car and drove out to Williamsville, parked, got the kids out of the car and pulled on the door handle at exactly 4:42 (you better believe I checked my watch). Locked. I could see two women inside, closing out the cash register and putting things away. One glanced up and then went right back to what she was doing. I loaded the kids back in the car and drove back home extremely miffed. Even though they carry what I want, I think I'll save myself the aggravation.

I responded that the discount was for items that aren't broken. Cashier VERY RELUCTANTLY offered an additional 10% for the now broken item. Her reluctance and obvious frustration surprised me considering she broke the item while packaging it, so I noted that it isn't unusual to request a discount for broken merchandise. I was told I didn't need to point that out to her and that the owner of the store wouldn't have offered me anything. I thanked her for her assistance and left the store without purchasing anything. I will not return.

We'd never heard of this quaint little store, but we're so glad we took the time to come in. Here's why. When you first walk in, you see a lot of Christmas gifts and decorations. Don't let that fool you though, there's something for everyone here. The store is so nicely decorated that I almost said "awww." The owner was right there at the counter with another employee, chatting about the Bills game. She greeted us warmly as we started to look around. There were a lot of neat gifts, clothing, and accessories in the front, center, and back of the store. They even had some witchy items, which is right up my alley. Their sale section has a lot of really nice clothes in it. My cousin bought a jacket and dress, which made the owner take notice. She was wearing the same dress my cousin had bought! I got a moon phase candle and a pretty headband. See? There're a lot of different products here! The owner talked to us for a bit before we left and she was really sweet. I'd definitely come back here, especially since she stocks a lot of things made by local artisans. This shop is so cute and stylish at the same time. I recommend you come look at what they have to offer here. You may just find a treasure or at least something you like. Happy shopping!

My free swag bag also came with a bath bomb, lip scrub, matcha tea candy, chocolate chip cookies and even a $10 off coupon to dinner at the nearby Eagle House. Based on the warm and friendly service I received and the quality products in this cute shop, It's five stars from me! Check it out!
