There's a wonderful selection of home goods (incense, bath items, skincare, kitchenware, etc), gorgeous pottery (I bought myself a beautiful mug that actually originated from a studio in the SF Bay Area, where I live - but the studio is not open to the public!), stationery and much more. I felt like there was a good range of prices and there was plenty that was affordable. The staff was very kind - the lady who rang up my items dropped the travel watercolor palette and immediately went to get me a new one "just in case". So nice! I definitely recommend this store and would be here all the time if I lived here!

Seriously, I am so glad this little shop is in my neighborhood. Sometimes I just stop by to browse and check out anything new they may have. I am fond of buying gifts here for people. I've been able to accessorize my apartment with a few nice things that I picked up-a decorative pillow, some candles, and a couple of other small items. Each time I have been there the service has been impeccable. That goes a long way and makes me wanna spend more.

Dreamy neutrals, warm textiles, and large lush plants invite you to spend some time in this beautiful space. This is a perfect shop to find that special gift or to treat yourself to something unique and made by independent artisans. We found some amazing ceramic ware for a friend's housewarming, and I ended up purchasing one of their gorgeous raw silk shirts for myself. The independent brands are among the list of coveted in this shop. Bri, the owner and founder of the Good Hippie line of body products, is often there hanging out with an approachable smile and a warm passion for the artists she supports in her shop. No pretension here, and everything is well-priced. To boot, she shares the space with long-time treasure of the Austin jewelry scene, Christine Fail, who showcases her line of minimal jewelry in addition to other artist-produced goods. This shop is a MUST-SEE on the east side and is sure to gain a huge following very soon!

Now, the real star: the gluten-free baked goods. We tried four different things, cookies included, and honestly? I was stunned. The flavor, the softness, the balance, nothing felt like a "gluten-free compromise." It tasted like the real deal, maybe even better. Not overly sweet, not dry, not crumbly, just genuinely delicious pastries that happen to be gluten-free. I don't know what magic they're working in that kitchen, but this is easily the best gluten-free bakery I've come across. A must-visit, no question.

Maaribu is modern, cool and…read moreeclectic coffee shop and store where you can have the most delicious cup of coffee along with a pastry or bite. Every piece in the store appears to be intentionally curated. Maaribu melds a home and gift shop with an in house café and bakery, creating an experience that's both relaxing and memorable. According to Mable, my server, Maaribu is a combination of the word Marfa (Texas town that has the Prada store) and Malibu. The brand is often described as combining Marfa's creative spirit, Malibu's laid back lifestyle, and clean Scandinavian design. The shop portion of Maaribu is beautifully styled, featuring furniture, décor, books, and gifts that have a modern flare. All the items are easy to peruse and get drawn in. The use of color is playful and engaging. Maaribu's key highlight is its café and bakery. The in house café has an assortment of coffee, wellness beverages, and dedicated gluten free baked goods. I bought a Rose honey latte, which was divine along with a multi-layer pastry. Mable said customers enjoy the quality and flavor of the pastries...scones, muffins, cookies, brownies, and egg bites are frequent favorites. Importantly, the café is reported to be fully gluten free, which makes it a standout destination for people with celiac disease or gluten sensitivities, without sacrificing taste or variety. The outdoor seating and patio area add to the charm, making Maaribu a great place to enjoy coffee and pastries on a nice Austin morning. After years in Austin, I finally discovered Maaribu--a modern, eclectic coffee shop and store. Every item is thoughtfully curated, blending a home-and-gift shop with a café and bakery for a relaxing experience. The name combines Marfa's creative vibe, Malibu's laid-back style, and Scandinavian design. The shop offers stylish furniture, décor, books, and gifts, all easy to browse and visually engaging. Maaribu's café is fully gluten-free, featuring quality pastries like scones, muffins, cookies, brownies, and egg bites, as well as wellness drinks and coffee. Outdoor seating makes it a perfect spot to enjoy coffee and pastries on a pleasant Austin morning. Wow...Maaribu!!!
