She was kind and detailed in her explanation of prices, processes, and turnaround times. When I learned that the turnaround was a little longer than I had hoped, Dana did not skip a beat or offer me any less service when inquiring how to knot them on my own. She afforded me the ability to try two different sizes of silk and got me set up with all the tools that I would need, along with a good dose of encouragement! Dana reassured me that if it didn't work out, they would be available to assist me in a class, or to string them for me. I highly recommend you just stop in to see their amazing offerings and for their excellent, friendly and helpful customer service. I believe your experience will be similar to mine.

The coffee bar surpasses expectations. The drinks are great, especially because of their unique syrups and drink combinations. I have enjoyed lattes and fruit flavored lemonades, and my favorites have been the strawberry matcha and the blue velvet latte, which featured blueberry roobios syrup. The employees have also been very nice and it is cute inside. There is space to sit and read or work near the coffee bar - you are able to take your computer and work there with a drink from the coffee bar, without even needing to buy a book. It is a great multifunctional community space.

It is part mystical supply shop, part LGBTQIA+ community haven, and entirely magical. The vibes are completely unmatched. They carry everything from gorgeous crystals, dried herbs, and incense to the most hilarious, hyper-specific queer greeting cards, stickers, and local tarot decks. Some of my absolute favorite personal purchases (bought a ton of gifts here for friends) have been a beautifully curated set of spell candles, some stunning local art prints, and a steady supply of irreverent LGBTQ+ stickers that now permanently decorate my laptop. Many of the stickers were parts of gifts purchased here for friends. It's the kind of whimsical, accepting neighborhood gem where you drop in just to look around and walk out with a bag full of magical goodies and a drastically improved mood.

You can also get a broad assortment of Pride flags representing various gender identities, orientations, etc., as well as a number of independently published (and actually useful!) self-help chapbooks - some geared toward neurodiverse folk and others towards the general public. And if none of those things apply to you, there are plenty of novelty gifts (pins, bumper stickers, etc.) with witty slogans to go around. Fun location and going here is one of the highlights of leaving Pittsburgh proper to visit the town of Millvale.

The owner is well traveled, friendly, and could talk about the items. Some very expensive items and some affordably priced ones. Many of these are unique, so would be hard to find on your own. Includes memoriabilia such as coca cola , from casinos, ships, old electronics, instruments. There was an adorable McCoy cookie jar, and beautiful vases, however, I prefer items less fragile, though they are so beautiful!

I wish I could remember half of the things in here, but there was just so much! There were a few vintage cameras around the store, some knives, old lighters, a few straight razors. I remember these because that's what I was interested in. There were a lot of what seemed like one-of-a-kind items that would have a good place on a coffee table or book shelf. There were several things I was interested in, I asked if they could cut me a deal for the three items, and they did. But it was still more than I could spend, and they wouldn't budge on the offer. Despite this, the owner was a friendly guy, as was his employee. Prices are moderate, to high. I don't know if you'll find any real bargains in here, but there's always a chance! I didn't have much time in Pittsburgh, but if you're in the area, this is a great place to check out!
