“The groceries are a little pricey but the bakery is awesome. They serve very good cake in a proper plate and steel spoons which makes the experience very nice.”
“I love this little store so much! The pastries are top tier and I love the large variety of candies that they serve. Lots of options to choose from and everything is so good. You can find so many things in this store ranging of candies to wool apparel. If you're looking for something new to try, I definitely recommend coming to this spot.”
“They have the best variety of pickled fish that I've seen in Seattle. I love their books, candy, and decorations too. It is a nice place to grab a sandwich. They have both indoor and outdoor seating, which is pleasant.”
“They are absolutely amazing to work with! We placed a bulk order for our wedding, and the entire experience was fantastic from start to finish. Having a Swedish candy bar was such a huge hit with our guests — everyone loved it! Ordering was super easy, and they made the whole process effortless. Highly recommend them for any event!”
