“First, what I hate about Five Below! As a corporation it's making us do self-checkout - Y-ACK ? Now what I like about it! The associates are super friendly and helpful. You get greeted with a warm hello as you walk in the door and they happen to be there. Then, there is the selection of tchotchke, whether electronics, candy, makeup, etc you'll end up buying more than you thought you were planning.”

“Manager changed, a little more staff, and the store looks much better.
Now if only customers could stop abandoning and/or hiding the things they decide they don't actually want to buy. Just hand it off to a staff member who can put it away.”
“Nice store, you can look for random stuff and find good things. I have got very nice party decoration items as well here before. You have to checkout yourself but the store staff is awesome and are always there to help you out whenever you need.”

“I had a great experience at Kristinas Variety. The store was organized very well and everything is easy to find. Candy is near candy and chips are near chips. The employee at the front is very kind and explains the lottery games very well. The lottery wins are always updated on the calendar at the front too.”

“May 2023:4: I could recommend this location. I stopped by this location as a result of needing a few things before I continued on my way. I grabbed a few scratch tickets, a couple of drinks, and some snack food items. The store was fairly clean and orderly upon my arrival. It was a location adjacent to a main street that was easily accessed from two different roads. There was no visible handicap parking in front, but plenty of parking spaces available. The cashier was competent and friendly.”

Great corner in Roslindale Sq right in front of a bus stop if you need to go to Forest Hills Station & across the street is another T stop going to Forest Hills and on the other corner is a Chinese Food place and next to this variety store is a bakery. Cool little store that has a nice vibe. LOVE THEIR CAT!”

“This is a fun and quirky 99¢ shop. You can find clothes, hardware, toiletries, kicknacks, and fish here. Most of the things I found were more than 99¢. But the prices were low and there were a lot of unique items.”

“I've been frequenting this store often every week for years. The workers/owners are friendly, caring and cordial. This establishment is very capable to handling your convenience store needs.”
“They are open! Easy to stop in and grab what you need! The owner is all about the community. I spent a good half hour talking to him. Security cameras installed. Watching the street and the building. They are just getting going again and I could tell he’s very motivated to be at 100%. I could tell he wants more for the store but has to rebuild. Completely worth stopping in.”

“Clean, lots of great gift ideas and just everyday items. I was pleasantly surprised with all the great items. And the cashier was the cutest sweetest young lady! Definitely a go to store.”
“Decent store, hoping it has more items though. Beautiful opening time since I do get rather busy and have to leave home by 6:30 ?? It’s a convenient store and right around the corner. Once again, would be 5 stars if it contained more items. Amazing other than that!”
“The best sandwiches I have ever had. I used to go 35 years ago and I forgot all about this hidden gem. I started working in Watertown and looked it up and ordered and now I'm hooked. They pile on the meat and you get to pick your toppings. I have had 4 different sandwich and i'm OBSESSED with themI'm going to start getting my deli from them because their meat is soo fresh.BEST PLACE EVER!!!!!!”
