“I always have such a good experience at the store. The associates are really friendly, very knowledgeable, and always willing to have a chat with you about what they like, what they've seen, and what you're looking for. Be sure to sign up for the rewards program, it's actually good!
I live across town, but I find myself coming back to this smoke shop whenever I need something specific, or I'm interested in exploring a new category of goods. I know that I'll always have somebody who can tell me the considerations to make, who will be kind to me, and who won't make me feel weird for being a beginner, or new to something.
The amount of selection here is also just wild. They have flavors of things I've never seen anywhere else, the number of brands they carry-from the commonplace to the premium- is stacked, and they don't carry anything low quality, so I always walk out satisfied.”
“I loved my experience at Noble Heart! It was my first tattoo and Megan did a fantastic job. She explained the process very well and made me very comfortable. I definitely will come back here in the future.”
“It’s a quite eclectic but lovely store by Isaiah Zagar and his wife. Really cool store!! Everywhere you turn, you see something else that catches your eye. You can call it a gallery because it’s just an eye candy, but would say it’s more like a store with multiple artwork from all over the world. We bought a nice cat mask from Mexico and nice bowl from Turkey. The art is reasonably priced and the staff is very friendly.”
“Have been patronizing Kent Studios for about 5 years, and the team do exemplary and careful work. If you want the framing job to meet your expectations and requirements you go here. An inexpensive experience, as well! Highly recommended.”
“I’ve been coming to Fringe Salon since 2021 and can confidently say it’s the best place in Philly for curly hair! I’ve tried other places, and they are never as good as Fringe.
Most recently, I had a color service that didn’t turn out how I expected, and the owner personally stepped in to make it right - shoutout to Ehrin! She spent hours with me, completely professional, kind, and dedicated to making sure I left happy. I really appreciated the salon’s responsiveness and care. I highly recommend this salon to anyone looking for expert curly cuts!”
“Love Art Star! I have gotten many great presents as well as things for myself. They did move to the Independence Visitor Center at 599 Market Street which is not yet reflected here as of my review.”
“Fantastic products that are 100% vegan and made with the utmost care. Topeya has got it right her soaps are wonderful, as well as her skin care products she puts the highest quality all natural animal, free ingredients in her products and has well designed packaging to arrival the best of the vest. My girl took some of the soaps home and somebody body care lotion and she couldn’t be more happy.”
“I have been getting tattooed by Steve Martin for over a year now and he has completely exceeded my expectations. He has been working on my traditional Japanese Star Wars sleeve and the level of detail, artistry, and creativity he puts into every session is incredible.
Steve is not just an amazing tattoo artist, he is also one of the kindest and most genuine people you will meet. He makes the entire process comfortable, takes the time to listen to your ideas, and brings them to life in a way that feels unique and personal.
I live in Delco and drive about an hour just to see him and I would do it every time without hesitation. His work is absolutely worth the trip. If you are considering a tattoo you will be lucky to have Steve as your artist. You will not just leave with a tattoo, you will leave with a piece of art you will be proud of forever.”

“I've gotten to the point with Coll's that I just let them pick the frame and mat. Their work is so superior that I just get out of the way and let them do their job. They're excellent.”
“Super friendly, very professional, great quality work. I needed two pieces: one needed to be fixed from a botched frame job from another framer, the other was a canvas. They worked with me to identify a photo service to print a photo, they even picked it up from the vendor so they could frame it. They also found a canvas printer for me and coordinated getting the canvas from the printer so they could stretch it on the frame. I will never go to another framer…and you shouldn’t either!”
“A wonderful little shop- unique vintage clothing, fun objects d’art, adorable little finds for children and - the owner of Bette Jacks is inviting, knowledgeable and an important part of the eclectic culture and community called Keswick Village!”
“The gallery is superbly lain out..Rennie & Rosario are amazing artists & their vision of a shared space for the community is marvelous. I have shown there a couple of times, what a thrill. My community supports this gallery & so do I. May they stay in business forever! L&l:)”
“If you (wisely) plan to check out Partners an Son I recommend that you a) have gotten a good night's rest b) have a full belly c) are adequately caffeinated d) have sufficient funds e) have a friend on standby who can talk you out of spending your mortgage/rent money.
Seriously, though. This is probably the best indie comic store I have ever been to in my ancient, well-traveled life. The store is brimming with a wonderfully curated array of indie comics, graphic novels, zines, and art. Can't recommend enough.”
“Have been meaning to leave a review since this summer when Wendy’s frame shop expertly and affordably framed two pieces of art that we purchased on our honeymoon; a Portuguese tile and a small painting. We could not be happier with how both pieces turned out, and they perfectly complete our stair gallery wall! We went in with little direction or plan, and Nat helped us tremendously by giving us direction with our vision and creating a great plan. Both pieces turned out so perfect and better than I could’ve imagined! Highly recommend! Will be back in the future for sure.”
“I've used Millennium Art for a few framing jobs & each one has come out beautifully. The owner is very responsive & provides a plethora of options to choose from. Will continue to come here for my framing needs!”

“This is a great venue for organizing events while also serving as a community center. The staff is excellent and very helpful, and they have a wide range of events that are going on at all times to engage people.”
“Had a couple of pieces of art framed recently. I was very impressed with the quality and value. So much so that I went back a couple of weeks later. Great place, great work, and I would highly recommend. Was even done faster than originally quoted.”
“Custom Picture Framer of Glenside, is the best from start to finish. Jeremy, and his staff are wonderful. I brought in 3 prints to be framed, Ellie worked with me, and was patient, and was very helpful in helping me find the perfect,Frames.Jeremy did my insulation, of 4 prints, and I could not be any happier with the quality of the framed prints. Jeremy has now helped me to complete my wall. If you have any prints, art work to be framed, Custom Picture Framer is the place to go, excellent customer service, and friendly staff. I will use them for all of my future framing projects.AngelaHappy customer”

“OMG, I’m thrilled to see that Galerie Hamid is still around!!!!!! I’ve purchased several pieces from him in the past, and I always get compliments on them. He truly is one of the kindest and sweetest people I’ve met. His collection is absolutely stunning, and it’s been such a pleasure to support his business. Now that I know he’s still in business, I’m planning a visit very soon! If you haven’t checked him out yet, you’re missing out on some truly beautiful African art.”
“Here tonight for Astra Lumina. Loved it. Each segment of lights was really unique and interesting. Trail is well lit and feels somewhat other worldly. Glad I didnt come in the dead of winter when it was freezing cold. March was just right! Very glad dates extended or I would have missed it like I missed NY last year! Check out the light up lemonade at the concession...very fun. Im not sure that I would recommend this for younger kids. They seemed bored with it and the noise kind of diminished the experience for other guests. Ten and up maybe would be best audience. A good date night experience as well. You are walking in the dark but its suffuciently lit as long as you stay on trail. Parking was 20.00. Definitely a must see after dark.”
“This needlepoint store was such a great find! I was in the area and saw it on a map, but knew it was closing in half an hour. The owner told me not feel rushed and was SO kind. It was my first visit to a needlepoint store since starting the hobby and it was amazing to be treated with such kindness as the owner shared her extensive knowledge. She helped me with some thread choices and deciding which canvas to pick. She had such great tips and even got my canvas onto stretcher bars before I left! I don’t live nearby, but next time I’m in the area I will stop in again for sure!”
“The Philadelphia Print Shop has a huge selection of beautiful prints, and a warm, expert staff. It is a pleasure to work with them and I am SO happy with the set of bird prints which they helped me to put together!”
“This museum is free but need to make reservation online. It locates on two different floors 1st and 8th of the building. There are some very unique sounds in the background that created by some interesting devices on the wall. If you are in downtown area and have some time to kill, this would be a nice place to visit. Spent Total 1hour for my visit.”
“Infinite stars to Melissa and Sok if that were an option! I had a relative's over 100-year-old newspaper auction notice that, at some point, hung outside on a barn in rural MD. The 2'4'-ish notice was folded into size 5x8 and clearly deteriorating. While I forgot to take a picture before, the after is truly impressive. Melissa carefully steamed/ironed our family keepsake and placed it on an acid-free board to prevent further deterioration. The museum glass and her suggestion to reverse mat made the piece pop even more. I cannot say enough about Sok & Melissa's kindness and expertise - they are outstanding and unparalleled. And if you can't find a frame from the thousands (literally) available in their shop, then something is clearly wrong with you. We've found our lifetime framers and will be back - Thanks Melissa & Sok!”
“I highly recommend The Great Frame-Up in Wayne, PA. Pasha in particular is the best of the best. He has a very artistic eye for all aspects of framing - matting, framing materials, format and arrangement, glass, and all the rest - which really make your piece pop; his craftsmanship in completing the job is superb; and he is a real pleasure to work with. I have also done “frame it yourself” there, and the staff are very helpful, but I don’t know if they still offer that service.”
“Jim is a fantastic instructor, he explained each step very clearly but also gave you space to create by yourself. Being an art teacher myself & my hubby a scientist, we found the process so interesting & have some lovely additions for our Christmas tree which we will use for years to come. A wonderful experience overall!”
“A bookstore Little Ron DeSantis would hate. This store features African-American authors telling African-American stories & history. It's a treasure in the City Invincible”
“I casually visited the store with no intention of buying anything, but I was treated so well that I ended up buying this lovely painting. I must tell everyone that the quality is fabulous, and I am very happy with the purchase.”
“Love this place, it is the perfect store for everyday and special occasion gift.
Every time I go you will feel welcomed. Definitely a stop if you are near by.”
