PARKLEIGH REVIEWS

Love this store. There are so many unique and funny gifts, I love spending lots of time just wandering through all of the rooms and items for sale. They have a great selection of chocolate, fancy wrapping paper, funny gag gift items, tie dye Rochester sweatshirts, and fun cooking utensils and condiments. Literally everything. Best store for gift shopping, especially at the holidays.

Parkleigh is an absolute gem in Rochester. I came in looking for something special for someone incredibly important to me, and the entire experience was perfect from start to finish. The staff were kind, helpful, and genuinely interested in helping me find the right gift. The selection is unique, thoughtful, and beautifully curated—you can tell this place puts care into every item they carry. Whether you’re shopping for a meaningful occasion or just treating yourself, Parkleigh is the place to go. I left with a beautiful necklace and card that felt exactly right. Can’t recommend them enough.

So I had been in Rochester, NY for work for 3 weeks and I saw this small gift shop... I had wanted to go here but kept going to other places but I definitely recommend anyone who is visiting the area to definitely visit this place for some of the most unique gifts I have ever seen... And some of the cutest cards I have ever seen as well!!! For all types of occasions.

ARCHIMAGE REVIEWS

I will always love this store!! It's more than just a store, though. It's an experience every time! You can look once and come back and see something new! It really is a feast for the eyes and heart and holds items that others passions can use, art supplies, crafting items, crystal's, puzzles, cups, and things you can't imagine! This place is a whole experience and there's more than I can list here! Go enjoy the world's cutest store full of all kids of amazing inside, waiting for you to go explore.

I came across this store while searching for somewhere to purchase mala beads. I was very impressed by the store set up, cleanliness, friendly staff and selection of items. My favourites were the windchimes, sound bowls, meditation cushions and of course, the mala beads. Super happy with my purchase! I will be returning and recommending this store.

The staff is very helpful and friendly. They have very eclectic and beautiful items. You can find everything in there from clothing to wind chimes! I would suggest you go there to find anything eccentric or in the order of crystals that you might be looking for.

AARON'S ALLEY REVIEWS

This place is awesome! There's cool clothes, both new and used (leather jackets, jeans, and tie-dye shirts galore), crystals, jewelry, incense, and other neat trinkets. I love their sweet smelling incense, and have been buying them for a few years. The staff is super kind and and welcoming. I would highly recommend checking this place out.

This is my absolute favorite place to shop in Rochester. My family and I have made it a routine to stop in every time we’re in the city for dinner or coffee. It is honestly such an amazing environment. Filled with amazing, vibes, good music, and interesting selections. Jen, Pumpkin, Aaron’s son, and Luna have such wonderful conversation skills and every employee here is so kind, so helpful, and carry such amazing energy. Shopping here is truly an experience and it always uplifts my spirits. I will miss this place when I move out of Rochester. 10/10 recommend! This is the place to go for all your hippie dippie spiritual needs. Much love.

Body jewelry is amazing quality for a great price! Tapestry selection never disappoints! Staff is always friendly and welcoming! Overall, I love this place.
