I was expecting there to be Kringle at a place called the Kristmas Kringle Shoppe, but alas there was none to be found. They should lean into the name a bit and at least reserve a corner to sell some Kringle for those who were looking.
That being said, as a Christmas store - this place was very magical and I was impressed by all the decor and options and the atmosphere. It felt like stepping back into a Christmas village and reminded me of all the years spent with family and friends over the holidays and the memories we had made.

Definitely went above and beyond. I've wanted to come here for years and now I'm so happy I had just wish I would have done it sooner. I...
Read moreVery disappointed in the customer service. I was gifted a very expensive battery operated candle that worked for one week. I brought it in to return or exchange and I was told no. I asked if it could be repaired and the answer was “ the manufacturer wouldn’t take it back.” She didn’t even look into it. I left the $75 gift there as it’s junk and doesn’t work. Solving problems or coming up with a solution for customers is how you keep them happy. I have two full Christmas village sets mostly from your store and have spent thousands over the years. Very disappointing and I will be going elsewhere...
