Located in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. Great store for NYC-related gifts, greeting cards, and thotckes
Friends NYC
Beautiful, Black-owned store in Bed-Stuy with an unreal selection of unique gifts, cards, kitchen accessories, and art.
peace & RIOT
blind boxes, trinkets, galore!
Best selection of plushies, blind boxes, beauty items, and snacks. Teso Life has a ton of variety and carries the more popular Sanrio characters.
TESO Life
Sonny Angel blind boxes, Labubus, and manga aren’t the only things you can find here. There are also claw machines! Get the nerd in your life everything they need (YES, NEED) to have fun.
Akiba House: Official Anime Merch
Extensive selection of snacks, trinkets, and other treats. I also think this is one of the prettiest designed stores.
Pearl River Mart
Always has the latest and newest trinkets. However…good luck with the lines.
POP MART
specialty grocery stores
British Specialty store in Manhattan with a ton of freshly baked goods like sausage rolls and bread. They also have so many snacks and gummies!
Myers of Keswick
Sustainable, virtually zero-waste, bulk-shopping, grocer with homemade kombucha. Such a well-thought out selection of items, too.
Maison Jar
Find REALLY good onigiri, chilli crisp, ramen, TikTok-approved gummies and snacks. I go to Ubi Market almost once a week and it’s really SO good.
Ubi Market (@ubimarket_nyc) · Brooklyn, NY
Literally every South Asian snack you need is in here! I was completely overwhelmed because it was filled to the brim, but loved every second. If you’re a fan of S&B golden curry, they have every flavor.
Apna Bazar Farmers Market
Amazing $3 burgers, hot and cold food bar that has an unbelievable selection. There’s noodles, dumplings, sushi, general tso chicken, sesame chicken, all types of chicken.
Jubilee Marketplace
not just a bar
Lovely bookstore/bar with great vibes and even better curation. The wine is fabulous and I love it.
dear friend books
Stellar, Black, lesbian owned bookstore serving wine and patties. Every single detail of Gladys’ is beautifully curated and it’s truly one-of-a-kind.
Gladys Books & Wine
Fancy listening bar with IMPECCABLE food and drinks. Pretty difficult to get a reservation, but if you sit at the bar you’re good to go usually. Unreal sound system.
Eavesdrop
s3x shops
Everything you might need or might not know you need for spicy time. Queer-friendly, knowledgeable staff, and they also sell wonderful and unique lingerie, too.
Babeland
Overall GREAT selection and staff. Lube, toys, leather…If I remember correctly, they also host events!
Please An Educated Pleasure Shop
One of the largest latex collections (if not the largest) in nyc. Also really k!nk-friendly. You can find wax candles, rope, paddles, etc. to explore your deepest desires
