Awesome place to visit! All
Kinds of Austin, Texas and southwestern type gifts along several rows with individual booths. Fun to saunter along and discover cool stuff! Yep- we bought several items. Clean restroom in the back. Great value for what we got- and the employees were friendly. We even got a free praline just for checking in here on Yelp! Thank you for the treat!!Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - 396231649Nov 30, 2023
Omg, how freaking fun is this place!!! I could've spent hours on end looking at everything in here! Not to mention the fact that everyone was so incredibly friendly. I can't wait to bring friends in here. Everything was priced just as I expected and I walked away spending a good chunk (for fun gifts) for a Friendsgiving party we have this weekend!

We make it here every year to search for stocking stuffers and unique local gifts. There's always something for someone to be found. Great service and free wrapping.

Hey Michaela
Thanks so much for the review. We really appreciate your business - 15165257Jun 13, 2023
I was recommended by a friend to come check this store out. Wow!!! If you are looking for a different gift for your someone this is by far the most unique gift place chalk full of everything you can think of and things you didn't. The prices are truly varied depending on the gifts. However you can easily find something here. From the serious person, or artsy, to the wild and silly. I'm not joking when I say they have a little of everything! Word of caution, be prepared to spend at least an hour if you want to even get a glimpse of everything they have to offer. The other plus is for folks like me (not from Austin), it's in a good location, easy to find and get to. I'll be back next time I'm stuck for gifts.

This is the type of gift store I look for anytime I travel and am thrilled it's in my hometown! It's got unique souvenirs and wickedly funny gifts for any occasion. Each aisle has an array of items from local artists. Think of it as a brick and mortar Etsy.
I try not to visit often as I'm *trying* to be a minimalist but the force is too strong in this store. Funny thermos? Add to cart! Alien earrings? Add to cart! Buyer beware. You'll find things that you never knew you needed!
Pro tip: If you're visiting Austin, grab your souvenirs here and head down the street on Lamar for a meal at Kerbey Lane or Torchy's Taco.Helpful 3Thanks 0Love this 3Oh no 1Business owner information

They had everything you could think of!! Not only Texas and Austin items, but many unique things! It was fun to just browse up and down each aisle looking at each individual vendor booth!

Austin Gift Company is SO fun. I could probably spend everyday in here if I could. The store is filled with tons of "stalls" that sell goods made by local Austin folks. There is anything you could ever want in the store from jewelry, to stickers, to t-shirts, to candy, to toys , to bags, to plastic egg cartons with funny sayings, to everything else you could ever imagine.
This place would be great for gifts for family or friends, souvenirs for those visiting Austin, or anything in-between. I definitely recommend that everybody checks out this place!! It is amazing.Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0Business owner information

I pride myself on being an excellent gift giver and this gift store has been a missing piece for me! I'm so glad I came here. There are so many unique options and sections for everyone, and even the pickiest person you have to shop for! I love all the recycled items, the quirky flower pots, fun artsy work, cards, games, dishware, body and skincare products and the jewelry!!! Plenty of Texas themed and non Texas themed gifts. This store is like a luxury boutique, flea market, pop up shop, crafted local vendor gift shop all rolled into one!! There's still so much that I did not get to see--you could easy spend an hour Or three here shopping. I love all the butterfly themed gifts (for myself haha) if you are getting house warming gifts again, so many options to choose from. I have to say my favorite section was the cards! When I come back I will be stocking up! Cant wait to come back and surprise all of my loved ones with special gifts!

Take your time here. They have so many gems all over the place. A lot of small items so you really have to take your time in here. I had very specific things that I was searching for. Mostly Austin treasures. I have a friend moving here, so I was looking for Austin house warming items, such as koozies, coasters, cutting board, and a few other items. And believe it or not, I did find those items and couple other items I didn't know I needed too. I was also on the search for Christmas items. YES, I'm that person that is searching for Christmas items 12 month in advance. I got this cute idea to shop for, again Austin items for my family back home. But instead of Christmas gifts. It's going to be an advent calendar, so they will get a little something every day for 25 days in December. Genius right?! Austin kitchen towels, Texas honey. Texas ornaments. So many wonderful items here, but you have to be patient and you have to be in the mood to look at every single tiny detail. There's a lot packed in here. The 2 young ladies I spoke to on Sunday night were just absolute dolls, very nice. We chatted up about all kinds of stuff, you know, the stuff that makes you feel like, there's no other place like Austin. People are just people and I felt like I was among my people. Made me feel welcomed and felt like this is the "it" store to get your Austin treasures for your own Austin Texas pride and to share Austin with friends and family that have never been here. Oh also, I found 2 Valentines gifts for my coworkers. I am on my gift giving game this year.

The shop is definitely packed with a very large selection of items. Unfortunately, I'm left with a very disappointed experience. We happened to find this shop in our last day in Austin. I purchased 3 t-shirts ($74.86). They were rolled up and tied with a piece of straw ribbon. I wear a medium/large, but I thought I was playing it safe by getting them in an XL size. Well, the joke is on me! They fit like a small/medium! They are so tight. I was going to send them by mail to my son in order to exchange or get a refund. Again, the joke is on me since the receipt states ALL SALES ARE FINAL! Now I'm stuck with useless shirts.?

Amber, have you talked with anyone at the store before writing this review?
You are always welcome and encouraged to untie the shirt to make sure it fits. Two of the tees you purchased are a ladies cut the other is a unisex fit. Regardless we do returns all the time. You are welcome to send the shirts back and I will be happy to refund you
