Best Japanese Products Shops In Boston Near Me

R: Hidden gem. Sushi counter and little to-go restaurant inside the store is just wonderful.

Cosmo Borden: Amazing, service was amazing and the staff were absolutely fantastic

Otaku Quartermaster: My go to Japanese grocery!Great for grocery shopping when you are looking for Japanese domestic products.Also a fantastic spot to stop by and grab lunch. Seating is limited, but it is easy enough to grab and go either freshly prepared hot or daily prepackaged cold lunch items.And don't forget your 🍞!

Keiichi Hashimoto: Well, I came to this place only few times, so my review has narrow perspectives. I noticed some has good price and some are not. But I realized if you are Otaku level Japanese traditional ingredients seeker, they have quite surprising items of which typical Japanese would not even use them any more.koji to make own whatever, etc !So,After 32 years of living in Boston area, I noticed more non Japanese people dig depth in Japanese tradition and I personally I learn about my roots from non Japanese people, about anything, food, haiku, 茶道、合気道　or whatever, of course about Anime, too. I am telling you, you guys knows more than us, and you guys would appreciate on something here in this store. I saw kitchen set up, maybe serving sushi or other dishes, during specific hours, but not sure.Unfortunately Japanese restaurants in our are not doing Japanese traditional way to start with, they use Hondashi instead of Real Dashi ways. When I used to work at Tampopo restaurant in Cambridge, MA years ago, regular Japanese customers preferred Hondashi taste on Miso Soup ! and disliked real bonito or anchivi or kombu or shiitake etc...So, go figure !if you are intetested in Japanese way of Vegan, Microbiotics, or General Vegitarian, you might find great ingredients which are not sold at other stores. Each items are properly made in Japanese way, packed and refrigeration in each'ｓ perfection.Also staff member were knowledgeable on my visit, and gave me amazing food information, many in terms of everything, they don't just sell, they know what they have and they will give very useful info and insightful views what is available out there and it was short visits but I learned a lot.other remarks,they have great options for fried gyoza. I prefer pan fried but at end add water to frying pan to get steamed same time as well as burned bottom, I am extra picky about it and Ebisuya carries good kinds for pan fried option.So I would say this is not just typical Japanese convenience store and super market, Japanese Groceries plus specialities....after close look on few things. I still have too many I don't know.Let me know what you think.

Diana C: I love this place. It reminds me of being back in Asia. Be sure to visit sushi counter!

Robert Zaccaria: Good Ramen and other Japanese delicacies.

Caroline DeBrota: Great little shop, very clean and good selection. Prices are high but about what you would expect for a small market full of imported goods.

Dan Emond: Fun market to browse! Great bakery items and fresh food for lunch. Tons of ingredients for cooking, or candies + munchies. Plenty of parking out back, and super easy to get in and out from I-93!

Krys M Gatmaitan: I have been literally looking everywhere for a legit Japanese market like the ones I used to frequent to for years in Japan as a little one. I'm not talking H Mart or other Asian grocers with "all-things Asian". Not that I have anything against them, and I definitely frequent them for most of my Asian needs! But I was looking for a place with anything and all Japanese, and I happened to find it right next to our hotel in Medford of all places. They have full stock on just about anything you would find in a supermarket in Japan, from frozen goods and fresh seafoods to kitchenwares and school supplies. They even have a small restaurant with freshly made bento and made-to-order sushi, AND a fully functioning automatic Toto toilet/bidet in their restroom!For a while now I've been craving arabiki (Japanese sausage) and ever since I left Japan I've only had it once more at Japadog in NYC before they closed. I was nearly brought to tears of joy when I saw that they carried the sausages here, and instantly bought several packs to take home. Among other unique offerings they also had soy sauce dispensers with all different kinds of soy sauce to self service from, and entire sections of Japanese pastries and snacks.We also ordered some fresh made bento and sushi, and were extremely pleased. The oyakodon was to die for, and it was made with haenuki rice, which brought back some fond memories as a child. The tamago nigiri was amazing as well, not to mention the hamachi, tuna, and octopus nigiri we ordered. The only downside, if being picky, is that they don't have any alcoholic beverages. They do have non-alcoholic beer, but nothing that would make you tipsy. No worries there for us, however. We can find them widely available elsewhere.Parking is on the street, so don't forget to pay the meter, it's only 25 cents for 15mins, or if you're like us, walk from the hotel.We could easy spend a whole day here if we wanted to! I know for a fact that we will be making routine stops here if we are in the Boston area again, it's definitely worth the trip!

Tina Lieu: Comprehensive Japanese grocery store with virtually any item you need for Japanese cooking plus baked goods. Perishable items (fish, meat, kamaboko etc.) Are available frozen. Only fish for sushi is available fresh and ready to eat. The sushi department will prepare maki and nigiri to eat there or take out. They also carry many Japanese kitchen goods, utensils and other household items like shampoo.

Ben Lambert: Food counter is excellent!

S K: Small Japanese groceryBasic Japanese cuisine elements, different noodles-they make their own ramen noodles.Tiny onsite eatery (6 tables?) serving a limited but very competently cooked menu.

Jarin Chu: Simple executed well. Don’t hesitate to swing by for your classic nigiri and rolls. This little Japanese supermarket punches above its weight class when it comes to the sushi counter. A simple, no frills spot with nigiri and rolls made to order, the fish quality and freshness is top notch. Their saba is well marinated and partially ‘cooked’ to perfection, still firm and holding itself together. Their shiromi white fish is firm and has plenty of integrity. Sake (salmon) is flavorful and firm. Everything expertly prepared by the chef behind the counter. They don’t skim on their fish for rolls, either — the American crowd pleaser spicy salmon roll had large, firm chunks of salmon paired with flavorful nori. Some of the best I’ve had on the east coast. Tamago was lightly sweet, just the right amount of eggy, and very balanced in dashi flavor. Inari was moist and saturated with flavor. There was simply nothing to pick out as a flaw. FWIW, I’d come here just as easily as I’d want to visit Cafe Sushi in Harvard Sq, and you locals all know how much of a standard bearer that joint is.Ok, if I really had to nitpick, it’d be that Whole Foods has real wasabi packets in their sushi trays, and this wonderful little spot doesn’t. Points for including horseradish wasabi with no food coloring though.

Alexander DiOrio: Come for the sushi stay for the market

Tameka Frink: Great market and they have food made to order there. Tiny town Gem! Love it ❤️

Brian Beauvais: Great market with a good selection.

Peter Sung: good place and the bendo box are delicious!

Julianna Nguyen: Cute little Japanese market. Love how clean it is and the staff is very polite and kind. The only issue I have is the onigiri wraps. The ratio between the rice & the topping / filling should be fixed. There’s way more rice for a little bit of topping.

Billy Lazzaro: Best sushi I've had in years. Market is lovely as well. Everyone who works here is kind and helpful.

Devin FitzM: Japanese rice balls or Onigiri are a picnic must have in my family and they sell them here for a good price. This place has gotten a lot nicer recently too.

Matteo: This store is absolutely phenomenal. The quality of the all items in this store are unmatched for the extremely low prices. The stationary section is my personal favourite. Everything is so clean and simplistic. 10/10 store i would recommend everyone to visit it

Portia Afrin: Lovely place to visit

Haiming Qi: something is not complete

clov: amazing literally

Jake Chvatal: The best store in the area for simple essentials. Love the transparent design language - storage materials can be seen through to identify what's inside, but are never distracting. I go here anytime I need little boxes or storage solutions. Don't be afraid to stray out of your section - I've frankensteined together quite a few great looking storage solutions from throughout the store.

MINGRAN JIA: I arrived at 7:50(8:00 setted close at Saturday), but the the clerk today took it upon himself to close early in order to leave work early.

Qinglin Luan: Meh

Valisa Mayki: This place is worse, we can’t pay by cash but their not even notification the customer. I go so far to buy some stationery but they said they don’t use a cash for a while ( even I don’t need a change)

Gani Ecoresort: Ada diakon 20 %

Vmz Conrad: Newbury street is not complete without a visit to Muji. There are a lot of different things to choose from, of high quality, and at reasonable prices. In particular, I like the stationary. The pens they have are the best!

Tran Bac: Không có nhà vệ sinh

A Bother: Simple, inexpensive stuff for body and home

Lorraine Z: The staff there is very rude and knows nothing about their product. They provided me the wrong product information and then refused return the order for me and even asked me to leave the store. I strongly recommend to avoid this store!

Aditya Malik: Clean store with a great selection

Raghav Hari Krishna: Amazingly simple and quality products! Some items are slightly pricey but definitely worth it. Great comfortable clothes too!Definitely a big recommend for people looking to get quality products and a bit of Japanese culture and products.

Fang G: Bought a flannel shirt when it was on sale in October. Broken after one time wash. Went back to the store (within 30 days) to see if they could offer at least an exchange due to the quality issue. The female cashier heard that it was washed and broken then immediately said that they can’t accept broken items because everything they take back would go back to the shelf for resale. Unbelievable. I asked if they had any quality control team and can take a look at the broken area and she said no, they don’t have that. Again, unbelievable. I asked for her name and she refused to give me her name. No one knows if it was broken already before the purchase or after it was washed. But none of the situations is acceptable. Be careful and pay attention to the item you are buying and do a detailed check I guess. Wont be back to this store because we felt like we were treated as fraud and the way she looked at us was like we intentionally broke the shirt and we came back for something.

Filip Galiza: MUJI in Boston is a beautiful Japanese “IKEA” store that offers style, selection and great customer service. I would love to see more inventory as their NYC stores are of similar size but offer much more.Besides that, I definitely recommend checking it out.

rachael yuan: the stamp station is so fun. love their notebooks.

Gen Mail: Not impressed.

Rachel: You can never go wrong with taiyaki, and this hidden gem in Seaport is the place for taiyaki. The staff were helpful and welcoming. I live in Florida but visit Boston often, and I will be coming back!

Derek Darko: Taiyaki NYC is peak ice cream. There isn't a single bad flavor. Try it as soon as possible.

Matt S: This was good. The custard tasted very nice

Nell: Super yummy, great taiyaki ice cream! the workers were nice and the food didn't take too long. the space was a little small but still nice :))

Melina Hopkins: Such a cute little shop! Friendly and fast service. The space is small and limited to six guests so it makes sense why there is always a line.

fRobert Myers: What's not to love about the 'gramable soft serve ice cream in a fish shaped pastry?

Casey Comisky (JokerES): Good, but a little expensive.

sruthi Kotla: I ordered chocolate and the taste wasn't according to the hype,disappointed because ice-cream started melting by the time I came out of the store, taste is average and didn't like the cone

sara ziane: Love it

Emily Hamman: Love these fish cones 😋 orders come out quick, which is great. Just wish the ordering process and getting in and out of the shop was smoother! Would also be nice if there was space to enjoy indoors.

Will Rosewater (Will): The nicest people and amazing service. Always get the custard!

shriti jaiswal: Tiny place with delicious ice cream menu. You can mix flavours. We tried the chocolate flavour. The fish cone is the different than most other flavour. It’s packed withh custard and taste lovely with the ice cream. Surely try if looking for a quick and different ice cream flavours.

Guy Zylberberg: Surprisingly great! Just make sure to expect a line.

Svetlana Pribytkova: Nice little place with fish cone ice cream

Lotty Melidor: My favorite ice place in sea port.

Thanh Tan Yves Nguyen: To the owner(s) of Taiyaki at Seaport, thanks to the 3 employees hiding behind the counter, we left after 5 minutes watching them hide while on their phones and took our business to Ben and Jerry’s around the corner.I guess today wasn’t the day for over priced novelty ice cream in a fish shaped cone.Ben and Jerry’s was much better anyways.

Biki Takashima-Uebelhör: We live by the one in Harvard, but this one at the Seaport is our favorite hands down. Their taiyaki ice cream is amazing (especially the Hōjicha and matcha swirl) but their taiyaki alone are soooo good (both azuki and custard) and have improved so much over the years. They do taste like the ones in Japan now (the Harvard one is about behind, with their taiyaki a bit deflated and on the small side). The service is great too. Really friendly staff, even when they are busy in the small space they’ve got and you have kids with you.

marc capitano: We got a unicorn Taiyaki and it was amazing

Pink Taroreh: YUMMMY!!! Every time I passed by this place, it always had a long line. But this time - Friday night around 9ish, it was empty. I got the “Straight Outta Japan” and it was so so good 😭♥️ didn’t expect the taiyaki cone would be this crunchy (but also soft) so so so good. Also theres red bean at the end of the cone. Perfect last bite!! Ice cream was also so soft and not too creamy! 10/10 would come back.

West Liu: 好吃好拍照

Richard Callahan: Not the cleanest place but has all the hard to find veggies and good fresh fish

Blu Lu: Bad credit , unreliable, don‘t buy from them !

kimmy D: Very bad company! Bad credit ! No pay vendor for 180days !

Mon Liu: This place is competed against by CMART down the street which proves to be much busier possibly due to having parking lots.I usually come in here first bc CMART is usually too many people due to probably bc theres parking there. Here there are more snacks.

Wai Leung: 品種齊全，價格便宜。

Tammy Y: Fresh pork with appropriate cuts for asian dishes. Also they carry a whole list of previously frozen offals that you don't normally find at your neighborhood grocers. Downside is their hole in the wall store front and sometimes awful smell.

sonia brodsky: New management does not mean better management. Horrible customer service. If you're afraid a 67-year-old grandmother is skimming off too much scallion off you, tell your employees to stop batching them in that quantity. Even if she grabbed a particular big batch of scallion, so what? IT'S. GREEN. ONIONS. Knowing your competition is just down the street and you can't compete on prices due to higher import costs now, you would think it would be smarter to start differentiating yourself with better customer service. Guess that's not common sense to some people. Shameful way of running a business.

Gordon Fong: Good prices

Qisen Luan: Have some groceries more expensive than c-mart, but now overall are cheaper.

rosalind pendleton: I enjoy shopping at Ming's the fish is awesome the vegetables are always fresh only problem language but that's okay I know how to point at what I need

Austin Le: No parking

Allxfox562: Some of the rudest employees ive ever encountered 😂 😂 😂

Lisa M Furr: It's a great market if you can find a person who works there, that speaks English and is willing to help you. Not one of my favorite places

Eve Oz: Love everything about this store

Hong Ma: Enough free parking space, decent quality of product. variety and smell are not that great

cat: I used to prefer shopping here than others for 8 years, but their shelves have been empty and prices are higher than other supermarkets. I have given a lot of chances, but nothing really changes.

Thomas Moy: Pricing for items very reasonable.

Greg Dias: Went to get 5 lobsters

Elizabeth Weimann: I enjoy seeing the wide variety of foods and other goods, but I have to ignore the odors that hit me at the front door. My husband got a really nice new wok and we selected a wide variety of dumplings and some seasonings not available in other places. The produce was beautiful and the fish looked fresh but the odors were apparently coming from the old freezer units that need to be replaced in the section with the fish,meat and produce.

Kim Taylor Knight: Great prices and variety.

Kevin Bassett: A nice store in a convenient location. It has a wide variety of Japanese grocery items.

Juro M: I wish they'd bring back bentos in Arlington.

Jessy McQuaw: Fantastic selection of ready-to-eat lunches, made just before the lunch rush starts. Maki sushi, chirashi bowls, gyuudon, chicken karaage, tempura shrimp. And plenty of Japanese groceries as well. They recently began milling their own grades of rice, which I'm excited to try!

Shashu Bao: Great selection of Japanese pantry items, meat, produce, vegetables and prepared food. Super friendly staff. Great spot to check out and go out of your way to visit if you’re into Japanese food

Karen I: This place is smaller than one in brookline, but has a good selection of necessary things.

Corey Pedersen: Great selection of high quality ingredients! It can be hard to find things if you don’t read Japanese but it’s still approachable enough to find your way.

J K: Best authentic bento 🍱 place! I also grabbed some onigiri 🍙 and dango 🍡. I love visiting this place when I miss visiting Japan.

Akira Shimabukuro: Visiting this store always comes with joy. It has pretty much everything you need to live a life like you are in Japan. Natto and sashimi are always available. One thing to mention is price. I wish the prices would be lower.

YILI LING: Nice little supermarket that has a wide selection of Japanese products.

Robin Yukiko: I always love coming to Maruichi. I usually come when my supply of bottled milk tea is low, but frequently end up wandering the aisles getting lost in nostalgia and temptation.From the produce (especially mushrooms) to the bakery, to the household goods, I always feel like I'm back in Japan when I come in. The staff are always friendly and helpful when you have a question.I only wish I lived next door so I could come every day for my onigiri!

oo-: ほりだしものがたくさんあります。定員さんもやさしい。

Brendon Thomas: One of the best Japanese grocery stores I've been to on the East Coast. Their pre-prepared food options and great and I love stopping by even if it's just for a pollock roe onigiri.

Jeffrey Kwong: Best place in greater Boston for fresh sashimi and Japanese groceries

Y K: Great place to buy Japanese food

Matthew Urick: a nice grocery store

Max Ide: A great grocery store with a wide variety of Japanese food.

Sam Archer: Maruichi is a fantastic grocery store. They carry pretty much all of the specific Japanese ingredients I can ask for, in decent variety, with good prices. They also have an extensive home goods section. Every time I come back, this place has gotten better - new seasonal products, expanded popular offerings, increased selection - I'm really enjoying sampling the various soba noodles right now. If they add some bicycle parking in the back, I will petition Google Maps to let me give six stars. (ᵔᴥᵔ)

c l: Updating after a year to add that I love their seasonal products. It's fun to go and find something new and tasty. Most recently some rose milk tea (yum!). Love the nigiri, mochi, sushi, bento and asian veggies. Lots of different snacks, seasonings and Japanese goods.Old review: I finally got my vaccine and shopped for the first time today. Lovely selection of Japanese foods and so many tempting options. It is a small space, but packed with items. I will be back for sure.

Anthony Maiorana: Solid little store for getting some of those essential Asian ingredients and Japanese staples. Do not expect being able to find everything here, but rather it's a place you can stop in and grab essentials or enough stuff for a few days as opposed to doing a big shop.

Olivia Tran: So delicious

Angela Jones: Super helpful and friendly staff! Great selection!

Cristian Vargas: Jace, Cameron and Tyler are the best team. Super helpful, super friendly and made the experience wonderful

Jae V: Cameron, Jace, and Tyler were the most helpful and amazing people ever! It was such a great experience and they have such good merchandise and they're super knowledgeable and friendly!

Mady Ghezzi: Tyler is the best!!! Everything there is awesome and all the workers are there to help you as well as make really cool conversation.

Bella P: great place, lots of anime stuff

Bethany Cruson: Super friendly and very helpful staff

Justin Pearson: Love this store if your ever in the Newbury area downtown Boston check it out and ask for Ty he’s the best !

Tzigane West: Love this store! The staff is always so nice and helpful and they always have a good variety of merchandise.

loan west: This place is amazing if you’re an anime fan! Only at Anime Zakka!

Kenny C. (WillYouKoiKoi): The boss is amazing and accommodated a product for me and lowered an item for me!

Tom R: Fantastic store with incredible selection. Customer service is off the charts!

lily: Staff is so helpful and really went above and beyond! Owner took notice to the series I was looking at and was kind enough to take out the entire bin of merchandise from that series that they had yet to put out. Whenever I visit Boston, this is one of the first places I visit and that will never change. They always have a great selection of merchandise from a bunch of different series and while sometimes the pricing is a bit expensive, i would say the customer service makes it worth it!

ham: very polite, very nice and welcoming very helpful tyler was very helpful to me and my grandma well respectful!

Angel Reveron: Awesome.

Anthony Fulton: Best shopping experience of my life, Tyler was incredibly helpful and the owner is a godsend

Mystic DA Kid: The vibe of the store is perfect. The employees are very helpful and the owner is very supportive. The music, the products, everything is high quality. Special thanks to Tyler for being super cool and getting us what we needed.

Jabari: Best anime shop I have ever been at thus far. If you’re looking for something specific, just ask, they will always have it!!! Customer service and community as a whole in this store is amazing! 10/10 review Thanks for making my anime experience better !

Jamie Kendall: Had a great time here after our weekend at PaxEast! Henry and his staff were friendly and knowledgeable, and we will definitely stop by next time we are in town.

Stephen Oleksak: Best spot for figures in Boston 😎

Mirror B: Tyler was very helpful and chill to talk to

NM P: They have an excellent selection of Asian foods and products. My one quibble is that many Asian vegetables come pre-bagged, and you can't select the amount that you want. That's fine for bean sprouts but not bok choy.

Elden: Nice

Janine Lin: They fixed their fridge and freezer temperatures! Now the buns and dumplings are buyable. Just need to be cautious if that section of the fridge or freezer temperature is cold enough and the meat or bun looks fresh or frozen individually in the package.They have some nice snack and various Chinese dry goods. Most of the veggies are good. Meats (frozen or refrigerated) are descent. The fruits and fish sections are not quite fresh enough.It’s nice to not having to drive more than 15-20 mins to get Chinese groceries. The parking is a big plus!

E T: Hard to find things and know the price. Closer to my home than my usual Asian supermarket, so it's convenient for getting a few things rather than going into Boston Chinatown

Annop Lins: Various selections, with frequent discounts and promotions.

Colbe M: Huge selection of Asian food, etc.

Chris E: An absolute gem. Best prices on meat and seafood!

Maggie Morio: Love this supermarket. Large variety of fruits and vegetables, especially Chinese greens. Large variety of Oriental noodles, wheat and rice and a whole variety of soy sauce, sesame oil and all the Oriental spices. The prices are very reasonable as well.

Priyanka Pal: Too expensive… for cutlery and stuff. We asked for help to find lotus root but we couldn’t get the help as they didn’t understand English. But we eventually found it.

Hiram Duarte: Even if you are just looking for produce? Go! Stand the test between them and other chain grocery stores.So many different things to choose from and how fresh can fish and crab be? They are still alive!

Ronald Libby: I needed some hard to find ingredients and couldn't find them anywhere else. They had everything I needed in stock and I bought loads of other things. They have a great food court too with amazing food.

Lianbo LI: 太贵了

Sarah Thomson: This place has EVERYTHING. Incredible selection of affordable produce, frozen fish (frozen food in general), fresh meat and snacks. This is my favorite Asian market!

Jake Chvatal: Great Asian food options! Easy to grab some great food from a restaurant's booth while shopping for other groceries. Prices are better than H-Mart too!

Bo Jiang: Google map says it closes at 9pm, not totally right, it stops entering at 8:50pm, it happened to me on Chinese new year Eve. I ended up buying vavoli in Shaw's instead.

shinlin LIN: 蠻好逛的應有盡有很符合台式口味

Hendro Hioe: uhhh I LOVE it here

Eric Wang: The place is unsanitized and sells tons of expired products. We discovered that many of the vegetables are moldy and the fish smells horrible. The cashier was also extremely rude, and we never heard back from our refund request.

Star Blidgen: This is one of the best super 88 markets in Boston fresh fruits foods from all backgrounds in your everyday needs in the heart of Austin Brighton restaurants and more

Purushartha Singh: Pretty much the best Asian supermarket i could find. They have all kinds of groceries, snacks, meats and fishes. They even keep basic utensils and kitchen tools for sale. I have had no issues finding a host of options for basic things from Thai, Chinese or Japanese cuisine even as a person not from those cultures.

Ari Radcliffe-Greene: I'm giving this place five stars because the execution is well done. However, these chocolates all have a kind of malted flavor which I disike. I don't know whether that is common for Japan or whether it is the signature of this place, but it is not my cup of tea. I would prefer to make my own chocolates or go to Gate Comme des Filles, which I believe has the best quality chocolates in Boston. Although the owner there is eccentric.

Janak Joshi: Amazing Japanese chocolates. Incredible taste and consistency.What's the tip for during checkout?? :)

Arin Friedlander: Melt-in-your-mouth chocolate, friendly staff and even a free ice pack in the bag to keep it chilled. Highly recommend the refrigerated varieties, especially the Darjeeling.

porsche 930: Great chocolate, but extremely over priced in the US.

Emely Torres: Staff working today were so nice and very helpful!

Lina Lin: The chocolate is unique and delicious. Staff is friendly and helpful.

Louis Shinohara: Friendly Staff. Chocolate here is great! Very unique and delicious without a doubt

Changyan Wang: Very nice and they gave an extra bar for free!

Jea Kim: Japanese chocolate shop that specializes in milk chocolates.Royce chocolates have been one of my favorites chocolates ever since I tried them in Tokyo couple of years ago, and I was excited to find their store in Boston. Their soft texture is a huge differentiating factor from other generic or European chocolates, and although the prices are double what you would pay for in Japan, they were still worth getting. They still had a fence right near the entrance to limit in store shopping, so it was somewhat difficult to browse through their menu. Nevertheless, I will come back to get my favorite milk chocolates and their new flavors.If you’re a fan of soft chocolates, I recommend trying them out.

Wanlin Guo: Good service, but u can only look at their menu instead of looking at shelf right now

Sheng-Chieh Lu: Very rude staff. We could understand the current covid situation but the service was very awful. Customers are not allowed to look around and the staff doesn't want to explain more about their product either. The staff lady seems like doesn't want to spend any second with the customer, that's not the service we had in a Japanese brand shop worldwide.

Jane W: Very rude and unprofessional. Didn't expect the service from Royce. I understand it is under covid so nothing is usual. Yet the direction was unclear. It only allowed online order and pickup which on their website showed the ready time would be two days later. And they actually gonna pack your order right away. They could have just put a notice out with that QR code to explain. And the female staff was screaming all the time.

Zichang Ruan: Taking covid seriously, can't walk around the store, but you can order right behind the door

Jahnvi Shah: Is it eggless?

Abhishek Setty: Super yummy chocolate! Definitely pricey $$I would suggest this

Maggie Xiang: Had better experience here this time ..she was really helpful and they have more selection than last year

joyce: This royce has more limited option for nama chocolate was the classic ones are all there!

Yuri S: Went there three times at their business hours. NEVER OPENED.

Parker K: After being closed since the start of 2020, they're back open as of Jan 31st. The new management has already shown great changes. The store is super clean and we'll stocked. Employees are plentiful and extremely helpful. The new uniforms are sharp and the store finally has a great new makeover that matches the great quality of these chocolates!

Suri Roth-Katz: It's disappointing to plan a trip to store that says it's open only to find it closed...

Eliza Jovel: Very beautiful handmade items

Edith Goldman: Tons of wonderful pens, inks and paper. Fantastic sales person working there, very knowledgeable and super friendly.

John Kenny: The staff here were so helpful and were even willing to offer their own personal notebooks so I could try paper that would be similar to the types I usually write on. Owen and Gabby are the best! Thank you both so much

Barry Lee: Beautiful store and everyone was wicked helpful!Great selection!!

Mehrdad Abolbashari: Elegant Japanese stationary

Sanjana Malani: Beautiful pens!

Demetrius Davis: I absolutely love this store. They have the best customer service out of any store in Boston & on Newbury. I highly recommend shopping there. Plus they have great merchandise as well.

Broken Laundry Door Hernandez: There's like mad stuff here, some of it is wicked expensive but like it's dope.

Kacey Avellone: Great shop for stationery, pens/pencils, and gifts. Love the Kolo line of bags and pouches. Friendly staff.

Charlie Thorne: I can't wait to share this story! I went to a local pen store today because I wanted to get an ink refill for the best pen I've ever written with and it was just an average experience, like checking out a book at the library. Then I looked at that awesome pen, The Kaweco Skyline Sport Rollerball and it was this shop, Topdrawer, that turned me onto that pen! Furreal, it is my sword and shield this pen and I wish the guy's name was on my receipt (I still have it) so I could give him a shout out. I was Grasshopper when I walked in and he was Master Po. When it came to his knowledge of different types of ink and what worked best for different writing styles he led me through all the options like a shepherd looking after his young lamb. Next time I get back to Boston I will make a return trip to the Topdrawer Temple and load up on pens and knowledge. Seriously, the Kaweco Skyline Sport with the rollerball Gel will rock your medulla oblongata. I just checked the date of my receipt, 10/16/19 -1301 hours. I know it sounds a little strange but think how much time you spend with your pen, you should choose it as carefully as you would a pair of shoes or a life partner. I wish I had a Topdrawer here in Columbia, MD. You all are top shelf, no dust! Below picture that's the fox color in my left hand and mint in the right. The mint color is really baller!

Svetlana Sohma: Cool stuff, but much too expensive.

Emile P: The cutest minimalist cards

Paul Tromans: Very quaint shop ideal for artistic types after an idea or material for a project.Colourful shop well worth a visit

Darya Aleksandrova: This is a cool little store! They carry things useful for travel. A lot of stuff is imported from Japan. I love their erasable pens.

Zack Jameson: In Boston for convention one block over from store. I have a Topdrawer near me in Chicago and wanted to see this store. This store is smaller but it is beautiful and has some unique items also. Loved it. Staff is super nice too.

Ana Hart: It's okay

Michael DiPietro: Great selection, super quality and great service.

Jill Springer Gostic: Has great travel gear not found in other stores.

Ricky Viejo: this store is great, can't believe that it's been in Newbury for over a year and I'd never been in it. I had a great time browsing through their very unique products; topdrawer is great for gifts and travel goods. Bought a sick raincoat as well, will go again for sure. :^)

James Bacon: This is a wonderful stationary and travelling store. Popped in and was very impressed with the Romeo Paper and pens, a new brand to me, from Japan. Exceptionally good service from Cecilia, who helped us and also gave us space, and then nice unrushed natural chat.
