Great shop, lots of cool gift ideas and personal items. Bought a good-smelling soap for myself. The woman, Aya (I think thats how you spell her name) running the shop was really kind too! Check it out!

LONG BEACH CONSUMERS BEWARE Do yourself a favor and turn around when you walk in, then take a walk over to Park's Antiques on 4th St where you can give your money to a small business that actually deserves your support. Honestly, I'm disappointed by the misleading nature of Cityology's brand message. I will NEVER give my money to a business that openly degrades it's employees in front of paying customers mind you. The manager Angie is NOT pleasant to shop around, and frankly there are a few more issues with their selection & pricing while they hide subtle ethical misconduct behind their small business moniker as a crutch.

Always an adventure. Sometimes I go in just to decompress without intention of buying anything. Looking in shops that have so so many options calm me. You’ve got to slow down and truly look beyond what’s in front of you. I always leave having had bought something. The gals that work the rare terrific. One young woman in particular is my fav and we can get into a chat about almost anything . I love that. Today though was her last day but for all the right reasons onward and upward. Anyhow great shop . Check it out. Long Beach has some great gift shops and this one has been on 2nd Street for as long as I can remember.
