Has great cards and gift items. Good stock of plants too which many places are no longer carrying as it is late in the season. I got some good quality home supplies too. Truly something for everyone! Note that they do allow dogs into the store.

Excellent small but well-stocked hardware and home store, kind of a miniature Home Depot, but with a knowledgable and friendly staff always jumping to help. I always go here first for my hardware, plumbing, tool, and electrical needs. I seldom have to suffer through a trip to Home Depot or Eagle through Seattles perpetually gridlocked traffic. These guys have everything you need 98% of the time.

Dropped by yesterday for some stainless fasteners and was pleasantly surprised to find that, yet again, City People had everything I needed to put together my one-off project.All-up, the purchase cost less than the components I had priced out on Amazon. Instant is even better than two-day delivery and the fastener-quality exceeded what I found online without going to industrial suppliers.If youve never been, their selection of home-repair and light-construction hardware may exceed your expectations. Unless they dont have sufficient quantity, there is a good chance they stock something that will meet your hardware needs.

Small General hardware stores like this are gold mines if you take the time and walk the isles, Im a electrical construction journey man and found some cool stuff in here. Its ran by locals and owned by locals. Its a womans place and mans also. Your not going to find big contractor stuff here, but I bought tools, electrical parts, essential oils, tropical plants, and some cool oddball one of kind stuff, I always stop in here when Im working in the U-district. Take your time.......or you will miss the prize!

Love this place they have great stuff. I also enjoy spending time in the perennial garden. I come here for bedding plants and tomato plants. Top notch quality.

Good place to find predictably good products. Visited the gardening section, getting veggie starts, some flower starts, and top soil. Someone was available to carry the soil to the car - bonus!Lots of stuff available seasonally, and the staff seem informed about the uses of what they have.

This is a really nice and convenient HW store. Because its small it doesnt have everything. But it does have some great hard to find parts. Like sharkbite fittings to block off a copper pipe, etc. It also has a great garden center.

We happened along this store on our way trying to find the troll under the bridge. Very clean store. Was alittle pricy! But you could tell it was in a upscale neighborhood!

Best gift shop in NE Seattle. Oh, and I also get many of my home project and gardening supplies there. I like that it is locally owned.Last time I visited I saw Seattle gardening hero Cisco Morris there!

Really nice little place but it is not a hardware store. Amazing garden center but if you need real hardware or tools this probably isnt the place

The goods stocked and store policies have gone downhill since it was sold a few years ago. Occasionally I go check in to see if things have improved, but its always disappointing.

Hardware, paint, home goods, gifts, houseplants, and a garden store/nursery in the season. Whats not to love?! A favorite place to wander and browse, even if you dont need anything...

They close at 5pm now but never bothered to update Google. Its annoying when you spend a half hour driving cross town to avoid going to Home Depot and Lowes and they simply have a sign saying closed sorry.Please claim your Google account!Still no update 1 month later. Google says they close at 6 but when you get there they have posted signs saying temporary hours closes at. 5.Annoying as hell!

Nice neighborhood store. Not a true hardware. Cant find a lot of stuff needed.

Review №26

Basically 3 stores in 1! The front section has high quality general merchandise (gifts, housewares, decor, bathroom/kitchen, etc.). The back section has True Value hardware (tools, paint, plumbing, electrical, yard, etc). The seasonal nursery building has live plants and soil amendments. The staff is attentive and knowledgeable, and local owners really invest in the community. I go here for innovative kids birthday presents, quality housewares, and most of my hardware needs. I dont know what I would do without it!

Store hours inaccurate, though it comes up as a hardware store, looking through the windows I dont see anything related to that.

Love, love, love City People! They have some of everything and always reasonably priced. Some furniture, food stuffs, awesome kitchen supplies, loads of fun stuff and a great candy selection. Wonderful gift selections!

I love the set up of this store. My toddler and I had a blast looking at everything. If you are hoping to make a quick purchase, use the registers at the north end on the store. (There were two ready cashiers here.) The one in the clothing area is extremely slow. She looked like she was taking great care of the customer at the register, but more customers were lining up behind me. I walked to the back of the store and was out before the customer in front of me was helped.

Cool store but I wish I wasn’t being followed like I was a shoplifter. I get it...I’m much younger than your typical clientele, I have tattoos, but I also have a great job and money to spend, so—

Review №37

Shopping here for 5 years. I would say 20% of the employees are personable, interactive, and helpful. The other 80% are divided between genuinely crotchety older adults, spacey introverted teen/adults, and a special category which snap at children for no real reason. I guess its a genuine seattle freeze shopping experience- nice dispays, a dearth of nice people, and high prices. Just wish shopping local could be more positive.

Surprisingly jam packed with most hardware you need for general home maintenance and lots of surprising upscale gifts and fun objects for the home/apartment. I genuinely am surprised they carry as much as they do.

Great place with friendly staff. Has everything from Hardware to odds and ends for your house. Prices are pretty good especially when compared to the big box stores.

Nice to occasional visit & purchases. I used to shop at the Original City People in Madison. This just doesnt compare to me. To cramped. Not many bargains or sales to be found for a great find or savings.

I love that there is a pretty well-stocked hardware store coexisting with the more boutique-like main store.

They have some of what you want, and its convenient in the neighborhood. Youll pay 75 percent more than you need, but you wont have to deal with traffic.

I like this store mostly for the garden shop tools and plants. The Store has an out of this century feel to it which I like, it reminds me of when I was living in the country and shopped the general store for hard goods.
