The best! Eclectic selection of awesome, quirky, fun, and artistic things. A great place to find a card or a gift for any occasion, or for yourself, as I try not to do every time I go in there. The staff is very helpful but Ive never had anyone push anything on me or follow me around the store; they are there and knowledgeable, but will let you just absorb whats around you while youre trying to browse. Parking can be a little challenging, but as long as you are aware of this its not a problem. Besides, its a wonderful place to be on foot! Keep your eyes peeled for their sales, and for the pooches that sometimes come in to visit.

Since late 1992 after serving in the U.S. Navy, I started going to Mongrel as my local source for greeting cards, soy candles and other eco-friendly household items. A few months ago I purchased a brass telescope as a birthday gift, and a few days ago I bought a specialty birthday card imbedded with wildflower seeds. That birthday card can be torn up a planted, so the gift continues! This store has such a wide variety of unique high quality merchandise, and I love supporting a high quality local businesses like this one!

Great store for unique greeting cards and trinket gifts, both artsy and ribald. Lots of laugh-out-loud politically incorrect greeting cards and tchotchkes, mostly from a liberals perspective. This is the kind of place you go into for browsing and a chuckle but somehow end up buying a little gem you didnt need, but tickles your fancy enough to want to open you wallet.

Tons of cool, novel items for gifts and every room in your house. Books, knick knacks, knives, wallets, camping gear, cards and paper, and a million other things. Some affordable, some expensive. Absolutely worth checking out.

Mongrel has a great selection unique items, from the cards to the wrapping papers. Id say the prices are pretty fair here, though there are occasionally items that are a little overpriced. Love the RVA themed stuff.

Filled to the brim, gift store/card shop in Carytown. From richly scented candles to hand printed note cards with a little bit of everything in between. Youll be charmed, for sure. Not for claustrophobics.

Good selection of holiday gifts for all ages and types of people. Very friendly vibe throughout. Although things can be pricey, they tend to be unique items that will make for great gifts.

Love this store. I just go from one area to another thinking "I gotta buy that too now". I made it out without destroying my wallet. Really cool stuff. Locally made gifts too.

Mongrel is a really nifty place filled with just about everything you can think of! Great place to shopping for gifts/presents, but some items are quite pricey.

Love this store! Great selection of unique gifts and surprisingly competitive prices. This is the place to go for fun magnets and off-color greeting cards.
