One of my favorite gift shops! They sell some really fun things- stained glass, clothes, cards, and much more.

Well-curated and nicely presented. The staff is large, so most employees dont know much about individual items/makers (e.g., jewelry materials, which are often unlabeled). Regardless its always a pleasure to browse and pick up gifts. I hope this shop pulls makes it through and continues to stick around.

Absolutely adore this little gift shop! Located right in the heart of Davis Square, it’s easy to walk right past but DO NOT!They have all sorts of gift items from jewelry, tea, felt work, baby items, body products, pins, and more. They also have a great selection of unique cards. You can’t leave here without wanting something or finding the perfect gift for someone else.I think I just found a new destination when searching for that perfectly unique gift (especially for the person who already has everything)...PS. Staff are so friendly!

I can’t believe how long it took me to discover this shop, but I’m glad I did. Local and well-curated shop, with incredible selection of gorgeous craft goods, home goods, and print crafts. Excellent place to buy gifts for your queer and feminist fam while supporting a local independent crew.

This is one of those dangerous little gift shops where you just want to walk in, pour the contents of your wallet on the counter, and leave with every single item. From mini ecosystems in glass balls to cute graphic tees to beautiful locally-made jewelry, Magpie is a one-stop shop for all your gifting needs. (And if you cant find everything you want, you can check out another awesome gift shop, Davis Squared, right across the street!)

Magpie is a pretty cool shop. I love that you see a bunch of artwork from local artists. However, there was nothing that really popped. I was there to see if I could find a birthday gift for my mom and I found nothing. The few stuff I did find were very overpriced. I do give credit to the artist they are really talented. But if you want someplace that is unique this may not be your place.

Did you ever wonder what Etsy would be like in real life? Wonder no more, my friend. While other Davis Square stores might have some similar style quirky gifts, i I feel like no other store than Magpie is really servicing an actual handmade feel. Similar to the punk rock flea market or the Bizarre Bazaar, only year round, Magpie has a gift youll guarantee your recipient will be surprised over.

This is a cute little shop to get unique gifts for friends. If its to crowded, its hard to move around. Many of the artists who sell their items are local.

Looking for a gift thats a little different? Or maybe you just wanna treat yo self. Either way, Magpies got you covered. Theres a wide selection with a range of price points to match, from baby stuff to handmade jewelry to smart-assed mugs to quirky notecards you wont find in Hallmark. Be sure to check the back alcove for quirky little prints to hang in your nest, too.So come on, skip the mall and buy local!

Need a last-minute indie gift for that wedding, birthday or upcoming holiday? Magpie is your store.This small, whimsical shop is located right in the heart of Davis Square and remains to be my favorite place to shop for my quirky friend set. Inside youll find shelves upon shelves of handmade items: bicyclist-themed coasters, indie t-shirts for babies, remade vintage jewelry, and more. The selection of screen prints, drawings and art is especially impressive; I recommend taking a look at poster-sized infographics like The Illustrious Omnibus of Superpowers #2 from from Pop Chart Lab in Brooklyn, NYC. Its super informative. For those of you looking for locally made treasures, Magpie also has several bell jar terrariums made by a staff member. I purchased one myself this summer. Happy to report its beautiful — and thriving!
