"I LOVE TO BUY THINGS AT GROUP W BENCH"

"I love this place. There is something for everyone! Candles, incense, mugs, jewelry, hats, clothing, Indian print bedspreads, figures of Buddha and Ganesh, toys, pipes, vases, and lots more! The young people who work there are knowledgeable, friendly, and helpful. A happy haven for an older hippie!"

"I have loved this shop for decades. Sadly they discourage photography inside or I'd show it off more. However, the staff is helpful and kind, the walls and shelves are absolutely loaded with cool (hippie-ish) stuff. Plastic finger puppets, incense and accessories, stones, gems, ornaments, candles, clothing, tie dye, hats, postcards, toys, statues, stickers. For a tiny shop they have a lot to choose from. I typically volunteer my bag/purse at the door because I'm afraid I'll bump into something, they seem to appreciate it as well. Go here! ($10 credit card minimum isn't hard to reach)"

"Every time we go to Group W Bench it is a great vibe experience. Too many trinkets for one visit to comprehend. Owner is awesome. Staff is always on point and super cool. Many thanks from New Hampshire."
