"Absolutely great service from John, he was incredibly helpful at every point of the interaction despite my faffing as a customer. The store also has a fantastic selection and I would highly recommend it to anybody that enjoys arts and crafts. I’ll definitely be spending more money in there"

"Loved checking out new building and stock. Great to browse around and found some gorgeous 1m fabric pieces. Did feel for a Saturday an extra couple staff members could have been beneficial to assist on the floor with trying to find things than waiting for the counter staff person to finish serving others. Will be back for sure."

"Incredible store with arts, craft, sewing and more across 3 floors. Love their new location! A huge range of product and a lovely warm environment on a rainy day. Great parking options and surprisingly busy on opening at 10am on a Sunday! Will be back"

"Love their new premise, 3 floors of crafting goodness from cross stitch, embroidery, knitting, crochet, quilting, papercraft and art. So many! Friend and helpful staff too."

"I am a beginner knitter, after 3 hats and two tea cozies, found my next project (a pretty good special)at the Ribbon Rose website. It was at the point of shipping, I found out the shop on the Great South Road is a 8-minute drive from my house. Frankly, i was wowed by the shop, a dream home for handy and seemingly creative people. It covers everything I need and more. A 15-minute pickup chore became an hour of lingering. You should check it out, they carry comprehensive range, from what I can see, quality stuff too, I quickly landed a couple more projects to take on board. Truly amazing!"
