Blackstone's of Beacon Hill

"Judgmental and rude staff. You will be judged from the moment you walk in the door. You could have a millions of dollars to spend, but if you don’t “look the part” then it won’t matter. Your greeting and the service provided to you will depend on how you look. I have tried to visit this store multiple times to give it a chance but each time I’m served with nasty looks directed my way, snarky comments, and just and overall unwelcoming feeling directed from staff. The items in the store are cute and can all be found else where, some are from larger companies and other smaller companies. I would much rather support those companies directly and likely receive a better service where my business feels welcomed and where my worth isn’t judged based on appearance. When I came online to look to see if others had the same experience, I was shocked to see none on Google. But at last I found others who had similar issues. Peep yelp for more reviews."

"So glad I found this place. I came here to buy a Japanese knife. They have many to choose from. The staff are friendly and helpful. Shop local!"

"The owners of this shop are a lovely married couple that are extremely knowledgeable about their products. They have a great selection of knives and other household items. We've bought knives, dinnerware sets, and kitchen gadgets here, all of which were great quality. They've also got a good rewards program."

"A really cool and sweet shop in Beacon Hill! Has a very home cozy vibe and staff are lovely and caring. Located right next to the Paramount if you wanted to stop by before or after. They have plenty of house necessities in case of an emergency and you happen to live by. Also a bunch of tourist items as well!"

"WOW! Amazing store and staff. I went in looking for a my first everyday use chefs knife already knowing a little bit about the knife world. Everyone there, especially Tanisha did an amazing job of showing me different options in various styles, prices etc. She was just a huge wealth of information, I was expecting to just try a few knives but left with 10x the knowledge before and a much better idea of what I wanted. Tanisha's love for knifes definitely shows. They also offer knife sharpening classes(ask via phone/in person) which I am definitely taking advantage of once I get my knife. Although I did not shop for other items, they had wide array of various other kitchen items plus an extensive online store."
