China Fair 70 Needham Street, Newton, MA 02461

"China Fair is a field trip to find everything you didn't realize you were missing in your kitchen but realize while there you should have had all along. Absolutely worth the visit and each one will probably consume more time than you planned on spending. We now have dinnerware that properly fits the new dishwasher, and I finally have a cast iron pan that makes my mother believe I actually know what I'm doing in the kitchen..."

"Absolutely the best store to get party cookware for thanksgiving. Also pretty great section just for your kitchen in general"

"Everything I need for my kitchen and highly knowledgeable employees. Went in the other day for something and walked out with a product that was better for half the price. Lots of cool, high quality stuff in a fun, old school shopping adventure. Highly recommended. Last trip I got my knives sharpened while I shopped. Note: leave your caffeinated preschooler at home."

"There's a diverse selection of kitchenware and the prices are reasonable (though higher than you might find at a large chain due to the 'mom and pop' nature of the store). The diversity can often lead to gaps in any given area. The store has a small amount of a lot of things but only has any real selection for a few kinds of items. The staff is often knowledgable and generally friendly, however usually there is one employee who will follow you around the store just staring at you from a distance, making for quite an unpleasant shopping experience."

"This store provides restaurant quality kitchen and dining-wares to both restaurants and the average home buyer for reasonable prices. The atmosphere is very much of a warehouse-type place with fragile items packed in every direction. Due to this fact, it isn't really an ideal place to bring small children, or very clumsy adults."
