Messengers Gifts 15226 George Oneal Road, Baton Rouge, LA 70817

"Messengers is my go to when I need a quick gift and I love that they offer beautiful wrapping too! The staff is always friendly and helpful and the shop is a warm and lovely place to find unique items."

"I wanted to get a gift for my mother, and she would have insist that she wouldn't want it a gift so while we were looking around inside the shop with my mother, I picked out a stuffed crocodile and ask them if they could gift wrap it discreetly and make sure my mom didn't see it. They did so with a smile on their face, and they were extremely friendly and kind with the exchange. I paid them silently in before I walked out of the store I gave my mom alligator stuffed plush beautifully wrapped in Mardi gras wrapping paper in a gift bag which she adored. The service here is great. I couldn't recommend this shop highly enough. These are really good people to shop with."

"I shopped here often but won't be going back here. My mom, who has been a long time customer there, purchased $78 earrings that fell apart 2 weeks later. Messengers will not take them back. I love supporting small businesses such as this one, but if that is how they treat customers (especially my mom who has supported them for a while,) then I will definitely not shop here again."

"I was in recently looking for last-minute Christmas gifts. I went in and walked around the entire store without anyone greeting me. One of the employees (possibly owner/manager) was speaking on her cell phone the entire time I was in. She had it on speaker and was complaining about having to be at work. I get not wanting to be at work and complaining about customers, but maybe not complain where we can hear it. I left without buying anything and without any contact from the employee. I spent my money at a more friendly store the next day."

"I'm totally in love with this gift shop! Since they have been open I have bought gifts for just about every occasion and have found the perfect item. Unique and personal gifts that my friends and family truly loved. Christmas time was amazing because I found one of a kind gifts for all my favorite people! Of course I can't help but get a little something for myself every visit too!"
