Siesta Crafts

A bit like the old curiosity shop and it smells really nice because of the josticks. I buy my soaps here hemp, which are gorgeous.

This our kids favourite shop in Canterbury. A treasure trove of magical gem stones, artefacts and rainbow fabric. It’s always a pleasure to come into the store but this evening was extra special. Our little boy had his eye on a piece of amethyst and we promised we’d go to the store to buy it but when we finally got round to Siesta we’d missed closing time. The staff were just leaving and kindly reopened just so he could run upstairs and get the stone. Huge thanks to all of you for your patience - you made Curtis very happy!!

I would put 0 if it was an option but unfortunately I am forced against my free will to dignify this "shop" as a one star experience, to begin with the shop was disgustingly overpriced, although I mirracly was able to remain calm for the sake of my friends, family and fellow shoppers who were so desperate to purchase one of their mediocre dresses, this operatunity was violently ripped from under our feet by a deplorable heart wrenching comment made so heanusly by the top floor shop worker, to begin with this horrific encounter the woman in question had seemingly lost her shoes and had decided to brave the rest of her shift bare foot, being the kind hearted, humble, warm fella I am, I cracked a joke to my currently depressed sister about the the high setting the incense had been put too, to my horror, the bare footed woman turned round and said if you don't like it you can leave quote, immediately I whimpered back to my family as we made the group decision to exit the hostile premises at once, the end. Ps. Without purchase of said drastically underwhelming dress.

The best experience! This shop has just become our favourite! Lovely stuff, friendly staff and a beautiful, relaxed atmosphere.

ive been in the shop 5 times,, a few times with my daughter. all times have regrettably been served by the older man, ( grey hair ). his energy is not for customer service, rude, wierd, odd, no smiles, passive aggresive. i have a business and wouldnt let someone with this demeanour anywhere near my customers. went in today same same. wont be spending any more of our money there. thats about £250.00 in the past few visits. the younger women staff are lovely. i think the woman owner has the same energy as the man,wouldnt be surprised if they are married or in a dynamic. will use amazon from now on. Thankfully nag champa are 60% cheaper on amazon.

Nice little shop that's been here year's..Sell's a lot of hippie stuff,cute and quirky

An Aladins cave of the weird and wonderful. A must do shop for us every time we visit Canterbury and well worth a visit. Everyone here is friendly and helpful, a lovely place to visit.

This fantastic little shop is a treasure trove of unusual things from all over the world.

African drums, Mexican statues, South American styled clothing, windchimes, Incense sticks, all sorts of weird and wonderful items that you can't find anywhere else.

The shop has been there for years and I always visit it whenever I'm in Canterbury. Definitely worth a visit if you are in the area.
