Tropical Trends

This is a very eclectic shop filled with all sorts of interesting items to look at: jewelry, cards, clothing, incense, gems and stones, blankets, and more. There is also a nice small kid section with some fun things to explore. It seems like every time we turned around, there were more items to look at! The staff was friendly- we were greeted upon entry and thanked warmly at check out. This is a great option to look for some unique gifts. There is plentiful parking in the shopping center lot, and it's very easy to walk to if you're already shopping or watching a movie at the nearby theatre.

Cool little shop with loads of interesting funky items. Items you wouldn't find anywhere else. Girl working there-I think her name was Liz was so nice and helpful.

I love this store. They have the coolest stuff, the staff is super nice, the store is clean and it is such a positive vibe!

I absolutely love the energy of this entire location. I find something different every time I come in. Definitely all worth the money.

I fell in love with Tropical Trends the moment I walked in. You will instantly be welcomed into a world of Caribbean colored metal, wall lizards, Mexican tapestry's, incense of every scent, hand made jewelery from India or Brazil or some random tribe in Africa. Everything is handmade and everything is purchased directly from the artist. There is no middle man, so the village of origin receives every penny.I can't walk into the store without leaving with something special and unique. It's perfect for gifts or for something inspirational for yourself or your home.

Epic place for spiritual zen! The place is a total retreat from the crazy. A must stop for any traveler looking for some goodies.

They have a table of kid's toys and one of the toys is the squeezable jelly balls inside mesh. They are meant to be squeezed. My 10 year old has bought several of them here in the past and today we went in while waiting for our movie to start next door, she squeezed one once and it exploded all over the place. I promptly got an employee letting them know what happened and that it was all over and on my daughter and she got snarky and said "she squeezed it too hard" and had a disgusted angry look on her face. I asked for a paper towel and happily would have cleaned it up but she then said "next time you come in here I'd appreciate it if you don't touch those toys since you broke one all over my merchandise and made a mess". I told her I'm sorry that my daughter touched a toy that is meant to be squeezed but don't appreciate the attitude about it. She said it's never happened before and that next time she would appreciate if we don't touch them. I said there won't be a next time. It's a shame because it's a cute store but this samelady has been rude to me before. I don't know if she's the owner or the manager or just an employee but she's a miserable person who shouldn't be running a store with hands on stuff if she doesn't expect accidents to happen. Honestly, last time we were there one of those same toys was leaking all over the container before my daughter even picked it up and we purchased other ones and she tried to blame us for the other one being messed up that she hadn't broken. Never going back in this store. If my daughter was the type of kid who ruined her toys or was disrespectful in a store then I wouldn't be in the store or let her touch things, these balls commonly do this..read reviews online. I did not appreciate the way she acted and if she wasn't so rude and condescending I would have offered to pay for the CLEARANCE item she was so angry about.

I love this store! Every time I come into Columbus this store is my first stop! I love the variety of items that they have. The staff is so helpful and friendly.

This place is so cute !! Amazing vibes! Great place for finding unique gifts! Staff is always super helpful and kind. A great little hippie store with a good selection of clothing and crystals. Definitely worth checking out! They also sell really good chapstick by the counter that is locally made by groovy lips.

Love everything about this place! I always find the perfect gift for friends and myself every time I visit. The staff is always super friendly to chat with and educated on different items throughout the store. Will always recommend to a friend! :)
