Litchfield

An artfully curated assortment of timeless goods, laid out with visible care. Even though patrons will be likely too enraptured with examining the items to speak much, the staff are very helpful and make the shop even more of a delight to visit. Before relocating to the city, I would always set aside time for a lengthy browse at Litchfield. Even now, with the shop within easy reach, I find myself with the same sensation that I'm stepping into a sort of chapel dedicated to telling patrons stories of a more thoughtful way to select and interact with the familiar items that give our daily lives texture.

Beautiful boutique with carefully hand picked general goods. One of my favourite shops in Gastown. They carry great leather goods and anything to make your home a touch more intimate and cozy.

Such a nice park. Avoid the dirt road (30km) towards berry springs and take the paved section if you don't have a suitable car. I love how NT parks is putting the effort in at the parks. The nature is stunning and you can swim which is awesome. The main downside is that they removed all the bins and rarely provide potable water. Though they're happy to sell bottled water which seems like a big contradiction.

Very nice staff with knowledge of products. A younger woman helped us explore the entire shop, and helped find us incredible goods within our price budget. Will be back next time my partner and I are in Vancouver !

Litchfield is one of my favorite shops in Vancouver alongside Haven and Roden Gray. The service is friendly, the selection is awesome and I've never seen such an immaculate space. I want my home to look like their store!

If you want to find something unique, or original, this is the store. Jonathon has exquisite taste, and it is reflected in-store. A must visit when downtown!

A collection of cool stuff from Japan + North America. You'll find candles, monocle books, stationary, accessories, and some kitchenware. Very hipster-ish vibe.

Love this place! I find unique gifts here for all occasions and it's my favourite place to pick up Turkish towels💕

Great store in the heart of gastown. I was here to pick up a gift for the bf and I was running late and called the owner and he was kind enough to stay a few minutes after closing as I was stuck behind some fire trucks. Thank you! This store carries a wide range of house items which make great gift ideas for everyone. Great quality and good service.

I've decided to no longer shop here after being treated like I'm invisible. Every time I walk in I am never greated with a hello. There is always someone on the computer at the cash desk more fascinated by what is happening on it, and if you do say hello to one of he staff who work there, you're given a quick hello and not even asked if you're looking for anything -- nothing. This is a story re that is severely pretentious, knows it, and loves it. The only time anyone looks or smiles at you is when they notice you are going to buy a lot of things, then the woman who works there and the owner starts up the conversation with full smiles. It's very transparent, and leaves you not feeling important but feeling exploited for cash, only to live like look at what you bought and realize it's overpriced, easy to find the same brand and item online for 50% less than what you paid, and with better selection. This place hasn't changed its inventory since I first shopped here two years ago. All in all, there are plenty of other places like this that sell these products. My wife found a lot of stuff that they sell in the store at many big box stores. If you visit the store and worry that what you want to buy won't be there, it will. Most of the items are the same, outdated, and easy to find at an IKEA or Chapters, or a few blocks away in Chinatown.

Litchfield is quintessential Gastown for ya. Honestly one of my favourite boutiques. They house a variety of luxe and affordable goods ~ everything from home decor to stationary, cologne, pocket knives, scarves, they even carry The Ordinary (I bought the Ordinary here before Sephora started carrying it.) They have a very purposely displayed amount of products so you never feel overwhelmed by the selection (decision fatigue anyone??) Their shopping bags are nice and sturdy, it even ties at the top! Awesome place to get a non-generic gift!

It would be tempting for some to write Litchfield off as another version of the same Minimalist Temple boutiques in the neighbourhood, but they rise above the label. And I want to be clear that Minimalist Temples are totally great; what irks me is when I see no evidence of an effort toward distinction in their stock. We are maxed out on places peddling the same "urban ingenue-turned-explorer in the wilderness of Northern Oregon" stuff. Nope, they've got it dialled. There are some items you can/used to find elsewhere, but most are pretty unique to Litchfield and it's a paradise for gift finding. If you're haunted by the dead-end sentence, "I'd like to find a nice.....(don't even know what)," go here first. From personal items to household, if you're not afraid of spending an appropriate amount on what's high-quality, well-crafted and beautiful it's hard to walk out with empty hands, or at least some good options in mind. And if you'd entered with the intention of looking for someone else, it's common to exit with a personal wish list or worse, a new gift for yourself. Each shop person I've interacted with has been so kind and helpful. I visit to get Olo perfume for myself, and in my chat with the fellow at the counter about my favourite scent -- which no stockist in the city has, or would order -- he offered to order it in when I want to refill. On recommendation from a lady who was working on the day I stopped by in December, I picked up Grown Alchemist skin care (scrub and toner) along with a wallet for my husband. Skin care is a tricky purchase, but based on my description of skin type and needs she assured me it was a great product, and she uses it herself. It is amazing and worth every cent, and if I had a beauty blog or one of those product review YouTube channels I would rave about it constantly. So, hope this place won't be leaving us any time soon. It's niche, special, and I will never feel at a gifting loss so long as it's around.

Loved this little shop! Full of unique and interesting items. I picked up a marshmallow crossbow for my nephew for Christmas. Wish my family shopped here for me... :-)

Beautifully curated store with home decor items not usually found in other Vancouver stores. Love shopping here for Japanese essential oils for my diffuser. I usually don't enjoy being hounded by sales associates in the store but it's really quite the opposite here. You're virtually ignored, you need to bring the product to the cash to receive any kind of information about it and smiling seems forbidden. It's like those customers just get in the way of whatever it is that he is doing at the computer and you may as well be shopping at a self-checkout Amazon store. I'll still shop here as the products are special though don't come with high customer service expectations.

Extremely well curated selection of quality products. Great gift ideas for those who love design and travel.

Very beautiful shop.... but staff was on the phone the entire time (work related, perhaps?). Even when he got off the phone, he didn't bother to greet customers. Environment felt unfriendly. Purchased an item. No words exchanged during transaction. ..Haven't been back since.

I was recommended this place by a friend to get something that was Asian inspired but unique for my mom who has a lot of pieces in her home and statues. Selection was good. It sometimes can get crowded in terms of inventory vs. walking room but over all fun to look at things.

This is a great shop. I found Litchfield upon reading a recommendation in Monocle magazine. The shop has a well-curated selection of artisinal living goods. Simple, great design and quality. Seems like a lot of inspiration from Japan and local designers. There are other shops in gastown to check out but I found the items in here the most practical and unique at the same time.

The store was sparse and overpriced for so called quality items. the staff was awful to deal with and the one of the owners was snobby and full of himself.
