Yes it does feel out of date but it has what I need. It’s really nice to have a stationary shop so close to our home. I can pop in here and buy pens, envelopes, bubble wrap or cards. Everyone who has worked here has been incredibly nice and inviting.

This place feels just ever so slightly out of date. In a market which is increasingly dominated by cutesy, funky card/gift shops(papyrus and the like) places like this just feel at little stale and a little too practical in comparison. Will you find cards here? Yes, of course you will its a card shop. But are they any good? wellllllllll, eh, there ok i suppose. Look at it this way, if your out and about in search of a card for someone who likes traditional cards(old person i would say) then this may well be the joint for you. If however your in search of something a little more contemporary then stay clear of grannies little shop of cards.

Kind Regards is an old fashioned card shop which I’m sure will fulfill almost all of your stationary needs! They have a really large selection of cards, including modern as well as traditional styles. You’ll probably find a card for just about every occasion — from new home to new baby to deepest sympathies. Unlike some of the other gift shops along Hyndland Road, they’re also very competitively priced(i.e. cheap) so picking out a couple of cards will get you change from a fiver. In addition to the card selection, I was very pleasantly surprised to find a whole lot of stationary.(What can I say? I’m Queen of the pencil case). Along with pens, pencils and holepunches of every description, I also came across envelopes, jiffy bags and a lovely selection of writing sets! There are also notelets a plenty here — so if you are a lover of old fashioned correspondence I suggest you have a bit of a look… The owner was perfectly nice if a little abrupt — but she answered my questions helpfully and pointed me in the direction of what I was looking for.

A card and gift shop that I peered into when browsing for a friend’s birthday, and was a bit disappointed. It was a bit stuffy, with trinkets and flowery cards a plenty. Not really a suitable place to pick up a good-humoured card for my friend, unless I scribbled on them myself, but I’m sure I’ll go back when my Grandma hits her next birthday.
