Mint

Hands down my favorite store in not just Marin, but the whole Bay Area! Something so magical about this place. The owners and employees obviously really care about the store.
I was lucky to meet the owner, who worked for a decade in NYC as a stylist (so that’s where the amazing taste comes from!). Everything is thoughtfully curated and worth every penny. I come here for all my gifts and my friends and family are never disappointed as the products here really stand out from chain stores.
A lot of the stores in Marin are a bit boring and mainstream for my taste, but Mint’s products are unique and classic at the same time. Too bad they don’t have a second location in the city, but its a great pit stop on the way out to all the nature in Marin.

Absolutely charming store. I can’t put my finger on the vibe, except that there’s a real lightheartedness. Whimsy. I think it’s the mix of women’s stuff and kids stuff! Cecilia, who helped me today, couldn’t have been more nice and helpful. A well-​curated selection of American brands, with a great sale rack. Lots of beautiful scarves, reasonably priced jewelry, greeting cards, earthy bath salts, sequined totes… I could go on and on… a real beaut. Glad I stumbled in.

A unique and great women’s clothing shop that also has wonderful kids clothing and toys and miscellaneous neat curated gifts. The owners are wonderful. I can always find something for my wife here. Not to be missed!

Wish I could have stayed all day. Definitely a happy place with lots of great things I’ve never found anywhere else. I picked up a handful of Japanese socks made out of the sheerest stuff (like monofilamint or something) as gifts. Found a really nice belt too and enjoyed the heck out of myself for a brief moment in time. Will make it a «must» the next time we travel to Marin.

Mint is my anti-​depressant. The owners, Sameer and Cecile, have become two of my most favourite people on the planet. Mint is a reflection of them — original, full of character, joyful, playful authentic, artistic. They really create community by virtue of who they are. It’s a truly a treasure! I never feel obligated to buy anything. I feel they’re always glad to see me. I do always want to buy because I love their stuff and I love supporting them!

This new store for downtown mill valley is a wonderful addition and welcome relief from the same-​old-​same-​old shopping experience that mill valley has to offer. It has a tasteful, charming, European feel. Cecile has a marvelous eye and has bought truly intriguing products for Mint. It is pricey, but in this case, you get what you pay for. These are quality items. Thank you, Mint, for arriving in my town!

I stumbled upon this artistic and delightful little store while walking back from downtown to the Library in Mill Valley. It was my second visit and the first time I didn’t take the time to really look around. It is truly like walking into an artistica boutique in Firenze Italia… The owner happens to be from Firenze. His wife handpicks and discovers each items. First time I have ever seen the delish Sea Salt Caramels made in Pasadena that I know and have bought many times when living in L.A. It is worth the detour from the typical downtown Mill Valley shops. I found a gem to buy gifts or wonderful woman’s clothing. Bravo ! P. S. The wrapping is wonderful too it’s all about these little details in shops that make me want to return again and again… SHOP LOCAL

Don’t miss this cute little store on the end! They’ve got some unique things from around the world. Includes home furnishings, kids clothing, toys, women’s clothing and accessories, and men’s accessories as well. Every item seems to be carefully hand picked by the owner and displayed with a purpose. Ask the shop owner and she’ll be happy to explain to you the details of where the item was imported from. Totally fits in with the rest of downtown Mill Valley!

Mint is a sweet and charming little shop and a perfect addition to downtown Mill Valley. They have unique speciality items that are handmade from around the world. From children’s clothes to handmade toys to candles and soaps, there is something for everyone at Mint. I fell in love with this teddy bear made from alpaca wool from Peru as well as a handsoap with coffee and mint. The owner of the shop is so sweet and she is so passionate about the products she sells. I look forward to my next visit to Mill Valley and will visit Mint again!

This is a charming shop downtown Mill Valley. It is the perfect addition to specialty shops located in the area. The selection of fine, mostly children’s products is unique. The playful learning toys are handmade of soft sided products. I like specialty pillows with an image of a childrens barn and a little cut out where the barn door would be located. Inside is a little pocket with a small animal. The rounded edged learning toys are brightly colored yet non-​toxic. The childrens cloths are made of soft cotton in comfortable, breathable designs or made of stretchy knits. They have a collection of rag-​sandles, made of colorful cotton fabric. I hear it’s all the rage in Japan. The counter features handmade candies made from felt fabric and by-​golly they look like real treats.
