Landis General Store551

While it's not exactly a 'general store' in the 19th century sense of the word, this Larchmont Village favorite comes pretty close.

The General Store has in fact divided into three separate shops in recent years, all still run by the same family:

Those in search of needles and thread, art supplies, picture frames, or office supplies need look no further than the original Landis General Store. The shop also carries plenty of toys, including stuffed animals and one of the best collections of sticker books around.

Next door, Landis at Home is the place to find greeting cards, gift wrap, and home accessories and gifts.

The well-established stationery side of the business has moved two doors down to Landis Gifts & Stationery. Here one finds a wonderful selection of stationery, photograph albums, and bound notebooks, along with an unbelievable selection of pens and writing implements. It's a good spot to find gifts for all kinds of people from teachers to grandparents.

The store also helps design, and then print, beautiful party invitations and birth or wedding announcements. Envelopes can be addressed by off-site calligraphers, who can also paint flowers on envelopes or award certificates.
