I shop ALOT in New York and this is, by far, my favorite 'store' in New York. I use store in quotations because it is more a large number of smaller boutiques. It has new up and coming designers and jeweIers. Their service is impeccable. I could go on and on but you need to make this a stop and... More

For hard to find fragrances, fun atmosphere and old NY charm this lesser known icon is number 1.

There's something for every shopper there! And their sales are fab! Top quality, latest style trends, great selection. And within easy walking distance of the Salisbury.

You can actually buy something here and not feel like you are breaking your budget. It is pricey, but they treat everyone the same. SA's were very polite and the mood was very upbeat there.

I was told by a couple girlfriends that on my trip with my 16 year old daughter that I must go to Henri Bendel. Ok, we checked that box. it was a pretty store with several floors of pretty merchandise, but the prices were SO HIGH!!! I'm not an overly cheap person, but my 16 year old found a small... More

Holy Cow!! I Love Henri Bendel in NYC!!! This is my favorite boutique in NYC! They have unique rings, necklaces, earrings and bracelets. They carry a huge line of the signature Henri Bendel name in jewelry, handbags and other small items. They have a nice handbag section and make-up counter. Upstairs they will usually showcase new designers in the jewelry... More

The cosmetics department is unreal as is the jewelry and the atmosphere is pure NYC!! I would say everyone should see this place even if just once but once you are... More

Visited H. Bendel's for the first time last year and I lost my mind! I stayed in that store for four hours!! Going back to NYC in a few weeks and I'm heading straight to H. Bendel's! My "new home away from home!"

I LOVE this spot! I take annual trips to NYC and therefore annual trips to Bendels to stock up on HB signature items and skincare from a line I have only found there. I only visit once a year, twice at most, and yet the sales associates remember me by name! It's customer service at it's finest. If you haven't... More

Well, I suppose because when I walked in I wasn't dripping in designer labels, may be the reason not a single sales person acknowledged me or assisted me in any manner. It wasn't, of course, until I purchased a $700 handbag, and a pair of $280 sunglasses, that they decided to give me a little attention. I find it odd... More
