Visit Queen Eileen's and Have a Blast in Encinitas, California

Queen Eileen's in downtown Encinitas CaliforniaNeed a special fun gift for the holidays? Heading to a party and want to take along something for your hosts? Want to show clients or employees how much you care by sharing a gift basket over the holidays?

Queen Eileen's IS the place in Encinitas to visit. Here's why.

GIFT BASKETS - They make them right there (yep, I was there to grab a few pics and chat with Queenie [Eileen] herself in the midst of creating - see the show) and there are many choices for all occasions. They ARE impressive and beautiful!

The holidays are especially popular for these baskets -  choose one of their pre-arranged baskets or, better yet, customize your own. From $25 and up. Locals can bring in their own special wine to include or Queenie will select for you. Order on line from anywhere in the country but please feel free to call and personalize the transaction to get just what you want. You may need to order by December 12 for long distance delivery but check with the store. The website will give you a good idea of the huge selection of options.

Outside Queen Eileen's in downtown Encinitas CaliforniaTHE STORE ITSELF - hopefully the pictures and the tour below will give you some idea of all the fun stuff you can find here, some of it a bit racy and not for the kiddies, but what an array of gift options - frig magnets, gift cards, PJs, Tees, martini glasses and other fun and artistic glassware, cards for all occasions, scarves, ornaments, napkins, spa items, novelty and gag gifts, and the list goes on and on. The beach theme is common here, with plenty of humor. Best way to get an idea is to stop in - the place will make you smile and laugh - or visit her Queen Eileens website.

WANT SOME BLING? Queenie stocks gobs of great jewelry (necklaces, earrings, rings) from Bali - she makes a couple of buying trips per year to keep the inventory fresh and interesting (I know, my wife has been there, and there).

Artsy holiday glassware at Queen Eileen's in EncinitasQUEEN EILEEN'S MARTINIS ON FRIDAYS - what a fun activity for the holidays! Held on Fridays from now until Christmas, from 5 - 7 PM. Stop by for free martinis and gourmet snacks.

  • Come yourself or bring 1 friend and you both get 10% off anything in the store
  • 2 or more friends and you get 20% off.

Pretty good deal along with a freebie martini! What a terrific way to end the work week, or start the weekend.

The staff is friendly and helpful and you can't help but have a good time doing your shopping here.

Queen Eileen's is located in the heart of downtown Encinitas (just a short distance down the road from Carlsbad) on the west side of the coast road at 548 S. Coast Highway 101. (760) 436-4845 or (800) 233-4386

They have so much cool stuff. And I love the idea of customizing your own basket. We don't have anything like that around here. Are you attempting to monoplize the featured posts in the Things to Do/Places to Visit group? I'm gonna have to feature this one too. You're definitely raising the bar. Yay! =D

George - they really do a wonderful job on their baskets and they are all made there from scratch.

Bryant - Encinitas is kinda fun anyway, and this place takes it to another level. Have a great holiday season.

Amber - you are welcome, and thanks for stopping by. If you make it out here please let me know.

LIsa - the pics do NOT do it justice. There is no way to capture it all. Luv rasing the bar, Please let me know if ever something is posted that is not suitable. Sometimes I feel like a travel guide. LOL

Jeff, I love places like this!  It looks like it belongs in Takoma Park, a local DC neighborhood with a log of aging hippies who run totally fabulous shops.  Sounds like Queenie is a wonderful character!

Patricia - yes, I remember Tacoma Park from when I lie in College Park years ago. And yes, she is. I ain't revealling personal stuff but... she hs great fun and has a marvelous sense of humor, which shows in the store's inventory.
