Fishs Eddy

Union Square, Flatiron District & Gramercy


High-quality and irreverent design has made Fishs Eddy a staple in the homes of hip New Yorkers for years. Its store is a veritable landslide of mugs, plates, dish towels, carafes and anything else that belongs in a cupboard. Styles range from tasteful color blocking to delightfully outrageous patterns. The 'Brooklynese' line (Cawfee, Shuguh, Sawlt etc) makes for great souvenirs.

If you live in the US you don't have to worry about hauling your new flatware home: staff can arrange affordable shipping for you.
