Shopping in Eindhoven: these are the best shops
Fancy a good shopping session in Eindhoven? Then you've come to the right place. From vintage finds to beautiful designer pieces and from gift shops where you want everything to multi-brand stores with only beautiful things. Skip the big chains and discover the shops that are just that little bit different. Whether you come with a mission or just want to wander around: these are the places that will make you happy (and where you will probably never walk out empty-handed and if not, at least with a head full of inspiration).
BYLOTTE is located on perhaps our favorite street in Eindhoven: the Kleine Berg. Think: coffee shops, beautiful people and good shops and in the middle of all that you find this handsome multibrand store.
The store is large (350 m²!), but feels anything but impersonal. Warm, light, calm and with a clothing collection that is second to none. From extreme cashmere to Max Mara, Golden Goose, Wandler, Ganni and many more beautiful things. Everything carefully chosen and always just a little bit different than you already know.
And psst… you can drop your boyfriend, husband or brother off at Mensroom, a little further down the road. Also recommended, but more about that later.
Want to dream away in interior design? Then drop by Frontpaget Home on the Lucas Gasselstraat in Eindhoven. This shop, run by sisters Maud and Esther, is really 650 m² Huge, but it still feels warm and personal.
You will find everything there: from large furniture to the most beautiful cushions, artificial flowers, scented candles and other fine details. Everything selected with taste, and always just a little bit different. Whether you are looking for a eyecatcher for your new home, or just a gift for yourself, you will definitely leave here with inspiration (and perhaps a beautiful vase).
On Strijp-R, a bit hidden between the old factory buildings, you will find the shop and showroom of Piet Hein Eek and that is really something different than your standard home store. Think: furniture made of reclaimed wood, crazy shapes, art, lamps, prints, books... you actually don't know where to look (in a good way).
By the way, you don't necessarily have to go hunting for a design furniture of a few thousand euros, just walking around and getting inspired is already worth it. And while you're there: stay for lunch or dinner in the restaurant next door.
Mensroom is a great men's shop with original, contemporary brands that you won't find on every street corner. The shop is located in one of our favorite places in Eindhoven: the Kleine Berg.
Nice to drop in with your boyfriend, husband or son or just for yourself of course. And are you out together? Then one of you can effortlessly split off to By Lotte in the street, while the other shops. Afterwards, there are enough nice places in the area to flop down for a coffee, drink or cocktail. Because yes, a bit of after-party is also part of it, right?
Cosy, friendly and such a shop where you actually want everything. When you step inside, you don't know where to look: it is chock full of original gifts, from beautiful cookbooks and scented candles to interior design items and goodies. Things you thought you didn't need... until now.
Timeless, atmospheric and affordable, with something nice for everyone (including yourself, just saying). Gifts with a wink, always beautifully wrapped. Do you quickly suffer from choice stress? Good luck. But hey, better too much fun than too little, right?
Want to score designer pieces without breaking your bank balance? FRANKIE'S favorites is where you want to be. This beautiful store on Strijp-S is full of pre-loved pearls from brands such as Isabel Marant, Anine Bing, Golden Goose, Chloé and many more beautiful things, all “good as new” and sustainable.
Think: carefully selected brand clothing, bags, shoes and sunglasses for those who love style and slow fashion.
Vintage shopping without the musty smell or endless digging? Yes please. At Vintage Clothing At Strijp-S, owner Yvesse has already fished out the pearls for you. Think: colorful jackets, silk blouses and finds from Italy and France, all hand-selected.
The store is located right below the Leidingstraat, next to Coffeelab (see our favorite coffee spots in Eindhoven here). It is a party for everyone who loves clothing with character, quality and a good story.
Also cool: in addition to vintage, you can also score here reworked items like a corset top from an old red Levi's blouse. Unique, sustainable and totally contemporary.
This trendy and also fair shop can be found at Strijp-S. Are you looking for an original, but also conscious gift? Then you should be here. Good day is a nice concept store full of natural home accessories and gifts with a good story, from Brabantse vlies to handmade beautiful things from Nepal. Enough fun!
