You can spend a lot of time here looking at all the odds and ends. There's something new each time. They have a lot of cute little pastry molds and interesting bakeware. I'm always surprised to find things that I never knew existed (like a tool to hull strawberries). Also don't miss the basement for lots of open stock glass bowls, ceramics, and random things. In addition to cookware and dishes, they always seem to have a large selection of dried herbs and Trappist jams.

Great prices and amazing selection of high quality goods - skip a trip to T*rget and instead support this local store. I was very pleased with the range of goods, which includes wrapping paper, disposable partyware, and fruit preserves alongside standard kitchen tools. There is also a lot of Asian cooking tools and dishes too.

Best place that I know of to shop for kitchen tools in the Boston area. It's happened a number of times over the years that I found the thing I was looking for here. Even just wandering their aisles and slowly browsing their well-stocked shelves is a treat that may lead you to find a few things you didn't know you needed. It's quite impressive too that they fit so much good stuff in there, because even though it's huge in terms of a Cambridge storefront, it's a fraction of the size of some suburban big box store. Staff will point you in the right direction when you need help finding something. Prices are good, too.

If you need any kitchen related, non-appliance item you have to get it here. They have so much dish ware and bakeware all at reasonable prices. It’s great for things you wouldn’t really find in normal stock at other stores, like oversized baking sheets,...Read More
If you need any kitchen related, non-appliance item you have to get it here. They have so much dish ware and bakeware all at reasonable prices. It’s great for things you wouldn’t really find in normal stock at other stores, like oversized baking sheets, a variety or cast iron, or various tiny dishes for condiments and such. It is also really fun to walk through the aisles and discover products you didn’t know you needed. A great store in a great location.

Love this place. Dishes, glasses, house wares, utensils, party supplies... The list goes on. One of my personal favorites to get there is unique bowls of all different sizes from different countries that are painted in bright colors.

Everyone in our neighborhood has been buying all their cooking and serving stuff from this place for years at the Newton location. Excellent quality at terrific prices, and kind and knowledgeable staff that is very helpful. From every kitchen gadget you can imagine to incredible knives, to wonderful dinnerware at reasonable prices, all kinds of essentials. This place is a family tradition...ours AND theirs...and every visit is rewarded with something useful and highly affordable. The old store in Cambridge was burned out, but now you folks are lucky, China Fair is back in town!

In this day and age it is lovely to find a mom-and- pop store--and a giant one at that--that sells fairly priced items for every day use. Not just China, but kitchen tools, kitchen essentials, cutting boards, coffee machines, glassware, …

It's an eclectic store. Great for inexpensive glassware and china, kitchen tools, plastic storage, and for paper goods and plasticware for parties. May it live forever! Not open on Sundays most of the year.
