Plain and simple, this was heaven for me as a stationery enthusiast! The options were so good and varied, pricing was reasonable, and it's great for buying gifts, too! (10/10 would visit again if I'm ever in Singapore again.)

Super rude lady at the store, Nur Shirah. She seemed like a person not wanting to work. She had an attitude problem when my wife asked her if she could pay by PayWave. She explained in an impatient way that it was down. Please remove her from the store. I would never go back if she's there.

This is the best place for buying gifts and souvenirs. And also for people who like Ghibli Studio, cute things, and cute stationery!

I've bought stuff in the shop a few times. Until today, I didn't realize they don't allow photos in the shop, even if you're just taking pictures of your friends. It's a stationery shop, not a museum or a customs office. They're certainly "generous" when it comes to putting prices on the tags—the stuff is not cheap. I definitely won't go again.

I went into the shop on 25 Feb 2025 at about 7.50pm. I wanted to do some printing. So I approached the counter and politely asked the **Malay Lady Wearing Specs and Tudung**, “Can I do some printing?” She rudely replied NO! What kind of customer service is this? At least she should have replied, "Sorry, we do not have printing services." It's a terrible experience being in the shop. Thanks NBC Stationery and Gift - Bugis Junction for providing such services.

I had a disappointing experience at this stationery store due to the extremely poor attitude of one of the staff members. An auntie was telling customers not to draw while they were simply testing the pens, which is the whole point of having testers available. Her tone was unwelcoming, and her behaviour made the entire shopping experience uncomfortable. In retail, especially in a stationery store, basic courtesy and a welcoming attitude should be the minimum. I won’t be returning.

Here's the lightly edited review:
"I can always count on them for all my needs: gifts, cards for all occasions, stationery, and more. The store is really well-stocked with cards of unique designs, materials, and shapes. The counter staff is also extremely patient and helpful in recommending items to suit my needs. The store is conveniently located within Bugis Junction. Thank you, team!"

A rude retail staff member (an older lady) insisted we take the unwrapped plushies from their back stock and refused to let us take the wrapped display ones. We weren't aware that they had stock in the back, and that the display pieces were purely for display. When asked if we could choose from the stock, she grumpily replied, “all the same. aiya choose what choose, all same.” However, the plushies clearly looked different. Why the rude attitude?
She ended up giving us 2/3 of the display pieces we originally chose. So what's so hard about letting us choose our pieces, and if the display pieces can be sold to us in the end, why couldn't we take those?

A friend of mine recommended me to this boutique, and it is becoming one of my favorite clothing boutiques. The staff are friendly and definitely know how to make you buy a lot of clothes 🤣🤣🤣
The style and the fabric are good. The prices are also reasonable.

Very good service and friendly staff. One of the staff recommended very comfortable pants, and I bought one of each color! They always recommend good stuff to customers.

Tourists beware: this store scams its shoppers. My mother shopped here and was supposed to receive $25 change. She received a $2 and $5 bill folded together, unaware that Singapore doesn't have a $20 bill. The way the bills are folded made us think this is a common and deliberate occurrence by the storekeepers.

One of the busiest women's clothing shops in Bugis Junction. It sells clothing from casual to work clothes.

They have a lot of things to choose from, and the customer service is friendly. Happy shopping here.

I used to think Iora was for aunties to shop at. But surprisingly, their clothes have been rather simple and not too old-fashioned in recent years. They are now one of my favorite places to shop, especially for work dresses.
I came on Saturday afternoon, and this outlet was so crowded and busy. But the staff were very cheerful and friendly. And it was every single staff member. They were helping everyone and tried their best to attend to all customers. It was the first time I've seen such attentive shop staff. Thank you!!
