Tucked away on Tacket Street, Ipswich, Miss Quirky Kicks is one of those places that immediately sparks curiosity and begs investigation.
It’s also the kind of shop you drift into… then realise you’ve somehow been in there for hours.
Part shop, part creative space, part spiritual hideaway, it’s a bit of a definition, a shop with a kick and a quirky after bite.
Inside, you’ll find a carefully layered mix of crystals, tarot and spiritual tools, handmade jewellery from independent makers, books, incense, offbeat gifts, and a selection of clothing and lifestyle pieces.
Over time, the shop has grown well beyond retail. There’s now a small café element, creative collaborations, and even an in-house piercing studio—turning it into a genuinely multi-use space rather than somewhere you simply pass through.
The shop reflects a strong sense of expressionism, individuality, and giving people the freedom to explore both.
At the centre of it all is Lawra Stubbs, who has built Miss Quirky Kicks into something that is genuinely personal.
The shop feels less like a business, and more like an extension of a community.
Places like this are quietly redefining what the high street can be. They’re not just shops -they’re creative outlets, spaces for self-expression, and somewhere people can feel a little more like themselves.
And in a town like Ipswich, that kind of personality matters.
