Boutique Erotica is an adult boutique on Bunkum Road in Washington Park, Illinois, just across the river from St. Louis. It stocks lingerie, apparel, fetish gear, novelties, toys and media from the main brands, and its staff, whom it calls Boutique Erotica Consultants, are there to advise customers in what the store describes as a safe, fun and judgement-free setting.

The store keeps late hours: it opens at 10 am every day and stays open until midnight on Sundays and Mondays, until 2 am from Tuesday to Thursday and until 4 am on Fridays and Saturdays. Visitors must be 18 or over with valid ID.
