“If buying a present for someone, be sure not to skip the complimentary gift wrapping. They're so speedy and do an amazing job -- they'll even use rubber stamps to fill out a cute little gift tag for you!”
“This place is gem! Nestled off Hwy 1, The Magic Toybox is my favorite toy store on the peninsula. Friendly and helpful staff plus the selection is fantastic! Stop by, you won't be disappointed.”
“100% recommend visiting if you are looking into car seats and strollers.
Daisy is an expert at car seats and was able to explain the characteristics of each one and the differences between them to a pair of first-time expectant parents that were still dizzy from looking at all the choices online. Daisy also had fabric swatches for color/material options and helped us do a test fitting of the floor model into our car before making our choice.
Mika helped us with strollers and definitely helped us avoid making a wrong pick. She started out by asking a set of questions to figure out what style of stroller worked best for our lifestyle (totally different to what we thought we wanted when walking in) and then had us test out strollers in their demo area until we found one that made sense to us.
Pro-tip: They will do private appointments outside of store hours so call beforehand if you'd like dedicated help. We walked in on a Saturday afternoon and they were able to help us while juggling other customers but your mileage may vary.”
“I pick up a new kit every time I walk in here! Always something new, his stock is always rotating. I don't think I've seen the same kit on his shelves twice. Everything from entry grade to perfect grade unleashed, and reasonable prices (especially with the additional 25% off). Not just Gunpla, but also kits from Evangelion, One Piece, DBZ, Star Wars, and others. Keep in mind, it is primarily a Gunpla store if you're looking for anything else. The staff also has given me great advice on my builds, as well!”
“BEST local game store ever! Love everything about the store, the people and the cool stuff!?and you gotta love Sonya! She pays very detailed attentions to all her customers’ opinions, questions, lots of conversations on latest and popularity of various games ? That’s what makes her and her store special ????? Because she cares about her community and people.
I love going there with my husband for selective ? Magic the Gathering pre-releases ? It’s really chill there for me, and I feel safe and home around a diversity of intellectual people that know how to play games so well and fun ? Trust me, you’ll love this place❣️”
“My first time here. They have a great selection. I do think the mega evolution 6 pack booster for over 70 bucks was a bit scalpy but it is what it is. I ended up pulling a mega Gardevoir ex which made things better haha”
“Can’t talk about how much I love this store enough. This is the perfect spot for kids gifts/toys, and they even have games for adults. It is also nostalgic because they have some games that existed when I was a kid! Anyone remember Pick Up Sticks??? Best part, they gift wrap for free, all year long! You’ll find things for all ages here. Highly recommend this store.”
“Fantastic customer service, would highly recommend supporting this business! Thank you for making sure my daughter's birthday will be magical with the perfect gift!”

“Ace hardware is my go to hardware store before Home Depot and Lowe's for certain items but for bigger jobs like sheet rock or lumber building materials I'll go to Home Depot but some of the bigger Ace Hardware stores carry everything I would need. I would recommend Ace hardware.”

“The Katachi, store is like being in Japan shopping; it really gives you that kind of feeling, the service by the two kind and professional guys who helped me; Hendson Hwang and Sean Campos, they were not only nice but very knowledgeable, so next time when you are in San Francisco go to Japan Town and stop by Katachi, the store is awesome.”
“I had never went to Build A Bear before and I just so happened to be in San Francisco during the FIFA event. I strolled into Build A Bear despite seeing the poor reviews before I entered and I had low hopes. However, when I walked in, we were greeted by the lovely employees at the front. They guided us on how to build the bears! I wanted to appreciate Eziyah and Kimmy for their work on my grandchildren’s bears and making them feel special! After the amazing experience Build A Bear gave us, my family and I walked out satisfied and happy! Even with the reviews about the employees, it was hard for me to believe them after my experience! Thank you so much!”

“A very small store for the serious anime- Japanese manga type figurines/ models and other collectables and some lower cost stuff for kids/ collectors on a budget.It's one of the few I know in the general bayarea that specializes in the trade and one the few that offer some of the original Japanese heroes collectable stuffing around SF”

“The proprietor is an absolute gem! We popped in impulsively and wound up with a great conversation, tons of fascinating toy + pop culture history trivia, AND a couple truly wonderful gifts for family. Thank you for the Star Wars action figures and Alfa Romeo collectible!”
“I bought 2 fabulous outfits for my grandson & granddaughter today. I thought the store had a nice selection of high-quality items, and found the staff was helpful without hovering, allowing us to wander. We will be back.”
“One of the few places I’ve been to that sells the Monster Hunter Figure Builder series. Has a good collection of figures, plushes and other anime/game related merchandise.”

“This store is spectacular with so many wonderful, loving and ambience feelings shopping in here. I am an adult without children but I love the little one in me. Thank you so much for sparkles.”
“Hands down my new favorite game store!
I’m totally new to Magic: The Gathering, and Paxton was awesome. He took the time to walk me through how the game works, the different mechanics and formats, and how to get started. He even hooked me and my wife up with Spider-Man welcome decks and showed me how to play with them, super chill and kind.
I also grabbed two of my favorite Lorcana character cards (Mufasa and Bagheera). They’ve got a huge selection of single cards (which is rare in SF), plus tons of comics, collectibles, and a super clean, spacious setup for games and events.
I’m a big Final Fantasy XVI fan too, and when I casually (just in passing) mentioned I’d been hunting for a foil Ifrit card from Hidden Legends, Paxton just calmly walked over to some card drawers, and actually found one for me right there on the spot - I couldn’t believe it! I picked up a sweet hidden legends booster pack too (which I could not find anywhere else in city).
Just moved to the Bay in April, and Anime Imports is 100% a spot I’ll be coming back to and frequenting lot. Big thanks to Paxton for being so friendly and knowledgeable.”

“The Exploratorium Store is the place to get all kinds of generic science-related gifts. Mainly stuff for kids, and some of their inventory you can likely find elsewhere online. A lot of the products are only vaguely related to the Exploratorium and what is displayed in it, there wasn't much Exploratorium branded merch or memorabilia outside of a few shirts and buttons. Would love to see more, honestly. The prices can be high, I remember seeing a pin that was not much bigger than a thumbtack going for $13, but it's an expensive museum so it makes sense that their gift shop is also expensive. Other than that, it's fine quality. My little brother really liked the knee-doh ball he got here. Overall, 4/5.”
“they have really nice stuff and you can see it’s very high end materials and finish. We bought two special edition rabbit dolls to put on our travel bag and pulled out a mystery limited edition black bunny!! They also have so many original labubu so if you have a Time Machine to a year ago you’d be a trillionaire😂”
“Hidden gem for board gamers. They have a great stash of well selected board games. Yes it’s basically piled high with stuff and it’s not the most comfortable shopping experience but that’s part of the charm.”

“A wide variety of toys, clothes, and stuffed animals. Love fiddlesticks! Recently had a great experience where two ladies by the names of Naya and Samantha helped me pick out a gift for my niece.”
“Adorable quaint shop in the haight district STACKED with blind boxes of Sonny angels, smiskis and etc!! It feels a bit unreal stepping in here, whole interior filled with mini boxes. The interior is very bright, with white walls and light/pastel colors everywhere, feels like being flashed in the eyes. The interior is quite tiny, and the staff are friendly and helpful. It is cheaper than most other retailers!! The smiski hipper I got was 15.50, wbile most other places sell it for 20+, and it's legit! Edit: I also bought some smiski straps ($10) and some regular series, about 13.5-14.5. I would DEFINITELY check this place out for authentic figurines!”
“My wife and I visited this store to pickup items for a 1st birthday. The lady working (I believe it was the manager/owner) was very helpful and we ended up buying a cute outfit along with a couple of toys. They even gift-wrapped it for us! Thank you!”
“Great place to pick up presents, for both children and adults! The owner is so friendly and helpful, and they always wrap your gifts for free! I love shopping here”
“The Pirate Supply Store is a little smaller than I remember, but I could be confusing it with another store. It is still jam-packed with pirate themed decor and souvenirs for sale. I don’t think there was an inch of that store that was empty. Many cheap and handmade trinkets and accessories to take home, but I think I saw some clothing too? Plus some customizable things like a mini treasure chest that you can fill with whatever you’d like. Overall, 4/5.”

“These guys have such a great vibe, I don't think I've ever felt more welcome in a store in my life, they were cracking a few jokes on the system being down and being funny while actually making a lot of effort to try and help me.
Thank you! You're all awesome!”
