Toy Stores near Pacific Grove, CA

“My husband and I recently dropped in to this shop with low expectations. It is hard to find nice second hand children’s clothes. Wow were we blown away! They had a huge selection of both boys and girls items along with toys, movies and books. Their prices were unbelievable. $5 for sleep sacks that looked brand new and normally $30 alone. $ 6 for a pack of 12 bibs that were in perfect condition. $1 for a pack of 2 cute baby hats! We left with 2 large bags of items and only spent $60. I was able to get a bunch of items our baby needed without spending an arm and a leg. I understand their inventory changes often considering they are consignment so I will be dropping in often to see if I can snag anything else as our baby grows.”

“My little family comes here as often as we can and we love it !!! The owner is so nice and a complete sweetheart !! This is our favorite candy store in Monterey . She brings real Pokémon stuff from Japan and it’s just the best . Not to mention she has my favorite seaweed (the Pokémon kind) and you can’t find it anywhere else .”

“I'm more frustrated with Gemini than the store, but I said I was looking for a unique toy store that features non traditional toys (aka toys I probably would have trouble finding anywhere else). This place was very nice but filled with traditional kids toys (Legos, books, stuffed animals, and the like...all things I could get off of Amazon). I was looking for more unique puzzles, things you can take a apart, stuff like that. This was not that but just a nice little toy shop. If Gemini streets you here for what I was after, you'll be disappointed. If you're a grandparent or parent. Looking to get something to entertain your kids. You'll be fine.”

“My son begged to visit GameStop. And I wasn't confident they would have what he wanted. Amazingly I found EXACTLY what he was looking for on a top shelf. Among other items I'll likely come back to purchase soon. Gonna be honest the store was a mess. Figures and plushies were literally everywhere. But it was a glorious mess for a collector. Like something out of a dream. Anyways I highly recommend visiting this GameStop. It pretty much puts the rest of them to shame. My 7 year old left VERY HAPPY. So you know that makes me happy too.”

“Great staff, selection, and prices! Very attentive but not too much so, and had great sales going on. Comics, manga, figurines, and collectables. One stop shop! Definitely a favorite shop in the area.”

“They don't just sell gag gifts here, they have a number of fascinating items that allow you to actually do magic! I got a svengali card deck (one of the best trick decks), dice bomb, wonder bubbles (turning a bubble into a glass ball), and a couple other smaller magic tricks the shop owner threw in for free (ie. cutting a rope in half, then turning it back into one piece). I honestly thought this was basically a kids toy store, but I really enjoyed the experience without kids. It wasn't just shopping, it was a whole magic show too. And not just one where I got to see amazing tricks, but where I was also taught all the secrets! Yup, if you buy it, the owner (Will Roberts) will show you how it's done, and let you video record it too. The entire staff was super friendly and helpful during my time here this past weekend, and I can truly say I got way more than I expected from my visit. By the way, they do special events here as well, making it an even cooler venue, the oldest magic shop in California (and supposedly haunted too!?!)”
