“I bought gifts for six different people with very different tastes here! She has such a great collection of cool stuff, and honestly priced too. Usually at gift shops most of the merchandise makes me cringe, but she clearly has a talent for finding interesting gifts to fit all sorts of people. No tacky knick knacks or tschotchkes”
“Stop researching strollers and car seats on the internet. Just come ask Mika - she's so so so helpful! She even walked to our car with us to figure out which car seat fit better.”
“Has everything. College vibes abound. Prices are a little higher then the cheapest on the internet but feel fair given that there is actually helpful staff around.”
“Great toy shop with excellent customer service and a huge selection of toys and books. All price ranges of toys, from infant to grown up there's a toy for everyone here.”
“Quite the toy store. The staff are friendly, I went in looking for a unique chess board and they had one in stock. The prices are quite fetching in this store and I did not get the item because of that, but still a good spot for the family and kids in the neighborhood to meander in and have fun.”

“This gift shop in downtown Sausalito is one of the better stores, featuring local souvenirs with "Sausalito" emblazoned on them, and also fun products from around world like Studio Ghibli stuff and Adventures with Tin Tin books and gifts! It's a BIG store -- take some time to check out all the nooks of this shop! Prices ranges here depending on what item -- but there's something for everyone here. Staff are not intrusive and generally will service you at the check-out counter.”
“This place is so awesome I needed a mask but they still let me in and my kid played with his electronics alot now not anymore the store and the staff are the best I EVER SEEN!!!!!”
“Very cool toy store. Great mix/range of toys. From silly/fun/lower engagement to developmental/higher engaging. Kind staff. Included complimentary gift wrapping with purchase of toys. They also will wrap toys/gifts from elsewhere for a nominal charge. Very nice wrapping with string bow. Cool store to just explore as well! Seems like they are engaged with the community, and sponsor a youth sports team. Kid friendly with supervision, and leashed dog friendly.”
“This place is amazing! I’ve impressed everyone I know who has had a baby with the outfits I’ve bought from here. The used section has really unique gems at good prices.”
“The second my partner and I saw how unassuming this shop is we knew we were in for something good. The collection in here is amazing, and the owner is very nice. You can tell there is a lot of love for collecting and anime/geek culture in here. Really wide selection spanning tons of different anime, manga, comics, games, across many decades. Japanese moomin merch (or ANY moomin merch, for that matter) is really hard to come by in the u.s., and we were able to get a cute moomin plushie from Japan, one that neither my partner and I have ever seen before despite being moomin fans for 5+ years. Even if we hadn't gotten the plushie I was honestly happy knowing that the owner at least knew what moomin was. I'll definitely be stopping by in the future next time I'm in Oakland/Emeryville.”
“Amazing customer service. I used there Warranty program and was blown back. I have been buying poi from them Since the original ones and traded mine in for a newer set. I thought the process was going to be hard but the employees made is very easy. They explained how everything worked and keep in contact we me though email the whole time. I would like to say I’m a customer for life but I already decided that a long time ago. Also I was shocked how fast they shipped my stuff back to me. Keep up the exceptional customer service.”
“This place is wonderful!! It’s my go to for a great present for a baby. I love that they have both new and used stuff, and the sale rack is legit. The people who work there are kind and helpful. It’s so cool that you can sell your high quality baby clothes if you don’t have anyone on the hand me down train. Highly recommended!!”

“The exploratorium store was a cool spot with a huge range of gifts to get. It is the gift shop to the Exploratorium. I liked the black sand exhibit at the Exploratorium and asked the sales associate there for some. She was very happy and eager to lead the way to the black sand. They also have a bunch of other cool tacky stuff to buy from a test tube glass tea diffuser to crystal rocks.A jar of black sand was $9.72 which I thought was a fair price to pay.”

“The staff is very knowledgeable about real books. But the store seems to lack the majority of books, half of the story still books but the other half is toys, games and other ridiculous items that I would not buy in a bookstore.”
“Love this store! I got some great clothes for my pooh bear. The store is big. The workers are awesome! Thanks to Eziyah and cierra for helping me shop and helping me use my many giftcards. You guys are awesome workers! Give them a raise? ❤️ will definitely be back.”
“Ying Hobbies & Toys it's the hidden gem you never knew you needed! My wife stumbled upon this treasure while on a quest for Gunpla goodness, and boy, am I glad she did. Tucked away in a cozy spot, Ying Hobbies & Toys might play hard to get at first, but once you lay eyes on its bounty of plastic wonders, you'll be hooked. The store might be small, but it's bursting at the seams with an array of model kits that'll make any Gundam fan's heart skip a beat. Seriously, choosing just one model feels like trying to pick a favorite child - impossible and bound to hurt someone's feelings. But fear not, the guy running the place is pretty helpful. With his guidance, navigating through the sea of model kits becomes a breeze! Oh and the pricing is super fair specially for all the cool stuff you can find. So, if you're a Gundam enthusiast or just someone who appreciates the art of model kits, do yourself a favor and pay Ying Hobbies & Toys a visit. Trust me, it'll quickly become your go-to spot for all things Gunpla. Happy building, fellow plastic yelp warriors!”
“A fantastic toy store for kids of all ages! Average pricing. This shop is crammed with products, offering all sorts of toys, games, books, accessories, postcards and gifts. I especially love the selection of books about Sausalito and SF that were right at the front of the store.”

“Wasn't sure what to make of this shop when I first moved into the neighborhood, but two years later I don't know what I'd do without it! They have a very well-curated selection of cards, way better than you'd find in a drug store or supermarket. They also have a constantly rotating collection of random giftable items that have helped me out in a pinch on several occasions. Prices might be a bit higher than some other places, but good taste doesn't come cheap!”
“Maggie is friggin wonderful. About a year ago I started a personal conscierge service. Needless to say I'm still learning how to shop for items that are not PS5 or Steam related. Good ole Maggie eased my anxiety and made it an overall pleasant interaction. Once again. Thank you young lady. You're the bomb.”
“Very cute toy shop down this street. It's 2 stories and is decorated from top to bottom. Definitely a great place to bring your kids or just to look around if you just like cute things in general. They have gift wrapping here as well and there's some children's books on the top floor. Lots of unique toys that you generally won't find in big retail stores with a toy section, but they have some popular and familiar characters, brands, and series too (Minecraft, Sonic, etc.). Of all the shops down this street, I think this one stood out the most.”
“Floor to ceiling with toys for all ages. I bought my nephew a geode to break open. All seems a little pricey to me but I come from an era when the woods or a good mud hole was considered fun to last years.”

“I think there’s a risk to every purchase but the shop owner/clerk at the time clearly communicated to me which Labubus were fakes and which were authentic so I appreciate that. Happy to report that I got both for some friends/family and they were indeed as he described! I would just double check and make sure you know which are authentic (boxes have an QR code on them) and which are the fake ones (no QR code). See if you can tell which are which from my pics. Would go back for more when they restock!”
