“Helpful staff. They really went out their way to help me pick out a gift. Asked questions, checked the back, showed different features etc. I will go back in person anytime I’m looking for a quick but nice gift to get!”
“Amazing place to find comic books from local artists to manga and anime products! Tons of figurines and toys, collectibles and memorable pieces from your childhood can be found here. Wonderful staff and the owner, Randy is super friendly and accommodating! Definitely should check this place out for gifts and collectibles!”
“Exceptionally packaged - care and consideration went into how the item was packed and I appreciate that! My purchase was a rare game at a great price and received in pristine condition. This was my first time purchasing from this store and will be coming back. Thanks!”
“Shananigans is a well stocked & friendly neighborhood toy shop with everything under the sun & owners are knowledgeable & helpful with free giftwrap service - I stop here before every celebration or special occasion .”
“These folks know their stock inside and out! They had a lot of super enthusiastic ideas for what to recommend us for a family trip we are on with a wide range of ages and interests. Can't wait to get back to our group to burst these open and play and laugh for hours.”

“I am new to the trading card world, my brother recommended level up as he frequents there. I have been going for a few months now, as I have turned into a Lorcana collector. The staff members are great, always very welcoming and very knowledgeable. It’s a great vibe every time I’ve been there, and I plan on continuing to do business with them. Hoping to offload some bulk soon.”
“Stopped for the first time on Tuesday May 28th. Spoke to Andy, the manager and owner. Great comic shop! An excellent selection of current comics, back issues, and trades. Plus their selection of toys and action figures was really good! I found two trades that were tough to find for me. Andy asked me if it was my first visit. I replied yes and ended up receiving a very nice gift/ thank you bag! Looking forward to my next trip!!”
“Parking is off Falls rd. For gps, use 1813 Falla rd which is the Baltimore Bicycle Works. There's a small lot under the bridge and LOTS of stairs up to the front door.”
“I don’t go to bookstores often (my tax dollars support the local library), but every time I’ve gone to Long Gate’s B&N I’ve been pleased. The absence of ramps and heaviness of the doors don’t bother me now that my kids are out of strollers and in college, and I like browsing so I can add books to my TBR list! I used to meet there in the late evenings with my co-leader to plan events for our moms group, and it was an excellent atmosphere—quieter than most libraries! I’m meeting my neighbor there tomorrow night and anticipate another great time. I’m not bothered by what Starbucks does or doesn’t accept; it’s a bookstore, and I’m looking at books. I don’t go to a bookstore for coffee and pastries (or in my case, chai and a croissant sandwich). But as a member, I do get a discount on Starbucks purchases as well as free shipping (so I wouldn’t need to go to the store at all, but what fun would that be?).”

“BAM is a spacious area with a variety of items from pop figures, to books and manga along with other various items. Not too long ago I actually bought a pop figure which is going for much more than I originally bought it for. I really enjoyed this place and the workers are very kind, but don't forget to bring a bag because sometimes they run out (at least that was the case when I went).”
“I love Ollie's but God forbid you have to use the bathrooms here. On one hand, if its an emergency and you gotta go, there's a bathroom. On the other hand, pooping your pants might be more sanitary.”

“Best local, and probably, statewide toy shop. John and the crew always have the best selection, positive attitudes, and passion for any fandom. Especially classic wrestling!If you want something, come by here and take a look!”
“A neat little game shop that has some cool board and tabletop games and a small, but cool, selection of retro games. It is a little tight quarters because of all the goodies packed in. Tables in the back would be great for group gaming.”
“Blown away!!At the quality of character and just how knowledgeable and well mannered the employee was at this store!!She was able to not only answer every question I had surrounding games and platforms but was also able to personalize it for my specific benefit!!How often does a brilliant employee at a retail store make you feel important?Very grateful and if all retail experiences were this good who knows???”
“One of my favorite stores to exist! This should the the start of your journey if you enjoy collecting, especially if you budget everything like I do. They have a specific shelf where everything is labeled for $1. You can also find many different styles of collectibles: from ceramics, to books, toys, dolls, etc. All of which span through different generations, some newer and others aged. Also, the owners May and her husband are wonderfully kind people. Check out these little gems! (We enjoy creepy dolls in my household)”

“The experience over all was great and I found a good quality hammer that I really enjoy. There is also an employee named Jake that was absolutely amazing. He was very professional in addition to being friendly and adept. He actually saved me and my siblings from a burning building back in 2009 and I have never forgotten his heroism. He is the perfect man and quite frankly, I would marry him if he wasn't constantly surrounded by beautiful suitors and scouts for D1 athletic agencies. Over all my experience was outstanding, all in part to Jake, the light of my life.”
“Cute little Japanese type store. I love to see all the cute little things they sell from stationary products to lunch boxes you'll find it all at reasonable prices”

“It’s a nice big store, they are abundantly well stocked. Everything is placed properly. I love the vinyl figurines here. They have less selection here.
Art & craft, beauty section is great! Toys section is okay, have seen wide selections at other five below stores.
Staff is very polite and helpful. Great candy stock!
There’s plenty of parking, it’s close to Aldi & Lowe’s!”
“Great selection of items. Actually went in for a couple of bed beds I saw in last week's flyer. Unfortunately they were no longer available but picked up a small Santa Claus figurine for my wife's display.”
“Staff could use a course on working with a sense of urgency rather than having a 20 talk about grading cards rather than helping customers work over interest guys the og there still rocking it”
“This store has so many cool things and the funko pops seem to be here before anywhere else. The employees are super helpful and nice to me as well, definitely recommend as a cool mall store. ?”
