“Very cool spot. Went in looking for a specific Bandai model line and found it within five seconds of entry. After that, exploring the shop was fascinating. They seem to have laid it out from low to high difficulty projects, from the front to the back. Up front were my silly Japanese robot models, then shelves of TTRPG textbooks, then printable miniatures, all the way back to the store with the historically accurate scale models, history books, and tabletop terrain materials.
Very cool, will be back for more Bandai stuff.”
“I love their selection of games and puzzles and the staff here are beyond kind and helpful. To the sweet sweet human being who yippee with me about your dice options, I adore you ♡”

“Anime Zakka is a nice store located near the end of Newbury Street, close to Uniqlo and Muji. It is below ground, leading you into a place to be immersed by anime and Japanese pop culture.
I enjoyed browsing and wandering around the store, as there were many products I’ve never heard of or seen. I found Tomica cars, a product I’ve never seen in Boston before but know many car collectors may enjoy looking at. I also found many stuffed animals I never knew existed for products I like, such as Miffy.
The only downside is the products I did know were overpriced. I am a big fan of collecting lottery items, and they were nearly double the price at the store compared to what I could buy it for at online retailers.”
“This store is great inside the north shore mall. My daughter was looking to get some new Lego stuff and was able to find some fun things. We are from Albuquerque, NM and do really have a store like this so it was nice and fun to come and get things that she would love.”

“I love this store ! they have such high quality clothing! I buy my nephew clothing here for his birthday and the holidays. The people working here have always been so helpful as well!”
“Such a sweet place with a wonderful selection of toys and cutesy items. I stopped in to find a gift for a family member who was getting out of the hospital and found the perfect thing.”
“Great local place for video games, I've been here multiple times. Warning tho, website is very old with inaccurate hours, Place is open 10am to 1pm most days. I always find something great here.”
“This is a great store for collectors like me. The reason it is not 5 stars is because of the 50 dollar ultimate edition WWE figures which is crazy but I love the place and come here every month!”
“I shop here everyone once in a while and they have nice sets at both locations and fairly reasonable pricing.
Where they lose a 5 star review is when they go through the effort to repackage a set for it to be missing a lot of its critical pieces. Rebuilding a 2002 AT-TE I purchased here and missing easily 30 pieces critical to the technic and structural supports are gone. If you’re going to repackage a set it implied it was complete. Maybe in the future notate that if you’re gonna go through the effort to rebag something you’d have to know is incomplete”
“I attended the fabric ornament-making workshop at Maxima Gift Center and absolutely loved it! We created beautiful handmade ornaments by pinning fabric onto foam balls, such a fun and relaxing process. Our instructor, Candace, was wonderful. She explained each step clearly and was right there to help whenever we got stuck.
I left with one finished ornament and a full kit to make another at home. Highly recommended!”
“Love this cute, little bookstore!! It’s a wonderful place for gifts for children. Their book selection is perfect and the owner gives great advice on what kids of different ages would like. They also support local authors—we actually met one in the store who drew a custom drawing for our son. It’s obvious a lot of love goes into this place.”

“Made my first visit yesterday for my 5 month old baby. What a cute store with such high quality goods. It's so nice to shop in person at a local business and see and feel what you want to buy! I got a cosy sleep sack for my baby and hope to be back soon.”
“There were two books I was looking for. This guy - Andy- wasted not second showing me their locations off the top of his head. Several translations of one; i think five.
Awesome. Thanks.”
“Very great selection for hot wheels cars. Great deal 8 cars in a package for $19.99 great rewards program, when you go employees will tell you about the rewards program. Very kind Managers and employees.”

“I feel like I’m in Europe every time I walk into this sweet spot - it is my favorite in Boston. It is full to the brim with treasures - the most beautiful children’s clothing and thoughtfully curated selection toys that you can enjoy in your home and make the most magical gifts. Everything I have purchased there is treasured by me and my children. The owner and her mother who work together there are a dream and such a pleasure to shop with, they have helped me on countless occasions. ❤️❤️❤️”
“I wanted to share my fantastic experience we had at Lakeshore specifically with Meghan ( I hope that was her name) From the moment we asked for help she went ABOVE AND BEYOND for us. We have a grandchild who is severely disabled. She took the time to ask just the right questions in such a polite manner to find us the best toys and activities for him. I’m not a big reviewer but I believe, we have such terrible customer service in general in a lot of stores. Most employees hate their job. Not this young lady, she absolutely loved her job and it showed . I felt so good to see someone who enjoy what they were doing and it beamed through her to me and my wife’s experience. The service she showed will stay with her no matter where she works she will always put 100% into everything she does.
We were so lucky to have her help us that day find just the right activities to help our little one enjoy his gifts. We will be back and thank you again for making our stop there an enjoyable one .
To Lakeshore specifically, this employee is someone you want to hold onto for a lifetime . This is what will make your company grow !”
“This is a toy store(visited the Brookline location)with a variety of toys, books, creative projects and various other items. The little friends love visiting @ Henry Bear's Park!”
“This store is full of high quality toys for kids of all ages. It’s a must visit if you are looking for gifts kids will actually use. Staff is incredibly friendly and knowledgeable- thanks for the help Asia!”

“A really cute toy store. Amazing people, amazing products. It’s always a joy to go to and I go out of my way for this one specifically due to their stock and personality. If the other Henry Bear’s Park stores don’t have it, this one is for sure to. There’s a puzzle actively being worked on when you go in, there’s a very welcoming energy.”
“We had our daughter's 8th birthday party there and the entire staff was so lovely. Bethany was the host of the party and she gave the kids a great experience. We will definitely come back next year for her 9th birthday party.”
“I absolutely love Learning Express in Somerville! They have an amazing variety of toys, and the staff is so warm and helpful—if you’re hunting for toys, this is definitely the place to go.”
“Our family loves Battleground! They're one of the few places that still carries Lorcana cards, and we're so happy they do. They're very kid friendly, and are always so kind. They've consistently gone above and beyond offering answers and solutions. Brianna has been especially wonderful, and has even given our daughter free promotional cards and stickers. They make our day every time we come in, and we're so happy to have such a great local game store so close by!”

“Great toy store. The automatic gift receipts on the bar code are very convenient. The MBTA trains are a great gift to bring a taste of Boston to out-of-town friends.”
“They might be a little more expensive but it's a family owed busines. I would rather bring my child there and spend my money so they can have that toy store expensive. I had toys R us growing up.They are super friendly and they have tons of fun toys for all ages”
“They located the little tin tops my granddaughter loves and held them and a baby doll for me till I could pick it up. Great selection of toys and accommodating staff”
“Great little spot full of really cool and unique gift ideas, I find myself here often when I'm on Market St. sometimes it's something in the window that draws me in, other times it's just curiosity but this place never seems to disappoint. Worth a visit if you have the time and worth making the time for if you don't.”
