This toy store looks small and for young children from the outside, but it has an excellent selection of toys and games for all ages! The real treasure is the lady in the store, I suppose she is the owner, as she knows her inventory in and out and can guide any child to find the perfect gift. I brought my son's 11 yr old school friend so he could choose his present, and we had so much fun trying out puzzles, learning about new games. Plus she orders classic versions of board games, such as Monopoly, Chinese checkers, Clue, etc. with the original components. Worth a visit! You won't be disappointed.

What a find so close to home! Lots and lots of choices. The owner, Dee Stevens is always so helpful. Tell her about the child and she’ll steer you in the right direction.

Well-curated and well-stocked collection of toys, games and activities for kids of all ages. The knowledgable owner makes helpful suggestions, describing each item in terms of the child's play and learning experience, specific to their age, often with a live demo. You and your child will leave the store happy with your purchase(s).

the store is nice, but the owner definitely doesn't like kids! she has no empathy, no patience towards kids and also does not hesitate to talk to the kids directly about any "bad" behavior, like touching the toys. I live very close and would make every effort it not to go there ever again.

After multiple trips to several stores, trying to find the perfect gift for my two year old's birthday I walked into Grow-cery! I found the perfect gift! It will now be my go to place for children's gifts. Worth the trip!

I've read a lot of bad reviews and I'm surprised. My kid is 8 and knows better but had a moment of insanity and started hopping up to smack a toy box from a high perch. I heard the first hop and turned around and immediately scolded him and asked what it was he wanted. The owner was there and only smiled as if she understood. She did not say anything or scold my kid. She just sorted of laughed with me as I joked that all I needed was for him to smash a whole section that I'd have to pay for. Everyone was polite and pleasant and it was busy with kids and parents. We ended up buying a few things that were hard to find in terms of the price i budgeted. The Funko pops as an example where about 20-30% over in their pricing. Why then a 3? Well...many of the toys are stained and yellowing and are overpriced. Even the comics were overpriced. In general, I can understand the pricing from a place like this but overall it is not easy to shop for a small kid on a budget in such a store. It's not easy to shop for collectibles for myself as everything is generally dirty. I started sneezing just walking inside. Similar, almost a twin brother setting for A&M comics in Miami, Fl. Down to the string up toys yellowed and caked in dust. In the end, it's a comic shop, not a gaming or hobby shop, nor a toy store. So it gets a 3 overall.

I am really surprised that there are not more poor reviews. I went to this store 5 years ago with my 4 year old, and the owner was very rude to my son. He was playing on the front train table that she has set up for kids to play on. We left, and I haven't been back until today because I decided to give her a second chance. Maybe she had a bad day. Today, I brought my 4 year old daughter because I told her she could pick out a present if she did not suck her thumb for one week (breaking bad habits over here!). I was browsing as my daughter played on the front table. This time it had a few puzzles and fine motor toys for young children. I would say that the toys were meant for younger children, maybe ages 2-3 but my daughter decided to engage. The owner walked up and snatched one of the toys out of her hands because she had put a piece that was not supposed to go into one of the holes. Then, my daughter picked up another puzzle (meant for a younger age as it probably had 6 pieces in it total) and the owner looked at her and said "I am not going to let you play with this. I can tell you will not be putting everything back in the right way." I picked my daughter up and said "That's it we are leaving" She started sobbing and crying that she did not pick out her toy yet. As we got in the car, my daughter said "Why did that lady do that to me?" I have literally never reviewed anything in my life, but being that this was a store I gave a second chance to and then had a more horrible experience the second time, I feel like I must. I hope the owner reads this.

Horribly rude owner to both myself and my children. Arrived 15 minutes late to open the store and proceeded to bite my head off for attempting to follow her inside, telling me to wait outside (even longer) while she opens shop. I left and will not return again, despite convenience of in-town shop.
