“So awesome to see a local toy shop in Red Bank. Love stopping by when I get the chance. The owners are always such a pleasure to speak to! You can tell they love what they do”
“We frequent this LEGO store more than any other because of the store size, selection and most importantly, the staff. These are the kindest, most welcoming, genuine and insightful employees I've ever had the pleasure to interact with. They care about the customers to the point where I am learning something new every visit. I'd give this location all the stars if I could. Highly recommend 👍👍”
“Everyone there is so helpful and knowledgeable on what toys are most popular and would be good for the personality of the child you are buying them for. Plus, they wrap everything so beautifully. Don't know what I would do without them.”
“Amazing store with a huge selection of cards and gifts for every occasion. Not over priced either! Staff is wonderful and always very helpful. I highly recommend taking a visit into one of their stores.”
“Paul is a great guy. Very enthusiastic and knowledgeable. His store is extremely well stocked with Warhammer, both 40k and Fantasy. He also has tons of action figures from the 1960 to the present; GI Joe's, Star Wars, and other memorable franchises. Definitely a excellent place to go! Highly recommended!”

“A true gem for parents and those in need. As a mom of three, I’ve been buying and consigning here for years. I appreciate that they only accept clean items with all pieces. I’m able to call ahead or message on Instagram to ask if they have something in stock and always get a polite and immediate response. It’s amazing to be able to find things that you need without paying full price and help reduce bulk waste. Cottontails also always has stocked shelves for those in need (diapers, wipes, formula, nursing pads, etc) which is located in the bathroom and on a ‘give what you don’t need and take what you need’ basis. Thanks Marisa and staff. You guys rock.”
“Irina is the best pharmacist on the east coast! Always nice, always caring. Legitimately care about your health and well-being, unlike these big box pharmacies like well you know who.”

“I have called this store several times the past weeks to see if they have it in stock and have stopped in. Every employee that I have interacted with over the phone or in person has been so helpful and one of the best customer service skills from the various employees. I mentioned it the manager when I called today. Keep up your excellent customer service you all provide.”

“semi organized, semi affordable thrift store. not the worst not the best. i personally had some nice finds, however, there are a lot of items that are in the $10-25 range when they're used and not even in the best condition. this thrift has A LOT of uggs, faux fur jackets and boots, socks, and women's shoes in general.
only suggestions id have is
1. please lower prices. used uggs are not worth $40. :(
2. add labels for what sizes are where and what clothing items are where. there aren't enough at all
that's really it. this is a decent thrift for the girlies and even the boys!! lots of kid clothes too!!”
“The best I ever bought only probelm is I thought it's was rechargeable. I stepped on one of the cars the first day I bought it my 5 years old could not wait for me to be done setting it up now I need one more car where can I buy a single car I pd R1300 in South Africa. A bit expensive but very good and reliable set.”

“Best hobby shop in New England . Drove all the way from Boston because the customer service is top notch and they treat you like family . They have everything from sports cards, rc cars/trucks/boats, model cars/planes/trains. You can walk around this place for hours. If you like hobby shops they’ll have something for you.”

“I love this place. I’m a big fan of their live Monday night sales but also have been in store (sadly only once so far!) I was greeted very warmly and welcoming by all the staff who helped with any Qs. As a girl in the hobby, it’s nice to feel welcome :) Huge fan of Santiago Sports.”
“We drove over an hour to the Build A Bear at Freehold Mall to make a gender reveal bear and it was absolutely worth it! Brian was an absolute doll. He was so excited for us, incredibly sweet, and beyond patient throughout the entire experience. He truly made the moment feel special from start to finish!
We were not finding out the gender there and Brian went above and beyond to keep everything a surprise. He completely covered the box so we could not see anything, dressed the bear in the back, and did everything possible to make sure the gender stayed hidden while still making the experience exciting and memorable!
He made the entire process so special, not just preparing for the reveal but creating our baby’s very first bear. You can tell he genuinely loves what he does and cares about making these moments meaningful for families. I would happily make the drive again just to work with Brian!”
“I was a mess with trading in my Xbox. Went to 2 diff stores that were dead they couldn’t help me. Mike and Chris went above and beyond for me I could have had 7 diff problems for multiple different reasons but they helped me with every problem coming up with a solution great friendly ppl great staff great GameStop. Would be excited to go back to GameStop just to say hi to those guys they were so cool!!!”
“I love a Barnes & Noble, but this particular one is one of the only ones I have been to that doesn't have a designated clearance section. One thing I love most about going to Barnes and Noble is perusing the discounted section and finding hidden treasures there. I make the 5 minute extra drive the next one over for that.”
