“Unobtrusive but they have all sorts of handy stuff, like calligraphy pens and environmentally friendly notebooks. Interesting that others comment how friendly the staff is: I have always found them extremely unfriendly: they never say hi, never smile, never even look at me until I get to the cashier. But they're not unkind; they just pay zero attention to customers, in my experience.”
“Today is February 25 2026 and their staff once claimed it expanded it's preschool educational toys for Spring of 2026 and I as a new customer can say positively the inventory covers a lot 200 different type items for ages 3 months old up to 5 months old shocking!!!!!”
“This is my favorite. Barnes & Noble. I ever went to. It felt like a luxurious resort setting with a nice outdoor area. It was a great retreat someplace I could imagine spending a lot of time just hanging out at. I’m glad I’m a few towns away. I’ll probably be back.”
“I celebrated my daughter’s 3rd birthday this past Saturday, and she is still talking about her amazing party! The owner, Danielle, was incredible throughout the entire process and made everything seamless. She went over every detail to ensure my daughter’s birthday was absolutely perfect.
The two ladies who worked during the event were so helpful, professional, sweet, and incredibly welcoming. They made sure everything ran smoothly and that our guests felt comfortable.
My guests loved the venue, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I highly recommend this place for anyone looking to host a special and memorable celebration!”
“Tom’s Trains had such extensive offerings for each train collection out there. The model train set ups were large and interactive as well. Heaven for adults and children alike to wander the magical aisles.”
“This is has been our families favorite book store and children's gift shop for the last 11 years.Last night Halloween in Harlem was just perfect.Marcus Meets Malcom event was truly a Memorable Moment for us”

“I recently began buying my comic books here, and really enjoy it so far. Joe is great. He has my comics set aside for me, so I am in and out. Sometimes, I get tempted to buy a collectible action figure or two. Other times, I buy other comics. The Ferryman Cafe next door is always my second stop. Parking in the neighborhood is not too bad. I always find a spot.”
“Came here with my husband on Sunday and it was so nostalgic for us. It took me back to my childhood and I enjoyed walking all throughout the house. Dan was really nice and chills and made us feel comfortable.”
“I don’t normally leave reviews but this shop is so great! Very cute, wide selection, nice staff… not overpriced/same price as amazon so why not support a local business… and they gift wrap everything for you!”
“I know what you're thinkin': can all these five-star reviews be real?! Look, I can't speak for the others, but this one sure is!We went into TP Toys looking for some toys that would keep our 8-month-old occupied on her first long road trip. Kemesha, the owner, walked us around the store and helped us find some gems. We even doubled back for a new Duplo set just 'cause it was so dang cute.We live a couple towns over, but we'll definitely be repeat customers! I see why they've been in business almost a decade - what a lovely shop!”
“What a great staff! Mr. Alfredo displayed such an amazing fun, considerate, compassionate attitude with a heavy dose of Sense of humor !
Ahahah the staff whose name passes me I apologize the girls were awesome.
I was helped with an order for ship to home and given a complementary gift.
My children love going to this store and as in the pictures. A previous guest made the bug and my daughter made the trees, at in that point Mr Alfredo showed an amazing display of character and care for the project my little one did and displayed it on the register including allowing her to name it “rainbow “ ! Thank you guys. As an avid and constant shopper for the LEGO Store I see how amazing the staff is And leadership/corporate this store is by far top 2 with Danbury LEGO store, they should be recognized. Thank you again!”
“No bathrooms but this location is closest thing to a scholastic book fair for all ages. The layout is smaller than I've experienced but they really take advantage of the space. Really liked the Harry Potter section as it displayed just about anything from the universe you'd like to see. Call ahead for a book that was out of stock in the city with easy pick up.”
“Love this store. Had a lot of Strawberry Shortcake things which I'm hooked on. I bought the hair brush, stickers and Keychain. They are always stocked with merchandise and are very organized. Went back today and purchased Napoleon Dynamite tshirt and computer charging station shelf/riser that have gone viral, they only had one left. I went again yesterday Dec. 5 and theyre fully stocked with X-Mas items. Beautifully stocked.”
“Love this store! It's clean & organized. They have a SUPER employee named Xavier! I didn't even see any other employee in the store this today (4th of July)!”
“Just wanted to send a big thank you to your staff! I ordered the State fuzzy basketball backpack for my nephew literally 24 hours ago and he’s already received it. I was super disappointed that the State website wasn’t restocking it, but then I found it on your online store — and on sale at that! Your website said shipping is 7-9 days so I wasn’t expecting it to get there that quickly. A pleasant surprise and great customer service. And the bag is so adorable. Thanks again!”
“Nice little bookstore, not an enormous selection, but they have a lot of current books, and some best sellers, and you can always ask them to get the book you're looking for. I usually find at least one book I'm interested in. Good children's section in the back as well, with cushions for the little ones to sit at and read. The people working there are always very friendly and helpful.”
“Chris and the staff are INCREDIBLE! Chris is one of, if not, the best people in the Funko community. He is willing to work with you and such a good person. Met him at a recent convention and I wish I was local to NYC to go to his shop whenever.”
“Our go to spot for all things toys and collectibles. I am a big kid at heart anyways, so this place fits the bill. As for my son....he's the reason this gem was even found. Friendly staff, great pricing an overwhelming selection of the lastest comic releases and two locations!”
“Been Coming To This Place On And Off In City Island For Years.

“I brought in my 35 year old Kirsten doll for some much needed TLC. The staff tightened her arms and legs and made her messy hair look fabulous. I can not thank them enough for giving new life to a doll that I thought was long gone. The staff was so kind and friendly and answered all my questions. Thank you thank you thank you!!!”
“Crystal and John were super helpful during my recent trip. I love this toy store for catering to a variety of kids’ interests. They have lots of sports-oriented toys, legos, nerf, crafts, diy kits, books, dollhouses, Barbies, etc. My kids always look forward to going.”
“Big BIG recognition to A.K for her help during our stop at LakeShore on Central Avenue. A beautiful store, bright & positive atmosphere, and the service and help from the workers like A.K made it all the more great.”
“Went in for a bad tire and both Mr. Lee and the Guyanese mechanic took such good care of us. Bought a new tire, new tube and three water bottle holders and got spectacular service. Highly recommend. We live in Manhattan but may return just for them.”

“We love Morning Glory. The staff are always so kind and helpful. The inventory is always updating and fully stocked. You need to check out this adorable store. Snacks, drinks, hard to find toys, stationary, makeup, Photo Booth and now they do parties! Can’t say enough good things about this gem in Closter.”
“I needed birthday gifts for two young girls and had no idea of what to get for them. I found the Toy Box online and drove up this morning. The woman in the store (sorry, but I never got your name) was extremely helpful and friendly. I was able to get gifts for both and I feel confident that the girls will enjoy them. This will now be my go-to store whenever I need to purchase toys.”
“Had an amazing and unexpected experience. I was able to purchase an exclusive stuff animal due to Valentine’s Day and an un expecting surprise of Recent remaining exclusive Giant stuff animal from last year’s holidays. All due to the help of Kim, she is professional, patient, friendly, organized, prioritized timing and considerate of making an instore online exclusive purchase. Best experience I had from here.”

“Just wanted to give a shout out to Ron at BigTop. PartyCity never showed up with balloons for my daughters birthday. I went to BigTop at 8:30am with the party starting at 10am. Ron made the exact balloons we needed (40) and made it easy to transport them quickly home. He had great advice and knowledge to make sure the balloons looked great. Thanks so much!! What a great experience!!!”
“Love Womrath's!! They have a small selection, but they are always able to order any book I need! I would recommend going here for books than any other place! Everyone is super nice, especially Barbara, and it's great to support local businesses!”
