“Vortex carries a bit of everything. Video games, retro games, Lego sets, the occasional board game, action figures...if you want it, he's probably got it squirreled away somewhere. Worth a trip from anywhere!”
“I really love this place. They have gifts of all kinds. Stuff you wouldn't find anywhere else. Of course books are there too. I recommend you check it out. I found a few Christmas gifts and am going back to pick up some more”
“Absolutely LOVE this location. Staff is so pleasant. I leave smiling every time I go. It is clean and the product placement looks great. The cash wrap area is never a mess either. It’s really an awesome shopping experience. I greatly appreciate my interaction with the store manager last week. He may not have known but I was really struggling. Thank you.”
“Very nice that we could build minifigures and even buy them! They also had a bunch of crazy cool sets to buy. My friend went and his minifigures went over the accessory limit by one but thankfully our cashier had common sense and didn’t punish us. Thank you again.”
“Such beautiful used books, some different languages, classics, beautiful and well cared for editions. I hear they also have an online database for their books that expand out of what they have in store”
“I have to give a huge shout out to the sweet girl working this morning. She was amazing with my granddaughter. She was so fun and made her 3rd birthday and first time there such a memorable experience. Thank you !! We will be back :)”
“Got all the stuff I needed. All the self checkouts were closed except one. The employee there would scan and use the self checkout as if it were a regular checkout.”
“Wide selection of ice cream. I only got cake. Nice vibe. It was cold and rainy when I went but the outside seating must be really nice in the summer. I will go back to try the ice cream next time I'm in town.”

“For a relatively small store, it's amazing how much interesting (to me anyway) stuff there is in here. When I first walked, in, I thought it was mostly for kids, but as I strolled around, I was amazed in a good way at the inventory here, including an assortment of smaller games (card, dice, social, party, etc), "grumpy old people" themed socks, a variety of interesting books, and more. There's a lot of things here which I don't necessarily need but are still calling out for some of my discretionary income. I have quite a few friends who would also definitely enjoy coming here when they visit me.”
“Great place to go and have some fun. I highly recommend this place for everone kids all ages....The variety of items, old and new that they stock is great! There is so much to look at, I don't think it could be done in a day! Personnel and customer service is top notch.”
“My mom and I walked in to this store I first ran into while getting coffee and I love baby and child boutiques. Coming from NYC I love a variety of brands and styles. This place had it all. We’re a fan of Pink Chicken and to my surprise they had it! They have plushies, tween clothes, traditional to more in trend clothes for kids and babies. My mom loved the attention that Kim gave us and how happy she was to have us come in! She gift wrapped our items very nicely and chatted with us that we lost track of time and she was kind enough to stay 10mins past the close time. But it wasn’t her fault we talk too much hahah. But a very pleasant experience and beautiful customer service ? can’t wait to go back!”
“We have had a fun full day of excitement and culture. And now mom and dad took me to GameStop to get me a new game for my handheld Nintendo switch. I am looking forward to playing it tonight”

“Fun, clean, good flow, many products are $5 and $4 dollars. Really have to watch the prices. Products never stick around long. When they're in the front seasonal section on the right and only a few are left, they either get moved to the back or on a table in the front, on the left at a discount price. They also have separate standing racks that are separate vendors. Not affiliated as a five below product. They are a vendor product. Will vary per store. Be careful on the purchase.”
