Heather and the other employees (I’m sorry I forgot the names) were so nice and helpful, we forgot our certificates and they ran us down to get them to us. By far the best BAB experience I’ve had so far. You don’t find a lot of great customer service like them.

Hands down the best Build-A-Bear I've ever gone to.Every staff member so was so kind, welcoming, and amazing. I can't begin to express how happy I am about this visit. I got one of my plushies completely restuffed and one stuffed for the first time - they hand sewed them back up with so much care. We talked about the ponies and how it seems like a lot of people don't come by with them anymore!Thank you so much guys for the awesome and memorable experience. It was one of a kind. ♡

So fun. My sorority sisters and I went and they were so welcoming and excited for us. Johnita went above and beyond to accommodate us. We will be returning soon to build more bears.

This was our first experience at build a bear, Octavia greeted us with excellent care and attention. Wonderful customer service skills and a very welcoming personality. Johnita helped us bring our little friends to life and truly made our first experience something truly special. Checking out we were also very pleased with the customer service by Madison, she checked us out in a timely manner despite the Black Friday chaos and made sure that our needs were fully satisfied before leaving. Excellent teamwork everyone, we will certainly be coming back soon!

Excellent experience. Took my seven-year-old daughter to get her first bear for her birthday. She was pretty shy at first, but the staff were super friendly and professional. Alex gently walked her through every step of the process so she got exactly what she wanted. My daughter had so much fun and she loves her bear! Will definitely be back.

Took my 5 year old who was pumped on this birthday bear business. Waited in front of gate of Build a Bear at 11am. Disgruntled employees opened gate a few minutes late. I didn't care about that, but what I did care about, was the fact that the two working, especially the younger one, seemed to not want to be there at all. I told younger one (after being ignored by older one who was texting) that we were here for the b-day bear and she pointed to it on the wall and said "that's it" instead of engaging with my child and doing her job. I held in my frustration at her terrible attitude and customer service bc I didn't want to ruin the experience for my child. I had to prompt this employee to get the bear and provide service (crazy notion right?) to my child and myself, but really, my child. I of course had to buy more stuff, outfit etc, but hated the thought of giving $ to this business. I thought of it more as giving joy to my daughter. Whatever the reason these ladies were not thrilled to be at work today, there is no excuse for not being positive and joyful in a business made for kids. When the girl finally got the bear to stuff, she quickly rushed through the routine with my daughter, but she at least spoke kindly to her. Why work at this place if you don't want to be nice to people? That was my kids first and last b-day build a bear.

I called on Wednesday to verify availability of the Disney Stitch character. Business hours are listed as opening at 11am. I picked up FOUR children anddrove 1.5 hours. We arrived at the Asheville mall at 11:20am on Thursday. The store was closed. There was no sign on the door. We had to call, only to find out that they were closed due to staffing issues. "Oh, but we will reopen tomorrow." Build a Bear corporate: maybe you should review your pay scale, benefits, and management to discover why you can't keep employees. From 4 very disappointed kids (and upwards of $200 to spend) #Barnesandnoblegotmymoney
