“This is one of the best LGS experiences one can ask for. Regardless if you are a collector, casual/competitive TCG player or someone just looking to pick a hobby up, Manta is where you want to go. Great selection of both sealed and singles, spanning multiple mainline TCGs. The most knowledgeable and approachable staff, I felt very well taken care of.”
“Mildly intimidating street entry, but super helpful staff & a successful field trip :)I've casually collected pennies/quarters while living in Canada, but Australia probably won't be the best place to complete my collection. I had a key void - a 1954 penny - but if I haven't found one yet, I'm not gonna do it in the week before I leave the country without help.Google searching a ‘coin store’ led me to Yonge and King St so I took the elevator up and hoped I was in the right place - success!After a solid team effort sorting through a mound of pennies (if you're looking for a 1953 or 1955 penny, this is the place to go!) they completed my collection AND found me nicer versions of a couple others.THEN they helped out with page 1 of my quarters album - spot the difference in my before/after pics ?They also had a nice selection of coin albums & old/pricey/fancy coins on display, which are cool to look at even if you're not buying them. Thanks for the assist guys!”
“I bought 3 games out of the delivery range, and I was really impressed with their responsive, friendly, and helpful service! Would definitely recommend to others.”
“Easily the best store in Toronto to buy Gumpla and tools! Staff is really nice and helpful! Even if you are not into Gumpla, they literally have all kinds of models! I love this shop! Great prices too!!”
“Wonderful employees, supportive too. I had issues with ? delivery morons from Fed Ex in UK.....ideally would be Royal Mail, but that wasn't among options !”
“Mr.Surprise isn’t just a store it’s a community. It brings people together and is full of happiness. I come here every time I feel down (and even when I don’t) and I always leave feeling better. It’s not just Mr. Surprise but also msteastation and surprise lab, the franchise is just full of joy from its staff to its products. The surprise boxes are always great and they’re consistently restocking popular favs and the bubble tea is the best I’ve ever had, it’s so fresh! My family and I will continue to return again and again!”
“Great selection of gunpla models, anime figures and nendoroids. Very friendly staff. The store has a collector point system to save money on future purchases once you accumulate enough points.”
“Visited Toronto Brewing in January 2024 and was blown away by how knowledgeable and friendly the staff are. We are from Cape Breton where this type of specialty store is virtually non existent. Kyle was soooo friendly and helpful. We will definitely be ordering more products on line. Can't wait to get back home and start brewing.”
“Fair price food quality and a kind owner and he has a nice car too ?..been here before and will be back again for some LED lights and will recommend to my friends too”
“Sheila took my passport photo and she is the absolute best! She is efficient, but makes sure you're happy with the picture before she prints it. She is friendly and professional, and it was an absolute delight to meet her. Thank you so much!”
“I've been ordering my figures here for a few years now, and I can proudly say this is my go-to figure store. The staff are kind and welcoming, and reply quickly and professionally to all communications.
Fair warning, the interior is a liiittle cramped with all the product. Sometimes I feel like I'm going to cause a chain reaction of collapsing waifus (I am big and tall lol.) If the store is busy it is a little awkward to maneuver, but staff will still let you browse and take your time.
Definitely worth checking out if you're interested in anime collectibles and figures!”
“Awesome shop for games and other collectible stuff! Traded in a ton of my old games and got a super fair value on them in store credit. Staff is super friendly and knowledgeable. Will be buying my physical games here going forward.”

“A great place for all your flag needs. Convenient, friendly, and helpful. They famously take no sides in conflicts they aren't attached to and carry or source any flag you need if you ask them. Will definitely be shopping here again”
“One of the most unique bookstores I’ve ever seen. Probably nothing else quite like it in North America (maybe the world). If you have any interest in film/tv books, history, posters etc. this is the place for you!”
“BEST GEM PRICES EVER! Huge selection and just an awesome place. I usually frequent the queen st location, yet this place still harbours the same energy! Definitely recommend checking out this place.”
“We had gone recently for their Speed puzzling competition and it was a blast! Their staff was welcoming, inviting, and encouraging! Great selection of puzzles (among other board games and hobby related merch) !Excited for the next event!”
“This place is nice and has a great set up, has alot of games and consoles in stock and the staff were very nice, I found something that I liked and bought it, the price was good and reasonable. Might come back when I have the chance to come to the city again.”

“I liked this little bird store. Service is friendly and they are knowledgeable and helpful. Parking available in the back with an entrance from the back as well. The only downsides are the selection of bird feed and feeders - I've found another bird store with more variety online and in store, with better price points as well. But overall, I had a nice experience.”
“Excellent reinvention of the downtown store. Highly knowledgeable staff, friendly managers always on the lookout to be proactive and create new opportunities. The space is well used with a cafe and large amount devoted to gaming space. It is still committed to a diverse portfolio of games both from industry leaders and indies along with a great system for ordering at competitive prices. Hairyt is not only my FLGS but my goto East of Calgary.”
“Really great long-standing shop. Only open on weekends so plan accordingly. Owner is responsive to phone calls and inquiries. A great selection of hard to find Tamiya. Pretty cool old-school experience - owner is stoic but helpful. I found a new old stock Tamiya hat in there from the 1980's that was hiding behind the counter. Grail !”
“Incredible store, and has given me the ability to soothe an unending hunger to learn more about how electronics work. I appreciate the time and effort the staff put into keeping the place organized. Sayal Electronics provides a way for me to purchase what I need at short notice, rather than ordering items online.”

“This place is your best chance of finding whatever crafty supplies you might be looking for. They might not have very specific or “niche” manufacturers but they will most likely carry supplies to get you on your way. Knitting, fabrics, sculpting and casting, flower arranging, baking, art supplies, framing. It should honestly be a first stop and then on from there if you draw a blank. Also, when these guys have a framing sale it’s usually an awesome deal so watch out for that.”
“I have no issues with this place at all! The employees are amazing here! They help you out to the fullest! They also have a Sports/Trading Card side and that's were I spend most of my time at A&C games! I absolutely love this place, and the surroundings are amazing lots of good businesses around this area too. I would advise anyone trying to sell or trade Cards/Video Games and Video Game Consoles to give this place a try..”
“If you look closely you will find all the miniatures you need ??.Wonderful place for best prices in the town . Large selection for everyone.Only one negative thing about this place is problem with parking ?️. Spadina Avenue is too busy. But overall ??.”
“Came here to browse at the Gunpla kits in stock. The store window has TONS of already built gunpla and other model kits in display but not too much variety of in stock kits at the time I visited. Probably around two or three dozen different kits with a lot of duplicates of each in a pretty large store. Maybe we missed some because it seemed some kits were hidden behind unrelated boxes. The prices for the kits I saw were alright. Not the best prices and not what I'd called the lower end of prices in the GTA but they're around medium in price I'd say. Bought a singular SD kit cause I was looking for it recently.”
“Been there twice with my broken electronics and they provided great advice and I was able to buy parts to fix my electronics. Very helpful and knowledgeable staff there. Highly recommended.”
“The most organized and fully stocked bead store I’ve ever come across. The staff are incredibly friendly and they offer amazing classes / tutorials. I feel like a kid in a candy store here, I could spend so many hours.”
