“Great place and fun selection of books! Just taking 1 star off because of the truly puzzling decision to lock what was basically the front door. I can understand if there was some shoplifting issue or something, but why the doors near the children’s area? That side of the building has the most people due to facing other storefronts and the shopping center’s main parking lot. They now want people to walk around to the basically deserted part of the shopping mall, with nothing but the PF Chang, basically no foot traffic at all. If you were say at the Five Below or Panera and then wanted to check out the bookstore for impulse shopping or something, you have to walk around. It’s a thing you have to really think to do, since there’s really nothing on the back area of Settlers Ridge. I just don’t understand. Why not keep the children’s area doors open and the back area locked? I think the management decision is making this bookstore lose business and inconvenience potential customers.”

“I have visited this location a few times now since moving here. Not only do I love that they have Dubai chocolate but I love that the store manager always remembers me and made me feel welcomed! Thank you for amazing service! My favorite location by far!”
“Solid shop. Great selection of back issues and prices. Staff is always friendly and helpful. In addition to comics, they also have games and a plethora of other pop culture items.”
“The owner is super helpful/kind and has a toy room for kids to play in while parents shop. She has great quality toys, clothes, shoes etc. for an even better price. I prefer to check here before I go anywhere else, especially for specific toys or things like ballet uniforms. Makes me feel good to put money in a local mom’s pocket and save the planet a little by shopping gently used, rather than box store.”
“I ordered a baby gift for a co-worker and it was so cute! Tiny Tots Boutique personalized it and shipped it for me, and my co-worker loved it! I highly recommend! Their stuff is adorable!”
“So many fun things, I do a giveaway every month on Facebook and most of the gifts in the basket are from 5 n below, I love them like I love party city ???”
“I have been working with Birdbrain products for many years. From the very first time I was introduced to them at a PD session, the company’s staff have been outgoing, friendly, and supportive. I have used the products to teach children and well as adults. Each and every time I use the products with students/adults, I know they are reliable and will last. The Hummingbird and Finch hold their charge, the parts are durable, and I rarely have any issues. If and when something goes awry (which is a rarity), the company’s technical support is as reliable and dependable as their products.”
“We had my daughter’s 4th birthday party here and it was awesome!! The process of booking was easy, what was expected of me was clear, and, most importantly, the kids had a blast! I wish I could remember the hostess’s name…Beth, maybe?….,but she was wonderful!! We were there 2/22/25 so if you see this…Thank You!! Definitely recommend!”
“The last time I walked into this wonderful toy store was between 2000-2002. The memories are so strong. I was downtown this afternoon for brunch with my partner and had a spontaneous memory Of visiting this place, so we decided to go check it out again.
Walking in, the memories from being here 23 years ago Instantaneously flooded back into my mind. The place has changed very little and it is such a gorgeous building. There is such an EXPANSIVE inventory of toys here- modern and a Few hidden vintage finds- toys you won’t be able to find in any retail space within 100 miles of here. The employee Lauren shared with me that there were approximately 20 to 30,000 different SKUs as of 2002- She has no idea how many excuses there are today in 2026, but we can only estimate there are likely double that amount. Occasionally, you will run across a product that has a SKU number that doesn’t even work in the system anymore. A coloring book that was sold 25 years ago.
This is a Pittsburgh gem, a true staple. I hope to goodness it stays around for as long as humanly possible. The original owner Was still there to greet us in the back of the store and on the second floor I spoke with an employee Lauren, who was so wonderful to me. She shared her experiences working there, She shared the history of the building, and allowed me an opportunity to see certain floors of the building I’ve never seen before. I want to thank Lauren and commend her for her excellent customer service. This is my first time back in the store in 25 years and The one hour experience I had there today is a memory that will last me a lifetime (just the same as the memories I hold visiting here as a child)
The Pittsburgh community needs to do more to support this business. It is a treasure that is worth preserving for another century to come”
“Ever since the Needoh and squishy craze, this place has been insanely busy. The staff are very pleasant and always answers everyone's questions with a smile. My only recommendation would be is to limit the amount of the customers in the store as some are completely insane grabbing squishy toys off the shelf and shoving their way through the crowded store. Other than that, you can 100% tell the staff are very accommodating to their customers.”
“This location was really lovely. The employees were all very helpful, and Colton made the experience special for my little cousin, who was originally nervous. She can't wait to come again!”
“We took our daughter to pick a new friend for her 6th birthday on Nov 1st, and it was a wonderful experience! Thank you to Soren Allen and Jason for making our daughter feel special while there was a birthday party going on and typical Saturday crowds! She loves her new friend!”

“Nice people work here. I shop here because it is easy to get to for me. Amazing prices. The toy section could have a better selection, but it was still a nice selection for all ages. School supplies, cleaning supplies, a quick TV dinner and a few more for the deep freezer?. Cups, plates, cutlery, party stuff, candy, you name it they have it in some form. These places really are great. So what if the product isn't always the greatest? Remember, you paid a dollar and some change for it. At least you still got something right? Anyways, rant over. Great places, nice workers, you should definitely check them out if you are in the area!”
“The place was very clean and well-organized.. The customer service was very nice and helpful. The cashier (I think her name was Parsley or something like that) was very helpful in showing me how to use the self-checkout. If I could give any suggestions, it would be to price out the wireless earbuds in the five beyond section as they had no price listed, but I understand that it was opening day for them so they may not have gotten to everything yet. This is the place you can go to when you feel like shopping just for fun. A great place to take kids shopping as most items are five dollars or less. Overall a great experience and I would recommend taking a ride up and seeing what you can get for five dollars or less.”
