“I have been a customer for over 40 years. The selection in all scales is great. I model N-scale and often find just what I need/want here.
No place else in Philly offers the combination of product and service.
My go-to store”
“Busy Bee Toys is such a fun stop in Doylestown, especially if you’re shopping for little ones. They have an amazing selection of toys, and their Jellycat collection is the best—so many adorable choices you don’t always see everywhere else. It’s one of those stores where you can actually take your time, find something meaningful, and feel good about shopping local. A must-visit when you need a great gift.”
“Amazing store with a huge selection of fun and nerdy stuff! Comics, books, mini figs, paints, dice, cards, collectibles, truly a hidden haven in the heart of Doylestown. Saved the day for this DM by having an extensive collection of dice! Thank you for making my party's day ?”
“I started collecting comics about a year ago and this has been my home store the whole time and what can I say but There is no store from Philly to Florida that will make you feel as welcome as comic zen in lansdale. I seriously can not endorse this store hard enough praise!”
“I Love Trains and I Love this store! Great people and Always willing to help. My son had a Book Nook puzzle and it had a little light with two wires connected to it. It was a Wednesday 5 minutes to 6 (when they close), didn't know they closed at that time. When I walked in, I asked if they could help me solder it back or if they have other lights that might work. They did and had Both! Soldered it together right then and showed me new lights. I was So Happy with their help even though they were closing. Fantastic Place! They are going to help me set up a G-Scale set in my backyard when all this Frozen white stuff is gone. Can't wait! Great People and Store. Highly Recommend!”

“Very lovely store. You don't really see toy stores anymore with nice, quality toys. It is a bit pricey though. $17 for a little Bluey plush that is the exact same at Walmart for $10. But given the area, I can understand.”
“Great experience- I disagree with the negative people here and believe they must have some other issues. Owner works hard, it’s not an easy job to accommodate everyone. Keep up the good work”
“I have been shopping here for decades. The perfect place to find a baby gift. The service is incredible every time. The wrapping makes your gift look beautiful when presenting it to the recipient. The boutique is cozy and well organized. Highly highly recommend.”
“I had a ton of fun exploring every corner of everything!! such a variety of cute things from around the early 2000s :)!! The cashier was so very nice and helped me and my friend go through the Littlest pet shop bin together! Also like crazy awesome prices! An all around awesome time !”

“Fantastic selection of soaps, scrubs, bath bombs and my favorite scented salts for the bath. A must visit each time I come to Peddler's Village. Great for gift items or to gift yourself.”

“My son and I went today to each buy a gift. The selection was amazing! The clothes were beautiful, and they also had a great selection of books and snuggly stuffed animals. Also, Dana did a great job of helping us! She was so sweet, knowledgeable and friendly. Now Swaddle is my go to store for anything children. MO”
“This train shop really impressed me!
I took my 2 year old in here a few weeks ago.
They have every train you can imagine- and is suitable for everyone from a train-obsessed 2 year old to an expert train collector.
I also loved that they have a lot more toy options besides trains.
Great place to bring young kids!”
“Whenever I travel outside of where I live and go someplace that I don't travel to very often or maybe someplace that I may never again, I like to find a comic book store in the general area that I'm visiting if I have the extra time. And B.N.W. was that spot. My luck it was conveniently just right around the corner from where I had to go in the 1st place. This place has it all. From comic books (of course) and collected editions, back issues to everything current that came out that week. They have some beautiful miniature (some not so mini) statues or busts of superheroes and/or villains, up to date and collectable card games (Magic, etc) and even some Funkos to throw in the mix. Really cool shop and the gentlemen behind the counter were helpful and very courteous as well. 100% recommend if you are in or near, the Willow Grove area. Its literally across the street from the mall too.”

“Party Center is a great one-stop shop with a wide variety of party supplies for any occasion. From decorations to themed accessories, they have just about everything you could need. I did find the prices to be a bit on the higher side, but considering the selection and convenience, it made sense. Overall, I was satisfied with my experience and would return when planning another event.”
“If you're a serial reconstructor like myself and need hard to find parts to complete your builds, are looking for a diverse selection of retired and hard to find sealed sets, or to expand your minifig collection - this is the shop to go to!
I highly recommend browsing their selection on bricklink if you need specific parts and placing an order prior to your visit. Every order of mine is fulfilled quickly and sometimes the same day. If you don't see something there, just ask! It's saved me some frustration countless times now.”
“Workers need better training, tired of being discriminated against when I walk in and I'm going to start calling the manger and giving names because I spend money, I'm afraid to steal. Okay so what I take my time and look at everything smell everything I wanna get the right shit stop making people feel uncomfortable to shop!!!!”
“My husband, our two teens and I visited here today while searching for a specific item. While we didn’t find exactly what we came for, we ended up discovering something even better... an absolute treasure trove of a store!
Every section is packed with interesting finds, and it’s the kind of place where you could easily spend hours browsing. From toys and comics to records and unique collectibles, there’s truly something for everyone, especially for fellow collectors.
We live just a couple of neighborhoods away (Cheltenham), and this has quickly become a new favorite spot for both me and my teens. We’re already looking forward to coming back regularly!
The owner was incredibly kind, helpful, and welcoming. He took the time to answer questions and made the whole experience enjoyable.
I was honestly surprised to see a few negative reviews. There are clearly posted signs asking customers to request assistance before handling certain items, which makes perfect sense given the nature of collectibles. It’s all about preserving these pieces, and that level of care is something I really respect.
Overall, a fantastic shop with a great atmosphere and a genuinely kind owner. Highly recommend visiting, especially if you appreciate collectibles!”
“Fabby-Do’s shop is a dream for children! I wish I lived in Doylestown when my kids were younger, they would have loved to celebrate their birthdays here. The owner is even more lovely.”
“Patricia was amazing, great customer service, even though she's working a double! You go girl! This place has a great variety and large selection. I definitely recommend stopping by here before you go anywhere else.”
“Besides the fact that when I was trying to cash out the worker was just sitting on the floor in front of the register instead of helping me try to figure it out. Yeah, it's just like any other five below. It was pretty organized and clean. Now I'll tell you that compared to the other ones. I would say that the people who work there don't necessarily care a lot about their jobs. I heard two people talk about how something was on the shelf and it wasn't ringing up or something like that so it shouldn't have been out there but somebody else said that it was it was just before so I don't know if he was going to take them all and try to resell them but that's what it sounded like. So I mean if you're going to have conversations like this or do whatever you're going to do, go ahead, but having them in front of of customers is probably not the best idea. Just my suggestion.”

“What a fantastic store. I was looking for something for my granddaughter and the owner of the store offered to help. She was wonderful. Really helped my find some meaningful gifts. Definitely plan on returning and sharing with friends and family.”
“Love the environment and the staff. The lady that helped build the bear kept my daughter entertained the entire time. I don't remember her name but she is a young lovely and friendly person!”
“The store has a good set of employees. They’re lax, but work well together from what I’ve seen and demonstrate teamwork & customer service. Two of them showed another customer true service and lent a sound ear to his concerns. DM should be proud.”
“Great customer service from "Marcus"! I have seen the less than stellar service others have described, but not from this guy! Great experience. Thanks!!”
“This shop is hidden gem at Valley Square.
I just discovered it by chance.
I was looking for a Christening outfit for a baby…a specialized item.
Not only did I find one here, but they have a big selection!
Highly recommend this Children’s boutique.”
