I used to love coming here for birthday presents and toys for my children. The problem is since the…read morenew owner has taken over, there is a definite strange vibe in the store. The staff is mostly pleasant but store over all has an unwelcoming presence . Hoping the new owner will take note. One instance In particular I was made to feel very uncomfortable When I wanted points added for my purchase. The person ringing me up acted as if I was asking for something that I wasn't entitled to. Basically Since their computers were down she acted as if I was a nuisance.

This is, in my mind, exactly what a beach town store should be like. DIY / repair hardware, tools,…read morebeach-themed household goods and decorations, toys, beach equipment, and more. Walking in here, you can tell it's not like other stores and you can just feel the beachy, summer vibes. Maybe that's just because of the associations I feel between this store and summer vacation, or maybe it's just because that's what this place is all about. It's a bit more expensive than some other stores, but you're 100% paying for convenience. It's one block from the beach and located right in the heart of Lavallette. In my opinion, it's a great place to have in the neighborhood.

Couldnt say hello? Good Morning? Then when others came in immediately afterward he was all chirpy and happy. Forget you - if you dont even have the common courtesy towards all that enter your store. Seriously- Thank you whoever you were for making us NOT want to spend a dime in your store! Work on your manners.

Love, Love, Love This Little Gem of a Bookstore! If you're…read moreanywhere near Manasquan, do yourself a favor and pop into this lovely little bookstore. I found books I absolutely love--some I discovered on my own and others that were personally recommended by the store's fabulous curator, and owner Peter. When I mentioned a book I had recently read and loved--Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow by Gabrielle Zevin--Peter immediately jumped up, went straight to the bottom shelf, and pointed it out. There was even a handwritten staff recommendation and summary attached to the book. Many of the books throughout the store have these thoughtful mini-reviews, which made browsing feel so personal and engaging. I love the overall vibe of this shop. The selection of gifts is just right: a charming mix of journals, candles, book-themed merchandise, and a few toys--including stuffed animals. I fell in love with a stuffed bear and now I'll have to go back because I didn't purchase him (regret!). If you have the time, I highly recommend setting some aside to slowly explore the shelves, stacks, and cozy nooks of this beautifully curated bookstore. It's an absolute delight

What really sets them apart, though, is their kindness. My son, who has special needs, needed help with a project, and the staff at Booktowne volunteered their time to work with him. They were so kind and patient--we'll never forget it. This is the kind of business our community needs. So stop clicking "Buy Now" on Amazon and head to Booktowne Manasquan instead. You'll walk out with something great and know your money is supporting a generous, caring local business.
