See all

This was a really fun experience for my kids. The staff was friendly and helpful. They had so many animals to choose from which was great but also made picking just one hard because we liked them all. Checking out ran a little long because there was only one cashier available and a long line because of a party. Definitely a fun experience for kids. read more

Drove two hours for my daughter's birthday only to find they decided to close at 1:30 that day! Highly disappointing! Thanks for nothing! Also, the mall looks crusty, old, and vacant! We will never come back here again! I hope we don't need a tetanus shot now! read more

This is the first time I have been to a build a bear in my life. We called and asked if they had any oogie boogie left and if there was any recorder left. Ethan was awesome and he saved a recorder and a oogie boogie for us to record my soon to be sons heart beat in the oogie boogie and it came out perfect i will be coming back to this location every year for my son. You're location is the best and Ethan you are the best. Ten out of ten read more

My daughter had a daycare event here and she had a great time building a bear. They have a lot of build options and a ton of cute outfits to choose from. The store was extremely crowded, which I can imagine is expected on a Saturday afternoon. Since we were there for an event, we didn't have to wait in long lines. They had someone dedicated to us, which was nice. The lines for the other customers however were extremely long. Ones I would not wait in. They only had one cashier but they had multiple registers and I noticed some employees just standing around. They need to strategize on how to use each employee to their fullest to get those lines moving quicker. My daughter and I were unable to fully look around to pick out outfits because there were too many people weaved in and out of the aisles. It hindered out experience but we made the best of it. read more

Build-A-Bear Workshop - Toy Stores Near Me - Omaha, Nebraska

We went on a Saturday evening, around 5pm. No line what's so ever. Greeted promptly, and asked if we were there for an occasion, and indeed we were there as an early birthday present for a soon to be 3 year old. The staff gave us a birthday crown and sticker and informed us of their birthday bear special deal. They made her feel very special for her birthday. The staff was very patient during the 20 min it took us to pick out the perfect animal, ultimately a unicorn was decided on. The stuffing station took most of our time because the animal was dirty at first so she had us get a new one and then it wouldn't sew up correctly so we waited for a quite a while but we appreciated that our unicorn was clean and sewed up so it wouldn't come open. They offered us a "beating heart" and scents and sounds you can put inside the animal for a small additional cost. On to the "bath" station, and then to pick out an outfit. We made a "birth certificate" and checked out. The staff was very friendly and helpful during our entire time in the store, and we were there for almost an hour. Our total came to approximately $50 but it would be extremely easy to spend way more, fortunately for me, the 3 year old was very picky about what she wanted for her unicorn and we left with only a skirt, and a brush, with the animal. They also re-sewed it at the check out counter because they noticed a small hole in the opening, which again we appreciated so it wouldn't come open. Pretty expensive unicorn, but for a special occasion and the joy she is getting from her new best friend is worth it. read more

I took my 4 year old daughter here for a fun little mommy and me date and she thought it was the greatest thing ever. She loved how the staff helped her in making the bear and picking out the fun accessories. She loved getting to make a wish and put the bears heart in. The store was clean and well organized and the staff was so kind and sweet with the kids. read more

My friend and I went as a throw back kinda hangout! I got a Jasmine bear that was on sale and she got a Pink Cuddly one or something! The ladies working were absolutly great about asking us if we needed help. The Gal that stuffed ours was super sweet and very personable as we talked about Disney themed bears since mine was and I'm obsessed with Disney! Even though my friend and are almost 20 she still kept the environment fun and magical! Going to pick out clothes, everything was well organized and sorted which was great! At check out we had a different cashier and they were super great about explaining future deals and promotions in a non forceful way. Overall super cheery crew for a Friday night haha read more

I have literally been waiting in line for 40 minutes. In that time, 4 children have received bears. There are still 8 children ahead of us in line. There has to be a better way. Oh they JUST opened the second station. Seriously. read more

The line was very long but what do you expect when it is just after Christmas. Plus, the gentleman stuffing bears was so good with kids.
