    Great independent toy store with a unique selection and friendly staff. The only detraction to this place is having to drive in Portsmouth!

    Also very nice that there is a bathroom and a play space in the back (and A/C).

    I was shopping at the outlet stores in Maine this past week and I noticed this store and saw that…read moreit sells calendars. So I went inside to see what they had since I will be needing a new calendar once the year is over and I figured why not get one right then and there while I happened to be at a store that sells them. They had a pretty good sized selection of calendars and some of them had a sticker on them with a special price. They have all sorts of different themed calendars. I saw ones with actors on them and others with flowers, cats, dogs, sunsets, television shows and much more. I chose a calendar that has photos of flower gardens. The photos on the calendar are beautiful and I lucked out because the calendar I picked happened to be one of the specially priced ones. After I made my selection I looked around the store for a few minutes. I saw other items such as jigsaw puzzles, toys for kids and board games for kids and adults alike. When I went to pay for my calendar the guy working at the cash register was very friendly and was a pleasure to deal with. I am glad I decided to stop by!

    Selection- 5/5 Value- 4/5…read more Service- HORRIBLE 1/5 The selection was perfect! full of fun toys and games and calendars, as said in the name, Calendars, Toys, and Games.Value was neutral. But the service was just eww! I had a game picked out for my friend's B-Day, sure she would love it. I walked to the counter, ready to check out, when I noticed there was no one there. At first, I was not in a rush. 30 minutes until the B-Day party, and I thought it wouldn't take very long. But oh boy, was I wrong! 20 minutes later, NO ONE! I waited 5 more minutes. Still. I needed a present. The party was in 5 minutes! I just left, and I ran to a nearby candy store, Yummie's Candy And Nuts and grabbed candy. I thank Yummie's, while I am mad at Calendars, Toys, and Games. I would totally recommend it, but past events have left me wondering why this is rated 5 stars by most. I don't believe it. Other people clearly have had a better time than me. Review from Matthew Joe W. Has me puzzled. "Friendly gentleman behind the counter willing to assist us." Like WHAT?! I take it back. I don't recommend this toy store. Never going back in my life.

    If Gus & Ruby Letterpress' high-quality products could be paired with high-quality customer…read moreservice, they would be great. Unfortunately, their poor customer service makes working with Gus & Ruby Letterpress frustrating and disappointing. We worked with Gus & Ruby Letterpress to create an invitation suite and day-of stationery for a formal wedding in Boston. It started out great with an initial meeting in the store. We looked through samples, felt the quality of the paper, and left with exciting ideas for the invitations. Little did we know this would be our last in person meeting, and that even reaching a live person on the phone would be extremely difficult as we moved forward. After our first meeting we submitted ideas and details for the first draft of the wedding suite. Then we waited 14 business days for a first proof. The proof was completely off the mark. The designers at Gus & Ruby Letterpress did not seem to read what we had asked for. For example, one envelope liner option contained fall-colored abstract daisies for a spring formal wedding. We tried to convey our ideas as clearly as possible but the communication channel from us, to our salesperson, to the design team, played out like a game of telephone with a tin can and a string. The message did not get through. After several weeks of revisions, we eventually arrived at a beautiful invitation suite that fit our vision. If communication had been better, we would have reached the final product a lot sooner. During this whole process we never felt like we were a priority, a valued customer, and we often felt dismissed. We continued to work with Gus & Ruby Letterpress for our day-of stationery because there was not time to search out a new stationer and because their products are high-quality. However, it was frustrating to only communicate through email. Our concerns never seemed to be acknowledged by our salesperson. No human ever answered the phone at Gus & Ruby Letterpress. Our overall experience with Gus & Ruby Letterpress fell far short of what we expected from a high-end, custom stationer. I cannot recommend them.

    Wandering around Portsmouth after lunch, my friend and I wandered into this store because she loves…read moreall things print-related. Me, not so much unless I'm in need of something, but I tagged along. So glad I did! This is a cute little store with lots of things to catch the eye. Not just the obvious--print services, cards, stationery, etc.--but also things like recyclable bags and other gifty items. I walked out of there with a small size (there was a large variety of bags for different uses) Baggu reclyclable bag I can fold up and pop into my purse for use when I need it. Handy for carrying leftovers from restaurants, quick trips to CVS/Walgreens or other places where you just want a couple of things. In fact it would have been handy for my trip to Gus & Ruby! Next time......
