    Such a fun store!! So many nostalgic toys and even newer ones too! Everything is decently priced as well!

    10/10 a must visit! This shop is a great place to revisit your childhood nostalgia and time hop with your kids. If your into retro collecting this place has a little bit of everything for you!

    Merchandise of Super Mario Bros, Sanrio, and Goosebumps were the things that brought me back to my childhood. For Small Business Saturday I decided to check out downtown Kent. The window display of Retro Emporium was decorated with iconic Christmas pop culture movies such as The Christmas Story and Elf. It was super busy when I walked in. It's a great place to find gifts from the 80s and 90s. This shop was definitely a great find!

    I attended a tour and tasting at Maeve Chocolate and left impressed. The tasting featured six…read moredistinct chocolates -- everything from bright, fruity single-origin bars to richer, high-cacao pieces -- and while all were tasty, I generally preferred the darker, more complex offerings. The textures were clean and the flavor development in the dark bars (bitter-sweet, with subtle fruit and spice notes) stood out. The tour guide They were excellent, personable, clearly passionate, and very knowledgeable about bean sourcing, tempering, and flavor profiling. Their demos on conching and tempering made the process tangible without getting bogged down in jargon. Some history Maeve Chocolate's shift from the Seattle Chocolate name reflects a move to emphasize craft, single-origin sourcing, and a modern identity that better represents their focus on ethical sourcing and flavor-driven small-batch production. The new name and packaging celebrate provenance and the personalities behind the beans, while preserving the company's Seattle roots and commitment to quality. Highlights Six thoughtfully curated samples showcasing a range of cacao percentages and origins. Strong preference for the dark chocolate line -- nuanced, well-balanced, and memorable. Informative, engaging guide and a concise, behind-the-scenes look at production. Friendly tasting pace that allowed time to savor each piece and ask questions. If you appreciate chocolate craftsmanship and want a guided tasting that balances technique with flavor exploration, Maeve Chocolate's tour is worth it.

    Super friendly staff. They were super attentive and willing to answer any and every question I had…read more And they offered samples of multiple different chocolate bars. Very interesting and unique flavors. I went for the collaboration with Dungeon Crawler Carl, which was amazing. Not only was there a special chocolate bar that they had for the collab but they also had a corner decorated in the theme of the book and stickers of characters from the book. It was fantastic. Parking is pretty easy in this area. There is some parallel parking by the front door and a parking lot nearby. I'll definitely have to come back for a tour.
