We did the Shibari class at the William Vale hotel for my wife's birthday. A good combination of fun and silly, Valentine was a great and encouraging instructor and the environment was very chill and not at all sleazy, which I was a bit worried about. Thoroughly recommended! read more

I love the toy it's amazing and I would love to come back to buy more stuff and I will definitely recommend this store 100%

I think I could live in this store. Oddly enough, I used to actually live mere steps from here, but moved right before they opened.. I can't deny this is probably a good thing (for me, that is, not for Shag) as I no doubt would have spent far too much money on all kinds of lovely accoutrements found here. I can't think of another store quite like this! Their eclectic offerings mean for finds and the environs? Think Victorian bordello chic. I spied with my little shopping eye: -delicious body products that smell divine...the kind of stuff I haven't seen anywhere else (fig body oil, anyone?) -beautiful vintagey hair fasteners made by local designers -exquisite lingerie that will make you weep, most of it made by indie designers -saucy novelties that aren't totally embarrassing (no cringe- worthy hen party stuff, though if you must suffer one of these shindigs, you could do FAR worse than shopping here). -all kinds of unique jewelery, many involving feathers (as in plumes, not hippy dippy shit) -Sin in Linen sheets -fancy paper products Talk about the right place to buy that friend of yours the Christmas gift she never expect. read more

First of all, I'll say up front that I'm biased. I've done a photo shoot, performance art (casting) at Shag and also taught 4 erotica classes. But I think I can safely say that I'm also a big fan and frequent customer. I love that they combine art, jewelry, lingerie, greeting cards and high-quality sex toys, along with workshops. Save for the sex toys, the products in the store aren't ones I've seen elsewhere, and most of them are made by local artists. I got a dual ring (goes around two fingers) by FancySexyMe, a pillow that says Love, a wacky greeting card, bought my boyfriend a pair of underwear by Junk Drawers made from recycled t-shirts, and have also purchased a gorgeous black and gold necklace and earrings, and even bought a penis cookie. The prices are affordable and everything I've gotten is both high-quality and unique. I like that there's constantly new items being added to the store and that they credit each designer so you can look them up and see what they're about. It's a quirky, fun shop that lives up to its name. Make sure you check out the ultra-luxurious rug in the dressing room too! read more

Shag - Adult Shops Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

I love stumbling on cool stores and then absolutely loving it! I was grabbing a quick cuppa across the street when this store caught my eye. What a cute little find. They have all things sexy here, so loads of fun! You'll find nipple tassels and corsets and teddies here and vintage-like bras and panties. All kinds of oils, perfumes, and soaps here. They also sell bathing suits (now 30% off). Ahem, also pleasure toys too and lots and lots of boas and feathers. This place is like Babeland but with a burlesque twist to it. Absolutely love it! Would love to come back for some store events! read more

Cute shop! Full of sexy things... like hand dyed lingerie and artist-made cards, prints, hats, soaps... all with an erotic flair. I was tickled! Sex toys too. Plus they are nice people. They answer my questions honestly and with no judgement. Smart, creative little boutique. read more

Shag - Super cool remote control toy! - Adult Shops Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

This is an update to my earlier review I had a product stop working After a bit of a runaround between Sam and the makers of the product, we brought it back to Sam and got an exchange The new one was wrapped and bagged so prettily as if I was just buying it for the first time. I was surprised and touched. Really great customer service! read more

This place is sexy and cute and makes all those inappropriate things feel appropriate by being so damn cute. They also sell great greeting cards, who knew? So if you'd like to be witty, original and basically the center of all your friend's envy shop at Shag for the best gifts. On a more direct note about their core business I don't think I've ever once had a conversation about a sex toy with a store employee, why? Um. Awkward. At Shag however after rounding the section about 5 times I decided to ask a few questions, and I'm happy I did. She let us know she personally tries each product so can really speak from first hand experience. Some are rechargeable, some have more than one function, some have USB thumbnail chargers, some are funny shapes and some are remote control! Wow. Mind officially blown. They sell vegan condoms too, so if you're concerned about animals while you're in the process of love making Shag can help you out with that too. Get animalistic while being animal friendly. Damn girl you fancy. read more

A sex shop that could only be conceived in Williamsburg. Indie, locally made erotica? Check. Vintage-inspired crafts? Check. iPod compatible vibrators? Double check. read more

This is such a great store! I've been to three similar shops recently and this was the one where I felt most comfortable. There were options within my price range, as a student, and many fun things (books, art, candles, games, lollipops) as well as lingerie and toys. It had a great selection of different things and I was finally able to get what I've been looking for! The store had lots of little helpful labels which made me feel comfortable in selecting products -- ie if you don't see your size ask and we'll find it for you. :) The woman behind the register was super helpful and nice -- when I went up to the register she helped me download an app which gave me 50% off my purchase!! I'm definitely coming back in the future. Thank you so much for providing such an awesome and comfortable experience. read more

I hope this review can serve as a warning for others. Shag is not worth the money and takes advantage of their customers. I have never been so angry at an establishment for blatantly ripping off customers. Save yourselves the disappointment and do not book an event at Shag. I recently attended a bachelorette event at Shag - "Sex Trivia." The back room where the event was held was not air conditioned. The "host" simply read questions off of her phone (not joking) and tallied up team point on a dry erase board. that's it. We wrote our responses on a blank piece of paper. It seemed like this event was thrown together in 10 minutes and is definitely not worth paying for. Even though we were told by Shag that "sex trivia" would last 2 hours, we were rushed through the questions despite asking the host to slow down. We were in and out in less than an hour. How much did this cost? OVER $400. read more

Great experience here. Lola was amazing and really helped my friend and I out with our questions and needs. Will come back here for all my future needs. Also, everyone needs a Lola in their life- so positive and kind! read more

A huge shout out to the folks at Shag for hosting an amazing bachelorette workshop :)) Elizabeth even gave us local tips on the best bars to check out in the neighborhood! Another bonus: the variety of vegan products at Shag xoxo Would highly recommend these guys for all your bachelorette and everyday sexual needs :) read more

Horrible place. Tried to exchange or return a gift that was bought for me the day before on VDAY. It was still in her wrapping paper and bow, and she claimed that was one of the only items that was not available for any sorts of exchange or return. Other items were a possibility, or even if it was defective. I should of dropped the wrapped gift from the balcony and then see what she would of considered defective. Even the people in the store left because they saw how upset I was. I never even opened the gift and she was watching me get tears in my eyes with no remorse. I understand she has a crappy return policy. Even Babeland lets you return or exchange if its UNOPENED. Never again will I shop here and I have told everyone else to shop at Babeland where its much more convenient and friendly. $125 in the trash. read more

Bought an item 2 days ago that was defective. Literally, the batteries that came in the toy, plus the additional ones included would not work in it. Brought in the original receipt, packaging, and product to show that I had literally just opened it and it was defective out of the package and was told "we don't do returns or exchanges." It was literally a defective product that I was sold! Ripped off! Poor customer service. Will not be shopping here again. read more

Came here when I visited Brooklyn for a travel blogging trip. The sales girl was incredibly sweet! I had a blast and spent way too much time in the shop loaded with sex toys, erotica, lingerie, and sensual soaps, oils, as well as books and jewelry. It's just so massively creative! I bought a few lingerie pieces & some stockings with no regrets! read more

Classy little spot with some interesting/unique lingerie. The variety of "accessories" are limited but they do have quality items, including bdsm stuff. Prices were good. The shop owners are very friendly, helpful, and knowledgable. read more

A wonderful shop doing some wonderful things. I got to work with them on a current tour through NYC and the staff was perfect. Support this place! read more

I really wanted to like this spot since it's in my neighborhood. It was the interaction I had with the gal at the register that ruined it for me. She acted like a know-it-all and was very opinionated about the products. This wouldn't be a problem normally, except for the fact I work in this industry (I'm a sexologist), and she was bad mouthing a brand that is female-founded by one of my close friends, calling it cheap. If it's cheap, then why are you selling it in your store? It's great when someone is sex-positive and open, but isn't it ironic when they try to push their opinions on you, as if they know your body better than you do? It was also the way she did it. Very condescending. If she only knew who she was talking to! Hopefully she orgasms that attitude out of her system, for the sake of other customers!!! read more

I took a couples massage class here the day after valentine's day. It was an amazing experience that I highly recommend. The class was very informative and relaxing. My boyfriend and I arrived 30min late because of subway delays, but both the shop owner and class teacher were able to fit us in and even extended the class time! Definitely great people. The decor of the shop is cute and it has a bunch of cute jewelry and candles in addition to sex toys. We purchased a candle that was made from soy and had a cute message written on it. I don't come out to Brooklyn very often, but this was worth the trip! read more

This is a wonderful, intimate, female-owned and sex-positive sex shop. The owner, Sam, personally offered impeccable customer service when I had an issue with something I bought around Christmas time. It has a small-shop feel and I felt well taken care of. Would recommend the shop to anyone. read more

This place is so unique and special. Was in Brooklyn, looking for a fun gift for my GF. While searching shops online. I noticed that most of the reviews for Shag are from women (and +). So I thought, this must be best place to find something for her. My GF is pretty discerning. I LOVED that the staff were so easy going, helpful and discreet. I now understand why they say Shag is a "Sexy Shop". Turned out the staff knew exactly what I needed. Happy wife happy life! read more

This place is definitely incognito lol. I totally thought this was a thrift store until me and my partner broke our cock ring. I desperately searched for the nearest sex store to replace it and I graciously found Shag. 5 minutes away, they were a lifesaver. I will definitely be back for the vagina doorknob. read more

Shag is one of my favorite places. Sam is so great and helpful. They've got the best soaps out of any store I've seen. All of them are handmade, organic and wonderful for my sensitive skin. The prices are perfect too. They have such a great collection of all kinds of fun stuff. I know most who shop at Shag wouldn't go there for soaps or skin care...but trust me, make sure you check out the skin care corner. Sam really knows her stuff when it comes to finding the best there is! read more

Shag is definitely more than just an "adult" store. In fact, it feels like a cute little arts and crafts store that just happens to have some adult-themed crafts. They have some really neat wire-and-stone rings that I love, and I bought myself an adorable green wallet with a black peacock stamped on the front. My friend bought a cute bracelet for his sister that has a bunch of book-shaped lockets around the edge that can hold tiny photos. Don't let the "adult" label scare you away. Yes, there is a tasteful section of interesting and unusual erotica, but the unique jewelry and crafts are also absolutely worth a look. read more

Really fun store. Employees are very sweet and they have great soap!!! Bought some pasties here and can't wait to try them on ;)

Boutique adult shop full of random sexy items from toys, lingerie, candles, jewelry, home decor. Like all other boutique shops in Williamsburg, the selection is limited, but I'm sure you'll find some little adorable thing here you might like. read more

Have been meaning to write a review for a while. Although the store is cute to browse, I find the owner a tad surly. I went in here last month and bought a change purse on sale on impulse and the next day decided I didn't really love it or need it. In the spirit of making cutbacks where I can, I went in to return it. I was unapologetically told that Shag does not process returns; only exchanges. I find it obnoxious I wasn't made aware of that when making the purchase. It's also not written on the receipt. I get that it's a small business, but money is money to any customer and I think it's wrong to have a restrictive policy like that and not make it clear. read more

You hot in the biscuit? You slacking in the bedroom? This place is dynamite. Excellent helpful employees. Tons of fun gear.

Really fun store, girl at the register was super informed and helpful, even told us about an app to download that would give us a coupon! Would 100% recommend and we'll be back again! read more

I've been to Shag multiple times. They are so friendly and accommodating, and they throw some amazing parties and events. Whether you live here or you're just visiting, I think this is one place everyone needs to stop by, even if it's just to say hello to the lovely owners. read more

This place made me so comfortable to be in as soon as I walked in., The sales lady help me make a great choice on a item i bought and i was so happy. WHAT A NICE DOG. I truly recommend this place to every couple who's on the wild side. read more

This is a fantastic shop with just the right mix of gifts, sexy goodies, warmth, and fun. Their workshops and art installations are stellar, giving Shag a completely well-rounded boutique flair. Highly recommended! read more

This place is fantastic. Lots of fun for adults. Classy, not cheesy. Sam and Ash change up the inventory. A place full of adult toys and tchachkes, it's also where I get my aftershave (which is brilliant). Love this place, the Sam and Ash. read more

Over all this store is great. Besides having excellent quality toys they have a wide selection of unique jewelry, accessories, paintings, etc. Giving it 3 stars only due to a lack of customer service. Knowing there are no returns, I felt they should have warned us about an item looking completely different when not used as a set before we purchased. I guess we'll exchange it for now. read more

We recently planned our friend's bachelorette party in Shag's private room in the back of their store. This was a first time experience for us with Shag though friends who live in Brooklyn visit the store and class offerings often, and have nothing but rave reviews. In regards to the Bachelorette Party they helped us coordinate, it was magnificent. We were in contact with Shag prior to the event to begin planning and discussing what we wanted to do during our time in the room. They were incredibly accommodating, flexible, responsive, helpful, I could go on forever. On the day of the event Shag allowed us to come early to decorate and put food out. Our instructor, CJ, gave us a class offering based on the crowd's interest and she was remarkable. CJ had to put up with a lot of wine induced ladies, which she handled perfectly. We learned a ton, received lovely gift bags, were able to bring in our own food and drinks, decorate the room, and enjoy the festivities at our own pace. At the end of the night we went over on time and Shag could not have been more accommodating; they went above and beyond for our group. I have planned quite a few bachelorette parties before and this is literally the best way to celebrate and the best venue/store to do so with! Highly recommend to anyone looking to plan a celebration, bachelor/bachelorette party, or fun night out with a larger group of friends! We love Shag! read more

I love love love this place, everything you need for adulting the fun way. The people behind the counter are super friendly and knowledgeable, I wish every establishment were run like this, I mean for a sexy shop it's quite homey and inviting. read more

This community-minded erotic item store has things you won't find anywhere else! Books, clothing, kinky gadgets, jewelry, doorknobs, crystals, pillows, cards, tons of cool erotic art, and so much more. On party nights, they have the cleverest and most creative acts you could think of. It's all a result of the hard work the gorgeous owners, Sam and Ash, put into the store. They know their business. They know what we like. They know how to please. read more
