I left Connecticut about 3 1/2 years ago and this store was much smaller and on the second story,…read morewell my friend took me back here on Saturday and I was completely blown away. This massive expansion gives this place a huge wall of Funko Pop's, areas for board games, magic the gathering, WWE, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Star Wars, and pretty much every single kind of toy (or collectibles as I like to refer to them) you could be looking for. What impressed me the most about this store was how nearly it was organized and how easy it was to track down whatever you were looking for, and even though I didn't talk to any of the staff, I could see them helping people out and answering questions with smiles on their faces Simply put, the world needs more toy stores like this. The selection is insane, the staff is great, and this is the type of store you can kill an hour in without even realizing. Check it out.

They aren't the run of the mill kind of toys that you can easily find in Target or Walmart. You can tell that these items are thoughtfully curated for this shop. Both my husband and I were filled with wonder as we kept saying, "Ooo look at this!" "Look at that!" "I've never seen this before!" We walked around with my 5 month old, and although the store was filled with beautiful items- I didn't think we'd find anything worth buying for him just yet. Well, I was very wrong. The store owner was absolutely wonderful to chat with, and she kept making the most perfect suggestions for us. We ended up buying 5 items that we were giddy with excitement about. We had such a great time, I forgot to even take pictures! If you're looking for unique toys in a "mom and pop" shop feel- look no further than Toy Soldier!

I'll absolutely be back to Sarge's!

We wanted to pick up a few odds and ends to send to the grands for their Valentine's Day box, and we ended up staying for close to an hour because Pinwheels had us in a trance. They have all the traditional things, including a full height wall of Barbies and accessories, plus a crazy amount of stuffed animals, dolls, craft kits, toy tucks, Pokemon stuff, sports cards, Legos, slimes, Squishmallows, Jellycats, and things I never heard of but must be super popular. They have a lot of these teeny tiny miniature collectibles that are a big hit with the "Under Ten" crowd. They also have a discount section with reduced pricing. If you're in the market to pick up something for the children in your world, you can't go wrong here at all.

I visited Remy's this summer when my son's bike needed a repair while we were on vacation. I didn't…read morehave an appointment, but they offered to take a look right away because I thought it would be a quick and easy fix. It turned out to be much more complicated than I realized, but they still took the time to repair the bike while I waited so my son could get back on it that afternoon. We don't live in the area and hadn't purchased the bike from Remy's, so they certainly didn't have to go out of their way for us. The fact that they did meant so much. A broken bike might seem like a small thing, but when you're a kid on summer vacation, it can ruin your whole week! Even more importantly, while working on the bike they discovered a significant safety issue related to some DIY work we had attempted at home. Their thoroughness and attention to detail may very well have prevented a serious accident or injury. I'm incredibly grateful that they didn't just fix the immediate problem--they took the time to make sure the bike was truly safe. Everyone we dealt with was kind, knowledgeable, thorough, and incredibly helpful. One other takeaway from this experience: buy your bike from a great local bike shop! We live in New Hampshire and had purchased my son's bike online. If I had it to do over again, I would absolutely buy local. Having knowledgeable people you can turn to for ongoing service, maintenance, and advice is worth so much--and Remy's has a great selection. I can't recommend Remy's highly enough. They turned what could have been a really disappointing (and potentially dangerous) situation into such a positive experience. Thank you!

It gets periodic and professional tune ups, and they're always a pleasure to deal with. Always a pleasant exchange. This is the exceptional part. I have a friend who is homeless, and I found a "beater bike" to give to him. I brought it to Remy's, and we all decided it was too far gone to resurrect. The guys looked at each other, smiled, and one of them went in the back and wheeled out a pretty decent bike that was made serviceable rather easily. They gave this to me for my homeless friend! He loved it, jumped right on it with a huge smile on his face, and I know we helped Improve the quality of life for someone down on their luck. This is the kind of people that you deal with at Remy's! That means a lot to me. I'm glad to be their customer.
