I've been here 4 times now after moving from my previous Toyota mechanic (who had started becoming less reliable and a little suspicious). He's corrected emergency repairs from another shop - working with me by phone before I brought the car in. His recommendations and prices have so far always been within expected ranges. The only things I'd call out for attention are: - invoices you get outline repairs done and work/charges, but don't have detail on, e.g. brake measurements, fluid levels before topping off, etc. - they don't include brake inspections by default, at least for maintenance visits I've done. I've had to ask them to check each time. Good mechanics that you can implicitly trust are hard to find. I don't have that yet fully given I've only been here a few times so far, but I've got a good feeling and good results so far. read more

I can't thank the team at The Toy Shop enough! I had a very weird and sporadic issue with my ABS brakes going off randomly in my Rav4 while driving which was incredibly scary and dangerous. It would cause the car to think it was slipping and brake out of nowhere. This was also so hard to diagnose because it would be miles and miles before it would happen and be undrivable until turning the car off and on. Amy and Greg went WAY above and beyond and took the time to diagnose the car and kept it with them until they could have the issue happen again. Most other shops would never have done this and simply would have dismissed it until I could show them the issue first hand. I am so very grateful they took the time to help find and fix the issue and highly recommend them to everyone! They have a new life long customer and my family and I will never go anywhere else. Thank you so much again! read more

The Toy Shop - The ABS going off randomly while driving. - Auto Repair Near Me - Denver, Colorado

See all

I have been using the Toy Shop for years for 2 different vehicles. They first helped me with my 07 4Runner and I appreciated the fair pricing and how it didn't feel like they tried to sell me. There were times where they said they recommended that I wait for a repair and we scheduled a further appointment so that I didn't waste money. That definitely builds trust with a customer. So it was a no-brainer to return with my 14 4Runner and they just replaced a front strut, front rotors and all brake pads this week. Always easy doing business with them and very friendly team. I always drop my car off the night before because you can safely drop your keys and there are good lights/security cameras. Highly recommend this business for anyone with a Toyota! read more

Very unfortunate to see the decline in customer service and quality at this shop. I went in for a full service and they did not balance the tires after rotating. One of the mechanics was extremely unprofessional and quite frankly a loser with a terrible attitude. Lacking all accountability. I do not recommend this place to anyone unless you want to pay $180 per hour for unqualified labor. read more

I have a 1988 toyota pickup 4x4 The Toy Shop has been maintaining it since 1990. The truck is still going strong. Need I say more?

These guys are great and I'm glad I found them. I had a weird windshield wiper issue right before a snowstorm and they were able to see me just beforehand and fix it in a couple minutes. Very friendly and helpful and we will definitely be back. Thanks again, Greg! read more

Thank you Greg! Much respect. Had my GTR in for gearbox service and repair. Yes, will do business again you should too. read more

The Toy Shop - Auto Repair Near Me - Denver, Colorado

The only place I trust to bring my Toyota in Denver. I've tried a couple of other shops in the area. Either they try to upsell you on everything or they don't know what they're talking about. Greg is an honest businessman and always shoots straight. It's always a bit scary going to the mechanic as a woman cause you're not sure if you're going to get worked over, but I don't have that problem here. read more

The Toy Shop is THE BEST place to take your Toyota too. I have had Toyotas for my whole life and taken my cars to Greg at the Toy Shop for the LAST 30 years for manufacturer recommended maintenance, brakes and the very occasional fix. The Toy shop has without any exception been timely, professional, helpful and great vibe to work with. The prices have always been every time reasonable. It's been great to have a mechanic shop you know is there AND you can trust. I would recommend them highly. But if everybody knows, and secret gets out about the best place around, then I would be happy. I'll share. Just joking! But, one last thing, it's conveniently located close to Broadway and Santa Fe/ Cherokee St. They have gone above and beyond numerous times making it work with my busy schedule. read more

Don't even get me started... or in a fender bender as I'm writing this review in I-25 traffic omw home from another amazing experience at the Toy Shop. Since they don't do body work, I best not hit the car ahead of me as I sing this shop all the praises. Saying the service Greg provides is great, frankly does him no justice. He's a legend. I've had two cars worked on by Greg, and am convinced he is the master of all toys. He's fast, efficient and trustworthy. Don't hesitate to get your toy into this shop, kids!! read more

Super knowledgeable Toyota in Lexus specialist. The owner is a stand-up guy and will guide you in the right direction. I consider them one of the most trustworthy shops in the Metro area. read more

Fast turnaround, reasonable estimates, and quality work. I'd trust them with any issues on my 98 4Runner. I had them perform a timing belt replacement. The technician went above and beyond to ensure all parts were installed properly. I went here for an inspection before I sold the car and they did a thorough job and the report was clear and prices werevery reasonable! read more

Just like everyone else, I have nothing but praise for Greg and the Toy Shop. He even took the time to advise me on purchasing an older Prius. He sold me a new battery for the same price I would have paid at Auto Zone. High quality, honest service. read more

I started coming to the Toy Shop late last year. I have a 2003 Sequoia bought new with 50 miles. I now have 365,000 and still going strong. Greg and Leroy replaced the timing belt and water pump of course with OME parts. This was my 3rd timing belt replacement and I'm totally satisfied with their work, warranty, and friendliness of their conversations on the phone and in person. Happy to be a customer and look forward to passing the 400,000 mark with this Toy Shop!​ read more

The Toy Shop - My sequoia - Auto Repair Near Me - Denver, Colorado

The service performed was done quickly and at a reasonable price. Great communication with me on the repair and cost.

went in for an oil change. They estimated 2 hours but finished in 1. Quick. No bull.

The best Toyota Shop in Denver, honest, experienced, educational, use Only quality replacement parts, guarantee the work they perform. What else could ask for to maintain your Toyota? read more

My 4-Runner dashboard was lit up like a Christmas Tree. Took it to The Toy Shop (based on Yelp Reviews) and they diagnosed the issue quickly and I had it back the same day. Friendly, responsive and great value. I would definitely use them again. read more

I THOUGHT this was a good place to bring our Lexus and Toyota. My husband was not taken care of at all. He waited and worked there all day in preparation for a very long road trip with a rescued senior Great Dane. Most of what they said was done was not done at all!! In addition, they should have caught the major issues with our truck. We trusted this place to make sure our vehicle was safe for a long distance trip. They did not do what they said they did. We were almost in a really bad accident due to our trusting that they conducted proper diagnostics and any necessary maintenance. I do not know what we paid for because the 4Runner was not properly diagnosed or repaired and we were stuck with a bill for over 1200.00. WOW! I could not believe it! CONSUMERS BEWARE! Do yourself a favor and FIND A TRUSTWORTHY Lexus - Toyota repair. THIS IS NOT THE PLACE!!! read more

I just used the Toyshop for the first time. I loved the experience. I emailed them one night with the work I needed done. I had a nice quote in my in box the early the next day. The price was 1/3 less than the dealer. We did most communication via email. When I picked up my truck it was clean and all work performed in a professional manner. They are my new Toyota shop. I drove 2 hours ti have the work done and could not be happier. Thanks Greg and team! read more

Wow! I'm a first-time customer and I am very impressed. The engine in my 10 year old Prius with 160k miles started making a horrible knocking noise on the way to work on Wednesday. My regular mechanic wouldn't even look at it. He said if the engine was knocking on that car I needed a new engine and to take it to the dealership or a Toyota specialist. I needed to find a shop that was close and knew what they were doing with a Toyota Hybrid. The Toy Shop came highly recommended and there's a reason. I called the shop and they were able to work me in that afternoon. Greg knew what it was immediately and I did not need a new engine, just a new water pump. Greg had the Prius ready to go in less than 24 hours with an oil change to boot! The prices are very reasonable and it's is great to be working with an expert Toyota specialist. read more

As of right now I give them 5 stars. I had a new Toyota factory fan belt put in my 1994 Toyota 4x2 (rear wheel drive) pickup. My old one was working - but squealing a lot at times and had a non-Toyota off market (NAPA/ORilely - Auto-parts) belt in it. This was a preemptive "repair" for me - it cost me $32 for the part and service. It's a super easy and fast thing to put in. This truck's engine is simple (22R-E). The service was great. The shop is small and could be called rough around the edges (which has it's advantages); but if you need a Toyota, Lexus and Scion specialist this is the place to go to in Denver. I would take future more complex jobs to them. The location is awkward (a little hard to find) - if you had to wait around for a repair there wouldn't be any place to go - walk to or take transit to. So if you have to leave your car over night - or all day - you'll have to arrange transportation. You can tell they know what they are doing and love Toyota's. For what it's worth - this is not a paid for post - this website seems to have a lot of those fake paid for posts. read more

I haven't even gotten my truck back yet, but already wanted to write a review. Greg's customer service has been incredible; I didn't know car-focused companies could be helpful and honest, anymore. If you're thinking about getting a Toyota or Lexus via private-party purchase, use Greg for your pre-inspection or just call him if you have questions, then bring it to him for anything it needs after purchase. I recently bought an '04 Tacoma from an acquaintance that ended up needing a lot of work. Through the whole process, Greg has been very responsive (always answers the phone) and speaks to me--who knows little about how cars run--in a friendly, down-to-earth manner. He offered to find used parts for some of the work needed to save me money, and walked me specifically through the repairs (including some that are costing less on the final estimate than he initially predicted) and pointing out where I could wait a few months on certain things to not have to spend so much up front. Dealing with anything related to cars makes me suspicious since, as a woman, I almost always feel taken advantage of, but not with The Toy Shop. I'm so glad I found them! He was also able to get me in just a few days after I called while my husband has to schedule oil changes at the dealer where he bought his Jeep three weeks in advance! And since I live out in Golden, I appreciate their location near the light rail and bike path. Can't wait to pick up my Tacoma and start taking it on adventures. read more

Greg and staff are amazing. I have taken both of my Scion Xb's here and am always pleased with the honest, well done work that they receive. I never hesitate to recommend this shop because it is the best for Toyotas in terms of time, service, and price. Best of all - they remember you and it's like having a mechanic in the family!! read more

I have found my forever auto shop! They are honest, great customer service, very fair priced, didn't try to add extras. Go there, you will not regret it. John read more

First off, I found the Toy Shop on Yelp and my experience with the them didn't disappoint which proves to me yet again that Yelp is a great place to find great service. I have two Toyotas, both of which are over ten years old. I just had both serviced at the Toy Shop last week and was very impressed. They didn't try to up sell me on what I didn't need and I feel much better going into this winter having gotten done what they did recommend. The price was significantly less than I would have paid had I gone to a Toyota dealership service department. Not sure why I wasted so much money over the years with the dealership service departments -- they Toy Shop is my future go-to for all service needs! read more

No frills and outstanding service. Think about how expensive those cookies are at the Lexus dealer next time you need service. 60K from the dealer 1500.00 60K service from the Toy Shop 489.00. read more

I just love them so much that part of me doesn't even want to share it again, Greg is just amazing and they do great work!!

I have a 2002 RAV4 that had accelerated slowly for years and had had weak brakes for at least a year. This vehicle had been seen by two or three other mechanics in the last four years and the acceleration and brake issues had either not been diagnosed correctly or had actually been caused by poor installation (brake pads). The Toy Shop noticed both issues and fixed them at minimal cost. The vehicle feels so different that I actually had my girlfriend drive it when we got home just to feel how it was so much better. Vehicle drop off, pick up, and a phone call with details on the repairs were all seamless and much appreciated. I can say with honesty that I've never been so impressed by a trip to the mechanic. I cannot recommend these guys enough. read more

Our nearly 20-year-old Tundra needed more than the usual twice a year oil change. Even though we live in Summit County, it was absolutely worth the small hassle of taking the truck down to The Toy Shop in Denver. They fixed a worn out ignition key cylinder, replaced both headlights, replaced the burned out dash lights, swapped our winter wheels and tires for the summer set, and took care of a few other neglected issues. We'll be back in the fall to re-swap the tires and take care of a few other details. 170,000 miles in, the Tundra drives like new. Greg kept me updated throughout and the estimate was accurate. Saved a considerable amount of $ by taking the Truck to the Toy Shop. Here's just one example: they swapped all four tires and wheels for $20.00. In Summit, that would also be $20.00 .. TIMES FOUR! read more

HONEST! HONEST! HONEST! Made an appointment to have my transmission flushed on my 2004 Tundra. I brought it down to Greg. He got it right in. A few minutes after it was in the shop, he came and got me. He brought me in to where my truck was. Showed me how good the fluid looked and told me he didn't recommend changing my fluid and didn't want to take my money. Wow! You never hear that from mechanics. Greg is different from the rest. There's still some good honest people out there. I WILL NOT HESITATE TO CONTACT THE TOY SHOP IN THE FUTURE FOR ANY OF MY VEHICLE NEEDS!! HONEST COMPANIES WITH HONEST PEOPLE ARE HARD TO FIND. Go to the toy shop if you want an honest person working on your vehicle! read more

Great value, great work, great people. Always honest about what's really needed. The only thing that keeps me from bringing my Camry to The Toy Shop exclusively is that I have to use paid time off from work or finagle rides to leave it there. If only my job were closer to the light rail or they were open on Saturday. read more

My Toyotas have always run like clockwork thanks to Greg and his staff at The Toy Shop. For 15+ years I bring my Toys in for they're regular checkups and trust Greg to fix whatever might need work. His prices are always fair and the work is done right the first time. I just had a supercharger added to my 14 year old Taco and still cant wipe the grin of my face. Thanks Greg. You earn my loyalty every time we do business! read more

Awesome mechanic. If you own a Toyota this is where you should be taking you vehicle for repairs! The owner is super nice and honest...a rarity in the automative industry! I found this shop after I reached my tolerance limit with the dealership. No more 4 hour waits just to find out that I need to wait another 4 hours! read more

I foolishly bought a used, messed up Camry in 2005, After spending thousands at a dealership to get it ready to drive, I found the Toy Shop through my barber, who was a Toyota enthusiast. After 13 years of Greg and his associates patching the car together every time it had a problem, I'm ready to let the car go and hopefully buy another Toyota so I can keeping getting service at the Toy Shop. They are honest, compassionate, and great at what they do. I would recommend them to anyone who came to me for Toyota/Lexus/Scion advice. read more

I told my wife our next car has to be another Toyota simply because of the outstanding service we've gotten from Greg and his team over the years. Latest example: the trunk latch on our 2004 Sequoia broke for the second time a few days ago. I paid nearly $800 at the toyota dealership to get it fixed the first time. The Toy Shop fixed it just today with a better latch (metal, not plastic). Total bill including an oil change, rotate and balance was $333. I should add that Greg was kind enough to fit us into his busy schedule. He new we needed our Sequoia for a new year's ski trip up the hill and made the repairs happen on short notice. Now that's awesome service at a fair price! Avoid Toyota Dealerships like the plague. Put your trust in Greg and his team...you won't be disappointed! read more

Great shop, great people, great knowledge, very honest and fair. Awesome overall value. My 1999 Toyota 4Runner has 295,000 miles with no major issues. All maintenance has been completed at the Toy Shop since 1999 (20 years of service). Greg and his staff are the best! -David read more

I had a belt break on a Sunday afternoon after another mechanic said it looked ok. I called Greg first thing on Monday morning and had it towed. He didn't over charge, didn't over sell, and most of all got the work completed WAY sooner than I expected. I'll be taking my car back to these folks from now on! read more

I've been going to the Toy Shop for about 10 years. Greg is honest, knowledgeable, and very objective. He does not try to gouge you on services you may not need. Additionally, their prices are reasonable. I recently bought a used Toyota, and they were very helpful in the whole process - from the initial research (things to consider & watch for, etc.) to the pre-purchase inspection. Highly recommended. read more

My family has been going to Greg for roughly 22 years. He is very honest, with incredible business integrity. Refuse to buy anything but Toyota, and Greg/The Toy Shop is the ONLY guy we will take our vehicles to. He's done everything from regular service to inspections on vehicles we're looking at purchasing. His prices are great, his transparency with needed maintenance/future maintenance is unwavering, making him the best in the state. I moved out of CO a few years ago, the only reason I'd ever consider going back to Denver is Greg. My family still takes all our vehicles to him. As we all know-trustworthy, reliable, honest mechanics are hard to find and he SETS the standard. I will always recommend Greg and his shop to anyone with a Toyota/Lexus/Scion. He runs a truly fantastic shop. read more
