I'm start on the same line as some of these in the middle reviews. The lady in the front isn't as friendly as I expected. The store is definitely bare and the shelves are empty. There isn't a very big selection but the prices are around where they should be. read more

Cute little shop. They have a lot unique toys that you wouldn't normally find at Walmart or Target. They have a great selection of Melissa and Doug toys as well. The stuffed animals are a little on the pricy side. read more

Cute little toy store in the center of town. They have a really good assortment of quality toys and many items are out to try out. Their grow a frog is 28 years old and is out at the cash register. The folks who own thus place and work here are super nice. While I am sure it is tough to compete with Amazon, this little toy shop is nice when on vacation. read more

This toy store in the center of North Conway is a great place to stop in and buy some unique items for the kids in your family. We stopped in at this store while spending an evening in town and we have to say that we loved it. It isn't as stuffed with items as we would have thought, but everything they had was great and not terribly priced. We ended up looking through for a while and eventually bought a few items. The best parts of this store were the polite staff and 27 year old frog they have on display. Definitely a place to visit with kids but be prepared to walk out with something. read more

It's a very cute store and a good place to check out for great toys for children of all ages. Books, stuffed animals, board games, play kitchens, educational games- the list goes on. We noticed that the store seemed a bit more empty than it had been during past visits, so maybe they are making room for a new season of toys but we're not sure. Overall, a good place to visit at least once! read more

Spend sometime browsing this store over the weekend while my family was in town for vaca. Though the selection is not as big as Walmart/TRU they do stock some cool stuff that you cannot find in those other big box store. The lady working that day is super nice. We talked about the 27 years old frog that have at the cashier's counter. Damn frog looks like a floating pickle...so fat and very cute! Knowing that we were tourists in town, she offered to take family photo for us in front of the store. We picked up couple toys for kids, including potato gun. Never seen that before. Now I need to go buy a sack of potato I guess. I will come back for another walk next time in town. read more

Great selection, competitive prices (compared to what I saw on Amazon.com, some were actually better at the Toy Chest than on Amazon), but the customer service was lacking. It's nice to walk into a small town shop and get a friendly greeting and "goodbye, thanks for coming." But the two ladies behind the counter didn't acknowledge us when we came in and kept taking about personal things while we shopped (and the shop isn't that big so we could hear everything). The one acknowledgment the ladies behind the counter have even after sifting through items at their counter where they stood, was when we bought something. It's ok, they just need a reminder that they are in sales and need to be friendly. There was a lot of toys out to play with. That's always nice. The kids had a great time. read more

Some European but not most by far as it's ok at best. What you'd expect of a toy store really nothing impressive or impressionable. read more

A seriously awesome you store that made me wish I was a kid again! They have so many great toys at great prices! Super friendly and helpful! We will go back every time we are in town!!!! read more

Great toy shop - I stop here once every year on my ski trip in NH. They have a great selection and everyone has been really nice and welcoming. I am always able to find something to buy for the kids in my life. read more

The prices are a little high at this store, but that could be because most of the toys are of a better quality. I liked the fact that the owners were considerate enough to put a very small section of "throw-away" stuff near the door, like sticker books and plastic figures, just in case some long-suffering parents found themselves having to buy something or face a tantrum. This was one of my kids' favorite places to stop in during our stay, and we found some awesome birthday presents for the neighbors. read more

Large selection of unique, educational toys not found in the typical big box store. Owner spent quite a bit of time explaining various toys for the youngster I was shopping for and was very helpful without being pushy. Toys are better quality than found other places as "trial and error and customer feedback" provide information for choosing inventory. The two toys purchased were excellent quality and I couldn't be happier. Highly recommend this store. read more

I like this store. I had no problem with the cashiers, as others have complained. (I think the "over 50" reviewer was being a little over-sensitive! haha But funny review. I doubt it meant the cashier was saying she looked over 50.) I bought a game here that was a big hit at Xmas time (called Know it or Blow it $25 at this store.) I also bought a little pen-sized microscope/telescope for $16 that I was not happy with... didn't think it worked well, but they had no problem letting me return it. The day I bought the items, the cashier told me I didn't even need a receipt to return things... because they knew their products. They have some more unusual games that are hard to find around North Conway... like Settlers of Catan. Fun store to browse! read more

If you can't find something you love here you're too picky! You'd be better off buying cheap crap from Wal-Mart or Toys r Us. They have a wonderful selection of "old" toys - I kept going through saying, "Oh I had that as a kid, I can't believe they still make them!" Stuff like bingo cards for car trips, buckets "walkers" on a rope where you're basically standing on an overturned bucket & use the ropes to hold them on your feet & walk around taller, etc. They have a good selection of Thomas stuff, a great selection of eco-friendly toys, a great selection of pretend stuff like shopping carts, baby doll strollers & cribs, a great selection of craft kits, great Melissa & Doug section, plenty of bins with cheaper toys like loose trains, cars, trucks, animals, pencils, lips gloss, jewelry, plus stuff like diaries that lock, mini lockers, jewelry boxes, plus a nice selection of books, stuffed animals, & figurines. I could have easily dropped a thousand dollars in here!! Entirely too much fun. My one complaint is the cashiers. We went in here on two different days & the woman who checked us out the first day was very polite - I gushed over their selection & she politely said "thank you," but wasn't overly friendly. The second day we were here there was a different cashier & again, I complimented their selection & how especially seeing so many toys from my own childhood was really fun & her response was, "Yeah, when we order inventory if it's something that will make the '50-something' crowd say, 'Oh wow I had that when I was a kid' then we have to order it." I'm 30 years old & I look good for my age, I take care of myself, I'm fit & I don't have any gray hair, so there is NO WAY anyone would EVER confuse me for being 50-something!! I stared at her, waiting for her to correct herself, but nothing. For that I dock them one star. Sorry, you can't age your customer (who is GUSHING about your selection) by 20 years & still get 5 stars from me. ;-P read more

This review is overdue, but this summer my kids had a blast in this store. Jane was especially helpful with one of my daughters who needed to exchange her toy. Very friendly, very considerate locally owned store. Thank you from Portsmouth read more

What a great store! Very friendly and helpful staff. They were very personable and made suggestions when I needed help selecting a few gifts. They know exactly what their customers like. And a fabulous selection of educational toys, games, stuffed animals and so much more! I highly recommend taking a peek inside! read more
