I have to say, I was very impressed with Fantasia's. The outside of the shop looked very much like…read morean upscale adult shop in Boston, MA that caters to a wealthier, but just as playful clientele. I stepped inside and Fantasia's felt a little bit more like your standard sex shop and less of an upscale "adult boutique." However, I was still pretty impressed. They have so much stuff! They have, for example, an entire case dedicated to lubricants. They also have another case dedicated to vibrators with remote controls. Teehee! There are other cases absolutely full of other toys for men and women. My favorite cases were the ones that contained the glass toys and the extremely expensive toys. Both out of my reach in so many ways... maybe one day. The selection of lingerie sets and magazines is also impressive, though I didn't see many movies so if that's your need look elsewhere. If leather, fetish, or PVC is your thing, this place should definitely be your first stop. They have so much bondage and leather gear it's incredible. They've also a nice selection of whips, which I find is a nice present for a bride-to-be (not kidding).

If you're a fan of the Blizzards you'll know that they say Miss Fantasia Preaches. The first time…read moreI went into this shop I can only say it was on a sort of field trip. The shop has a huge selection of everything one could imagine from pvc/sexy outfits, any kind of dildo/vibrator, even the Rabbit as made famous on sex and the city, and other kinds of fetish gear. After trying to stealthy sneak into the shop so as not to attract the attention of anyone you know who might be walking by, it's always fun to check out what other kind of people frequent a shop as such. in Miss Fantasia I was amazed to find people young and old, hip and not so hip, gay and straight, which I think speaks volumes on just the wide range of products they have to offer. The staff within the shop is extremely helpful, and one time my flatmate and I were entertained for a half hour by a shop keeper explaining the pros/cons of all the vibrators on the display rack. He seemed to know from personal experience, which I don't know is a good thing or a bad thing haha. They also are so kind as to check and make sure that the vibrator you're purchasing is operating properly, now I'm not saying this has happened to me, but let's say a friend was purchasing a vibrator there and when they put the batteries in they realised that there was a bit of a shall we say kink. The shop keeper then very kindly held up said vibrator and shouted to the back of the shop asking for a working one to be brought to the front. Case and point a very helpful staff!

Told us to leave if we were just tourists, when in reality we specifically looked this place up to go here and buy a specific product. Do not feel like I have to explain myself much further, but thought I should hop on here and tell people to attend the many other shops like this in the wonderful city of Dublin! Do not recommend!

Has anyone else noticed that Dublin has a huge number of "Adult Shops?" Because I have. Not that…read morethat's a bad thing. Where else would Irish citizens buy their porn, toys and lube? Maybe everyone here is just getting laid and being all kinky about it on a very regular basis. Anyway, Basic Instincts is your basic sex shop selling the standard range of gear. Nothing too surprising, though I found it a bit pricey, probably because it is in the city center. I bet you can find a better bargain in your neighborhood adult shop. You know you have one! Like Melanie said, the store is well laid-out and bright, so it didn't feel creepy like some of these places can feel.

There's a doorbell you must ring before going in, which ensures that the people inside don't feel watched or rushed by passers by who decide to go in just because it may seem funny. You can find all the basic toys, a good selection of water based lubes, nipple pasties, all the normal stuff. The staff is very knowledgeable about the characteristics of what they're selling. They'll be able to advise you and also allow you plenty of room to decide. It's definitely very female friendly :)

At the very young age of 17 I moved to Greenwich Village in New York, just around the corner from a…read morespot on 6th Avenue that had an overwhelming selection of sex shops. A few months later I was presented with the opportunity to see a hilarious musical adaptation of the infamous porn Debbie Does Dallas. At the completion of the musical my friends and I realised that we'd never actually seen Debbie Does Dallas and thus they all agreed that I should be the one to go into the shop and buy a copy. We chose a shop that looked clean and well lit and in I headed, I looked at the selection of very intriguingly named pornos like Watch Me Pee Part 3, but alas no Debbie Does Dallas, so I garnered up the courage to ask the man working the counter if he had any copies. Suddenly, I found myself in some dark, seedy back room with three sweaty middle aged men all trying to help me find Debbie Does Dallas .. Utopia Products brought me back to this experience immediately. It's a bit seedy and dated. It claims to be the first sex shop in Dublin city centre and it looks like it hasn't moved on a whole lot since then. They do offer a very well stocked website that offers discreet deliveries, etc for those blushing violets out there. It might be a better alternative for all ...
