The service was polite and pleasant. The prices were what I would expect in Norway. They are not cheap but also not unreasonable. It's a good source for hobby gear from what I observed.

One word: Enchanting. Marthes Lekestue is, by far, the most magickal place in Oslo. I was walking…read moreup towards the t-bane when I was waved into this charming store by pink feathers dangling from a tree outside of it. The owner, Marthe welcomed me in for a cup of tea as I walked around and took in every amazing thing that sits on the shelves here. Not only is the store alone filled with something for everyone, but the building itself is it's own treasure. A home to Norwegian explorer Roald Amundsen as well as the neighbor to the king's ironsmith, I can't believe this place isn't flooded with people. But I think that's the best part, the secrecy. 10/10 worth visiting.

Butikken er anbefalt av Louis Vuttons reiseguide over Oslo i 2009 og 2012.

I got excellent service in this store. On the website I saw that "they" had some hats I was…read moresearching for. I asked them about the hats, because I couldn't find them in the store. They had the hats, but in a drawer difficult to reach without having to move everything from the window display. So they did, and I decided to sign up on Yelp so I could give them a positive review. Other positive things: - The store in Storo Storsenter was not full of people, and made it comfortable to walk around. -The TGR stores in general have very good prices on everything they sell. I'm a sucker for bargains. Negative things: - The store in Storo Storsenter is a lot smaller than the store in Arkaden (Storo is about the same sice as the one in Markveien), but you can still find many of the things you're looking for. I'll give them full score anyway. - The website is for TGR in general. It shows some of the things they have for sale in the stores, but it would be much appreciated if they showed all the things they sell, as many stores do that nowadays. If I search for something I always search on the web before visiting stores.
