Went into shop to buy a toy. Firstly the ticket price showed £4.50 the v rude shop assistant or owner l am not sure. Told me it was incorrect pricing . It should read £9 50. By law she would have to sell it at the price marked. I think they should close up shop & the worker should find a new job-- perhaps in a mens prison or something like that. Never had such bad customer service. I will not go there again.

Not even worth the one star. Have to agree completely with the other reviews regarding the extremely rude staff. No welcome; just told immediately to keep my son in his pushchair despite no clear signs to do so and there being a slightly younger child walking around the shop. Told not to let my son touch any of the small, what I would call, 'pocket money' toys at the front of the store. I understand times are different but it is completely pointless being open in my opinion if children aren't allowed to touch anything (which I would have likely bought). I was wearing a mask and sanitised my hands

Very rude as soon as i walked in as exempt from wearing a mask. She told me to leave the door open if i cant wear a mask. She also told me that she wasnt happy being in the shop with me and to not come near her! So if this is the sort of shop where you like to be discriminated against, through no fault of your own...your welcome to go in. Terrible rude staff..will not be back!! They do not deserve any custom

Poor customer service.
A shop assistant asked me to wear a mask. I am happy to wear a mask during lockdown however…
All restrictions have been lifted, night clubs and gyms are open. The fact that such a small shop asks to wear masks while Waitrose and other giants make it optional is very silly.
They made me feel unwelcome and I will never shop there again.

As a new customer I was satisfied that I could order an item that I had been looking for. Everything was running normally and I was able to finalize the purchase with shipping costs included. However, my surprise was great when I received an email a few hours later with the message that I had to make an additional deposit because the shipping costs were not correct and were practically double. I had never experienced this yet ... ... After a few emails I was informed that the shipping costs had not yet been updated and that I could get my money back. Lucky I paid with Pay Pall. They will never

Lovely little toy shop. The staff are very friendly and helpful, giving lots of helpful advice when asked. The shop sells traditional toys, including the occasional doll's house, and clothes for tots and babies, which, however, are pretty expensive considering that they will probably end up covered in dribble! But the toys are great as presents for smaller children. I bought a first kite here for a friend's child.
