Wonderful and very thoughtful service by this shop. Shortly before Christmas I did an on line order for a Green Toy ferry (so not a huge order) to be sent to my grandson and the shop noticed that delivery and billing address were different and phoned me up to ask if I would like the toy wrapped in Christmas paper. I (and everyone I have told about this) feel this is a fantastic service. Do look at what toys they offer - I certainly will!

Val and her team gave wonderful customer service when a particular colour was unexpectedly out of stock. Communication was great, especially when things are outside of their control, keeping me as informed as possible along the way. This is a shop that really cares about its customers, thank you very much!

What a lovely shop, so much choice and the staff are really helpful. I went in for three presents and didn’t know what I wanted, the two ladies made lots of brilliant suggestions and I left with my three gifts - all with wrapping paper and all for less than I had imagined I would have to pay. Thank you Toy Shop - keep up the good work! So good to be able to shop local :-)
