This is not your "run of the mill" toy store that you'd find in any mall across the Wasatch Front…read more No, this little corner of the Grand America Hotel is what imaginations are famous for. Of course, they have toys and candy, but look beyond that and you'll see a well-curated collection of items to delight the young and the young-at-heart. The décor and ambience left nothing to be desired. It almost looks like a set for a children's television show. If you find yourself in the area, stop by and take a stroll through the store. It will leave you wishing you were ten years old again.

Or perhaps you're a family member at a convention and need to bring home a surprise... well Jou Jou has just the thing. This is such an imaginative store that you can be lost for HOURS if you wanted to. The Giant robot, the dragon, the wall of costumes and the wall of games. The airships, all the fine work and details, I really don't think there's another store like it. There is a special wall that contains the monsters, if you walk by, some of them are activated. Some are cute, but some could be frightening. There's a tower of baby toys that smells like baby powder. it truly is something unique!

Never visited the store in person, but I have browsed their website and their selection of toy…read moretrains is incredible.Why does it matter to me, you may ask? Well, because my niece loves playing with toy trains, and they are hard for me to find, as we don't have a decent toy store in Philadelphia. The best toy store in the Philadelphia, Tildie's Toy Box, is terrible when it comes to selection. I really wish we had a toy store in Philadelphia as good as Red Balloon. Rock on, Red Balloon!

The employees here are nice and helpful, but unfortunately there's not a great selection of card…read morepackages. The only times I've seen a good selection is with recent releases. In addition, searching for singles is tucked away so you have to use the computer in the very back of the store, which isn't well highlighted unless you ask. Everything is relatively priced at MSRP, so you won't be charged insane rates if you do find something you're looking for to add to your collection. I will say that their amount of card game supplies is very well equipped. If you ever need boxes or sleeves they have plenty! I would recommend coming here for supplies to elevate your card game experience!

I had a very positive experience visiting Game Night Games for the first time last week…read more They helped me locate the game I came in initially looking for- but when I second guessed my choice of birthday gift for my spouse they helped me deliberate between two games based on our personal gaming preferences. Selection isn't quite as big as some other game stores I've visited in the Valley, likely because they just don't have enough storefront space for it, but I think the gaming space in the back is a worthwhile sacrifice for the community aspect. Game prices are recommended market value, but they did have a small sale and used section. The used section was priced fairly, pretty in line with what I see from hobbyists on FB groups and marketplace.

While checking out this strip, my daughter and I ran into this store. I'm a sucker for Hello Kitty…read moreso when she caught my eye through the front door, I knew I was going to have fun here. Walking in, I think the best way to describe this joint is chaotic. Chaotic in the sense that there's a ton of stuff shoved in a very small space. They have a little of everything here. It's quite.... interesting. You have trinkets, blind boxes, key chains and lingerie. The lingerie really threw me off honestly. It was the last thing I would expect from a store like this. We did find a couple things in the store to take home with us when we had back to Idaho. There is a 10 dollar min unless you are paying cash. The cashier is there to do her job so don't expect too much customer service. If you're looking for Sanrio type items than this is the joint to hit up. It is quite overwhelming trying to check everything out. As long as you're patient and is willing to take the time to check everything out than you should have fun for you! But for me, I did have fun looking at everything at first but the more I got into the store itself, it made me uncomfortable due to the cluttering of it.

It's possible the owners don't know but still very disappointing as I would expect a hobby/enthusiast store to have legit items. If anyone was selling fake smiskis in Utah I would expect it to be those kiosk vendors at the mall, not this place. I guess life can be surprising.

I love this place! I've been wanting to stop by every time I drive by on 2100 S, and I'm so glad I…read morefinally did. It's a great antiques store that's been open about a year and a half, run by an owner who is interested and passionate about the industry of antiques and collectibles. The store is packed full of rusty collectibles like farm equipment, old signs, some housewares and a small rack of vintage clothing, but mostly patina and rust, as the store name suggests, but all mostly clean and very nicely organized which made it easy to browse and look through (i.e. you're not scared of something toppling over when you're trying to look at something behind it). I loved the collection of vintage saddle blankets, antique French wire laundry baskets, vintage and homemade light fixtures, and old ladders. The store feels more masculine than some antique stores, and doesn't have a ton of housewares, which makes it fresh and interesting. There are large items out in the parking lot too. Owner Matt Binyon was in the store when I visited - he's friendly and interested in helping you find what you're looking for. He said some of the items in the store are booth rentals from other collectors and recommended some places I could look for bigger furniture pieces. He also owns American Rust & Patina in Layton, which has more furniture and Annie Sloan Chalk Paint, and I need to check out. This is a great asset to Sugarhouse! So glad it's here.

As we are visiting SLC until tomorrow, we won't be able to enjoy the shop.

I should have listened as I was lied to over and over again, couldn't get all my consignment items back, and ended up getting taken advantage of because I simply couldn't deal with them anymore and was willing to take heavy losses just to cut the ties. Even though they tried to get me to sign an NDA so I wouldn't let anyone know how sketchy they were, I refused to sign and warn everyone I know not to sell here.

Stopped into Cabin Fever before heading to lunch. What a neat store! They have an array of goodies…read morehere. It was hard not to get overly excited to check everything out! I had to look at everything! You don't want to miss anything cool. You got funny cards, lunch boxes, scratch and sniff stickers to movie themed books. I wanted it all! My favorite items were the naughty candy boxes at the register! I was with a family friend and I didn't want her to see me buying the candy boxes but man I wanted one. I did find a neat Harry Potter sticker book for my friend. It has 934 stickers to this book. I'm very excited to give it to her! She is a due hard Harry Potter lover! The gentleman that was working behind the counter was really sweet. He showed me a couple other Harry Potter themed items they had. I thought it was kind of him to show me something I could have missed. He rang me up. Wrapped my friend's book in nice tissue paper and thanked me several times. I have a feeling this could be a locally owned business. I could be wrong but the costumer service here screams locally owned. The salesman was attentive and kind. It was a different kind of customer service. Either way, it was great! I don't know if I'll be back in the area but if I am, I'm definitely coming back to this store to check out their new merch.

(And probably don't need) Go here for the funny, different, unique items. If you come in looking for a particular thing, good luck. But coming in with an open mind, that's where the magic happens. I ended up with three different greeting cards. Only one that I planned to use immediately. Two others that would definitely be used in the future. All of them slightly inappropriate, which was great. I hate to be this person, but I did get the feel that things were priced a little high. Found myself surprised by the price for items and thinking the price wasn't worth the item.
