okay not sure why this is a 3 star store. it's definitely 5. the workers are all so nice and personable: i come in here for jellycats every once in awhile, they typically have a really good selection! tip for jellycats: ask to be put on the list for whatever you're looking for and they'll text you when they it in stock and you can also purchase over the phone. read more

City Sprouts - golf ball jellycat! - Children's Clothing Near Me - Saint Louis, Missouri

Horrible experience! The staff are snobby and judgemental. I will never shop there again.

God awful customer service. If I want to go somewhere where the employees talk down to you and act superior, I would just go to Saks. Very disappointing, I encourage everyone to take their business elsewhere where it will actually be appreciated. read more

Yikes! I came in search of a bow as a last minute accessory before family photos. While I didn't find any suitable hair bows, I did find a lot of attitude! Not only did the employee absolutely gush over the person in front of me, she was downright rude to my family member and I. I've been in many times before and spent quite a bit of money here before. I guess because I only spent $10 I didn't deserve any respect?! I was shocked at the attitude of the employee. Unfortunately I will not be buying my daughter's Maileg Christmas presents here as planned. read more

Upon walking in, my partner and I were greeted with a warm welcome. I mentioned looking for a gift and that I wanted something bunny oriented. The person working said she had just the thing, and she did! She brought something to us from the back and it was perfect! She even gift wrapped it. I would definitely recommend City Sprouts for baby and children gifts. read more

Cute. Cute. Cute. Have kids? Know anyone who has kids? Give this place a visit. From rockin' Van Halen and The Who shirts for boys, to the cutest swimsuits and sunglasses for girls, whatever kids are lucky enough to have clothes from here are going to be the coolest on the block. The staff is friendly and they'll help you put together outfits, and you can also find other items here... High chairs, strollers, cool wall decorations and more. They had the sweetest little back packs and lunch boxes in there last time I stopped by. Just very cute things you won't find anywhere else. Wish I could've shopped here when I was a kiddo! read more

Whenever I have a kid I will be sure to shop here. This place is so unique and adorable. I walked in and squeeled with adoration of all the cute clothes and accessories! Do they seriously have these in my size? Because they look like little man and women clothes. What's great about this shop though is that they sell items from local artists. So if you make anything kid-related then you can contact the owner (which i will be doing because i make toddler shoes & toys) The only downfall is the prices. It's pretty much an anthropologie for kids clothes. read more

City Sprouts - Children's Clothing Near Me - Saint Louis, Missouri

My favorite store to buy baby and children's gifts. I've purchased gifts here that I've never seen any place else. The staff is so helpful and they always have new products and new ideas. I always like an excuse to shop at City Sprouts. read more

We came here last week to do some shopping for my toddler. The pros: Clean space, parking spaces right out front, we'll-lit, and cute/interesting inventory. The sales person greeted us right away, told us about a sale, left us alone to shop, but was available to help us when we wanted to try on a few pairs of shoes. We were treated courteously with no wait to check out. Saw some interesting/educational toys and a cute selection of shoes. The cons: the shop is a little small. We were able to look at everything that had in about eight minutes. I also agree with others that the prices are way high. We bought a pair of vans toddler shoes (on sale), a stuffed animal, a set of flash cards, and a pair of toddler sunglasses and somehow spent over 90 dollars! Ouch. My daughter (2 years) was at a bit of an age gap in the store - lots of toys for 18 months and below, and lots of toys for 3 and up. I've seen that several people have complained about their return policy; I did notice their sign by the register detailing their return policy. In any event, I do recommend this cute little store, especially if you're able to drop some cash without breaking into a cold sweat! We had a good experience and will be back. read more

I've stumbled through this store a few times during my walks in the Delmar Loop, and I enjoyed these stumbles immensely - even though I had no use for their services. Therefore when my husband's uncle and aunt had their first child this month, I was overjoyed at having a reason to go shopping at City Sprouts! Silly, I know, but true. You see, this is an adventure of a store that caters to the silly side of adults. Yes, the products are for children, but this is not the same old boring, too-sugary-sweet store for all things kids. No. This is a fun escape into whimsy and tongue-firmly-planted-in-cheek fun that everyone will love. Case in point, the clothes: t shirts with bikers and hoodies with attached animal mittens - need I say more? The store is decorated so that the merchandise is on display in a fun and active way. The staff is awesome, the store is awesome. Check'em out! read more

City Sprouts - From Their Website - Children's Clothing Near Me - Saint Louis, Missouri

I think any store that offers a shady return policy (i.e.NO refunds period, only store credit or exchange) is not a store that I will want to frequent after my first purchase. This is not good business practice and will be reporting to the BBB. additional note-the owner gets my name WRONG in her response. nice touch. my opinion of your store policies are valid. read more

Buyer BEWARE! While this shop has the best children's clothes in St. Louis, their return policy is FOR STORE CREDIT ONLY. They cover themselves with a small sign at checkout. This IMHO is ridiculous given we're dealing with children and we may be guessing at sizes. My granddaughter lives out of town. I purchased clothes that ended up not fitting. Now I'm stuck with a store credit for $400 until she can visit St. Louis. Once I spend this, I'm done. read more

Let's get honest - I'm not having a baby any time soon. I'm not even close to entering into the lifelong contract of mutual suffering known as marriage, and I'm still trying to shed stretch marks from the summer of my 7th grade when I discovered soda and snack cakes. So I think I'm going to register at City Sprouts for my 29th birthday, because I want to own everything.in.this.store. For myself. A turtle that sounds like the ocean? I'll take two. An adorable honey bear mobile that plays lullabies? That has GOT to be better for my sleeping environment than passing out to TMZ in a red wine haze. Box it up. Why, look at these snarky little baby t-shirts! Poop Factory? Future Prom King? My 10 lb cat is BOTH of those things and fits into infant-wear quite nicely, which I believe is no coincidence. One of each, please. City Sprouts doesn't make me want to have a child. But it does make me want to buy things for YOUR children. Or for the children I'll never have. Whatever. read more

If you are the kind of mom that absolutely gags at the thought of anything Disney, Pooh, or Cars themed in your baby nursery than City Sprouts is the shop for you. I went with my "little man" this past weekend and watched him as he inspected every single toy in the store one at a time. A tough decision lied ahead of him as he narrowed his selection down to either the classical painted wooden cars or the dinosaur finger puppets. While he nervously came to grips with picking just one I paroozed the amazing selection of quality children's books. I am a great lover of children's books and the selection here was one of the very best I have seen in the Lou. This was followed my loud outburst of oooohs and awwws over a pair of rainbow baby legs that every one is talking about. Not to mention they sell a baby sized baby grand piano. Sweet. Too Sweet. read more

What a great kids boutique! I received a gift from here when I had a baby shower earlier this year, and it was brought back onto my radar when I was researching what local options I had for kids/baby gifts. I like to try to shop local when at all possible, plus I was looking for some more unique gifts than you can find at a big box chain. I walked in and was immediately greeted and offered assistance. I let the salesperson know what I was looking for and a price range. She showed me several options, then let me browse. While I initially came in looking at spending less than $30 on something for one person, I ended up spending over $100 and buying half a dozen gifts for 4 different, lucky recipients (including my own kid). There are tons of gifts here that are fun, educational and stimulating, plus a large amount of clothes and toys. Bonus: They will gift wrap (gift bag with tissue paper/ribbon). I will definitely be back! read more

BEST KIDS STORE EVER! I LOVE that I can bring my 2 and 3 year old into the store to "test" out products before we buy. The staff have been so helpful and have played "games" with my kids so I can do some shopping. City Sprouts is my go to store for all kids items. Couldn't be happier to see you on the best places in St. Louis year after year. Sara read more

I love my little guy and one child is all I can handle right now, but sometimes, City Sprouts makes me wish I had a daughter. Such cute stuff! Of course, City Sprouts also makes me wish I was independently wealthy, 'cause apparently, cuteness comes at a price. Good thing my son is already a doll. Aside from really adorable clothes and shoes, City Sprouts offers a wide variety of unique toys and books, a few mod furniture items (high chair, bookshelf, crib) and tons of fun gift-y things for tykes AND parents (like diaper bags for Dad and boob cream for Mom). I like the off-color memory book featuring such gems as "Circle the faces Mommy made during labor" and something along the lines of "Draw a picture of Junior's first poopy diaper." Classy. If you've got the dough, City Sprouts probably can't be beat for super cute kids' stuff in St. Louis. If you don't, well, it's still a fun place to window shop--and it can't hurt to splurge on a little one in your life now and then, right? read more

This is probably one of the coolest stores in St. Louis to find gifts the kids in your life. Seriously though, all the clothes are really cute and unique. They also have a wide variety of toys, games, and other random stuff. Not only that, but they boring serious stuff like strollers and high chairs. You can seriously find everything here! It can be fairly pricey but it's really one of the best options around. Seriously a go-to for gifts. read more

Really helpful and friendly without being intense. Very clean, organized and well stocked store.

I don't think I'll ever have children, but everyone I know has them or is planning on them, so I have to familiarize myself with them; it seems like I've always got a children's birthday party or baby shower to go to. I like to buy gifts here for my friend's wee ones. They have cute toys, clothes, accessories, furniture, basically everything you'd ever need for a baby or toddler. (It's also worth mentioning that they carry men-friendly diaper bags which apparently are really hard to find.) Personally, I'm a fan of their T shirts for the little ones. The stock here constantly changes and has a one-of-a-kind feel; a great place to find the perfect gift for all the small spawn in your life. read more

This place is super cool. Most baby stores are full of the same old same old. This place has really interesting and unique clothes, toys, decor, and everything else someone would need or want. To be honest some of the diaper bags were so cute I would carry it as a purse. The women working the day I was there were so helping in picking out something for my sister's impending arrival. read more

My boyfriend has a niece who visited over Christmas. She is the cutest thing! And this store is SO perfect for her! They sell so many things that keep her interested including little wind-up toys (an inch worm that inches, a frog that does backflips, and a scurrying giraffe) and really interesting blocks! I found tegu blocks (magnetic, gender neutral colored, various shaped, wooden blocks), simple basic blocks with foreign languages (CHINESE! spanish, dutch, etc), and lots of plushies. They had these cool stuffed backpack animal things that unzipped for decapitation! I was really amused. The niece got really excited by their books and I ended up reading one to her. Too cute! This is definitely a place to bring 2-4 year olds! read more

Adorable store! Great for gifts and cute unique children's clothes and toys. The staff was very helpful and informative. Defiantly in the higher price range. They also have the cutest unique cards! read more

I'm the kind of girl who will make a great aunt. I don't have any siblings, so I'm talking about the aunt all my with-child friends pawn off so they can have date nights. That's fine by me. I will be the cool aunt who makes them crepes and homemade raspberry jam, paints their toenails and takes them to the City Museum. And when I buy them stuff, I'll get them unique and very cool kiddie paraphernalia from City Sprouts. One of my best friends just had a baby girl so I thought I'd pop in and see what sort of fun things they might have. The problem here is that's all they have - fun things. Way cool things. Things I would like to buy for myself! Jennifer B. was right when she said whimsy abounds. I felt like a kid in a candy store, looking around at all the bright colors and funky things like books called "Mother Knows Breast." And some sort of onesie that said "Milk on the Rocks." It is more avant garde baby stuff, and really, that's such a great idea. You could just hang out here for hours. And people do. A little girl was on the floor coloring. There's a children's play area when you first walk in, but really, the whole store is one giant children's play area. And possibly grownup's play area too! read more

Best kids store in town. If you don't live near the loop, go anyway. Cute boys clothes, and anyone with little boys knows cute boy stuff is hard to find. Great baby gifts, awesome selection of 'euro' kids toys. Much of it Eco-friendly! Great service. read more

When I walked into the store, I was not greeted, but the customers behind me were. We were clearly not together. I found really cute clothes and a game for my older children. I addressed my issue with the cashier about not addressing me and she apologized. All in all, I'm a happy consumer. The store is attractively displayed, it is clean and cheerful. read more

I hate to seem bias but I have very close family connections with this store...however, that did NOT alter any opinions I have of the place. To reiterate what everyone else has said...UNIQUE, CUTE, AWESOME and CUTE AGAIN!!! Owned by the some girls who own Phoenix Rising down the street so you know that they take great pride in picking out very unique items to stock. Yes, it is a bit pricey and babies seem to grow faster than weeds...so often times people don't see the point of shopping here!! Let me break it down into some finer points to help win you over: -First and foremost...UNIQUE...you will find things here that you will find no where else. Great outfits for one of kind baby pictures, Christmas outfits, Easter outfits, etc. -Safety first!!! All of the toys and items that a child MIGHT be able to put in their mouth will be totally fine. They have the highest precautions I have ever seen...I do not know all the correct terms, but their plastics, jewelry, toys, even their baby nail polish is all eco-friendly, green and natural! No toxins in your baby FTW! -They do have registry!! You don't need to just register at Babies R Us...they have all you need and more! Plus then other people can buy it for you!! -Completely independent...the more you support local businesses the better prices local business can offer!! -I have never met a friendlier staff...as well as knowledgeable! Basically I am not even a mother and I love this place. I buy all my friends super cute baby gifts from here and they all tell me how great they are...AND since everything is such high quality they have all told me they save the stuff for baby #2 or pass them along to freinds and family members...how awesome! read more

Had a bad experience shopping last week at CS. While out with our 10 week old, my wife wife decided to walk the loop and browse some of the stores. After stopping for Starbuck's, we decided to head into CS. As soon as we entered CS, we were greeted by a sales rep who asked us to please place our coffee on the counter while we shopped as someone recently spilled a drink in the store. Seemed kinda rude to blame me for something someone else did so we decided to leave. While the store looked fun all of the items could be bought cheaper online. While I like supporting local businesses, I felt like this local business must not have needed my business. Too many options to overpay for kids toys to go back to CS. read more

I love this place! Now I was almost sure I would since I had been checking out the store online for a while before going inside but the actual store visit did not disappoint. Very cute high quality kids stuff. Stokke highchairs, Monte gliders, Tea clothing, adorable wooden toys . . . it's all there. Staff is very helpful, if they didn't know they answer they grabbed someone else (the owner, I assume?). Also, they had an area to change his diaper which was fantastic. He has poor timing with his diaper emergencies. All around great place. If you're ever looking for a baby shower gift, go here and get a gift card or have staff point something out to you. read more

My friends bought some items at City Sprouts this weekend and went on to shop around the Loop afterward. We found a baby gift that we liked even better at another store, so we decided to return some of our CS purchases. We had purchased the items only about 10 minutes prior, so we thought it would be ok. The employees there informed us that returns were not allowed, and we could either get store credit or an exchange. I think that policy is just fine, but we were simply unaware of it. When we told them that, they informed us that our receipts stated "No Returns". Unfortunately, once you have a receipt, you've already made a purchase. I think I would've just appreciated some more obvious signage notifying us of this. Maybe it was up somewhere and I just didn't see it. This store has a lot of awesome handmade items, but I think next time I will go to a craft fair or Etsy, or just make something myself. But I love local businesses and can appreciate what they're doing. read more

I went in to buy a shower gift. I had flown in and had time constraints. They had no infant to 6 mo except 3 ugly onesies for boys. The cute stuff was 'on sale'. A tshirt and shorts were $50 on Saale and NO Exchanges or Returns on sale items. No excuse for such poor customer service. Overpriced, poorly stocked and poor customer service. Wrapping is free in an ugly brown paper sack. Don't waste your time or money. read more

My favorite spot for clothes (I wish they came in my size... and some brands do). Molly the store owner is always friendly, relatable and knows her customer... she just makes you feel special. Anytime my daughter wears a city sprouts piece we get so many compliments as they are not your usual kids items. The store is in my honest opinion magical... well curated, beautiful, well made clothes and toys, items you can't just find anywhere (a lot of the designers are smaller boutique designers as well). It never felt so great to support a local business. read more

I love this one stop shop for adorable baby and children's clothing, toys, accessories, gadgets and more. While it is a little more pricey then most places, it's worth it because they really are unique items. I have not been able to find as cute of clothing anywhere else! The items that they have that are the same as places like buy buy baby etc are priced exactly the same, no up charge simply because it's a boutique. But I go for the clothing mainly. Let me tell you, if you have a little stud muffin or have a little fashionista this is the place to snag some amazing items. It's more pricey then your run of the mill baby shop but if you like nice things and want your children to have a unique style, it's the place to go! The workers there are always extremely friendly and helpful, especially for new mommies, grandparents or aunts and uncles that need a lot of help! They also have some unique items just for St. Louis lovers, like the onesies that represent our amazing city! Highly recommend this shop! read more

A super cute kid's clothing store that offers some toys, too. The clothes are quality and are fun/trendy. The staff is helpful and the place just ooooozes kid couture. read more

Terrible return policy and therefore I will no longer sing the praises of the store. I have purchased a few items from City Sprouts and have been pleased. My most recent purchase was a pair of shoes for my two year old daughter. At this point, it is easier to shop without her. Unfortunately, the shoes were too big. When I went to exchange them 2 days later (with receipt in-hand), they did not have the size I needed. Store credit was the only option available. No offer was made to order the shoe. The store offered to call if another shipment arrived. I was able to find the shoe's online with free shipping in the size needed. I will not be shopping here any longer. read more

I recently purchased a stroller at City Sprouts. At the time of the purchase, I felt that while the staff was extremely helpful, but they really pushed this stroller over others. When I decided to buy it, they did not inform me of their return policy on "large items." When I realized that I was not strong enough to carry my five month old and the stroller to my car, I called to ask if I could return it and they said only for a 25% re-stocking fee on my $600 purchase. Despite pleading with the manager as well as the owner, they still refused to make an exception. They went so far as to blame me for the predicament which kind of offended me. So, be careful when purchasing "large items." I am a huge patron of small businesses, but their customer service really disappointed me. Unfortunately, my principles don't allow me to support their business anymore. read more

Needed baby shoes for my 15 month old boy, and the young man on staff (Brendan?) was VERY helpful and got us what we needed quickly and correctly. read more

Having read through was other people have written about the shop, I will agree and disagree with what has been said. City Sprouts is full of unique, adorable stuff that fits any budget. They have a wonderful variety of clothes, toys, books, accessories, etc. in every price range, with a super friendly staff who can show you what you need (in every price range). They also have awesome baby gear ranging from car seats to cribs to highchairs that are not only modern and chic, but also safe and affordable. Their prices are comparable to any online store and in shopping at City Sprouts you are supporting local business and helping the local economy. As a new mom, I am drawn to City Sprouts for my shopping because everything is so unique, but it is also well made and will last. It is quality stuff that will last through to the next baby, or as a hand-me-down for friends. I would much rather buy something from City Sprouts that I know will last, as opposed to something from some superstore that is cheaply made and will fall apart. Everyone should check out this fantastic shop. The staff knows about the products they sell and are happy to answer any questions that you might have. read more

Great merchandise and cute store - but SO unfriendly if you have kids with you. Ironic that they pretend to be kid friendly, but really don't want your kids in there - nor will they let you use the bathroom or bring in a drink. No thanks. read more

This is the go-to place in St. Louis for stylish baby/kids' gear, furniture and toys. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful. We were there on Friday for their yearly anniversary, where they served complimentary wine, beer, cupcakes and other snacks. Highly recommended. read more
