I am a long time resident in Great Barrington but, as an older person, haven't visited Tom's Toys frequently. However, for my grandchildren's Christmas gifts, I went to shop there this year. The service I was met with was awful. I have a hard time walking and had accidentally bumped into a few stuffed animals. I apologized but was met with rudeness and a lack of empathy. I was humiliated in front of the crowd within the store. There was one worker in particular who astounded me. I left the store shocked by the rude service and extreme lack of empathy from one worker in particular.

It was beyond rude, mean to my child, and offensive. As I walked my kid out, I had to keep asking him not to touch anything, and he was so confused and upset. It was a totally bizarre experience. Just awful.

BONUS: A 10% off coupon popped up when I checked in on Yelp so be sure to do that! This store is large & it's fun to walk up and down the numerous aisles to check out all the neat stuff they have. Stem/educational items, toys for all ages, games, dress up/costumes, model cars & aircraft, nice train sets/accessories/landscapes for the train lovers. Science kits, environmental science kits, edible science kits.... Kits for budding engineers & architects... a great way to start tapping into your child's natural abilities early on to nurture possible career interests. It just might save a bundle on college if they have a good feel for the type of career they may enjoy. There is a section of adult games in addition to children's games & family games. There is too much to list here so check out some of the items via my photos. There is so much more to see!

I got to take my time and peruse with no hassle or pressure, and shopping here gave me a glimpse of what and who is out there making art right now in Western Massachusetts (my beloved home base). I appreciated how well-curated everything is, and I also like that there is a wide assortment of offerings for a variety of budgets. I fell in love with a piece of jewelry, got some snacky goodness, and enjoyed the high-echelon fine art. My family comes here regularly, and, sure enough, when I got back home to California, they surprised me with a beautiful, quirky, shaggy stuffed toy by an indie designer - the perfect cure for no-longer-in-Massachusetts-blues! This isn't a tourist shop; it's a local jewel.

You are greeted with a warm hello and love to help you shop. Mutability in Motion is a must stop in Stockbridge! I can't wait to go back.

The store has a bit of everything for everyone, just shelves and shelves of stuff you could spend hours looking at. We left with some amazingly unique and eccentric items, even scoring a deal after some negotiating. An amazing store and an amazing owner.

The coffee here was delicious; cups are running $4 - $5. They offer specialty espresso shots, hot chocolate, smoothies, sodas, and more ranging $4.50 - $7+. They do have other items for sale such as Folkmanis Puppets, decorative gift bags, a selection of greeting cards, unique journal books, and a variety of items related to creative writing. The store also supports local artists by displaying their artwork throughout the store along with the price list. There were several spots throughout the bookstore where you can sit back and enjoy your beverage or snack with a book, which made for a cozy welcoming vibe. Staff were super friendly and inviting. The store is well organized and it is fairly easy to find what you are looking for. If you need a quick reference point on where to start be sure to ask the staff for help. If you are a book lover this is a great place to visit while in Saugerties. I highly recommend them.
