The prices are reasonable and the curation is top-notch. The current collection of vintage clothes on offer didn't match my vibe but I'll keep coming back to check out new stock, hopefully in the near future. I did end up getting a massive holographic ring that can subtly provide a personality to my boring work clothes. The ring was $6. My friend was very interested in the great selection of high-end pens that are sold here as well. What a fun boutique!

She was very nice and explained how her grandmother is Japanese; hence, why the store has some Japanese notebooks. She also told me about Kinokuniya bookstore in NYC and J-Avenue in Columbus, Ohio which sell Japanese stationery and books. I bought 2 Midori notebooks as a Christmas gift for my sister: the B6 Slim Blank for $13 and the larger notebook, the A5 Blank for $15. I also bought a pretty cool looking picture frame for my parents for Christmas - it is also a clock for $42 which is a great price for such a unique piece of art. I highly recommend that you visit Cool World store if you are looking for a Christmas gift, birthday gift, or you just want to browse and maybe purchase something for yourself. I can't wait to come back to buy some Japanese stationery for myself. **** - 98/150 total reviews in 2023 - 649 total overall Yelp reviews - Reviewed on 20 December 2023

S'il Vous Play is a charming toy store in the heart of Cleveland Heights - Cedar Lee District. This…read moretoy store is located in a historical Tudor building, former firehouse. It's a magical store that I wish I had to play at growing up. I can only describe it as an immersion into the pages of a fairytale, it's that cute of an aesthetic. You'll see when you visit! Store: The store has two whimsical levels. The first level often has handmade decorations or twinkly lights. The second level has a gorgeous city mural. There is plenty of natural light. There is sufficient room for the kids to play on the second level and also shop. You can also linger outdoors at dainty tables. Merchandise: The store sells toys for boys and girls of various ages. From dinosaur games to doll houses, you'll find so many things here. Toys are very high quality and very unique. A lot of toys are European made. There is predominance of wood toys and educational games. You won't find the basic boring and overplayed toys. You simply won't find toys like these anywhere else in the city. I don't have kids but stop by to shop for Christmas kid drive donations. It's always so pleasant to shop here and tap into my inner child. I feel that the prices are very fair considering the quality of the merchandise. They also sometimes have great sales. Service: The owner Mariah and the team at S'il Vous Play are such lovely people. Kind, attentive, and always welcoming. Events: The toy shop offers birthday parties. I can't think of a more magical location to host one to be honest. And the location is so photogenic! Many moms I have met in the community had a lovely experience with birthdays here. The toy shop is very involved with the community and you'll find them at various events. Bring the kids to the Heights Music Hop in the fall for music and fun. Look at the store's social media for more happenings. For moms and non-moms, there are monthly women's circles hosted by the Little Scraps of Magic. The circles include tea, conversation, sound bath, and a space for womanhood. I mostly visit the store for these circles and they are soul medicine. They allow you to check out the store, tap into your inner child, and connect with local women. Parking: Parking is available onsite, it's free. Overflow parking is right next door. I can't recommend this store enough. It's just so beautiful, well designed, and filled with treasure. I highly recommend shopping here for your kids, your loved ones' kids, and checking out events. It's a true gem!

I love stopping into a shop that is definitely Chaotic Neutral. Maybe Chaotic Good. Or visa-versa. This shop is showcased / packed with Gaming, Gaming, Gaming. If you look up gaming in the dictionary, there's gonna be a picture of this shop They have gaming supplies, all sorts of card games, all sorts of singles, all sorts of table top games, dice and a great place in the back of the store to sit down and play whatever you desire. Markus also has what I believe is the only display of Sideshow collectible statues In Cleveland. If you like the stuff, be sure to break out your wallet they are not cheap. All along the tops of all the shelves are additional statues and other toys and collectibles. Be sure to look up. They carry, as I said, gaming supplies, and Comic supplies. They also have new comics on Wednesdays and Comics displayed around the store. A huge selection of graphic novels are along the wall on the right hand side. Markus has a lot of marquee or dioramas set up, and I love his Beholder, the huge G.I. Joe aircraft carrier and of course the Star Wars robot in the back. Only pictures can do this store justice. Please take a look at the pics. Markus and Ground Zero will have some free comics for a free comic book day. Be sure to stop out and see them.

Fun Fact: This store was nominated for Best of the East award…read more If you're looking for a shop that feels like stepping into an artist's living room, visit La Bella Vita flagship store at Eton Chagrin Boulevard. I wandered in because the displays are so cute, I wanted to see all the treasure inside. Every nook and corner is packed with funky, colorful one-of-a-kind furniture and home goods you won't find anywhere else. A lot of the items are hand crafted or hand painted. The vibe is playful, and just whimsical. The store has multiple rooms inside with different themes and colors. One of my favorite parts of the shop is their collection of teapots and tea sets. You can find them all over the store. They have so much personality! It's like each piece has its own little story. Definitely the kind of thing that would instantly become a conversation starter in your home. If you're looking to host a tea party, you must browse this collection. There's also a bit of funky furniture like foot stools and arm chairs that are so playful! If you're looking to add a pop of color to your living room this is the place for you. Especially perfect for Alice in Wonderland themes! Fair warning: the prices are up there. This is definitely more of a "treat yourself" or "special gift" kind of place rather than everyday shopping. But to be honest, the creativity and quality of the pieces feel worth the splurge if you're looking for something truly special. A lot of pieces are one of a kind, so it makes all the sense. I had brief conversation with the owners and employees while walking through. They were so friendly and welcoming! If you're into bold design, quirky details, and pieces that feel like art, this boutique is absolutely worth a visit. Even just walking through feels inspiring.

We were greeted as soon as we walked in. I was asked if they could help with anything and when I said that I was just browsing, they seemed happy to let me look. Quite a few singles behind the counter, I didn't really look at pricing, but they had a wide array. My son asked about Pokémon, they showed him where they were but also stated they had a new release that just came out the day before behind the counter, so he was able to get a few packs. I told him which sports I was looking for, and they took the time to walk me to each section of packs and explained which ones were more popular and why. It looked like the store was well stocked with collector supplies as well. I'm not in Medina often, but I'll definitely swing by any chance I get. Nice to find a small town feel in a store nowadays, and I appreciate them not being pushy on anything. Check it out peeps!
