I simply asked if they had a popular item in stock (as I was told by their sister store in manasquan that they were in stock at big fun toys.) I was rudely answered with attitude and shortness. Telling me her manager would be bringing the item in whenever she felt like it and would notify via instagram. She shrugged me off. When she realized how rude and unnecessary her energy was, she tried to overcompensate in friendliness. Nothing about this store was big fun, and not how a toy store should be!

Much of the items are priced in the $4 range and if you are specifically looking for something, you should probably know what they have and what they don't.

Walking in here, you can tell it's not like other stores and you can just feel the beachy, summer vibes. Maybe that's just because of the associations I feel between this store and summer vacation, or maybe it's just because that's what this place is all about. It's a bit more expensive than some other stores, but you're 100% paying for convenience. It's one block from the beach and located right in the heart of Lavallette. In my opinion, it's a great place to have in the neighborhood.

When I was recently visiting the shopping center on Newtons Corner Road, I noticed that a new game…read morestore had opened, so I decided to check it out. I went inside and spoke with the owner, who had just opened the shop. The first thing I noticed was how nice, neat, organized, and clean everything was. There's a semi-private room with about four or five tables, and there's also another space in the back that can fit a few more. The store has game shelving on wheels, and the owner explained that he set it up that way so he can move things around to fit groups of tables as needed. Tonight I came back with my friends for our game night. We usually get together about once a month at local cafes or other places and play games. Some of us brought food to eat, and others bought snacks and drinks that were available at the shop. We had a group of 13 people, and it was such a fun time tonight! The owner set up two tables for us in the back, just like I requested, so we had our own private area. He allowed us to play at the shop without a charge, since it's a new place. We all felt like this was such a kind gesture. Most of us actually decided to contribute some cash since we were there for a few hours. We also all bought drinks and snacks to help support the shop (like I mentioned earlier). We felt the snacks were a good variety of healthy (like organic trail mix) and junk food (like Doritos) and this would be good for a range of people's tastes. Later on, we split into smaller groups and played different games at other tables in the shop. One of the things I really loved was how we could move the tables around or choose to sit in the semi-private room. The couple who owned the store was so kind, welcoming, and accommodating. I loved how the owner mentioned that he disinfects the tables and chairs regularly, and the bathroom was neat, with plenty of paper towels and even toilet seat covers. I've visited other game stores in different parts of New Jersey, and some were not as clean as this one. I love to play games, but I don't usually buy them. While we were there, some of my friends saw games they were interested in. There is a nice selection of games from family friendly ones to more adult- oriented ones. Everyone had a good time and loved the fun atmosphere. The owner also mentioned they'll be hosting tournaments and events in the future. This new game shop is just a great place to visit, hang out with friends, play games, and maybe even find something new to buy.
