We were hanging out at the Pier with some friends from out of town during Pokemon Go Tour: Unova and headed over here to try to catch more pokemon but also check out some shops! I was super surprised to even find a Miniso out here since they are typically only inside malls. I guess technically this is a type of outdoor mall. Miniso is a great place to shop for some of your favorite things like Disney, Sanrio, and Harry Potter items. They had a few blind boxes and anime figures but everything was laid out so nicely! Super organized and overall nice to the eye. This store makes a great shopping spree for gifts since everything is pretty cheap. Great location and store overall! Didn't buy anything this time but maybe next time! IG: @ammysalamii

Really great store with personal service! I was helping a friend declutter baby clothes and was…read moresuper happy to find a local shop where you can easily sell them for cash (Zelle transfer) or store credit. It was a super simple process where I just brought what I had (Quince and Kendi outfits) and the owner let me know on the spot what I could get for them. If you're looking for kids and baby clothes, the selection is great as the brands are higher-end, but affordable. Whether you're a first-time parent to a newborn or your kids are getting grown up, I would say make this a first stop before looking online. They sell toys and accessories as well. There's paid street parking or free parking in the neighborhoods. This is a fantastic small business to support and shop at!

This pre-owned kids store is the best! They have a great selection and at very reasonable prices…read more The owner is so kind and friendly. Gone twice and even sold a couple of items. Will definitely be coming back.

A really awesome little, locally owned toy shop in one of the busier parts of Venice. There is a…read moretiny parking lot on the side of the building, but there's only room enough for one or two cars, so street parking will be your easiest option. The attendant behind the counter was very nice and they do have a good selection of toys. I would say the selection is a bit limited in terms of size, but we are still able to find some really good items and were especially happy to see that they had some JellyCat items that we did not have. I would suggest if you were in the area.

The people are so nice, and they wrap for free (you specify the occasion and you can add the recipient's name to make it extra special).

Really cute baby store right on Main Street in Santa Monica. My husband and I came in here when I…read morewas still pregnant to review a few things that we had been eyeing for our registry in real life. Everything they carry is very luxe, high end brands and most of the materials seemed to be organic. The sales person was really nice and answered all of our questions. They also have a decent stroller selection that was really high end. She didn't know as much about car seats and stroller compatibility but was still very patient and nice. I'm excited to keep shopping here as our son grows up.

I have been looking forward to going to this store since before I was pregnant. Now being 16 weeks…read morepregnant, I made it a point to visit when I was in town. I walked in and the sales woman was helping the only other customer in the store. She never once acknowledged my presence in the 15mins I stood there with my hands full of items. Never a "hello", "I'll be right with you", or "let me know if you need anything". Even when I was standing at the cash register wanting to pay, she never turned her attention from this other man. All of my excitement was gone... I put my items down and left. And of course that wasn't acknowledged either. I'm extremely sad and disappointed. Luckily there are other amazing baby stores on this street so I was able to find the cutest things - and they were HAPPY to assist me!

It was so much fun to look around and discover new toys, games, stuffed animals, and dolls and nice when we got something new. I think it's a wonderful childhood experience to peruse a toy store and I'm glad that Tom's Toys is around to continue the tradition. Fun to look around and shop here. What an AWESOME toy store! Very clean. It is much bigger inside than it looks from the outside. Lots of toys from great brands to choose from for all ages and a great variety. Legos, teddy bears, dolls, hot wheels etc. I think they may have it all! Came in here to buy a gift. I got the cutest, age-appropriate stuffed animal at such a great value. Prices in this store are very reasonable and comparable to online prices and sometimes even better if there's a sale. Plus, love supporting small, local businesses. Customer service was awesome. So helpful and kind. Pointed me in the direction of what I came in for. They even offered to wrap my gift for me. Metered parking and garage parking close by. In a walkable area with other shops and restaurants.
