I would say my apartment is almost fully furnished by them (if only they sold furniture lol!) Truly one of my favorite shops to visit in the whole state. The staff is always very friendly and their items are reasonably priced. They also host pop-up events a few times a year which offers a great opportunity for local vendors and artists to get some exposure. Can't wait for my next visit!

One afternoon, my wife, son and I were taking a stroll through the center of Milford near the town…read moregreen. On a telephone pole, I saw what looked like an advertisement for a carnival, but it was for a new store called Weirdo Wonderland. It said it was a store dedicated to all things strange and unusual. I've been obsessed with horror and sci-fi films my whole life, so it sounded like it was right up my alley. I eventually popped in on a Saturday afternoon. I was stunned when I walked in. Lots and lots of horror and sci-fi collectibles. Tons of old movie posters and art prints. Various props, masks, old toys, plastic model kits, comics, and even old issues of "Famous Monsters of Filmland". The owner was very personable too. I'll definitely be popping in again to check out their collection of creepy chachkies.

The staff is friendly, helpful, and welcoming. As an adult, I could spend hours checking out all the new arrivals. It was challenging to pick the right items for the different ages on my list.

Billed as a "mom and pop" toy shop, it certainly makes one think back to the toy shops of yesteryear for those of us old enough to remember shopping for toys "pre-Internet". A surprisingly strong selection of toys, games and gifts. My daughters are already talking about what they'll pick out "next time".

This is literally the best toy shop I know. The staff is always helpful and cheerful and they are…read morealways well stocked on really well designed toys. Most of the staff at any given time knows all about most of the toys If not all of the toys. Anytime I need to buy a present for someone I can count on the staff to tell me all the good options for all different interests and explain each and every one of them to me. They always have great suggestions, cheerfully take any products back and gift wrap for free. It is a small store but they know their stuff and they do a fantastic job!

I wish they had more visibility because it seems like such a nice town toy store!

Never going back to Toys R Us again!

Someone shopping with me had to use the restroom really bad. He asked an elderly woman behind the counter if he could simply use the staff restroom very shortly, and she rudely denied the request. We ended up having to go all the way down the road for him. Also half of the place doesn't even sell toys! I wouldn't come here too often.

I found them on the mall's lower level, more or less in the food court area. They have a very colorful and eye-catching layout, with toys, Pokémon, Labubu, Marvel, and Hello Kitty branded backpacks, keychains, and more. If anyone in your world is a Pokémon card collector, they'll enjoy checking out their packs and individual cards. Fun Stop doesn't have a website, and the one attached to their Yelp page is unrelated. They do have an Instagram account and an e-Bay store.

I told her well my Yorkie is a service dog and he's in a stroller and theres no one in this isle. Who is he being vicious to? NO ONE. I told her I have certified service animals and I have their cards. I showed it to her and she says where did you get this online? I said excuse me this is a legal document from my doctor.
