“Very nice place I’m so happy I went to visit. I’m a big Lego fan and it was a great experience with the staff and the legos there. Highly recommend if you’re a Lego fan !”
“I went in here for the first time a few weeks ago because I wanted to start on a Gundam kit that weekend. I'm *SO* glad I did! The guy who helped me saved me *SOOO* much time researching and figuring out what kind of model I wanted to go with. SERIOUSLY. THANK YOU. He gave me information that I didn't even know to look up! Best customer service ever. I was very happy with the kit I left with and I eventually came back this past weekend for some more. Woo! I would definitely recommend coming here if you want to peruse a large selection of merchandise with helpful costumer service.
One bit of critique I would add is that initially, I did have a hard time finding the entrance since it's in a strip of warehouse-fronts that all look similar, but once I found it, woo! (Maybe put a balloon or anime stand-up or something out front the door to make it obvious it's for the entrance to the Anime store for other directionally impaired and semi-blind/unintentionally oblivious folks like me?) Just a suggestion - you probably have it mentioned somewhere more specifically what to look for and I probably overlooked it.
Thanks again for your help - you guys are the best!”
“This store was the absolute best and had more than I can imagine. The lady was so nice and helpful. The store had anything and everything. I left with $70 worth of stuff and left more than satisfied. Overall great store and I highly recommend.”
“By far the best kids game/gift shop I've been to! They have unique gifts, great customer service and they wrap it for you!! Been coming here for all our birthday and holiday gifts for the kids and we are continually impressed.”
“I'm an old dude who knows zero about Warhammer 40k. At one gaming store I was told to just watch YouTube videos and read up on how to play. Lucas spent about three hours showing me the basics of how things work. Three hours. With no promise I was going to buy anything. Yeah. That's worth a 5 star review.”
“I LOVE THIS LOCATION!! I have been going here the past 10 years and always have an amazing time. This time I went I was beyond pleased and grateful.
This year is the first year they have walls in the back portion of the store that are setup as examples of how you could do your boards!!! I loved this as a veteran teacher and for my brother who is new. The visuals were great to see other possibilities on how you can set your space up. I believe the young woman who did the boards was named Devany (sorry if I spelled it wrong).
If you want the board as is or mixed around, somebody will pull all the supplies for you and laminate anything you need.
We were offered water multiple times or checked on throughout our time.
Highly highly HIGHLY recommend this location.”
“I often pop in here to get second hand clothes or shoes for my kids. Recently it was my son's 4th birthday and we were all home sick. He had been asking everyday for over a month if his birthday was tomorrow and if he could please have a spider stuffie. He was so sad to miss his birthday at school and I had had no time to buy him a present because we had back ti back illnesses for a month. I called Kelly's corner, they had one and asked if I could pay over the phone and have her toss it out the door to me so as not to infect anyone .she was so sweet and offered to drive the gift to my house (we lived nearby)after work. She even wrapped it in a gift bag and added a few trinkets. It made his day and meant so much to me. Thank you!”
“i see that a lot of the negative reviews mention the prices of the toys being too expensive and i just have to add my two cents. there’s a LE about 45 minutes from me, and their prices are pretty much the same as the one in san ramon. i don’t think the prices are too high at all, i think they’re extremely fair and also not always under the control of LE. for example, i go to LE purely for jellycats. jellycats are relatively expensive no matter where you buy them, but LE always has an amazing selection and the first time i ever went to the one in san ramon, i found a jellycat that has been retired for so long, and is very rare and hard to find, AND THEY WERE SELLING HIM FOR HIS RETAIL PRICE! that is amazing. just a different perspective”

37671 Niles Blvd, Fremont“My brother and I came in randomly on a coffee run and came across Mantiques. 2 49ers jackets caught my brothers eyes. Coming back 2 more times, he finally decided on bringing these 2 jackets home. These guys have a great treasure box of everything you can think of. They also have a great welcoming set of door open to anyone passing by. Don’t forget to get a free toy at the door when you leave- “ONE PER KID. BIG KIDS OK TOO” ?”
“Owner is so cool. Very friendly and has great hospitality. I got some Pokemon cards from him and priced things according to the current market. Huge fan! Will come again”
“The owner and staff at this place are always nice and welcoming. I like their selection of Magic the Gathering product and the variety of card sleeves that they have in the store. I like to check in once in a while and look through their draft chaff and buy singles for decks I am building or just want to collect. Overall, I've been popping in and out of the store since around 2016 and I've always had a good time there. I recommend checking this place out.”

Quite the gamers dream come true for collectibles and other novelty stuff- just be aware and clutch onto that wallet, you might overspend as I always do.”

37671 Niles Blvd, Fremont“Talk about a nostalgic trip! Knowing about this from a recent Toy Expo, we stopped by this location not knowing what to expect. It was a exactly what you would expect from those that love toys as much as us. There was so much to see and you had to move items to make sure you didn't miss a thing. There were folks in the store, laughing, hanging out and it made it seem so much more welcoming. There are cases of items as well as items just on shelves and we definitely got lost in time. When it came time to pay - they hooked it up with great prices and we really look forward to coming back to see what else we may have missed.”

1159 W A St, Hayward“After years of not playing Call of Duty, my PS4 was just sitting collecting dust. Needless to say I all of a sudden wanted to play and drove out to this location. Val was our helper and as soon as we walked in, we were immediately greeted even though she had about 7 other customers ahead of us. She was running back and forth attending everyone in order. Not sure if she was the only one scheduled but it was pretty busy around 4 pm. She killed it! Found the games everyone was looking for through the computer and running to the section where they are located. Some she even knew precisely where they were located without the help of the computer like WHATTTTT! She helped me sign up for the rewards program they offer with my phone number and even gave my discount that same day. Val you are a superstar and wish you the best of luck with the company. Please shout her out or give some kind of recognition she deserves.”
“Loved the Expansion!?? Great to see how this business continues to thrive and grow ✊? For anyone or body looking to collect or re-up on any Marvel Legends figures or whatever your interest(s) are within what they sell This is Thee Place! ✨???✌?”
“I have come in several times! I love this place! I live in Pleasanton CA. We recently had a toy store open up in town. It's nice, but my grand daughter and a couple of her friends started to go in and were kicked out because they had starbucks drinks (all with lids) and the woman there was quite rude about it. That doesn't make me want to go there.! Montclair Toyhouse is the place to go!! Always friendly and helpful!”
“They usually have whatever PS5 games im looking for, and they're definitely cheaper than buying brand new. They don't give you alot whenever you wanna sell your games, but besides that i go there to buy pretty much all my games. And whenever a new release comes out that i want l go here because they stay open till midnight for new AAA releases. They also have some cool hoodies and collectibles.”
“Have everything for parties. Some things are worth the price and others will find it somewhere else. I got a sale of the buffet set for $35 plus some summer cups for $1 each. The store was well stocked. Will definitely come back again”
“Great little Gem added to the Castro Valley Community. Bought my son a basketball and he loved it. Great selection of toys for little ones and lots of nice educational stuff and high quality. Highly recommend and love supporting small businesses”
