Finally came to my favorite shop in person after ordering from our home state for several years! It’s just as magical as I imagined. They even had special inventory out that wasn’t on the website. We loved it all! Staff member at the desk was lovely as well… showing us how certain toys worked & allowing our kids to be excited and touch many beautiful toys without stress or alarm. Thank you for staying magical!

STOP SCROLLING....and SHOP at Merci Milo! We heard about this gem from Shay Mitchell's IG. Little did we know, this was in our Highland Park neighborhood and it was so easy to get to. The adorable storefront is in what looks like a cozy cabin and it is filled with so many magical toys for our little one. They have a wonderfully curated book selection and so many Montessori toys! Support this small business the next time you need to buy a little person gift! ?

My darling niece has a habit of inviting me to my nephews' birthday parties a day before, which leaves me no time to shop for a gift. (Once Amazon saved the day and delivered it to her door while my nephew was opening his presents.) I honestly have no clue where to buy toys for kids. Target is always a hassle, so I was thrilled when I stumbled upon Shop Merci Milo while walking around my neighborhood. This charming store is located inside a converted garage. It's adorable and resembles the ideal playroom. The owner did a great job of creating a welcome environment for children. The shop is organized and you'll find toys from around the world, books, clothing, shoes, accessories, and unique gifts. They even have educational toys, which I prefer to give. I'm so glad I discovered this place. Now I don't have to stress out when I need a present at the last minute. *Online ordering also available shopmercimilo.com *Residential street parking.

My son and I were excited to check out this store, and went today, on a Friday. The store was closed; a sign was posted saying that they'd return at 1:05. We waited 35 minutes. It's 1:20pm. No one is here. Unfortunately we're headed home having wasted a good chunk of time.

Used to be a favorite until they started promoting kids drag story hour. Will no longer patronize this shop. Plenty of other toy shops out there.

Finally got a chance to come in here. It didn't disappoint, from what I had seen on Instagram. I'd love to come here anytime I need special gifts for my kid or other little ones! I hope they find a way to stay open in LA, I would be bummed if it closed like they've been alluding on ig.

This is one of the most whimsical and beautiful toy shops I have ever had the pleasure of visiting. The curation and selection is inspiring! It makes me wish I was a kid again. We love shopping here and hope to visit the new Portland location when we’re that area. The customer service is wonderful as well. Thank you for all you do! <3

I’ve been coming to Merci Milo for years and love the curation of toys, art, and books that you can’t find anywhere else. Merci Milo makes a big city like LA feel small and local and you can feel the love that was poured into the creation of this store. They also host interesting pop-ups with authors and other artists which is always such a delight.

A true Gem of a kids toy store. So many precious high quality items to choose from. I will definitely be back to shop for my child and to buy gifts as well. I have shopped here in person and I have shopped online and picked up from the LA location as well. Highly recommended.

Long time shopper, first time reviewer here! I love Merci Milo so much! Have shopped here for many years and love all the items they carry- such a fun and varied collection of treasures. Also, the customer service is always so impressive which is very refreshing in a time where it seems like a lost art ❤️
