106 Broadway, Hillsdale“Nice selection, very fair prices. I went during the black Friday sale and got a good selection of PSone games. Even thought they were busy, they offered great service.”
“Without a doubt, hands down, the best hobby shop I've been to. They support local racers by having a 1/10 turf track and an indoor Mini-Z Race track. I give them all of my business when I can. The guys at the shop are friendly and answer any questions you have, no matter how simple they are. All are welcome at races too, from complete beginners to advanced/pro drivers. Full line of products, from RTRs, Kits, Minis, replacements, upgrades, and most importantly, EXPERIENCE! Go experience for yourself!”

574 Valley Rd, Wayne“Absolute gem of a store. One of a kind. The employees are friendly and knowledgeable. They've ordered specific comics for me to the shop. They've kept me updated when they arrive. Fun store to walk around and get lost in nostalgia. Wouldn't get my comics from any other shop. Even if I was in a life-threatening situation, I'd still pick Zapp! Comics. Thank you to everyone who works there! Zap to the extreme!!”
“The Paper Store very nice unique items for the holidays or any occasion. I bought a few Christmas gifts, the prices are reasonable and the quality is good. Also, the customer service was great and a speedy checkout.”

321 Broad Ave #125, Ridgefield“GIRLY and expensive. Good place for kids or teenagers who like K-pop singers logo goods or small Korean gadgets. Over priced but has decent foot traffic to non-Koreans and Korean kids alike.”
“Convenient, helpful and very pleasant staff. Doesn't have everything that Staples does BUT you'll always find what you need. So thankful that this small business thrives and is supported by our community.”
“I have purchased from them many times and every single time I have been elated with the cards and the quality provided. Their prices are fair and owners and very reasonable and knowledgeable. I read a bad review and I personally witnessed the interaction and the guy wanted a cheaper price and was been rude and Jess handled it with kindness and class. I would recommend this shop to anyone who is a serious buyer and wants quality products.”
“So far this was the easiest purchase after days of looking for a desk chair. All the details I needed about the chair were easy to find. Hoping the delivery will be as professional.”
9AM - 9PM
1156 US-46, Woodland Park“Who doesn't love a bookstore! Thank goodness BN still exists! Otherwise, I would not be able to share my love of books and bookstores with my grandchildren. The best part for all of us (well, for me) is the toy section (telescopes, microscopes, you name it, it's there). The Grands also loved the children's book selections.
I must also mention the staff! They were very helpful and pleasant. In a world where customer service is almost nonexistent, I must give compliments where they are due! Please keep up the good work and great customer service!
Training is everything!”
“It is TONS OF TOYS! And it's much more organized than it appears at first glance. The staff is very willing to be helpful, but not at all pushy. They have anything retro or new that I was able to ponder while searching for gifts. The have gift wrapping at checkout, and are again, so helpful... I hope this helps you. Good call if you choose to go there.”

Clifton Commons 395 Route 3 East, Clifton“I never thought I would like reading this much before I discovered the store! Now it becomes my go to. Friendly, knowledgeable staff, and in-store Starbucks! What more can you ask for?”

260 Bergen Turnpike, Little Ferry“I loved going to artbox when I was in Korea so I was really excited to see one in the states now! It's a small shop but they have a nice selection of cute goods and kawaii stationary with nice prices!”
“So happy to have discovered Benny's! The products were very well received by the participants at our Women's Seder (stencils used for painting Timbrels) and I found the quality to be excellent. Shipping was very fast and prices are quite fair. I’m glad I found Benny’s! I will definitely order again.”
“Great selection for the whole range of childhood! Also lots of options in terms of prices and helpful staff. I will always remember the experience of shopping JKA during COVID times - I would just call or go up to the door, give them an idea of what I was looking for, and the staff made great picks for me!”

Haven't been there in a. while, So it may have changed. They used to have the candy from back in the day. I don't find it as much anymore.”

1 Garden State Plaza Blvd, Paramus“Very nice custom Service by Matt! Very cool Isabella outfit from animal crossing too! It was cute and he gave a the two small pieces me need for free instead of charging us 9$!”
“We were in town for a wedding. It was raining and I needed to keep my 2 1/2 year old grandson busy. I saw Tons of Toys was only a 10 minute drive away so we went. It was perfect. We spent about an hour in the store looking. The cashier lead us to the finger skateboards. He was so polite and patient with my grandson. We left with a pack of skateboards and a rubber snake. Fun times.”
“I have been dealing with Ralph and Toytastik for years now. Super friendly and knowledgeable. He’s usually able to get me anything I ever want at a reasonable price and he’s very trustworthy. Highly recommended!”
“Exceptional quality and customer service. Beautiful pieces from overseas, hand knit, one of a kind charming options. Christening outfits and every day wear. I highly recommend for that high-end gift.”

1640 NJ-23, Wayne“Kind of jammed with boxes, one of two registers didn't work and they over charged me for something with the sticker clearly marked. Wasn't the best experience.
Update- Much better! I'm happy these didn't have self checkout, like the other location near us. Fun stock of stuff you want but don't need, polite staff and clean store.”
10:00 AM - 8:00 PM
260 Bergen Turnpike, Little Ferry“I absolutely adore this place! I went here with my great niece Claire and she wanted to look around for a lot of cute things, and this was the perfect place to go! My niece bought a cute alarm clock, and it is adorable! It was also high quality, and it was easy to use! And, they had very nice tins with adorable flower prints for my sewing supplies. A 10/10 store! I definitely recommend y'all take a peek!”
“Nice place to work online with a laptop or a smartphone. SB B&N is another reason that makes this place enjoyable, though the SB app isn't working here and we need to use B&N app, instead. ^^;”
“Hollywood Heros has two things going for it. 1) An amazing, incredible selection of toys, new and vintage. 2) The nicest owners possible. My 12 y.o. son is a huge Star Wars collector, and he discovered HH on Yelp about. year ago. We've gone maybe a dozen times now even though it's an hour round trip. We often find rare and impossible to get items here and if it's not on the shelves, it's probably in their basement, so just ask. We became friendly with Jordan and Val on our trips there, and Jordan has been especially gracious. He always has time to talk, answer questions, and be friendly. Even when we come to just window shop, we still have great talks. Recently my son was looking for an ARC-170 gunship, and Jordan and Val had just gotten one in that had missing parts, and they gave it to my son as a thank you for being a loyal customer. It made my son's month. The store is a block from the central shopping district, so when we go we get bagels or Korean chicken and make a day out of it, or go the few blocks to Trader Joes. I know a Trader Joes isn't a selling point for a store specifically, but as a parent of someone who loves shopping here it's nice to have a cute town that can be part of the experience.”
9 AM - 9 PM
634 NJ-17, Paramus“I loved the store, but this guy in the cafe I believe he's name was Hector. He was very pushy and a little rude I think he needs a reality check, or to be trained again on when to take no for an answer. The girl who made my drink was awesome though a very good latte.”
“Great place. Great friendly guys. Loaded me early. Returned my call to c if I could load early. Courteous smiling people. This is gonna be a good day. Thanks Goffa!”
“I went into the GameStop in Lyndhurst to buy the New Xbox generation and Craig who was working couldn’t have helped me more. A great employee with an even better attitude. I will ensure that I come back to the GameStop in Lyndhurst to do business because of employees like that. He couldn’t have been more respectful and cooperative.”
“Omar's store is great. It seems that no matter your favorite collectibles fandom, they will have it here: dolls, video games and consoles, Star Wars, board games, sports cards and Pokemon cards. Want Squish mallows or a Croc charm? They got it. They also have an array of party supplies.
In my experience, the greatest part is how he treats the kids who come for the collectible cards. When they come to buy, sell and trade, he treats them with *respect*, honesty and integrity. If they come to trade, he'll tell them what the real trade-in value is. If they come into sell, he'll tell them the true selling value. If they come in with their card binders and they like to collect a certain kind of card (eg various kinds of Pikachu cards), he'll recognize and respect that. He'll leave those alone and won't try to persuade your child to sell them. He knows what each kid is into and will keep cards that they request behind the counter for them for a week.
Other stores' proprietors treat kids with derision, condescension and disdain. But Omar is kind and interacts with the kids in a light-hearted and respectful manner. I can't stress that enough and that's what will keep me and my Pokemon-loving son coming back!”
