Go Bananas

We love this place! My kids play with toys, while I study their interests for gift lists. Their toys are not the cheap, plastic brands you see elsewhere. Their book section is large, and I appreciate seeing new things there. I love how the store is set up, and I love that it’s inside the Brambletown Town Center. We can walk there, the kids can play, and we can browse other shops. The store is very clean, and the employees are always friendly.

Adore Go Bananas! Their customer service is outstanding, and they have a great selection of unique, quality toys. #SupportLocal!

This place is so fun to just browse around! I found some great books for my lil nieces and nephew! They also have an area where kids can play.

This place is so cute! I really think that they need to put «toy store» on their sign in addition to their name because «Go Bananas» doesn’t even begin to explain what is in the store and you can’t really see in if you’re driving by.

I shop here all the time and always want to support local businesses. They have a great area for the kids to play with trains and some other toys while you shop. Overall a great neighborhood store. Brambleton is lucky to have them.

This place is so neat! They have a wonderful selection of toys and books of quality. No cheap stuff here. They also have samples on the floor so kids can try them out while you shop. My kids didn’t want to leave. The staff was very friendly and helpful.

Love this store — so bummed they closed Leesburg, because its hard for me to get to this location. But totally worth it when I do. They have a great selection of toys and everyone is always so friendly. Yes it can be a little more expensive but the experience is infinitely better than TRU, and it’s a small business.

We visited here shortly after our older daughter was born. It is in a great location and I love the selection of toys. Most are very educational, lots of m&d, hape, and calico critters. However, the prices… ouch. I would definitely checked amazon as you can get the same products shipped to your house in 2 days for cheaper than 99% of the items in the store. The service is fine and it is in a great location so I have no doubts that it will do just fine.

This store is packed with unique toys you can’t find at a regular toys store, but they are expensive. That’s not why i gave it 2 stars. I knocked off 3 stars because the girls who work there need to take some courses in customer service. The manager is very rude. She gets annoyed if you ask her a question. They don’t even thank you or say have a nice day after your purchase. The sign on the door says they are looking for bubbly personalities to work there. Hopefully they are planning to replace the ones that are currently there, starting with the manager.
****you are confusing me with another unsatisfied customer. I was not there during any sidewalk sale. I did not talk to any owner. This shows you it is not an isolated incident. The girls need to learn basic customer service skills. I’ve since been in there and can’t say I saw any difference. ****

After dance class today my kids happened to notice the open doors to Go Bananas as we were walking back to the car and finally noticed it was a toy store! It took them long enough. ;) Of course they wanted to go in. Lots of hands on toys for the kids to touch. Many educational toys and some that were not. I think my kids just added a few items to their wishlist so I imagine we will be back to do more than take a peek at some point soon. :)

This toy store is fantastic — the only one we visit any more. They skew heavily to the educational toys but have plenty of fluff as well. The staff are typically high schoolers but friendly enough.
They have a neat birthday register system that I know parents (er…Moms) enjoy. Plenty of toys are out to be played with for the kids to enjoy and get to know. We often visit nearby restaurants and afterwards a must-​do is for the kids to browse the store, they know they’ll come away with some little toy.
I do not know the operators, but I’m sure glad they’re there — a draw unto itself, it’s also always fun just to head in and see what’s there.
