The Pleasure Chest

The Pleasure Chest is a great, high-​end «naughty» shop that doesn’t make you feel «ew» walking inside. I’ve visited this location and the WV one, and in both cases I’ve been really pleased with my experience. The ambiance is pleasant and surprisingly comfortable… in the sense that, yes, that’s a self-​thrusting vibrator on display, but no, there aren’t posters of half-​naked women all over the place (or at all, actually). The staff are very knowledgeable and friendly, despite the fact that yes, you’re talking about sex #awkward #notreally #alladultshere
Anyway, this location is slightly bigger than the WV one and seems to have a bigger selection of toys. Most of the toys are also displayed in a way that allows you to touch-​and-​feel (but I mean, keep your pants on). They carry a good selection of high-​end brands (Lelo, JimmyJane, Fun Factory) but they’re definitely not cheap — expect to pay MSRP or higher (or, you know, fondle the products in-​store and then look online for a better deal, but you didn’t hear that from me).
The Pleasure Chest is also LGBTQ inclusive — besides the standard same-​sex couple stuff, I also noticed some toys/​prosthetics for trans folks, which I really respected.
TL;DR definitely check them out if you’d prefer not to feel like you need to take a shower after visiting a sex shop, but be prepared to shell out.

What a fantastic fun spot! Went to visit this location for a holiday Unilocal event and we had so much fun! The staff was very beautifully dressed in classy reindeer clothings, we had a hot Santa, classes were held in the basement (perfect bj, G-​spot), we got to chat with representatives of the happy factory which create top notch toys on the market and we got to hang out with wine and Unilocalers! Great night!
Thank you pleasure Chest and Unilocal for coordinating this fun night!

My partner and I went into the store looking for advise and expertise on a product. We received excellent information from Lex and felt incredibly comfortable being in the store and being able to explore without the normal grimey lurky feeling on the sales floor. We had a great experience with the sales and exploring the products within the store. For the type of products they have, they are a little spendy, but totally worth it!
Would defiantly come back and recommend to all!

Great customer service and great selection. One employee helped us past closing to choose the right products that we wanted.

You’ll find a wide range of things that tickle your fancy — or your partner’s fancy here. A little overwhelming but there’s a lot of options, which I do appreciate. Be prepared for some giggly folks in there who obviously are there to «browse», but if you know what you need and are looking for you’re golden. The staff could stand to be a little more attentive but I respect their respect for patron’s personal space.

I love how sophisticated and sexy this store was. The pleasure chest has many unique and tantalizing toys to meet all your desires. The displays and layout make you want to go on a sexual exploration of this store, I could have stayed for hours. Until next time !
oh yeah! I hear they even have workshops on Wednesdays ;)

This place is a must. Even if you dont plan to buy a thing but are just interested to learn new things about sex and things you always wanted to know. Staff will talk to you about sex as if they are talking about todays weather and make it non tabu topic so if u were shy just for a moment entering there its gonna disappear.
Another good thing: they wont sell you most expensive thing just to rip you off. They will tell you all the options and then you decide. I wish them many more years of great work!

Bee was a great help and she was cute! Had a great experience and they have a lot of kinky KOOL stuf

It’s going, it’s going, it’s going… it’s gone! This place is a home run for any person.
Amazing staff, amazing prices, amazing inventory and let’s face it… it’s a sex shop. I mean don’t get me wrong their are plenty but very few that make you feel comfortable and relaxed like this. The customer service was great and they helped with my questions and gave advice and even gave me information on upcoming workshops and events.
That’s the reason why I like this place… it’s a store that not only caters to it’s market but caters to it’s community! Also let’s talk a little bit about the store layout, now obviously there’s a security guard and a staff ready and willing but for the most part it’s a enter and browse kinda store. The toys and clothing pieces are placed around with little kick knacks and tools as shelf and table decorations.
This place was great and I’m coming back around with my camera next time to take photos lol

Nice place. Only flaw was that I had to chase around an employee to help me choose the perfect item that I had intended to buy. Ugh. And it wasn’t even busy.
They have every kind of dildo imaginable. They’re really big on the natural lubes, as well which I ended up buying one for myself.
They also offer classes on Wednesdays, I think.

Loved this spot. Once you step in you get that premium high quality novelty toys. It doesn’t feel like a cheap place you usually find around the city.

Plasce was beautiful, everything was well kept. The staff was pleasant and patient. Molly helped me and my friend and she explained everything in detail. I also checked in and got a free vibrator — how can you go wrong? I will definitely be returning for more stuff and one of the classes they provide.

This place is amazing!!! I went there for celebrate a special night, i found everything i went and new thing for new experience
The staff is very knowledgeable & happy to help you understand.
You definitely will not regret it. They also offer some great FREE classes

Largest selection of sex-​related items that I’ve ever seen under one roof.
They have female condoms, dental dams, masks, urethral sounds, spreader bars, and many MANY other items that you just don’t see at your everyday neighborhood sex shop! Furthermore, they carry QUALITY items. You won’t find the battery operated $ 5 pocket rocket knockoff in this store.
Real players and real kinksters, this is your real playground. This is where you really get that «kid in a candy store» giddy feeling! Have fun & be safe!

This place is awesome. I attended an event here a few months ago and all I can say is this place rocks.
If you are inexperienced & not sure what it is you want to buy or are looking at, don’t worry, the staff is very knowledgeable & happy to help you understand. You can find everything & anything here. So let your freak side out and pick something up. You definitely will not regret it. They offer some great FREE classes. I think it’s every last Wed of the month. You can learn some great new moves and tips to enjoy your intimate moments with your significant other. Check with them for the schedule.

I can’t rate lower than 5 stars for any place that has more butt plugs than you know what to do with.
I really can’t.
The prices does seem pricey and when I make a return trip I’m sure I’ll go into that in deeper detail.
This place has everything that you need, might need, probably never thought of, thought of but never needed, thought of wanting, and wanting but never explored kind of toys… i.e. butt plugs, feather tailed butt plugs, glass butt plugs, big butt plugs, small butt plugs, lubes, condoms, straps, dildos, clit vibrators, regular vibrators, co*k rings, sex strap for doors, dominatrix gear, sex books, Asian store associate, pretty much everything you really need or want.
Did i mention butt plugs?
No?
They have butt plugs.
This sex shop is kind of small but the way the store is configured you probably wouldn’t notice if you just came by to check the place out.
From what I read they do have free sex classes which is great because we can all be better at it even if you are a pro, super pro, or legendary. I forgot to ask the store associate about that but I definitely will the next time I make a return trip.
I’m definitely coming back to check this place out.
Again and again.

Incredibly large and wide (and I use those terms literally) selection of sex toys. The staff is very friendly. They offer free classes in their basement. It’s pretty great but when it gets crowded, it kinda stinks. The ventilation and air quality is awful when there’s a full house. As for the sex toys, it gets really expensive. Most of the vibrating dildos I saw were priced at a minimum $ 100 dollars and mostly Made in China.
The Pleasure Chest is certainly clean and very well organized but I really must disagree with their pricing options for their products. Even a bottle of lube can cost an arm and leg. It’s lube!

First time to a sex shop and this place is pretty awesome.
they offer FREE classes in NYC… THE NYC omg. Who does that?
The classes are not even boring that’s the issue. We enjoy our time sitting there and listen to the most interesting conversation which might be a bit creepy among friends.
Anyway, the place is clean and pricy for sure however not too much. I check on the price online and they are pretty much same. I would support them for all the advice and knowledge they have to offer. Sometime we forgot how different an online website vs something real on your block.
It truly is a wonderful experience coming here on an Unilocal event. :D

Nice, clean non-​sketchy adult store on the upper east. You can see and test (in a public setting) many of the products. They have items ranging from fun sex games (rated R) to vibrating dildos (rated NC-​17).
They also do private events for bachelorette parties and even charity events!

Very clean store to get your nasty self some toys to play with or without your partner.
When I think of stores like Pleasure Chest, I think about sleazy bars with equally sleazy patrons and staff. Pleasure chest is not one of those.
They might have everything you can think of from dirt cheap to mad expensive ones. Service is very professional. Will answer all of your questions and guide you through what you need to know before buying.
Whether you’re coming in to buy or just browse with your partner or girlfriends, Pleasure Chest is a great store that won’t make you feel dirty when you come out lol.
