Chris CooksonJuly 16, 2015The lease on this place is up in early 2016. If you've always wanted to ride that ferris wheel, now might be your last chance to do it. They also added an arcade that you can only access by elevator.
Richard RevillaOctober 26, 2014A truly unique toy experience. Crowded as heck so don't expect to get much shopping done. The Lego fixtures dinosaur barbie house and ferris wheel are it's main attractions.
LuisOctober 6, 2010Fantastic, clean bathroom. Looking for a public restroom in times square that won't skeeve you out? this is it. Oh yea, they sell some toys and stuff here, too if you're into that sort of thing.- WicksnCandlesticksFebruary 28, 2014The Willy Wonka is located inside the Toys ‘R Us store in Times Square. It is filled with edible designs like life sized candy mushrooms! Guests can eat sweets like Fun Dip, Nerds & Laffy Taffy!
EdwulfJune 22, 2015Closes at 11pm. 3 floors of toys and candy. Be sure to stop here for your souvenirs for your kids (or for yourself, adults like toys too)
Justin DauseAugust 26, 2014If you're an out of stater make sure if you're ever in NYC (or even if you're a native) go to Toys "R" Us! It's a fun experience, and allows you to let out your inner child.
Mandar ShidhoreSeptember 2, 2013Buzzing and full of happy children, this place is right at the Times Square. It is a 3 story toy store with a giant wheel on the inside. A must visit if you have a toddler with you.
Cadiea SchusterJanuary 13, 2014Indoor Ferris wheel. Huge dinosaur. Lots of fun people and things to do and look at and play with, for the young and young at heart. Just have some patience at the doors when entering and leaving.
Rewan PartiNovember 7, 2015Make sure you go to the 2nd floor to see the Dinosaurs! Check prices online, often store prices are higher than advertised online. They will match it for you.
PayPalFebruary 26, 2013Buying the best toys and games just got easier. Pay for your purchases using PayPal:
Sandy CMay 13, 2015My 3 year old niece was very entertained here for 3 hours: Ferris wheel ride, moving T. rex, endless toys, and ice cream. Great afternoon of babysitting brought out the kid in me : )
Sean SmithOctober 4, 2015One of my favorite places to take out of townies. Always love seeing the Ferris wheel, the animatronic T-rex, the Lego section, and the candy store.
Chris CritelliDecember 7, 2015If you want to see the iconic store you better hurry. It is closing after the holiday season this year. It is always packed this time of year so expect huge crowds.
The Negotiation Institute (TNI)May 23, 2012Two of the most difficult people to negotiate with: (1) A child filled with sugar and (2) A tired child, crying because they "want it all" from the biggest, most fantastic Toys R Us on the planet.
Erika AAugust 27, 2011The Giant indoor Ferris Wheel makes even a quick peak worth it! If you have kids or just ride it, they also take a picture for you so be sure to smile. Say Frommage:-D
The Corcoran GroupDecember 17, 2010If you want to ride the ferris wheel, be sure to get there early and book a time. Make sure you check out the Jurassic Park section. For the kid in all of us.
Fahad H.May 9, 2015Three floors with party section. I loved the place and gifts all over the shop 🇺🇸👍
Social News NetworkJune 18, 2012GO HERE! Ride the indoor ferris wheel, eat candy like you're Willy Wonka, play in the life-size Barbie house, and scream at the moving T-Rex. AGE DOESN'T MATTER HERE;)
Insil KimJuly 10, 2015cool place to go with your children! but beware of your money.... you might loose a lot😀
Leigh-Ann RJuly 16, 2013I've been coming here for YEARS, and I can say that this visit I was actually disappointed. You can no longer go to the upstairs of the Barbie House, and the dinosaur (at least today) did not roar.
dara lynneAugust 9, 2011Take advantage of the friendly staff to find what you're looking for so that you don't spend hours wandering around aimlessly. Gift wrap starts at $6 per item on the bottom floor.
Douglas SouzaNovember 25, 2014Try to go in alternative hours to avoid the crowd. Good for young children and the olds as well!!!
Abi PanickerAugust 23, 2014Pretty freaking amazing compared to your standard toys are us, ferris wheel in the middle of store might be an indicator
BONNIE FAUSTJuly 11, 2011Take a ride on the Ferris Wheel inside...all proceeds go to charity. It's a great place to kill 15 minutes or 2 hours, especially if you are waiting for a table at Virgils BBQ around the corner. Read more
Grégory Lemaire Van H.February 11, 2014Amazing! never saw a toystore like this one! the dinosour from Jurassic Park is just too cool to see - must visit!
Robert StillwagonJune 20, 2014I'm still waiting 8 days after reaching out to toys r us on every channel of communication they have and I still haven't receive any communication or a phone call from someone who could help.
Anirudh HariAugust 9, 2015This is like the biggest shop ever, right? Amazing. But they need maybe more signs. Maybe a map would be great!
Madison StahlJuly 27, 2013The workers all have an attitude. And one of the workers told us we had to come back to go on the Ferris wheel at the time we got. We came back ten min before our time&she said we didn't have to wait
TheForsakenDecember 4, 2011Charles Lazarus initially started Children's Supermart (which would evolve into Toys "R" Us) in Washington, DC during the post-war baby boom era in 1948 as a baby-furniture retailer.
- Justin DauseAugust 26, 2014Arcade games, Ferris wheel, Candy, Animated T - Rex, Barbie house, Electronics, etc - There is something for the whole family.
April GibsonJanuary 26, 2013Make your own apron and decorate your own cookie. It's a whole lot of fun!!!
GadgetOctober 7, 2010I love that Ferris wheel inside the store. All those characters hanging off the ceiling too. This is not just a store it's a family outing.- High Quality Tours HQTDecember 18, 2015Make sure to take a ride on the Ferris Wheel!!! Very sadly Toys R Us is closing soon so don't miss out!!! #toursofnyc #highqualitytours #nyc #iloveny Read more
New York HabitatApril 26, 2012Step into a world where movie & games become real! This HUGE store even has a Ferris wheel inside!! Come on parents feel like a child again!- The Corcoran GroupSeptember 24, 2010It’s like the movie came to life and you can grab all the candy you want…although you have to pay for it and there’s no golden ticket. We gonna grab some sluggie gummies, nerds and sprees.
Lars MerkMay 26, 2013Sunday morning before noon is best time to take the little one on the Ferris wheel!
Radio City Christmas SpectacularOctober 6, 2011If it’s not in Santa’s workshop, you’re sure to find it here. Take a magical ride on the Ferris wheel!
Bloomberg TV HDDecember 12, 2012Barbie may be in her 5th decade... but she sold $245 million worth of merchandise in North America in 2011, beating Iron Man ($200M), Harry Potter ($160M) and Pokemon ($120M)
- H AApril 15, 2011Bring your receipts for returns! Leave your hummer-sized strollers at home! Fastest moving checkout is on the 1st floor ... most of the people on line are tourists buying just 1 small souvenir item.
Monica LinkApril 14, 2011Fun place to take kids, but be ready to buy. They make everything look cool! There's rides and games inside too!
BBYSeptember 18, 2013The only place I found in TimesSquare for a bathroom! 2nd floor. Love this place.
Charles GuerreroAugust 13, 2015Overwhelmingly big and crowded. But they probably have what you're looking for.
