We list 17, across 12 neighborhoods. Listings come from public sources and our own checking — we don't take payment for placement, and we add more as we find them.
Four sit beyond the city line: RVA Naturals in Gayton Crossing out in Henrico, The Toy Shoppe in North Chesterfield, Mom 2 Mom in Sandston, and Tiny Tim's Trains & Toys in downtown Ashland. All are an easy drive from the city.
Some do and some are in-store only. Where a shop has its own site or shopping links, we point to them on the shop's page — always their own official links, never paid.
