Build A Bear

This is a lovely little shop, my children always want a peek everytime we go into town.
There are a lovely selection of cuddly toys and animals you can choose from, with an amazing selection of accessories, such as coats, glasses, shoes etc.
Staff are always very helpful, they tend to be fairly young and excited about the place.
It’s a lovely set up for young children and there is a little bit of magic with the heart and birth certificate you give your creation.
This isn’t the cheapest gift idea but if you are looking for a nice pressie with a budget of at least £20 then you can get something lovely from here which comes in a lovely large expensive looking box.

This is situated right outside one of the main entrances to the Drake Circus Mall
Always fairly busy with jostling youngsters eager to add to their build a bear collection (my daughter included)
A wide range of bears to be had here aswell as their astounding collection of accessories — designer trainers, sunglasses & wigs to name a few. It always gives me a good chuckle to see the latest addition to the collection.
I have to say these shops are well over the top — But a promise of a visit keeps the little ones happy whilst you drag them around town getting all your bits done. In my opinion thats priceless.
Staff always seem keen & eager to please — a lot of young student type staff seems to be the order of the day
