Build A Bear

Over priced stuffed toys. Having a heart to put inside it makes it worth the cash?
A pair of ‘bear shoes’ cost more than real baby shoes in Mothercare I got for my niece a few months ago, haha
Box is nice. bear sized. raises eyebrows

went in here for the first time a few weeks ago.
WOW!
brings out the big kid in everyone.
Feels a little Overpriced though.
but I guess that’s what you pay for in the atmosphere and the choices you get.
The extras are expensive.
the clothes are as pricey as clothes for real kids.
very cute though. love the box and birth certificate touch.
The staff are very enthusiastic about their bears and the lady that but in the ‘heart’ of my friends bear was very convincing that a wish on the heart would be magical for the receiver of the bear! hehe.
very cute.
I have already bought my mum a voucher for the store for Xmas… and will definitely buy more when my children’s birthdays come along. :-)
draw back is the price…
but you pay for the individuality of it.
I’d recommend £25 minimum in a gift voucher.

My little girl absolutely adores this shop and I can see the attraction. Getting to make your own bear, choose it’s clothes and name it for a birth certificate must be very exciting for children. You can choose a range of differently priced pears/​stuffed toys to make, but be warned! Once your children dress their bears, they become very expensive. Some of the clothes cost as much as what you would pay for a newborn. The shop holds parties that I know are very popular, and from my experience the staff are very friendly and approachable. A welcome addition to the Golden Square.

A great store if you have children or if you are a bear lover, this store is a reasonable size, giving you enough space to do what you need. The prices of some items can be a bit much but are very good quality and will last you a lifetime. This shop allows you to choose a bear, watch him be filled with stuffing that he requires and then choose an outfit for him to go home in; you will also get your very own birth certificate for him/​her. There are many different ways you can bring your bear to life as they have many accessories for all types of bears. The store also caters parties for all young children you can find more information out at

OK it is expensive I think. BUT the staff were so lovely and so interested in making my daughters visit one to remember that I have to give it 4 stars. They really enjoyed helping her choose stuff for her bear and spent a lot of time with her. I think it’s possibly worth the extra money for such a special time.
