Took my daughter to this place, not knowing what to expect or prices. I thought price to have a bear made from scratch was decent (I was expecting more!!!), had a fun time, it was busy on the weekend but when isn't meadowhall at the weekend! Lots of different outfits, shoes, wheelchairs, bags and a big variation of accessories to choose from! Really enjoyed and will be coming again!!! And also can make a birth certificate for your creation and our bear is called candy floss!!! @mantiumofficial @tektonik0 @t.a.g.0114

Not impressed. This was a Christmas gift for someone and the certificate arrived bent and torn which with how much they charge, I expect better. I bought both the large and mini highland cow bear and the mini one doesn't even include a certificate. Again considering the price (£10 for such a tiny bear) and that's the sale price, I would at least expect a certificate with it. They were for someone who has lost their pets so I wanted the name and date of birth on each certificate but now I can't. I also ordered the bears separately then straight afterwards noticed they had a deal where you can order both together with a better price and by the time they got back to my query to cancel order so I could order the bundle, they told me it was too late to cancel l, I did try calling the store and they didn't answer.

Absolutely appalled by what was going on in this store tonight. On arriving we were told 'any teddy on the bottom shelf with a red tag is £10' could not have been more clear. We didn't go in with the intention of getting a Teddy but at £10 thought why not. Instead of looking at the more expensive (and more appealing) teds we went for the £10 range. So the Teddy gets stuffed and clothed. Took to the counter, 'that's £32 please'. Why? Because they didn't tell us its part of an offer with a full priced Teddy. This also happened to an old gentleman and what I presume was his granddaughter, he preceeded to take the teddy back after learning the real price. So was this spiel planned to get more sales, or did half of your staff actually think there was a sale on the teddy's... fuming doesn't come close to how me and my partner felt, but not wanting to upset our daughter, who had already overheard the price, we left with one expensive teddy. Absolutely disgusting sale tactics over a stuffed toy! Who would have thought it! If you're the manager of this store you've either trained your staff a little too well In the art of 'sales', or they've had no training whatsoever and don't know the prices of a teddy in the shop they work at. Unbelievable.

Busy store, but the staff were incredibly friendly and took their time with my kids despite this. We got two birthday bears where we only had to pay their age, so I can’t comment on the price of the other bears, but there was a wide variety to choose from. A large selection of bear clothes/accessories available for anyone wanting to purchase these for their bears.

Amazing experience for my little one. The greeter was super accommodating, the filler was very interactive with my daughter and she left feeling it was HER moment. Well done all staff here. 5☆☆☆☆☆

Brooke went above and beyond!! It was my son's first birthday bear and she was fantastic in helping with a voice box. Thank you so much Brooke, credit to the team/company!

Absolutely disgusted with the ‘so called’ supervisor. One of the workers referred me to her and she had an appalling attitude with me. She snatched the bear out of my hand when asked to stitch a hole as if it was an inconvenience to her. I asked after a 10 minute wait how long the bear would be, not out of frustration out of curiosity. The worker went into the back and left the door open slightly, from this I could hear “it’s a bear for god sake, tell her to wait.” I feel this was unreasonable to say as I did not have an attitude nor was I getting frustrated, I was just wondering as I wasn’t told how long it would be before. Won’t be coming here again!! Lost a customer!!!
