this should be the only place you buy your sex-toys, accessories, etc. Best sex store anywhere (at least around this part of the country and probably in a lot of the country for that matter!). A sex store that actually cares about providing safe, non-toxic, sex toys...in fact it pretty much started awareness spreading about sex toy toxicity. Anyway, aside from all this the atmosphere is inviting and accepting of everyone with staff that were knowledgeable and friendly. I really enjoyed the experience of this store, especially when comparing it to others of its kind--the Smitten Kitten is leagues ahead. And as noted by others, it is vegan friendly.
Though I didn't end up buying anything, the owner was incredibly helpful in explaining the products and creating an wonderfully positive environment. The owner also deserve kudos for proudly displaying her shop's wares in the store front window rather than conforming to the seedy sex shop model. To offer vegan products on top of it all raises the bar high for all her competitors.
This place rawks!
I got a coupon for Smitten Kitten while leafleting with Why Vegans at the gay pride festival, and I just couldn't throw it away. One day, while doing some research on ebay, I discovered a new kind of vegan lip balm, Pussy Pucker Pots, and after visiting their website, saw that this hip vegan balm was sold at the Smitten Kitten. I had no excuse left not to check this place out. This lip balm is a little pricey, but it's great! The staff is friendly and helpful. The space is cheery and bright - not your usual adult toy shop. They even have two kinds of vegan lube. Their catering to all the sexy vegans out there should be applauded! Yay Smitten Kitten!
This place is the coolest, and the staff are very helpful and friendly. Several enticing options for males, and the staff have actually read the books they sell. They have 10% off on Sundays for everything except books (I think). All or almost all of the BDSM gear is available in non-leather varieties.

I love this place. The staff is very friendly and knowledgeable, and the boutique-style atmosphere is comfortable. Its progressive, responsible business model is a breath of fresh air.
