So many awesome things to look at. Definitely takes you back to your childhood. There is an arcade with some pretty cool games that have unlimited play. A wall dedicated to the highest score. You can buy an alcoholic beverage if you’re so inclined. Small gift shop with some great options. My husband, two boys and I had a GREAT time!

It was an awesome time, machines are awesome, the details are amazing, the creator is also an incredible person, great space to have fun with friends and get a drink, then dive into nostalgia. A great unique experience you need to try.

Always a good time. Free play on old school games is a great way to have fun! A blast from the past

Stumbled upon this place just last night while walking off our dinner... what an awesome way to end the evening with family! Almost brought my sisters and I to tears with all the memories of our childhood. Caleb was a great host and a pleasure to meet. Well worth the price of admission!

The owners name is Caleb and a very kind person at that his place shows amazing old school items that are hard to come by now days if your looking for somewhere amazing to visit then come to the Texas toy muesuem

Lots of toys to look at and some to play with. Free pinball and video games to play. Comic books, action figures, playscapes, and lots of starships and fighter planes hanging from the ceiling. Well worth the cost of admission.

This was a good way to entertain the kids, the entrance was a bit pricy. Its small and it got warm since it was upstairs and didnt feel like the AC was on.

I absolutely love this place. Caleb is great. Nicest guy. The museum is a sight to behold. Great for kids and adults. The arcade selection is top notch. You can also buy toys there too. I highly recommend this place

Amazing walk down memory lane!

Fun place to visit. Lots of stairs but worth the trek. Brought back lots of memories.

Great place to visit it you like old school toys

Most amazing museum and toys from the 80s ever and it only gets better

My fiance is a huge kid at heart and we both wanted to take a trip back to our youth. This place is small and its cluttered with toys, games, etc but its good for the price you pay. We got a Groupon deal and stayed for about 5 hours in the meuseum. We played Mario, Mario Party, Street Fighter, Mortal Kombat, Pac man and etc. Its free play and you can stay as long as they are opened. The staff was friendly and you can buy some of the items if you like. Awesome day!

Good plays to have fun!We really enjoyed!!!!

Super cool place with some impressive retro toy displays, as well arcade and console games. Also has a small but surprisingly well stocked comic shop. Well worth a visit.

Fun place. $8 entry helps them by more toys . :-)

We stumbled upon this shop while exploring South Congress and I am so glad that we did. They have a toy museum you can visit for $9 or a small bar with beer and wine. If you buy the museum ticket or a drink you can play in the vintage arcade. We had so much fun showing our kids the old games and playing! Make sure you stop by!

Not as big as thought it would be but we still had fun.

Nice collection of vintage toys but a little smaller then expected

Great place for any toy collector or anyone that had toys. So everyone. They also have a selection of vintage toys to buy at very reasonable prices. Best souvenir you can get. Free play vintage arcade machines too and a bar coming soon.

Though its small, you have to appreciate what theyre doing. I loved this place !! It definitely brought back a tidal wave of memories.

Amazing trip through the past via toys we played with! Especially amazing selection of 80s and 90s toy lines. He-Man, GI Joe, Star Wars, etc! Fun for the whole family!

Not a Toy museum, Comic shop with an arcade. Busted our joy bubble

Cool vibe, great collections...relive your childhood

Great! Lots of fun!

Good collection of toys! Toy lovers will love it. Unlimited video game playing is also nice.I would go for 4/5 star if they organize in some more attractive way.

There wasnt much there I enjoyed. I took my nephews 12 and 16. The only things they liked were the arcade games.

I love seeing all my classic vintage toys from. My child his and letting my imagination run wild. Great thing to do for $10. They have a limited amount of toys for sale and a video game room. Caleb is my hero.

Really fun place to see old the toys we played with as kids

Its really cool seeing all the toys and very rare edition items. The back room with the games arent worth paying 8 dollars though. Just walk through enjoy what you see.

Brought back a lot of my childhood memories...

Basically someones personal collection, with lots of stuff for sale, offered as a museum/nfp, with none of the history of the actual toys, companies, or series. The free play arcade, which you can use if you pay for the museum, and comic book store is ok. There are a few really nice cabinets, even some 4 player. Overall, I think as a museum, it doesnt really meet the criteria. If you are looking for history or facts, you will probably be disappointed.

Toys from the 80s and 90s and modern! They have a really nice collection of vintage arcade games in the back that are free if you pay the admission into the museum! The toys theyre brought a lot of memories back and I met a lot of pleasant people. Great place to hang out and just enjoy the Nostalgia.

This place could be called a toy collection at best. Two rooms of stuff a guy in his forties never threw out and a handful of barely working old arcade games is not a museum and not worth the price. The displays contained almost no information about the items and showed a complete lack effort in attempting to create a museum for these toys. Do not waste your time or money. The only upside was the clean bathroom.

Excellent and fun place to visit. If you played with toys growing up itll definitely take you back

This place is a toy lovers dream. The price is just right for a trip down nostalgia lane. Mostly 80s and 90s stuff, so dont bother bringing the younglings, the only hands on stuff is the arcade and the games are too dated for kids to really enjoy them. I was told they are expanding and getting a beer&liquor license. Can you imagine this place with a board game room?

This place brought back so many memories!!!

Very interesting and exciting place filled with tones of toys and video games. If you are fan of Star Wars and heroic characters you should definitely visit this place.

Had a fun and unique experience!

Must go!! So many nastolgic toys, unlimited free retro arcade use and not to mention you can buy beer there too!

Fairly small but cool to check out. Loved the arcade games!

Loved this gem just east of |- 35

Great time hanging out here! Good craft selection and fun games

Small place but loud of history you can feel.

Great toys and a big flash back for me.

Awesome childhood memories

Lots of fun strolling down memory lane from the 80s and 90s. Tons of cool Star Wars toys.

Amazing place, put together with a ton of love. Also, where else can you drink a beer while perusing museum exhibits?

A small yet delightful stop for toy enthusiasts of any age and from any era. Truly a little something for everyone.

What a hidden gem this museum this is! My husband and I had never heard of it until the free museum day, and decided to check it out, what a fun place it was! Perfect place to take your kids and lots of nostalgia from way back when!

Its $9 for admission and its only 1 room but its a great room and I would pay it again just for the video game collection alone.

Great spot to relive a bit of your childhood with an amazing collection of vintage toys. Free arcade games are super fun as well!!!

Too expensive for such small collection

Austin Toy Museum may be tiny but packs a punch with memories. Hospitality was great and so were the free play video games!

Small but really cute collection! Unfortunately most of the retro games are broken/have missing parts that prevents them from working right

Really fun store that brought me back to my 80s and 90s childhood. Although I did not get the chance to tour the Museum, the main room was well designed and filled with some legendary arcade machines. Everything is in really good condition. Thanks for indulging my childhood!

Neat that they moved downtown from the old east Austin location. Compact location but right in the middle of everything. Entry into the museum is $8. They also have some loose toys for sale at the front.

This place is awesome!

Great place, a little small but is absolutely awesome. Made me feel like I was a kid in the 80s again.

We always hit up this place on trips to Austin, I love seeing all the toys from my childhood. The people are chill and nice too!

Nice atmosphere and good selection of toys. A little out of the way though, and there was little context given to any of the displays. Feels less like a museum than a personal collection. Still really cool though.

Nostalgia overload! The ability to play a slew of older console and arcade games is worth the price of admission alone.

What a nice place to visit and have a good time with your friends!They sell items here, like the front of the store, then the other half of the store is where the museum is and it costs $8.00 to get it and to see all the toys displayed. They have snacks if you get the munchies!I strongly recommend you to get together with friends to visit the place because is funner that way. I would definitely go back!

Very cool place. You can play vintage arcade machines in the back room.

9 dollars per person to go inside one room of antique toys. Nothing is labeled and no info is given about the toys. The price of admission does allow you unlimited free play on the arcade games.

Awesome place. Myself and my kid enjoyed it very much.They also let us play some old video games while we were there.

Super cool old toys, but its basically a one room museum. Done in 20 minutes

Hidden gem of Austin!!! So fun and quirky, with tons to see. Definitely add it to your itinerary, especially if youre an 80s or 90s kid.

Nice place. Takes me back with all the old toys.

This is a small museum/comic book store jam packed with 1980s toys displays and arcade games. For a reasonable entrance fee the games are free. We had a blast playing Ms. Pacman!

I bought a groupon for 6, would of been freaking HELPFUL if the website said it was not handicap accessible!!!I had to sit outside with my handicapped daughter due to the ridiculously steep flight of stairs. I get that the place is grandfathered and gets out of having to have accessibility but it should be clearly made known on the website.Thankfully it was a groupon, my sister and 2 boys said it definitely wouldnt have been worth full price. Of course no refund for my daughter and I since we were not able to go up. :-(

Fun place. Its a bit small but I got to take a walk down memory lane. They have an arcade as well so that was fun.

I visited years ago so its probably better now. But when I went, most of the stuff was busted.

So glad a friend mentioned this place! I rediscovered my early 90s toy collection and donated it to ATM. Really enjoyed the collections on display and what they’re doing.

A very fun place to go. Made me feel old seeing some of the toys I used to own way back when I was a kid. I took my friend with me to go and it was extremely cool. Plus theres an arcade thats got some pretty amazing cabinents some of which are pretty rare like area 51 which was a FMV light gun game. They even sell comics and some merchandise and I purchased a super Mario mug they had at the counter.

Fun! Really bvb enjoyed the 80s arcade games

This place is so cool if you are into vintage games

Loved it. Great people, great collection and great location.

Definitely a Hidden Gem! We went there just for a few minutes but we actually stayed over an hour with all the video games and just toys. A flash of great memories of childhood times. It was wonderful, my children were able to play with the Nintendo 64, and Atari game, such as centipede ,Donkey Kong and Ninja Turtle games on the arcade wish her all free by the way! Way to go Toy Museum, if we ever come back to Austin we will definitely come back.

The cost was insane for what you get.This isnt a museum, its a room with a few toys and a couple of arcade games.Seemed like the staff just wanted us to get out.Would not recommend

Really cool display of vintage toys! Plus they even have have some arcade games. Its a great way to kill an hour or so.

Definitely a must-see. I need to come back and throw money at these guys

I wouldnt call this a museum more like a room with display cases. At first you think tickets are only 8 dollars?? Hell yea thats awesome! But then you go in and see the whole museum in under 10 minutes and you feel like you paid 7 dollars more than you should have .Is the collection cool? Yes is it.Is it a museum? No it is not .

Nothing like the photos online due to new location. No signage to to let you know what you were looking at in the display. No background or relevance written next to displays as why these particular toys were relevant and worthy of display. Unless you owned the toys, you would have no idea to the characters names or play sets names. In short, nothing like a museum at all. To add injury to insult, I paid $10 for downtown parking just to go to this specific location. The perk of paying for the admission was you could play free retro arcade games after you went through;however, in the 10 minutes it took us to view the displays, they had pulled all the machines off the wall and disconnected them to work on the bar area that is not finished. It was a Saturday afternoon and they were doing this. I didnt even bother asking why and we left. Oh yeah, no bar yet and they are waiting on liquor license. They should have this prominently displayed on their website.

Neat displays of older toys, mostly 1970s to present. Theres a place where you can play original Oregon trail, Lincoln logs, Lite Brite, and some arcade games. Its neat, but small, and it doesnt take long to look at everything. There are action figures and comic books for sale.

Cool little place! Mini arcade area was a blast.

Fun place, the toys brought back many memories. Enjoyed playing the classic video games.

Very compact place. Not well taken care of. Nevertheless it has a sizeable collection of decades old toys and gaming technology. You get to play on ancient consoles and arcade games. The place does not have a disabled / Baby stroller friendly access.

This Toy Museum is an AMAZING display of history and child-like wonder that you would be crazy to pass up. My only complaint is that it can seem INSANELY small when busy, and that can contribute to VERY high temperatures. It is fun, however, to go inside, try out the vintage arcade machines (they have some OLD ones) and learn more about the items inside. All in all, this is one of the few museums that even kids would enjoy and is definitely a contribution that everyone in Austin, and abroad, should make at least once!

Very enjoyable, just a bit small

If you want to see toys from when you were a kid go here. They even had an original Millieum Falcon for sale when I went. Seriously lots of cool fun things to see.

Fun spot to relive your childhood. Lots of arcade games and consoles to play, but a lot of the stuff was only semi-functional.

A blast from the past! The kids and I loved playing the old video games! We had a friendly, family game of mortal combat arcade-style!

So sad to see some amazing toys in some of the worst display cases and tables ever constructed by anyone. I hope the museum gets some support and much need help remodeling.

Omg I so remember all of this!!!

This place is really cool. So many old toys and dioramas set up! Bring back a lot of memories from playing with toys as a kid.

This place is fantastic! Its smaller than I imagined, but the number of games, toys, etc. from the 70s and 80s in there is staggering. Fun nostalgia trip for older visitors and my young son loved it! Definitely worth visit.

Small but strong. Worth the visit for sure. Admission includes retro video multi player gaming

So many memories from my days as a child. The 9$ admission fee is a bit high, they do give military discounts - Thanks! If you are questiining the admission fee, be sure to plan your visit when you have time, and play some of the arcade games, they are unlimited free plays with admission.

Great place huge collection play Dragons Lair.
