A beloved Victoria toy store is looking for a new home after operating out of its downtown location for more than 13 years. Cherry Bomb Toys is moving from its location along Broad Street near Johnson Street since the building was purchased by a new owner.
Cherry Bomb Toys is moving from its location along Broad Street near Johnson Street since the building was purchased by a new owner.
"We've been fortunate to have landlords that have enjoyed having an investment, and loving the store in here," said Candice Woodward who owns the shop with her husband, B.
"Now we have ones that are moving their business in so we have to find a new place," she said.
The Woodwards live in the apartment above the store.
"Our kids have grown up here. It's hard," she said.
The century-old heritage building houses more than just a toy store, it's also home to the National Toy Museum of Canada.
It was a hidden gem that brought in guests from all over the world, and it took a long time for operators to feel like everything had been set up perfectly, according to B.
