About Cheeky Monkey Toys

Welcome to our home on the web!  We are two local, family owned and operated, independent toy stores.  We have been in business in downtown Menlo Park since 1999. In 2007 we moved down the street from a smaller location to our present location a block from El Camino Real. In 2022 we expanded to two locations with the purchase of Adventure Toys & Teaching Supplies, which has been a fixture of downtown Los Altos since 1986.

We offer a wide range of products for children from newborns to adults - anyone young at heart. Knowledgeable staff are always available to help you choose age-appropriate gifts and we offer complimentary gift wrapping. We strive to make your shopping experience a joyful one.
