What else in the Village... a Sex Shop!

"Fantasy World" sex shop here seems like an old established place...I'll bet it IS old and established, probably dates from the 1980's if not earlier.

Let me see if Yelp has some reviews of it--yes, sure does, and someone refers to it as "One of the Best Sex Shops in town"==

    One of the best sex shops in the city, hands down.

    If your looking for a cute little sex shop, that doesn't have much variety, then the pleasure chest is a few door down.  On the other hand, if your looking for that good old fashion, 42nd street type sex shop, then welcome to Fantasy World.

    The store is pretty big and they have a huge assortment of sex toys.  Everything from DVD's to harnesses to whips to party favors.  I mean this place has it all.  They have every lotion and condom imaginable.  The staff is really helpful and are willing to answer any questions you might have.

    The only downside to this store is that it's not as classy as the pleasure chest, and sometimes the staff is standing outside almost trying to sell you on coming in like Cheech Marin in "From Dusk till Dawn", lol.  I must say they do take time to decorate the shops windows outside, they are like the Macy's of the sex shops.

    If your an old fashioned New Yorker that won't bother you at all.  You have to visit here at least once.

    5 stars.

    This place is huge but has a bit of a grungy feel. Might be the 80s and 90s used porn dvds that dominate the story.

    Also, one of the workers yelled at me across the room "NO PICTURES!" when I wasn't taking pictures at all, I was just holding my cell phone in my hand. Rude.

    Pretty big store. It has a wide selection of sex toys, and other paraphernalia.  They also have adult videos for almost any taste and fetish.

    The staff are discreet and don't make comments on what you're buying so you don't have to be embarrassed.  Thankfully I have never had to ask for help because I usually don't come in here looking for anything specific.

    My homegirl had to attend a bachelorette party and needed a bunch of penis-shaped water guns to hand to the other participants so she asked me to accompany her to this store.

    I never would have thought this spot would do well in the west village but it was packed when we got there.

    They have tons of sex toys like monster dils (who uses that?!), vibrating cylindrical objects, edible undies, and other sexy bedroom attire.

    The vid selection is beat and I think they should just get rid of them since you can find everything on the internet now.

    If you need fun/funny ish for your next sex toy / bachelorette party or if your lovelife has lost its thrill, hit this spot up.
