Our stores in San Marino and Encino have sadly closed. We hope to reopen again someday. In the meantime, we still serve the San Gabriel community. You can still shop online here at sanmarinotoys.com, but we also would love your visit at our real life store! 

Clever Bear

526 South Myrtle Ave, Monrovia CA 91016

Open 10-6, Monday-Saturday

In a beautiful old town setting, nestled by the San Gabriel mountains, Clever Bear opened in March 2023. With books, toys and gifts for all ages, this is a wonderful place to browse on a Friday night at the weekly Street Fair, or on a lazy Sunday morning after brunch. 

Our book collection includes best sellers, new releases, local authors and illustrators, graphic novels and board books. The space is a blend of classic toys and games as well as on trend novelties and plush. We like to offer a range of prices and styles- here you'll find unique items, made in the USA, handmade, limited edition as well as some of the most popular best selling toy brands. For the most part however, we are a true specialty toy store, featuring lines you won't see in big box stores or online.

When shopping online, please always call with special checks and urgent requests. Store pickup is located in Monrovia.
