Hamleys, the world famous toy retailer, was first opened in London in 1760. Today Hamleys remains the world's most wonderful toy shop, synonymous with theatre, magic and entertainment. Step over the threshold of Hamleys Toys Store and you enter a world of joy and wonder. The toys may have changed since Hamleys began in 1760, but if William Hamley were here today, he would recognise the same delighted faces as he guided you round the shop he dreamt of as a boy.
