Among the charming shops that line Washington Street in downtown Ocean Springs, you’ll find Miner’s Doll and Toy Store.

Practically a Gulf Coast landmark, the toy store opened in 1986!

And since day one, the shop has had the same objective, which is to “promote learning, inspire creativity, and have a fun time.”

That’s not the only thing that hasn’t changed throughout the decades, though. Another hallmark of the shop is that it’s brimming with toys!

The “cottage full of playful gifts” features several rooms – each of which is overflowing with incredible merchandise.

As the store’s name implies, dolls (and doll accessories) are a big part of the inventory.

In fact, Miner’s Doll and Toy Store is one of the largest Madame Alexander dealers in the country!

But it’s not just Madame Alexander dolls you’ll find at the store. The shelves are stocked with dolls in all shapes and sizes – from huggable cloth ones to collectible beauties.

Of course, dolls make up only a portion of the merchandise. Miner’s Doll and Toy Store carries just about every type of toy imaginable – and then some.

Peruse the selection, and you’ll find thousands of items to appeal to an array of ages and interests. There are miniature tea sets, wood toys, electronic building sets, puzzles, games, arts and crafts, and much, much more.
