Essex Adult Emporium

In the last six months, this place is really changed. The first time I came here they had almost no lingerie, and the prices were extremely steep with little to know options. I didn’t know what to get. This time around the worst plenty and it seems that they have an entire lingerie shop next-door. It closes earlier than the sex Emporium so I wasn’t able to get in but I’m hoping to go back soon.

Went in today to grab some goodies. Pretty much knew what I needed. Was helped by a Very Pleasant Cashier. In that short time he was Super fun and made me feel comfortable. I'm going back again for sure!

Very large selection and the two guys working this afternoon where HOTT! Wouldn't mind taking them home too!

Absolutely one of the best sex shops I've been in helpful staff and decent prices

Great variety of adult toys. Great customer service.

Great place! #lube4life

Quiet place and staff is friendly

Please do not go here

Normally I would never give a bad review but I think it is necessary. I went to this adult shop to try out new things and when I asked a simple question " what is the difference between anal lube and normal lube" I was given a weird look and the guy laughed and said is it your first time ? and I was very embarrassed and shook my head yes he then said I should brake up with my boyfriend because he shouldn't force me to do anal sex which by the way I never said he just assumed.

He kept telling me how he had very rough sex with his girl friend but would never do anal, and he said he didn't understand how "guys " do it which made me assume he was homophobic.

I cant go back here because how embarrassed I felt and uncomfortable it was for a guy to basically tell me how he " reams his girl friend but never will do anal" and go on to tell me i should brake up with my boyfriend which by the way was there. Just a very bad experience over all and made me not want to spend my money.

TERRIBLE STAFF, STEER CLEAR. Went in hoping to talk to an employee that was informed and sex-positive, and instead was greeted by a guy that was judgmental, homophobic, and sleazy. And on top of that, he knew next to nothing about pretty basic kinks.

Honestly, was willing to spend a lot of money and instead walked out with nothing because of how terrible the experience was. I will never go to this place again, and I strongly suggest others avoid it as well - there are far better stores in the area.
