Jen, I’m happy I was able to donate $8 to a business that seems to be in need (after being forced to pay for 2oz hand sanitizer that was not intended to be purchased). I’ve never experienced such belittlement by someone who’s profession is to serve customers. Accusing someone of tampering with merchandise and then kicking the customer out of the store to only find out that the merchandise was completely sealed, deserves an apology. Not only that... you completely yelled at the customer and made them feel like they were a delinquent! And not only was the product paid for, you were able to keep the sealed product and most likely resell it. Honey, you’re in the wrong business, and judging by the previous reviews you should really reconsider your line of work. A cubicle where you don’t have to deal with people sounds like a profession for you. Note: had to add the 1 star to add my review description but you should get zero stars. Peace and love. :)
This is a must if you are in the area. So many funny gifts and quirky items.
Awesome merchandise but the employees could’ve been a little bit nicer.
I cannot lie! I came in here because we were visiting our daughter in New Hampshire and watching our 6 year old granddaughter for two weeks. We were coming back from visiting the Seacoast Science Center and had some extra time after lunch. Well she wanted to visit her big sister at work and where does big sister work? At Macro Polo. We were lucky enough to get a parking spot in the lot directly across the street and surprise our oldest granddaughter with a visit from us and her little sister.Am I a bit biased because our granddaughter works here? Of course, but this place was amazing even if she didnt work here. They have all kinds of quirky gifts you just wont find anywhere else. Plus the staff working there when we went in (the owner and our granddaughter) were extremely nice and obviously enjoy working there. (OK - that was the biased part.)If you are a tourist and want something that will truly remind you of your visit to Portsmouth, or if you are just looking for that oddball gift for a friend, this is a great place to shop.
Staff wasnt overly friendly but a great little shop!
I love this store, the items they carry, and the staff. They have a unique assortment of gifts at reasonable prices. Ive purchased little felt purses that receive TONS of compliments. Ill be going back soon to pick up a beaded necklace I eyed last week (but had already purchased so many other things I didnt want to overdo!). Cant say enough good things about it!
Very fun little store of gag gifts and unique items. I played with everything and had a fun time.
Fun little novelty store with gag gifts, great old fashioned candy selection. Really funny books, socks, hot sauce selection. Great way to kill half an hour in Portsmouth. Cashiers were young, very entertaining, singing along to the 80s music (excellent voice!)
I had the pleasure of visiting this store when I was in town just 3 days ago--one of the best, funniest stores, Ive ever been in! Definitely worth a visit if youre in the Portsmouth, NH area. Ill definitely pay this store a visit next time I am in town ( which hopefully will be soon!! )
This shop has lots of funny, unique items. We always find something great here.
Nice stuff but the employees need to be NICER:( and they hate KIDS :(
I love this store. All of the items are hilarious, and I always have a wonderful time looking through everything to try and find something for a gift. While some of the merchandise could be taken as offensive or gross to some people, thats the whole point of the store. It is a joke store, and of some of the jokes are too offensive for you, then too bad. If you try not to be too fragile about how you perceive humor, than you will have no problem
Front window display is deceiving. Inside store is cheap quality over priced toys and junk.
The shop has a lot of gag gifts. But overall worth walking through if looking for souvenirs.
Fav store to visit in Portsmouth! Always make sure to plans a stop for hilarious toys and a great laugh. Fun environment as well!
Awesome store! Funny gifts and great atmosphere. Staff are friendly and helpful.

Great store for hilarious items and gag gifts!
Cool little store with a variety of novelties and joke/prank items. Fun place to stop!
The staff is SO helpful and SO nice!!! I could not imagine Portsmouth without the unique Marco Polo.
Fun store! So many different items, had a few laughs, and found many things from my childhood as well as my mothers!
Super inappropriate. It does not belong in classy Portsmouth. Also their are kids who wonder into the store and see many inappropriate things which I think is very wrong.
Small fun little store
Cool little shop for fun gifts! I always shop here for Yankee Swap gifts.
Fun shop great products
Unique little trinkets and toys for kids. Some of the items were gross and/or offensive.
Didn’t end up buying anything cause the girls working were so rude and nasty to us
Not the cheapest products being in Portsmouth but the staff is friendly and have great selection of fun toys and gag gifts!
Great gift shop!!
Silly throwbacks and lots of fun
Great kitschy toy store in the heart of Portsmouth.
Fab little gift shop. Really random things thatll make fun Christmas stocking stuffers.
Abrasively rude employees and terrible new ownership. Unsafe environment which led to major employee injuries. Poor treatment of employees. Infested with biting flies and spiders.
Hilarious gifts
If I could put no stars that would have been my choice.Worst return policy Ive ever encountered. Rude sales associate as well as the management.I will never step foot into that store again.
Funny magnets and gag gifts!
Always a hoot
Cool stuff!
