Smith's Variety
the heart of Mountain Brook since 1950
Smith's Variety has stood on Church Street in Mountain Brook Village since 1950, and calls itself the heart of Mountain Brook — a claim seventy-five years of trading has more or less earned. It is a toy and gift shop, the kind you walk into for one birthday present and leave having solved three.
Doors open Monday through Saturday, closed Sundays. Bham Now lists it among the Birmingham-area toy shops it sends people to.
“the heart of Mountain Brook since 1950”
Mountain Brook holds three of the twelve, split between Crestline Village and Mountain Brook Village — this one, Snoozy's Kids and Once Upon a Time Children's. Homewood, with four more, is over the hill from here.
