Really great hobby shop for all things trains. My father recently got my girls a Lionel train set…read morefor Christmas so we stopped in here to see what other options were available to add to our new set. They have an amazing selection of trains, including all different gauges, also miniature buildings, animals, people and everything else for your trains set. We didn't have an opportunity to stay too long so I'll be back to take a more in depth look in the near future. The staff are very helpful and super knowledgeable so come with questions and leave with answers. They also have a display with several trains set up with buttons for people to try to see what lights up or makes sound. The trains were not moving while we were there and they were kind of busy in the lead up to Christmas so we didn't ask to have them running, but I'm sure they would have turned them on if we had asked.

They recently cleaned up a little so it's less overwhelming and looks more like a store than a hoarder's wet dream. The employees are lovely on the first floor.

From the moment I walked in, I felt like a kid in a candy store. I wish the arcade machines worked but they're only for display. The shelves are packed w/ everything from the latest ,manga,Marvel & DC (you name it they have it)issues to rare back issues that you don't see anywhere else. I spent ages flipping through back issues, discovering old favorites, & even some titles I'd never heard of before. The manga section is amazing too! Honestly, it's one of the best I've ever seen!And the collectibles! Action figures, vintage posters, Funko Pops, & even some high-end statues sprinkled throughout the store made it feel like a mini museum of nerdy goodness. The staff are super friendly & clearly love what they do. They were happy to chat about my finds, give recommendations, or just geek out w/ me over classic storylines. I even found a few hidden gems in the dollar bins that felt like little victories. Atomic Comics isn't just a store it's an experience. It's cozy & full of charm. If you love comics, collectibles, or just want to spend a few hours exploring a place where fandom really comes alive, this is the spot! I'll def be coming back!

I had played at their Friday night magic booster drafts on numerous times in the past year and this is where I have several complaints about their player base that ruins the positive experience for others. While I was playing there, I had been yelled at by a guy named Peter Mitchell who is very rude and obnoxious on numerous occasions. One time I put a bottled water on the table with the cap sealed and he acts like its going to spill and rudely told me the rules are to not leave drinks on the table. Another instance where he was being ignorant is when I brought snacks in the store to share with everybody and he acts as if I'm taking business away from the store owner. What I am noticing at this store is the poor etiquette of some of the players who behave rudely and has no common sense in socially acceptable behavior in public. I'm taking about a guy named Andre Desir who was caught cheating in a game of Magic the Gathering by drawing extra cards and he tries to defend his actions by shouting at others insisting it's not a big deal. Any form of cheating is wrong and can carry a temporary ban of 1 year at DCI sanctioned events at the judge's discretion but the penalties of cheating is not enforced at this particular store. Those are the main reasons why I view this LGS unfavorably and I would not continue supporting this store. I would highly recommend Gamer's Heaven in Phoenixville instead to play cards. The staff and player base at GH are more ethical in their actions and behaviors and it has always been a good experience there.

Good selection of longboxes, some new pull books, along with a fair selection of dollar books on shelves. Pop selection was small but they had a nice amount of exclusives. Various toys and collectables including figures were spread around the shop. The owner was very helpful in searching for items and pleasant to chat with. Overall, this is one of the better small comic shops I've visited, and fully recommend it.

The variety of clothes, shoes & baby and toddler accessories is amazing! The layout of the store is easy to navigate as well. I headed straight to boys section and was welcomed by the owner. She asked me what I was looking for and navigated me right to where I needed to be. I was amazed at all the high quality brand name clothes. So many brand new with tags - but priced to sell! I couldn't believe it! I was in retail heaven! Imagine shopping at Nordstrom's or Saks Fifth Ave but getting much better prices. We ventured downstairs to just browse around and I was amazed at the quality of the strollers, play and packs and high chairs. You can tell the owner takes pride in this shop. I understand why they are winning awards. They have quality product and exceptional service. If we are ever back in the area, we are definitely coming by again. Shopping local is so much fun!
