They claim to have the biggest board game collection around, and I believe them. I have bought major purchases like Gloomhaven but also lesser know titles like War Chest. My friends and I were also able to to use their space to play a mini Magic draft after buying packs from them (pre-Covid). Its just a cool spot. BTW, you can use an elevator on the ground level to get in the store if you call them for assistance. If you are into board and card games, this is the store for you.

This was a really cool store! It was clean, the displays were great and there was a HUGE variety of different games, materials for painting game pieces and nice areas for playing games.

We didn't end up purchasing anything on this visit. But is was a great store. Not to mention that I like seeing people in community. Play a game- put down your phone and make some friends.

Amazing game store that caters to a variety of hobbies. Just a few notes from someone who has been…read moregoing to all of the locations (since they opened or if they have been more recent) for about 10 years: - They never open and reseal product. I have never seen this one time in my entire time in the stores. Whoever said that in another review is lying. - Prices are compared against the market and 99% of the time, the store will give the customer the best price they can. - They have the most generous trade-in sale percentages of any store around. Having spent time with the owner and founder, most of the employees, and a good amount of the customers, I can say that this store is hands down the best games/hobby venue around. Truly care about providing people and families with a place to compete and have fun.

Awesome comic book store. Exactly what I was looking for during my unexpected free afternoon during…read moremy Boston visit. Walked in and one of the employees asked if I was new there. I said Yes and he then gave me their quick spiel. From other reviews it looks like 20% off isn't new and has been a thing for a very long time. I didn't find, in general, their prices to be too bad. A few books maybe but they're smack in the middle of the city in a high tent area and their selection of pretty much everything is great, do slightly higher prices are understandable. Highly suggest a visit for current books, back issues, slabs, and I think lots of gaming stuff as well (I didn't pay attention to their non-comic stuff). It was actually fun for me.

Friar Tuck himself greeted us at the door today and gave us a quick tour…read more My husband was excited to check out this comic book store, not only because they had back issues that he was looking for in his collection but also the entire store was at least 20% off today! (The prices were a little high to begin with so the sale made them more regular). The display comic books had cool identifiers like the first appearance of Hawkeye, for example. They were valued higher because of these specifics. Even those were 20% off today. My husband's only critique was that some of the long boxes were packed too tight such that he would've had to pull out multiple comic books just to be able to search through the box. He says he would've bought more if there were about 15 fewer issues per long box. Come check it out!

The building has a large sign which has been attached to the front for years that says "America's…read moreLargest Train Store" and their web site makes the same claim. However, when you walk inside you will quickly realize that the retail store only occupies roughly a quarter of the building. This certainly was not the largest train store in the United States when Caboose Hobbies in Colorado still had its own retail location. Even after Caboose Hobbies closed, the title of "largest train store" still seems somewhat dubious. Despite the claim, it is still a fairly large store with a wide selection of trains and gauges. It's one of the most organized stores I've seen with their merchandise neatly displayed on shelves. This is a big difference from other model train shops where the stock is often randomly put on shelves. As you enter, you'll find one of the largest G Scale selections I've ever seen. There's also plenty of O Scale with HO and N stock towards the back. Prices are on the high side and if you're new to the hobby then you're bound to experience some sticker shock. Some other stores have a fairly decent selection of used items which can be great for kids, but there wasn't much used stock on my visit, so as much as the kids might like the train layout they've got, it's not a great place to bring little kids shopping because they're likely to be disappointed they can't afford anything with their allowance money. There is a train display upstairs, but for "America's Largest Train Store", the display seemed rather small. It's in the center of a small room upstairs and there's a narrow hallway around the display so you can see it from all sides. However, it's entirely behind glass which means it's impossible to take any photos or videos without a reflection. Most other stores with a display will have plexiglass around the bottom but you can still stick a camera over the top for photos. I'm assuming they've got this entirely enclosed because it's off in its own area with no staff to watch out for sticky fingers. As of this review, their hours are just Monday-Friday from 9am to 5pm which makes it VERY difficult to visit the retail store for anyone that works regular working hours. It would be nice if they were open a weekend day or had at least one day when they were open later. As a result, I've only been able to visit in person once when I happened to have a day off. I'd prefer to visit in person than order online to save on shipping costs and time and to ensure I get the item I actually want. If I'm going to bother ordering online, I can order from literally anyone just as easily. It's a shame their hours aren't convenient for regular folks with 9 to 5 jobs.

They have all different types of arts and craft products, sewing items, yarn, paints, craft kits, candle items, colored pens/pencils and anything that you might need for your crafting needs. There was even a good selection of seasonal decorative items, right now being Fall themed. We grabbed some of the Fall decorations to put outside in our front yard plus I saw a word puzzle book that looked pretty good so I got that as well. The prices and selection here were not bad at all. There were plenty of clerks scattered about the store looking to help customers find what they were looking for.
