Best hobby store in Baton Rouge. This place is amazing, simply put. You can find something for everyone here. The owners are the sweetest people and remember us every time we come in. My husband and I love to build gundam models and they have really expanded their selection of these recently. Everytime we come in, the man working gets excited to show us all of the new stuff they got in and reminds us that he takes out recommendations of what to buy seriously and cares about customer feedback. We have never had issues with anything weve bought here. The prices are great and the selection is so huge it is unreal! They sell puzzles as well which I didnt realize for a long time so it's always fun to grab a puzzle when I come in. I will never stop supporting this local business! read more

Great hobby shop, and the nicest people you could find. Gotta keep frequenting these kinds of places do they don't disappear!

We went in to price the TRAXXSS T- MAXX 3.3 for my husband. Hands best fantastic customer service! The man behind the counter, I think the owner (has a slight stutter), was genuinely kind and pleasant to talk to. He really knew his product and was honest about issues that may arise. To be honest I was going to buy this car on Amazon but found that the salesman was just too wonderful, I wanted to keep my money local. I would go here again and again! If you are hobbyist of any kind- this is the place for you! read more

Hobby Towne - Conductor hats- in the train section. - Hobby Shops Near Me - Baton Rouge, Louisiana

See all

Love it has so many rc's I got a airplane they also have 1/64 scale cars thay had 1st generation hot wheels

Fantastic service every visit. Do note that if you need to return anything, you MUST have the receipt. No exceptions. I mainly purchase Traxxas vehicles, if I need a part they don't have they'll order it for me. Prices usually match or beat online. read more

As a Hobby Towne customer for the past twelve (12) to fifteen (15) years, I can truthfully say that the service has been excellent, honest and helpful every time. Model Train supplies in multiple gauges, Model Aircraft, Model cars, Military models, Model Boats and Ships, hobby paints in authentic colors, precision tools, Radio Control, etc. Hobby Towne has it. If they don't, they will try and get it for you. Personal service--and locally owned by good folks. Their prices are as good as or better than what you can find on the internet, and no shipping charge rip-off. (I'm going there again tomorrow.) read more

So I've never been to the store and didn't even know about it until after Christmas this year. I purchased a remote control truck online for my son and when it started having problems I didn't know where to turn. So I took it to Hobby town and talked to the old man about it and before I could even finish telling him what I was asking of him he caught an attitude with me and told me there's nothing he can do and I should've bought it somewhere with someone that can help me instead of the Internet. I replied but Sir all I need for you to do is tell me what could possibly be causing this problem and I'll fix it myself and before I could finish my sentence he cut me off and said I can't help you you should've went somewhere to buy it where someone can help you. The man was very disrespectful he lost a future customer with his attitude. Really pissed me off actually cuz I was falling in love with the vibe and appearance of the store. read more

If you buy anything, pray you don't have a factory defect or something wrong with it. They refuse to return, exchange, or even help you. If they do buy it back, you won't get but about half your money back, even if you didn't use the product. It seems that they don't stand behind anything they sell. read more

This local mom and pop hobby shop has become my go to store for everything. Prices are comparable to the best you can find on the internet and here I can ask questions and receive good advice that amazon cannot deliver. read more

Wow, this store is awesome! There are so many things that you can build (rockets, boats, planes, trains). I didn't find it to be overpriced. The employees are friendly and very helpful. It's a local run Baton Rouge shop. I believe I heard the older lady say that they've been there for 37 years. If you don't want your children playing video games or watching tv like me, totally check them out and support a local business! read more

This is no lie the only and largest hobby store in the Baton Rouge area, however they have some of the worst service I have ever experienced. For example as I was explaining the things I needed and what they were used for to the guy in his mid 30s who was helping me just walked away for 5min, and then as I was waiting for him to help me check out he just went and sat down to play on his phone and online surf. Worst hobby/retail store I have ever been too. Will never come back. The only person willing to help and that was actually nice was the elderly lady who finally came to check me out. read more

I am going to start of this review by saying that I have never reviewed anything in my life. With this said I have left stores upset but never like this. Absolutely worst service that I have ever had at a store in my entire life. Not only did they not know how or what to do when I asked them questions, but they literally ignored me, even walked away from me mid-sentence. It was like he wanted me to go elsewhere. Horrible customer service. You are better off going to a store where the employees do not speak English. Rid the hassle of dealing with these imbeciles and go somewhere else read more

This is a great hobby shop with a huge selection. I know the current trend revolves around RC stuff, which Hobby Towne has an incredible selection of, but those of us who still like plastic kits, the selection these guys have of plastic kits (airplanes, cars, ships, you name it!) is nothing short of breathtaking. The prices are very reasonable and the staff helpful and friendly. This store is highly recommended and I can't express enough the giant selection of plastic model kits they have here! Bring your kids here and expose them to the world of hobbies. read more
