I love Hobby Lobby overall. There's decent prices on many of their items for creating various…read morethings for various hobbies. Recently, though, there has been a huge influx of very weird AI generated images that are being sold as artwork. As a painter, this is really disappointing that a place that encourages creativity has stopped working with artist to sell their artwork in mass production. I really don't know who wants an AI portrait of a cow laying on a couch like she's being painted like one of Jack's French girls. I am thankful that Hobby Lobby hasn't gone the cold route of self-checkout. Thank you for employing people there! Please employ artists again!

We stopped into The 8th Side in Lincoln Park for a Pokémon tournament with the kids--and left…read morefeeling like we'd discovered one of the coolest local hangouts in town! The atmosphere was buzzing with energy, but still felt warm and welcoming. One of the owners even took time to chat with us and share the story of how The 8th Side came to be. That kind of personal touch always sticks with me--it's a real neighborhood gem with heart. Although the kitchen was closing by the time we arrived (I had my eye on their noodles!), we did grab some drinks and checked out their corner filled with Pokémon cards, collectibles, and merch. If you're into games, anime, or just enjoy friendly, community-driven spaces, this spot definitely has something for you. Great service, fun vibe, and a strong local spirit--I'll be back (hopefully earlier next time!).

They treat you like family. $35 a month for membership is great as well. Most people spend hundreds of dollars on a gym membership and playing with their phones. You get an awesome gaming experience, plus a chance to meet and make friends with some of the best people around.

This place was fantastic for a total casual skating newbie. Tattoos took such good care of us. We…read moretold her we were brand new to skating and she pulled out all the options and had us try on each, telling us what to look for in the fit and filling up the rest with great stories, charming and relatable, which put us at ease. We were there maybe an hour and a half all told, but it didn't feel like it. We never felt rushed - she took her time and let us take ours. Brilliant experience. She was a wealth of information and helpful tips, gave us a YouTube account to look at for techniques and a local place to take classes. We very much enjoyed our time in this shop and with this wonderful woman. Wish we lived closer! Suffice it to say that, if you're in the market for skates or skating gear (or anime gear, toys, wearables etc), this is the SPOT. The kind of place you love supporting because it feels like home and you can geek out together about things you love. What a treasure. We both walked out with some insanely comfortable Retros and a set of pads. A week later we are just beginning to get out skate legs, no longer feeling like such awkward baby gazelles, and very grateful for the care and attention she gave us in helping us select skates, know what to look for, and where to start learning. This shop is a valuable community resource, so be thankful, Detroit - this is the real deal

They took the time to listen to us, they gave us their expert recommendations, they had my kid try on a bunch of different options, and, once we made our selection, they helped us customize the wheels, toestops, etc. They were SO much more knowledgeable and customer oriented than other skate shops we've visited (very noob friendly) and way cheaper too. We will be back!

This store is not a traditional comic book store. It's got a lot more than that…read more There is an entire store that is mostly just Funko Pop figures and other collectible statues.

Some people out there might recognize us from our booth at the Taylor Trade Center. Our store has all the same amazing Funko POP! Vinyls, NECA products, and geeky artwork you love. When you step into our shop, your head will spin with all the cool stuff on our shelves. You'll also be able to meet others with interests just like yours -- comic book characters, sci-fi, and even gory horror. So, the next time you're in Dearborn Heights, take a look inside the shop with superheroes on the wall. We won't bite ... that hard.

She said straight to the back wall I'll send someone to help. When I got there I started match my flared nut to fittings a young lady walked up and asked if she could help.

Nice store with a lot of magic related items from books to kits to the tricks like hand buzzers.

The staff is great, both guys were very helpful and talented demonstrators of various tricks. I mentioned how familiar all the props seemed from when I used to visit a little magic shop in Ferndale in the 1970s owned by Romeg the Magician and then Poof! As if by magic they pointed to a photo behind the counter and told me that this store was in fact the second reincarnation of that very magical place from my childhood, transported to Clawson 40 years later. What an amazing coincidence that I should take my nephews to buy tricks at the same place that made me fall in love with prestidigitation all those years ago. I bet that some of the items lining the walls were actually the same props from all those years ago. If you love magic this is the place to go.

All merchandise was organized really well and by yarn brand. I also noticed some cross stitch and embroidery kits. There was also a display of new DMC thread colors, as well as knitting needles, crochet hooks, and notions. There was a small group of people knitting while I was there shopping. I learned that there is a group that meets weekly to work on their projects. Very friendly environment! I'll stop in again and shop when in the area. Prices were good for the excellent quality of the yarns!
