From getting your RC serviced/upgrades, advice/opinions this is the place to go or be at. Every person that assisted from employees to the owner Damon were super welcoming being new to the hobby.

The parking lot is pretty small, but we found a spot easily. When you walk in there's a lot to look at. Near the door there is a wall of board games as well as some plush items. We had so much fun looking at the dice at the counter, they have a great selection including some metal dice and I loved a pair the was pearlescent. The prices range widely but they're all really cool. They also carry items from local makers like jewelry, make up, potion bottles, fidgets, and other little cute items. I saw a bunch of 3D printed items too. The second glass case has cards on display for collectors. I didn't look at them too closely but I saw a lot of holographic which is always cool. On the other side of the store is an area with a bunch of tables where people were having fun playing games together. That area takes up a little under half of the store. It seemed like a fun spot to come with friends. The staff members were really friendly and helpful as well. It was fun learning about the store and their offerings and I'm sure we'll be back soon.

Everything is displayed quite well and spread out, making it easy to browse through each of the aisles to see what they have. Prices are fair and in line with the online retail market. They also offer disc resurfacing and console repairs as well! The store also specializes in trading card games like Pokemon and Magic. When I stopped by to explore the store, I met some really nice staff and customers. It felt like a great spot to shop or just hang out with friends who share the same hobbies. They got a little bit of everything and also host weekly card tournaments too! I got to witness a live Magic the Gathering event on my random visit, which was a fun experience and gave me a good feeling of nostalgia. I definitely will be coming back whenever I am in the area visiting from the city.

I've driven to every comic and hobby shop within a 100 mile radius from Lodi and this small shop has everything I need and more for my hobby(28mm historical miniature games).

Also there is a big selection of more traditional games, meaning things like Catan and Carcasonne not monopoly or mouse trap

Upon getting home and opening the set, we found that parts were missing, as well as the fact that it didn't seem to function properly. I called the store the next day and the owner was very rude on the phone. He kept mentioning how busy he was because it was the holiday season. He absolutely refused to help in any way, shape, or form. He did say he "might be able to find the number for Lionel" so that I could call the manufacturer myself. I was literally speechless. I have heard that the owner has bad customer service. Now I know for sure. I will never step foot in this store again. The store itself is nice and charming. But be aware, if you have any issues with a product, even if you just spent hundreds of dollars, you will not only get zero help, the owner will talk down to you as if you are an idiot. What a disappointment.
