Shopped at this place a few times while working in the area. Owner is very strange. Saw him giving IPMS discounts to some members and refusing discounts to others. Wiseass doesn't hesitate to let you know if he doesn't like you, even as you hand him money. I wouldn't ever go back. read more

Field's Hobby Center

I'm new to the hobby and was genuinely excited to visit the store for the first time. I needed a…read morefew parts for my brush‑to‑brushless conversion, and I was also open to purchasing an R/C model I knew they had in stock. Unfortunately, the experience went downhill the moment I walked in. One employee immediately gave me a harsh look and stared at me from across the room. I didn't even realize he worked there at first, so I tried to move out of his line of sight. Another employee eventually approached me, and I explained that it was my first visit and I wanted to look around before asking questions. He was friendly and helpful -- I honestly wish he had been the one assisting me the whole time. Instead, the first employee eventually came over and asked if I needed anything, but his tone and body language made me feel unwelcome, as if he wanted me to leave rather than browse. It took the excitement out of what should have been a fun first visit. Bottom line: the store itself was great, but the attitude from that particular employee made the experience uncomfortable and disappointing.

Very friendly and knowledgeable of everything they sell and service. Will be back to spend more…read moremoney!

Do you need decals for whatever reason? They have a big free bin near the front. Do you need cement? What types? There are so many! And, if you don't know, the guys who work there do, and they will make sure you walk away with what you need. If you've been thinking about giving models a go, or are just looking for a place that has shelves lined with them, this is where you want to go. It's hard to believe that a brick and mortar like this place still exists, but it's wonderful that it does!

I found things that my local hobby shops in Kansas City do not carry and bought them. The guys running the store are knowledgeable and very helpful. If you build plastic model kits, this place is a must to visit.

Hobby Lobby

Since JoAnn closed I have been looking for a place for fabrics. Hobby Lobby's collection was less but I was able to find the items I needed. The price for the items were very reasonable . The clerk was very friendly and helpful. Parking lot is front of the store. I am surprised how full it was!

My very first visit to a Hobby Lobby ever happened last month when my mom and I decided to drive…read moreout simply because I wanted to check it out. My mom seems to shop here somewhat often but now that I know, I'll be honest: I don't love the overt Christian branding and that alone will never make this store my first choice. That said, I can't deny the variety they offer. No matter what craft you're into whether it be sewing, quilting, painting, home decor, seasonal projects, etc. Hobby Lobby seems to have just about everything imaginable under one roof even if it may be extremely challenging to find/the layout of the store wasn't great... While I'd prefer to shop elsewhere when possible, I can see myself returning if I'm in a pinch or need something specific. I can admit it's a convenient option. Three stars for selection and convenience with some hesitation on the overall vibes and prices.

It's always pretty crowded when I'm there and they run like a well oiled machine, so don't let the long lines scare you off, they move so fast. I also love the variety of veg they carry, I always end up with something new try every ear!

Large selection of plants, even at the end of summer! I visited in search of fall flower bulbs…read more(crocuses, tulips, etc) and found a whole wall of different colors and varieties. (MUCH better selection than Home Depot! Come here instead!) In addition to the plants, they have pots, garden art, a whole wall of different kinds of potting soils, and right now (September) they have Halloween decorations to make your garden spooky. They even have hay bales! Staff was friendly. Prices felt on the higher side but it was worth it to me for the hard-to-find flower colors.

Bill Weber's Greenhouse & Farm Market

I love Bill Weber's! It's much larger than it looks and I can say (after frequenting about a dozen…read morenurseries in May) this greenhouse is fairly priced. They have everything you need from flowers, to trees, bushes, fillers, moss, compost, garden decor, indoor and outdoor pots of all sizes. This is one of those places you can rely on as a one stop shop for any of your gardening needs.

I came here years ago. Then stopped and started buying plants online…read more What a foolish mistake. The plants/products available here are all - for lack of a better term - home grown and lovingly tended to. There are no better plants available in Western NY. There are a number of heirloom tomato plants, my downfall. The floral plants far surpass any that I've found elsewhere. If you are searching for something, you can most likely find it here. They have/had "King Tuts"!. Super hard to find papyrus water plants. If I write anymore, I will think of more plants that I think I need. I shall stop here. Family/locally owned and operated.
