“Best card shop out there with fair pricing. Only store I buy Pokémon and TCG product. Have been coming here for about 7 years now. Great staff! Loved their Sunday League for Pokemon, cant wait to get back to it!”
“I recently visited Smith Brothers Hobby Center and had a fantastic experience.
David was incredibly helpful in guiding me through the selection of a remote control and accessories for my Tamiya RC car.
His knowledge and expertise were greatly appreciated, and I'm thankful for his assistance.
The store itself offers a wide range of hobby-related products, and the staff are friendly and approachable.
Overall, Smith Brothers Hobby Center provides excellent customer service and is a great destination for hobby enthusiasts.”
“Honestly i have nothing but positive things to say about this store, Dae and Chris are two of the best store owners and their staff is always super active in the community and even join in sometimes to fill in spots for matches, their great. i hope they are extremely successful in the coming years. They have Star Wars(starting march 1st), MTG, Pokemon, Flesh and Blood, and One Piece matches every week, and they keep their prices decent especially during the holidays (specifically their amazing black friday deals!)”
“Love this store and their selection. Also we haven't been there for any on sight games but it looks like a great crowd of friendly players. There were even some games you can't find online anymore. Also they had basic paints for minis and lots of dice.”
“SCV Card is a nostalgic haven, capturing the essence of an old-school card shop. Stepping in, I was instantly transported to the joyous memories of browsing baseball cards as a kid. The atmosphere here resonates with that classic charm, making it the perfect place to relive those cherished moments.I recently visited with my son to explore their Pokemon card selection, and the experience was nothing short of delightful. The staff at SCV Card are not just courteous but also exude a genuine friendliness. They went above and beyond to guide us through the array of options, creating an environment reminiscent of the personalized service often found in cherished childhood locales.For anyone yearning to recreate the magic of a bygone era, SCV Card is the ideal spot. The seamless blend of nostalgia, courteous staff, and a diverse card collection makes it more than just a store—it's a place where memories are revisited and new ones are created. A heartfelt thanks to SCV Card for turning a simple card-shopping trip into a meaningful journey down memory lane.”
“Beautiful, well-stocked bookstore.
Lots of nice gift ideas.
There are also many places to relax and read, as well as a Starbucks in the middle of the bookstore.”
“We have been working with Standing Bear's Trading Post for at least the past 15-20 years. The quality of leather they provide is amazing and Sandi Howling Wolf Lightfoot is always easy to work with. I will 100% support this small business over any other large corporation trying to sell leather and leather supplies.”
“This has been my go to place for all my bird concerns! I absolutely love this neighborhood store. They have everything you need and great prices, especially with the membership they offer. Customer service is outstanding. I especially want to thank Joe for always helping make decisions about bird feeders and food, and for being so kind in helping me carry stuff to my car. He really went the extra mile. I love coming here! Really recommend this store to everyone!”

8039 Deering Ave, Canoga Park“Traditions Christmas Shoppe is the absolute best place for Decorations. Especially Halloween. Even though it's called a Christmas Shoppe, it has all Holiday Decorations. Many Vintage, which I love. I placed an order over the phone. Their merchandise is superior. Well made, very detailed and arrives at your door quickly. The Associates that take your order are always nice & go out of their way to help you. I will shopping at Traditions often. It's also a Family Business. It's all good. Great place for Decorations.”
“I've been coming to the bead lounge for a few years now, and I just have to say, these women have made me feel like family. I have taken several classes, from learning how to make a basic bracelet, to now wire wrapping, and I'm the kind of person who needs to watch, and ask questions, and needs the person teaching me to go slow, and explain things. Each one of these women has made me feel so comfortable. Now aside from that, sometimes I come in just to get inspiration. Sometimes I get stuck on what to make next, and I'll walk in and no joke, I am approached with a hug either from the owner Bari, Taylor, Naya or Sky, and asked how I'm doing and what they can help with. They have an incredible selection of beads, charms, chains, clasps. I've looked at several other bead stores in the area when I was first getting my feet wet in making jewelry, and it's obvious that Bari cares about what she wants in her store. The quality of her selection is truly unmatched. You can just see and feel the difference. I'm a forever fan of the bead lounge, and I know when I go in, I will always be welcomed and helped in any way they can provide.”
“I love this store! There are so few like it left in this Amazon world we live in, and their prices are so reasonable! They've been around forever, and I was so grateful they survived COVID. They have a little bit of everything and provide services like knife and scissor sharpening and they making keys as well - you can't even get keys made at Home Depot anymore - in this age of service-less stores, they now have a machine and you have to do it yourself - which may or may not work. The people at Knife Trader are so fair and honest that when I brought my cuticle scissors in for sharpening, they told me they didn't even need it! They could easily have just done it and charged me and I never would have known the difference. It's a blessing when you get to deal with good, kind, honest people. I highly recommend this neighborhood gem!”
“Michaels has everything you will ever need in way of arts and crafts. They have classes to teach you things from painting to making a wreath. They are full of ideas. You can always find all sorts of ideas and craft packages for kids to make. I was in a rut because I ordered a bunch of crafts from a company for my Sunday School students to make. No one seems to sell religious arts and crafts in stores but I found them at Michael's. It wasn't big selection but I was grateful to find what I did. I actually met the late David McCallum there picking up some crafts. They have sketching, painting, floral, candles & candle making kits. They have gemstones and findings for making jewelry, wood crafts for painting as well as Canvasses. It's really wonderful just how much they have. All the personnel know about everything you need to find and make something and how to do it. Michael's makes the world a better place.”
“Because of my creative nature, MICHAELS is the place. Got a black widow spider in my car. Very friendly worker introduced me to aromatherapy fragrances that drive spiders crazy and make them leave your vehicle. Spider is still spinning the webs in my car.
But I made a new friend.”
“I purchased a few Pokemon box sets here. They had quite an impressive variety to choose from. The gentlemen who helped me were very kind and had a great sense of humor. Very satisfied.”
