“Favorite spot in ES! Fantastic, high-quality selection and friendly, knowledgeable staff (we love you, Heather!). The original artwork is incredible in addition to their one of a kind crystals. Absolutely recommend this place!”

“WOW, great customer service! Fast, friendly, knowledgeable, and very helpful. In this world of negativity and distractions, it is such a nice break from the norm to get actual "customer service". My expectations were exceeded in both circumstances. Fast reply to an email, and above average help during a follow-up phone call. Kristin was a great help and shared her caring expertise while answering my questions and concerns. I will recommend Electric Dreams to anyone, and everyone interested in slot cars. I hope that Kristin and Electric Dreams understand that if I could give more "Stars" I certainly would.”

“Nice little studio! Came for the group pottery class and we had a good time. 90 mins class for $65 per person! There is a small lot and a few meter parking spots on the street. Would recommend wearing something you wouldn't mind getting messy. And for the ladies, you might need a hair tie!”

“Went here today for the first time and was really impressed. Clean, well stocked and well maintained location. Loved the frriendly and knowledgable staff and would highly recommend this place if you are in the area. Excellent selection of great cards, packs and supplies. One note for first timers is that the parking lot is in the back and you can enter on 14th street. If the lot is full, I might try street parking or the Von's lot across the street. Attaching pictures of the lot and entrance”

And if they don’t have it they will help you find it on there website so you can have it shipped to you.This store used to be a blockbuster video, and blick was the best way of repurposing this space I could ever imagine.”

“I've been coming here with my dad for 10+ years since I was a little kid. We would always get brand new games before the release date & we'd also get them at a discounted price without any hassle or bargaining. Plus an even bigger discount if you get a bunch of stuff at once. Getting ALL the Halo's, Gears of War's, Call of Duty's...you name it..before release date was one of the highlights of my teen years as a gamer. You truly can't get that anywhere else. Just be aware that the price will increase if you pay with card. Unfortunately we have moved a further distance away & I am no longer the avid gamer I used to be so I don't come here as often, but when I do..I know I can still count on Game Hut to offer me the best deals. The only downside is the neighborhood and the swap meet that it's in always feels a little sketchy, but Ive never had anything happen to me nor have I seen anything crazy. By the looks of the swap meet from my last visit, there are now a lot of empty spots. I wouldn't want Game Hut to be next so Please support this business!”

“This store is much larger than the store I usually frequent.Great resource for all things crafty and if you have time to peruse the store.If you need assistance, good luck finding someone. Plenty of self checkout, however, it would be nice to have someone near the registers if you need assistance.”

“Me: "Do you have anymore gift boxes?"Store employee: "If we have any, then they'd be over there. But I don't think so."Me: *goes over there and nothing there**proceeds to other aisles around store and finds gift boxes*Mind you, this was Christmas eve morning so understandable that not everyone was all that enthused to be working. The check out clerks were friendly and helpful.”

“Small Michaels in a fairly tight strip mall. Smaller but it does cover the arts & crafts basics found at all Michaels locations. They carry a lot of different DIY products which could easily make the store feel cramped and cluttered but they do a good job of keeping it neat and organized. Look for those sales. If parking is full on the surface, there's parking underground.”

“Very neat location. It's not much compared to the huge japan locations but its nice to have. Most of the merch is mainstream anime stuff. If you're into more niche things, it might be hard to find here but there are few. For Vtuber fans, this is heaven for you bc half the store is that, which is a bit of a shame to me.”

“My Experience with SoCal Hobbies (Hobbyshop247) was great. Took advantage of a 4th of july coupon code for 20% discount. Owner was very helpful, gave me RCP Layout tips and more info regarding the Lap counter. What I mostly liked was the responsiveness to all my questions. Ordered arrived within 5 business days (Florida). I would highly recommend the shop for all your RCP needs.”
