“Benny helped me with my purchase, reconvened a very good lens for my camera, and was a pleasure to deal with. Allan is a great guy, he is very sociable and extremely pleasant to deal with. These two gentlemen are an asset to Henry's. In terms of equipment, I a saddened that the store looks depleted, not enough products.”
“Second time in the store and both times had a great experience. Angelo was a great help going through my cards. Ended up trading some stuff in and picked up a M Blastoise EX!”
“The Coin Shoppe has become the first coin company I check for high quality/unique collectible coins at a fair price.
I bought this unique 2 ounce silver coin from TCS. 2025 Cameroon "Amulet of Sorcery". Beautiful! Mintage of only 199!! Very Rare.”
“401 Games is an absolute gem for card and board game enthusiasts! The store offers an incredible selection of games, from popular card games like Magic: The Gathering and Pokemon to a wide array of board games for all ages. The staff is knowledgeable and genuinely passionate, always eager to help with game recommendations or questions. Plus, their prices are very reasonable, and they often have hard-to-find items in stock. Whether you're a seasoned player or just getting into gaming, 401 Games has something for everyone.”
“Fair price food quality and a kind owner and he has a nice car too ?..been here before and will be back again for some LED lights and will recommend to my friends too”
“One of my favourite places to go in the GTA for any blind box you can imagine. This place is a gem and the owner is so friendly! Will always recommend this place.”
“Incredible place! I have visited several hobby stores around the world and this is one of best in terms of amount and assortment of products, tools and models. and also, the attention and service received, top level!”
“He has everything you could need. Spent a week running around trying to find sharpie china markers and he had it in multiple colours! For a very good price too! Cheaper than Amazon!”
“Visited Toronto Brewing in January 2024 and was blown away by how knowledgeable and friendly the staff are. We are from Cape Breton where this type of specialty store is virtually non existent. Kyle was soooo friendly and helpful. We will definitely be ordering more products on line. Can't wait to get back home and start brewing.”
“BEST GEM PRICES EVER! Huge selection and just an awesome place. I usually frequent the queen st location, yet this place still harbours the same energy! Definitely recommend checking out this place.”
“The Paperland team (shout out to Heidi, Florence, and Eva!) have been nothing but kind to me from the start of my inquiries to the end. I genuinely appreciate their time, customer service and advice they’ve given me to save money to print wedding invites.
As long as you’re specific to your request, they will be able to adhere to it. Just know that you’ll be responsible for your own cutting and scoring if you’re printing one or two pages with their services (honestly, not a big deal especially if you want to save money which I was opting for). I also went for a same-day last minute request and they were able to fulfill it. Will come back for other inquiries in the future!”
“This is the best comic book store! It has something for everyone of all ages. My 4 and 8 year old kids and husband love going here. They have great events and cater to families and kids. The staff are very knowledgeable and friendly and always welcoming.”
“The most organized and fully stocked bead store I’ve ever come across. The staff are incredibly friendly and they offer amazing classes / tutorials. I feel like a kid in a candy store here, I could spend so many hours.”
“Had a great experience here! I came at 11 am on a Thursday and I basically walked right in and got a photo for my Indian e-visa. The employee was quick and helpful and I got my electronic picture within minutes. I’d recommend and would go back!”
“Very friendly and helpful staff! They have a great selection of model and RC cars, planes, and more. The staff are very knowledgeable and can help with any questions you may have. This is a great place for beginner and professional RC hobbyists!!”
“One of the most unique bookstores I’ve ever seen. Probably nothing else quite like it in North America (maybe the world). If you have any interest in film/tv books, history, posters etc. this is the place for you!”
“What it is like shopping at Aj Hobbies. As you should know by now, the owner is named Arden and he does a very special job of bringing family (feeling) into RC. One of the most Humble, Kind and overall Respectable hobby shop owners in the hobby. With years of experience to guide you to exactly what you need/want. If AJ has it in stock, best know, he is going to know everything about it. You will not find a better hobby shop in the GTA. Whenever I need something, he is definitely first on my list, I have never once been disappointed.”
“A laid-back, unassuming board game store that offers unlimited in-store gameplay for $7 a person, or $5 as a member.
I wasn't asked to end my visit even after 6 hours of gameplay. They don't force you to buy a drink to play, so you're allowed to bring your own food and drinks.
For the few times that I was there, I have been lucky to find a table, since there are only 5-6 tables. It helps if you show up early.
There’s a list of 700+ games for rental or demo play on their website. They might not have the newest games, but they do carry many popular modern board games and some classics.”
“Family run business that were a pleasure to deal with. We run a Real Estate team and had our Feather Flags printed here. Working with them was a breeze...not only the best prices but the best customer service! Colours were off, so they reprinted at no extra cost. Also, picked the flags up from their home b/c I was unable to drive there during office hours! Hard to find businesses that go above and beyond like that these days! Glad to support a family run business. Thank you:)”
“When some places don't have what you are looking for, give them a try. I was able to find my game pieces as well as sleeves all in one convenient location.”
“Picking up this order was the first time I had been to the Markham location, and just like the Mississauga location, the staff were friendly and very helpful, the selection was outstanding and all of it well organized so finding what you were interested in by franchise, grade, general product line was easy. There was a wide selection of waterslide decals, tools and custom parts for anyone looking to dip into the customization side of the hobby.
While it might be hard for me to make it back to this location, I would highly recommend you give them a visit for any of your scale modeling/ hobby needs.”
“Friendly staff and good selections of games, pool cues…The management team are professional and efficient; Best game shop in the city. Will continue to to follow them, highly recommended.”
“I've been ordering my figures here for a few years now, and I can proudly say this is my go-to figure store. The staff are kind and welcoming, and reply quickly and professionally to all communications.
Fair warning, the interior is a liiittle cramped with all the product. Sometimes I feel like I'm going to cause a chain reaction of collapsing waifus (I am big and tall lol.) If the store is busy it is a little awkward to maneuver, but staff will still let you browse and take your time.
Definitely worth checking out if you're interested in anime collectibles and figures!”
“Incredible store, and has given me the ability to soothe an unending hunger to learn more about how electronics work. I appreciate the time and effort the staff put into keeping the place organized. Sayal Electronics provides a way for me to purchase what I need at short notice, rather than ordering items online.”
“One of the best in the business. Their staff always respond in a timely manner. If there's a problem with the offer, they will always find a solution.
Thank you for helping me grow my collection”
“George's Trains is an Amazing Place for the model railroad and the CN York Subdivision too; the CN York Subdivision sits just outside of the shop and the spot is perfect for Photographers and Videographers of my kind and type.
All in all, the store staff are very nice and kind, I recommend this place to a lot of new Railfans and hobbyists, 10/10 place!”

“I stumbled across this place when looking online for some Haikyuu and Blue Lock merchandise and fell in love with this place ever since. The storefront is cozy and packed with anime figurines, blind boxes, and a variety of merchandise spanning different series, with new things always popping up. The store owners are incredibly generous and friendly, able to help with any of your questions, concerns and needs. This store is truly my go to and highly recommended if you want to have a good time exploring a hobby shop. I hope more people can get to know this place because it's really super awesome!”
“I liked this little bird store. Service is friendly and they are knowledgeable and helpful. Parking available in the back with an entrance from the back as well. The only downsides are the selection of bird feed and feeders - I've found another bird store with more variety online and in store, with better price points as well. But overall, I had a nice experience.”
