PM Hobbycraft, located in Calgary, has been a staple in the hobby community for over sixty years and is recognized as the largest store of its kind in Canada. With an impressive 12,000 square feet of unique products, it caters to a wide range of interests, including RC cars, planes, boats, model trains, and even character cake pans for birthday parties. Many customers appreciate the vast selection and the store's organization, which makes it easy to navigate. The staff at PM Hobbycraft are frequently praised for their friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable service. They are willing to assist customers in finding products or ordering specific items if needed. However, some reviews mention that while the quality of service is high, prices may be a bit steeper compared to other stores. Despite the overall positive experiences, there are a few negative reviews citing poor customer service encounters. One customer expressed dissatisfaction with how they were treated, leading to a decision to shop elsewhere. Nonetheless, PM Hobbycraft remains a go-to destination for hobby enthusiasts in Calgary, offering a shopping experience that is generally enjoyable for both new and seasoned hobbyists.
Came in for a nostalgic feeling, unfortunately they don't sell any train stuff anymore but they updated the inside like crazy. They have a full indoor RC car track that you can go and use, rent a car for 20 bucks and enjoy! They also have a small table for offroading and let us borrow some crawlers.

I go to PM Hobbycraft very frequently, as they have an amazing supply of rc's, rc parts, rockets and many other things, and their team is very knowledgeable and kind.
