“The owner is the main reason I come here. Super knowledgeable and helpful, doesn't try and sell you something that won't work. Paint and model selection is top notch!”
“I have been going here for band shirts and accessories since I was 17/18 in 1998! Its a pillar of the community for sure. Huge selection great staff and they even have live music sometimes to support the local scene.”

Additionally have done many high end orders with confidence and without fail.

“Great place to shop for games. Guy working at the store is highly knowledgeable and kind. Provided useful information for the product I was buying. Highly recommended.”
“I saw these guys at this year's Mini Maker Market 2014. They were one of many 3D printing booths. Their booth was really busy of people curious over their models. Not much presentation as the process is semi self-explanatory, however, they were cool with allowing you to touch the samples and to watch the slow process of an item being made in person.”
“Just an amazing store with incredible staff and top-of-the-line selection! The rewards system they have in place makes this my favourite store to shop from, and stole my business away from e-tailers. I genuinely love every time I go here!”
“Helpful and knowledgeable staff is a small but absolutely packed game store, they have all of the highlights and quite a bit of the more obscure games as well. Books galore and even some puzzles. A highlight being that they have alternate covers for some of the D&D books. Be sure to check out this excellent small business and keep local game stores around!”

“My closest shop for Pokémon cards, D&D, wargaming stuff, and board games. Their prices are very fair too, we always walk out with something. Love the staff too.”
“With fewer and fewer LGS left, magic stronghold is a solid example. Friendly staff, lots of space for friendly and competitive play, and lots of product available.”
“Went here a few days before Halloween to get some Halloween costume supplies. One staff near the fabric section was super knowledgeable about what material would work with my project. She also gave me alternative material, and helped to locate it. I always go here to get some arts & craft supply. Price is reasonable for very niche items.Pro tip: Always check the coupon online, managed to get 40% off.”
“I had called Chris in June to inquire on several pieces of China and silver but due to my schedule I only met her in October …. I had the pleasure of meeting with Chris for my China and her husband Bob for my silver. They were both professional, friendly and they knew their stuff. I would highly recommend them both if you are looking at selling any China and silver…in addition, I felt they were fair with their pricing. 5 star rating for sure!!”
“Came in looking for specific cards (NBA cards from '91 / '92 / '93) and actually found a couple of them!
It was a quiet time of day and the owner, Wally himself had a quick chat with me and told me a little bit about the shop - they started back in 1991 which was pretty awesome. Great shop, cool owner. Will definitely drop by again.”
“Had an amazing experience with one of the associates Ricky. He went above and beyond for my sister and I. We were looking for some red bandanas but they were sold out, so we quickly looked at the fabric to see if we could make some. Problem was, we weren't technically allowed to cut it out ourselves. Ricky told us he'd try his best to take care of us, and he sure did. Not only was he quick with his actions but he was very helpful and suggestful as well. Great person and so happy we had your amazing help!”
“I love the Guys here at this Store..
I’ve known them for quite a few years now.
I periodically visit the store and I am glued looking at so much of their merchandise.
They are very welcoming and very friendly people:-))))
I will visit them again soon!!!”
“Why do you have such a limited selection of buttons. Checked back several times; pathetic. So I can buy the yarn here to knit or crochet a sweater but have to go somewhere else to find buttons. Michaels should have a good selection of buttons. Very frustrating!!”
“I had such a wonderful experience at Michaels! The store is full of creative energy, and I was able to find exactly what I was looking for—and even more.
But what truly made my visit special was the amazing help from Pari. She was incredibly kind, patient, and genuinely attentive. She didn’t just assist me—she made the whole experience feel easy and enjoyable. It’s rare to meet someone who cares so much about helping customers in such a thoughtful way.
Thank you, Pari, for your beautiful energy and support. You made my day!
I’ll definitely be coming back 🤍”
“Had a really positive experience at Michaels. The staff were friendly, knowledgeable, and incredibly patient. A friend I was with was having issues with her card, and unfortunately it took about 10–15 minutes to get sorted out (not the first time it’s happened). Even as other customers started getting impatient, the cashier remained calm, understanding, and extremely patient the entire time. We ended up having a really nice conversation with her while we waited. Great customer service and a reminder of how much kindness matters.”
