This 2nd hand Lego store is 2nd one with in a 20 minute drive . Another one is in pleasant hill. What I like about this store is the display and light area. Lots of lights and Lego display . The owner Mike is very friendly and knowledge about Lego . There are usually two other gentleman who are just as friendly. On like the other store that has only one worker to help and the owner hides in the back. The San Ramon store has more used Lego and there is always something to find every time I go. There is also new sets and promotions on there instagram page. There sets and figures are around the normal price. There used sets tend too be better. I've seen Lego classes from the Brickmasters that are an option to join. In general the friendly staff, more Lego , and presentation is why its getting a good rating.

I think when writing reviews, it's important to know a little about the reviewer. Reading a review without a little backstory is a little tough to judge in my opinion. Granted it's not a thing I've done before but retail is a little different than food. You can look back at my food reviews and get a judge of who I am as a foodie then go from there. With retail I have little if any point of reference. Since I was a child, I've loved Lego. My first toys I can remember were Lego sets. Like many people of my generation, I simply grew up and toys (Lego included) became a thing of my past. I found things like girls, sports, video games, etc. to fill the space of entertainment Lego gave me for years. Fast forward to now, where I have found a new love for Lego thanks to Lego Masters and a case of Alzheimer's my mother acquired several years back. One of the few things that both of us are entertained by have been those little colorful bricks from Denmark. That being said, I have become a builder as well as a collector since we both started watching the show religiously.In my search for stores to shop at I went to my local Bricks & Minifigs in Pleasant Hill. As much as I enjoy shopping there my favorite staff member informed me that the one in San Ramon is the one, I would love the most. She was right. It has everything you'd want in a Lego store. Big selection of both new and used products, knowledgeable staff, but most importantly a sense of home. I say this because I have always been someone who's been fascinated with hobby specific stores. In my experience, the biggest problem is if you feel new to the hobby these types of stores can feel un-welcoming. As if you didn't feel like you belonged. I say this because there are many hobbies, I've wanted to embrace but the stores attached to them never seem like they want to attract new people to their world. Bricks and Minifigs in San Ramon is not one of them. Since the moment I stepped in I always felt welcomed. The more I stepped into their door the more they took time to get to know me. But I would always notice as much time as they spent with me they never neglected anyone else who came into their world. I felt so comfortable that I even started bringing my mother who they embraced as if she was shopping with me, though in reality they always found her a chair to sit in while I browsed and chatted with the staff. Mind you, I already loved this store on my own. Their dealings with my mother were a bonus. I could go into that in detail but that's a review all on its own. Simply put, this store is everything you'd want in a local community store. I only wish other businesses would take the time to visit places like this and see what it takes to build a community within a store that can become more than just a place to shop for a specific hobby or need. Even though I still visit all the stores that specialize in Lego in the Bay Area, Bricks and Minifigs is the one I spend the most time in and make it a point to spend money in because it deserves the support of its community.

I like to come by and check out the Star Wars collections and Minifigs. This store has a lot of Star Wars Lego! Sorry, I can’t say much about the other sets, but I do love the store

Great store, so glad they opened in the area. My son and myself LOVE legos and it’s a perfect. Owners and employees are very helpful, knowledgeable, and friendly. Classes with Lego masters are an awesome touch. If you or your kids are into legos at all you must visit this store daily!

I absolutely LOVE this store... probably one of the best bricks and mini figs stores (and we've been to a lot!) I come in with my 6year old pretty frequently and have always been pleased with the new stock they often have and how clean and organized this store is! The owner and all his staff are extremely helpful and knowledgeable... and I appreciate how they indulge my son's curiosity with the barrage of questions that he asks! I also appreciate their very fair prices. Will continue to patronize this store over and over again because we have enjoyed every visit!

I Took in a few BRAND NEW sets to trade-in for a Set they had in stock PLUS CASH$$ .... They Offered less than 50% Retail Price on my sets (all Recent/Retired sets) ... They Expect 150% Profit Margins.... Good Selection.. Competitive Prices $$$, Didn't Feel welcomed..... even with money to and trade-ins....
