“This is the go-to place for the home wine maker or home brewer in central Indiana. Ingredients, yeasts, kits, and equipment are all on hand so you can shop in the morning and have a batch in the fermenter the same day. They also have an education center one door down where they offer classes to help with the hobby. Reservations are required. They have a real commitment to hobby.”
“I'm from out of state and went there while visiting a friend. It is very comfortable, very well presented with nice wooden shelving, carpeting and a nice area in the back for gaming. The games were well displayed and the staff were very kind and helpful. Next time I visit, I'll definitely come again.”
“Been out to the store a few times now and it's been a great experience each time! Shout-out to Jared and Micah for being awesome ??. Inside is clean and well organized, with a focus on TCGs but they have a few other board games/accessories as well. Definitely looking forward to coming out for some more drafts in the future!”
“Very helpful for a very non-model train person. My son's O scale Lionel switch dial was not working. I took it, the engine and the connector track in for diagnosis. While testing, I had a wonderfully pleasant conversation with the owner. He clearly enjoys "figuring it out". I was hoping to get a functional train back home since this comes out for my boys at Christmastime and they love their trains. My dial could not get going, so they found me a replacement device in the shop, rewired it to the track piece and sent me on my way for a very reasonable amount. They also kept the original dial for repairs. Definitely felt assisted and educated in a very kind manner when he could have very easily steered me in a more expensive direction :)”
“Living near this place is both a blessing and a curse! A blessing in that I get to easily attend the game nights that they have. A curse in that I spend way too much here! They have everything you need if you are looking for DnD, Warhammer, Infinity, MTG, dice, and so much more! They have a good miniature selection too!
The game nights are fantastic! If you are new, they are welcoming and will take the time to help you understand the game and how to get started. Great place to pick up different types of board games for you and your family.”
“I love walking in there, I can find what I'm looking for when it comes to fabric, sometimes might be out, but when the product is in, I can make something great. Great prices for things.”
“Awesome shop , tons of beautiful samples, large display pieces, fossils, mining antiques, jewelry & literature. There are signs in specific areas asking you not to touch. If you can read , just follow directions, it's that simple. A few poor reviews mention the employees being rude/foul etc but that's not the case at all. The gentleman that I encountered had a stern demeanor but thats just his personality. He is very informative and helped me with no issue. Items are priced very fair & I will absolutely be returning. It has this "old & cluttered" mom & pop shop vibe that I love. Wonderful experience, wonderful business.”
“It is a great place with lots of variety. Books, furniture, clothing, home decor. Retro, vintage, and antiques. Good prices and a busy place so likely good turnover of items. The location is easy to get to, tons of parking and the staff is kind. Go if you can!”
“I recently bid on a couple of items in Greenwood Mall via silent auction. The auction closed on Monday and I called to confirm the invoice I received as the winning bidder. I paid my invoice and the two items arrived on Thursday at my door! They were flawless and well packed for shipping. Prompt service and they were friendly and attentive when I called. Local businesses are awesome! Thanks! ?”
“Super friendly and helpful staff. Plenty of people (of all ages!) Just chillin and crafting. I'm so glad I stopped by. Huge variety of yarns in all weights and colors and materials, plus trinkets, hooks, and needles. Absolutely wonderful.”
“Well stocked store. You can find home decor, crafts, artificial flowers, etc. The prices are sometimes high, but they have decent sales. You can always check online to see what’s on sale on any particular week.”
“It's a rare find indeed 2 have an awesome Hobby Store where U get 2 develop a working friendship with the Owner, who's as big an Enthusiast as U are over the toys, accessories & endless Kits! He's very knowledgeable, honest with U, has practical advice & always a great supply of needed items, even some hard-2-find'd. Gotta give BBH much love!”
“This is an excellent facility. I came here to purchase some items from the Girl Scout store and ended up taking a tour. The facility is updated and very clean. In addition to the store, which carries all your girl scout needs, they have meeting rooms, a game room, administrative offices and a lounge. They also have a very nice patio area out front and a decent sized parking lot.The store has all your Girl Scout needs from official uniform clothing, to badges, to patches, and some toys.I was greeted immediately when I came in. I told them what I was looking for and the woman working got all the pieces of the uniform together for me. They made it very easy. They all were very helpful and knowledgeable about the program. I really like this facility and hope that my daughter's troop will be able to incorporate this place into their program and maybe even go camping or earn some badges here. This place is well planned out and put together. Every scout should have the opportunity to go there at some point.”

“Great place to visit and friendly staff. I’m a frequent visitor and purchaser and have never had an issue at any point. As for the 3 comments below I was in store when this happened. The staff were friendly and trying to accommodate the situation and customer was hostile and began the conversation aggressively”
“I was able to get my Christmas tree decorations. If I return I will make sure I shop on a budget. Items may be on sale but they do add up. You can easily spend $100 ready fast. Staff was very friendly and knowledgeable about the products.”
“They got mostly everything vintage! A huge collection of Funko pops to old vintage TV shows merchandise like Power Ranges, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Star Wars, and much more! They are having a big sale, so please come and check it out!”
“The best board game store in Indy. Always updating their sale table with good deals. A large selection that isn't too spread out. Has free table space to game. And good for all types of gamers. Years of experience, just starting, large parties, 1 vs 1, heavy on theme, focusing only on strategies, etc. They have it all.”
“Went to the Pokemon TCG Destined Rivals prerelease yesterday and had a great time! This is a pretty cool shop inside the mall that offers a pretty big selection. Big thanks to Prof. Gill and the crew for throwing a fun event yesterday, and I definitely look forward to playing here again in the future.”

“I love Michael's, not sure what else is there to say. I went looking for stickers and things to start on my new 2024 Happy Planner and find other great deals for (3) daughters in the process.”
“I went looking for some 12×12 scrap book paper that was reasonably priced and all I found was the $19.99 packs. They need to put together packs that are $9.99 when you don't want to spend twenty dollars at one time and when you don't need that many sheets of paper at the moment. They will sell .”
“Been coming here for 10+ years now, and this place never fails to disappoint. Staff is friendly and helpful, the store is well organized and has lots of variety. Good location too, very close to Castleton mall. I’ve seen lots of businesses in this area come and go, but this place is always here. Highly recommend for comic lovers.”

“I go there for my specific gel pen collection that they have, and they sell my particular gel pens in variety packs and individually. The ones I go there particularly for are Gelly Rolls the metallic colors made by Sakura”
“I have been in twice, and both times I was blown away by the level of service the manager here brings to the table. I know virtually nothing about Warhammer 40k and have been very curious about it, so I walked into the store, and he had the patience to answer all of questions with the utmost professionalism.The second time I came in I had even more questions. We sat down and he showed me how to paint a model and how to pick out a custom color scheme. It was really an interesting process and he was clearly excited about demonstrating it. While I was there, several other customers came in and his enthusiasm in helping everyone was very refreshing.Lastly, he did not attempt to upsell me on anything that you wouldn't need. He listened, he made suggestions, but he never tried to make you get a bunch of things you weren't interested in and wanted to make sure you didn't regret anything you would purchase. I got the impression that comfort was the name of the game.Excellent individual at business.”
“We visited here twice on our trip for comic con. This place is fantastic for singled for all sorts of games, but especially for One Piece. Super fair prices and amazingly friendly fellas working there.”
“Great store location. The staff seemed to care about the customers! I value that, and it displays professionalism! I was very eased at spending money at that location. They had exactly what I was looking for! And if they didn't, the staff went beyond to find the nearest store, who might have what I was looking for. Definitely my go to store first! Keep up that great customer service team!”

“I went in there searching for Pokemon: Legends of Arceus, but the worker told me they were out of copies. Instead of turning me away, he suggested a plethera of other GameStops in the area that had it in stock, as well as Disc Replay. Friendly, kind, and personable staff!”
“Being from out of town I walked in here and they had literally everything I couldn’t find in my local LGS! The staff was super nice and answered everything I could have wanted! 1000% recommend!”
“Came here today to play in the Star Wars Planetary Qualifiers and I am so grateful to have had such amazing hosts. They treated all the players with respect, the owners dressed up in amazing costumes to celebrate the occasion, and they were generous enough to provide food and drinks for the players since we were there for 12 hours.
The location is a good size, hosting over 100 people, and they offer a good selection of products at pretty reasonable prices.
I'm not from the area (Ohio dweller) so I'm sad to say that I can't come out here regularly, but as someone who visits many games stores I can say that the owners of this location truly go above and beyond to make sure their guests are happy. I travel for work and will definitely stop by here again the next time I'm scheduled for Indianapolis.”
