“Sarge and Red's is a Great lil' shop. Nice folks too. Definitely one of the top 5 in the Detroit Metro Area. If you are looking for something Specific or even Obscure, chances are they'll have it.”
“Such a cool store. If you love cars and you have not been here than you don't love cars! Everything in models a Dad & Sons small business. Support them they have excellent customer service & lots of parking.”
“Got some Legos to put together with my son! Super nice people at the store. My son is in his 30's and I Enjoy he's still young at heart. I helped put the big one together with him and did a little one all by myself. I'm in my 60's and had a BLAST! LOVE Lego's.”
“Absolutely love this store! Such a great selection for babies and bigger kids. I have 4 nieces and 2 nephews and ALWAYS find something in here for one or more of them.During quarantine, the owner of the store went above and beyond and locally delivered baby gifts that I needed for remote showers. Customer service is above and beyond - pre and post 2020!!”
“I've just recently started coming here & this place is not bad for your hobby needs. I collect die cast model cars & they have a pretty nice size inventory. The service has been great both times I've been there, but the only thing I wish they would do is put my loose cars in some type of box with paper or bubble wrap. These cars are very delicate & putting them in regular plastic bags just doesn't work. When I got home I noticed a mirror had come of one of the cars I purchased needless to say not happy.”
“Enjoy the experience so much that the drive from the far east side doesn't hinder me. The store is about 50 percent book space and the other half fun reading/writing related merch. The staff is great and extremely knowledgeable about todays reader needs.”
“Clean, large store with a great Starbucks in the center. Only issue was no place to plug in a laptop in the cafe and I think the book store is missing some chairs or benches around the store like other locations. Staff was awesome! Very personalable service which is so unusual in any retail today.”
“I’ve been coming here my whole life. It’s changed a lot since I was a kid, they used to have an awesome candy aisle. Over the years, that aisle has dwindled down to a section. I heard it was due to theft from students in the area. This store has a variety of things, at one point, they used to sell fresh duck eggs. I love this store. They have great customer service.”
“This store is amazing! You can't find an action figure selection like this anywhere else in Metro Detroit. I was very pleased to find a selection of JoyToy figures there. I've never seen them in person and was hesitant to buy them. But after checking them out they're, I've purchased a few! I love going in every month just to see the new items that cycle through.”
“GREAT magic shop! Very talented and knowledgeable magicians manning the shop and a super cool owner. All are very friendly and got out of their way to help in any way they can. Full range of magic items for every level from beginner to advanced Pros!”
“Stopped in for free comic book day in May. Was greeted by the owner and he got us some back issues on the house! Super kind and friendly. Huge variety to choose from. Wishing them great success and I hope to be back.”

“I had been trying to find a white DS for days and was so excited when I called and was told they had one in stock!
The guy working couldn't have been nicer or more helpful and I was able to get all of the classic games I was looking for as well.
HIGHLY recommend if you're looking for older games & consoles!!”

“I pre-ordered 7 paint sets of ATOM by Ammo by Mig. I initially received only 5 out of the 7 sets. So I waited a week and then called them. The gentleman was super polite and helpful and informed me that they are on back order and the owner or manager was trying his hardest to call Ammo from Europe to get them shipped over. I continue to wait and I finally received them. I'm giving 5 stars because the company was completely transparent with me about the new paint sets and I was not charged for the 2 remaining sets until they were shipped. They were also nice enough to throw in a fee Mr Hobby Thin Cement for the delay. I will definitely do business with them.. Everyone I spoke with since January was super kind and explained the issue. 10/10”
“I have frequently visited the store and have always left satisfied with the purchases that I’ve made and the credit for the LEGO I trade in. They have a wide range of sets that are appropriate for all kinds of different types of collectors and enthusiasts so you will always find something for you inside.”
“We found lots of bargains here! The collection of bargain books is especially good. I do wish their price tags were a little more friendly. When we got home, we spent a good amount of time removing price tags and the stickiness left by the tags.”
“I cant express enough my appreciation for Matt at Big Toys. I was fortunate to purchase a pinball and arcade game from Big Toys within the past couple years. We had ongoing issues with the arcade game, in which Matt and team tried to resolve, but he knew I was not 100% satisified with the game. After owning the game for 2 years, he offered such a generous solution to trade me out with another arcade game, which he knew I was interested in.They are experts in their field, but also experts in customer service. I'm not in the market for another game yet, but I will find every excuse to be, just to continue doing business with Big Toys.”

“I come here occasionally for Squishmallows and theres usually a decent selection especially compared to other places around. Staff is friendly and won't bother you, not overly talkative like other places that can't get off your back. Prices are usually great too. I recommend checking it out if you collect Squishmallows or other plush. Kids would also love it.”

I can walk into this store and ask for a recommendation for any gift from infants to teens, and I've never had a bad experience. They have unique gifts and THEY WRAP IT FOR YOU!! That makes life so much easier and the people at this location seem especially lovely.”
“Fun place to play bingo at for sure. Lived-in in this area for 20+ years before moving to Garden City michigan, and I still go back to play with my mom, sister, and friends. Works are awesome. And yes, you can win. I won 3 months or so ago a jackpot, plus a couple of weeks ago my mom won.”

“This is an amazing store. My daughter kept pestering me about buying her anime figures, and I just couldn't find any until I finally found this place. My daughter loved it, and it's our got place for toys”
“Sometimes they are good and other times I feel they need better training. I did retail a long time ago so I know. Some are on their a game like Oliva and Donelle (tho she got my initials work which cause a problem when she was not there. The 2 gentlemen that were working getva D-.”
“I was online shopping and an item that my daughter was really hoping for was no longer available. I called the Sterling Heights store to see if they had it in stock. Luckily, they did! Tamara was who assisted me and she was super friendly and accommodating! She helped me purchase the item and is having it shipped to my home! My daughter is going to be so excited! Great customer service!! Thank you!”
“We came to The Robot Garage with about 50 transitional kindergarten students on a field trip today. Everything was awesome and the staff was fantastic. I highly recommend The Robot Garage for elementary school STEM field trips!”
“I just really want to shout out the manager who drove all the way to our home in New Baltimore to personally deliver our balloons after the uber driver bailed. I was so grateful for his excellent service and really wanting to make sure our party was great! So incredibly thankful for him (literally) going the extra mile. I forget his name (Brian maybe?) but I could thank him a million times! THANK YOU!”
“Hello
I was at the Somerset location on Tuesday for National Bear day and it was crazy work in there. It was my first time ever going and I had 2 of my daughters and my grandson with me. I want to say I appreciate the smiles and great customer service that the ladies gave. The store closed at 8 and it was ton of people still in the store and the Ladies were still smiling working and making sure our experience was good one. We left the store at 9pm and I will be coming back soon.”
“This Barnes & Noble is located on the Wayne state university campus. As expected in Midtown the parking is street parking. Upon entering the building there is a separate café that is different from the Starbucks café. There is a lot of Wayne State merch. Office supplies were largely marked up. I came mostly for the Barnes & Noble aspect, I was disappointed in the limited selection of books- only 5 to 6 rows of books that were mostly geared towards young adult and fiction. The Starbucks city area was quite large with many students studying it hanging out. I would consider this location if you're already in the area and need a place to get Coffee or do work, but I wouldn't recommend going out of your way to check this place out unless you really need to for the bookstore.”

“This is a unique store here in downtown RO. It's off 4th street, west of Main Street, just a bit off the beaten path. There's such a hodge podge collection of items here. Some fun toys for kids, adults and the adult kids too. Stuffed toys, old school or retro toys. Some clothing items too. I do enjoy taking a gander here and there when we walk around downtown. If you are in town, do check it out, you might find a unique memorabilia item you just have to buy.”
“Jasmin was extremely helpful when I was asking specific details about balloons, she never got frustrated with my questions and worked with me through the whole process. Shannon was extremely kind when I called a few minutes later to change a few details about my order. The store was out of helium and the workers were dealing with frustrated customers and they all maintained professionalism and never got flustered or frustrated with rude customers. I was extremely impressed with everyone in the store tonight. They are doing a great job.”
