“This place is exactly the sort of store that I would take someone to if they were starting to become interested in Tabletop gaming. With the ceramic tile floors and the very display oriented shelving showing off tons of games and their colorful box art, it quickly establishes how far we've come from Monopoly. There are also lots of gaming oriented knick-knacks and niche miniature gaming supplies that aren't always easy to find at other stores. The prices here are definitely MSRP focused with very little in the way of discounts and compared to online retailers you're going to spend a little extra. However, why do we go to a physical store in the first place rather than staying in the comfort of our own homes and just ordering whatever we need online? For me it's for the opportunity to walk around and browse everything in person, or to soak in some of the culture of your local gaming scene, or to have a fun conversation with the staff. You're going for that added atmosphere and tactile experience and it's hard to get much better than this little store.”

“I had a neglected pen at home and cleaned it with rubbing alcohol. Ink would not flow. The very nice young man at recycler advised me to never use rubbing alcohol again. He cleaned the nib with ultrasound and recommended better ink cartridge. I now have a restored perfectly working pen that I need to treat with greater respect. The helper (owner's son) could not have been nicer. Great customer service. I think his fingers are permanently stained with ink smudges”

“Thanks for educating me on the many coins I brought into your store. I was definitely mislead by what I read on the internet. I am very impressed with your family history and the business you operate. Your store is easy to get to with parking right in front. (So glad I did not have to go to a building.)I highly recommend anyone needing to sell or get educated on old coins, Mont Blanc pens, bullion, general gold or silver, to contact Crystal Coin & Collectibles. It’s a fun store to just stop by and look around too!!”

“This place doesn't look like much from the outside, but inside you'll basically find hobbyist heaven. At this point Hub Hobby is my go-to for Miniature Wargaming models and supplies. It's one of the only stores I've been to in recent memory where they actually have appreciable discounts on items, not to mention a rewards program if you're planning on becoming a long term customer. The staff in my experience is very friendly whether you're asking them questions in person or even shooting them a question on Facebook. Their Gundam section is especially notable to me, with the best selection I've seen in the entire state and a bunch of other Japanese model kits right next to all the Warhammer you could want. Puzzles, classic games, tabletop, wargaming, RC vehicles and all the tools and specialist items you could need. I feel like this place is an incredible boon to the whole local hobbyist community and I look forward to each and every visit I take to this location. Just exceptional stuff.”

“This is the best fossil and rock store ever! Why? Because you can sign up to take lapidary classes in the shop in the back and learn how to cut and polish stones like agate and much more. The classes are well run with instruction on cutting, grinding and polishing, and they make it very accessible to the beginner.”

“The food is terrible. But the service is amazing! I love this shop. It has everything I never knew I needed. If you are reading this be sure to add visiting the best store in the Texa-Tonka Mall to your bucket list! FREE NOSTALGIA”

“Fan HQ is a great store. They host autograph signings, most of which are paid, but they also sometimes have free signings (they just hosted a free event with Louie Varland from the Twins). This place is the most reliable one around to host autograph signings and also functions day-to-day as a sports memorabilia and apparel store. Staff is really friendly and welcoming, and the owner Shawn is very personable. They have some Fan HQ exclusive items, such as T-shirts and limited signed and numbered memorabilia. I hope this place stays open forever, as chances to meet local (and sometimes National) athletes is really fun.”

“Knowledgeable staff and lots of variety.Went in to browse and found a couple fun nerdy games. Also didn't know Arkham Horror was a 1-4 player game and that there is a card game version!”

“This is the art supply store for all professionals and wannabes, (like me). And the employees are all great to work with.I’m not sure if they have to be artists to work there but they know their merchandise and will walk you to what you’re looking for if you ask.I’d give it five stars but their prices are premium, (I’m in a fixed income), . You do get what you pay for, (price vs. quality is a direct proportion), and sales are great.”

“Get customer service. Our board game did not come complete, came back to the store and they ensured we had a complete board game. Now looking forward to hours of fun”

“I’m and out.. no issues whatsoever beside those in the parking lot, but that’s not really Hobby Lobby’s job to control or direct people how to drive or watch out for others. The cashiers are wonderful and I am able to get the help I need when I have a hard time finding something..”

“What a gem of a shop! Great place for gamers and stocked with all your gaming needs. I'm a comic book guy and this place is a sweet little honey hole.

“Probably my fave card shop in the metro. It's very cozy and welcoming. Huge variety of everything. I especially like the sit down area where you have plenty of elbow room to go through stuff, without feeling pressed to buy something or rush through the process. They are also very reasonable in negotiating prices of used items.”

“I made a purchase online because another store told me they didn't have the item. I was in the other store and saw that they did have the item, and it was on sale. I went to Michael's feeling badly that I had to pick something up and return it immediately. The young man at the counter was so polite and helpful. I told him that he had very good customer service skills. I don't know if this can get back to him, but it was Michael's in Maple Grove, Minnesota, and the gentleman had very long, long hair.”

“I believe that Bill is as kind and honest as they come. My dad bought coins from him for years, and I can see why. He made selling a special collection a fun and educational experience and paid incredibly fair prices. When I got quotes from other dealers, they took an unimpressed tone, I suppose to try to buy at a lower price. Bill was different immediately because he was genuinely thrilled to see the coins. He got me involved in developing the price estimates, something I’ve always wanted to know how to do, and was completely transparent about his offer. Wandering around his shop is an experience in and of itself. My husband said, “There are so many things in here I never thought I’d see in my life.” There are a lot more details of the kindness Bill showed than I can include in this review, but I can’t say enough about the integrity of this business.”

“Very patient and friendly. Took the time to explain and share tips with my 10 year old novice coin collector. Fair pricing and even gave him a few extra sleeves for his coins at home. We will be back soon.”

“Up until a few months ago we were not aware that Michaels did professional picture framing!We had two original pieces framed and the results were fantastic! Alex helped us and his recommendations and knowledge were key to getting the results we love!We just went back with two more original pieces and thankfully Alex was there again to help us! Again we relied on his opinion to help us create what we hope, and expect to be another masterpiece!! Michael's needs to, if it already isn't, take care of employees like Alex, and the other employees in the store, all of whom were very friendly and helpful!I've attached one print purchased at the last MIA artist event. The other is not suitable for all. (language)”

“Had the nicest experience at this location today. Was looking for an item that was not on the shelf and one of the employees (Kennedy) went in the back and grabbed the items i was looking for. This is above and beyond good service and this employee along with a few others seemed very kind and couldn't of been nicer. I would recommend this location above some of the others i have visited without a doubt. You are great! Thank you”

“Running errands around Eden Prairie and stopped by this Michael's to look for a frame. I had the print with me as I wasn't sure of the best way to display it (a papyrus print from Egypt). There were a few options that would have worked, and then I spotted the *perfect* frame! So happy to spend $35 rather than a couple hundred on custom framing. This location has self-checkout lanes, which I didn't have any problems with. The gal at the regular register was standing by and thoughtfully offered me a larger bag for my frame.”

“I'd highly recommend. I have been to most of the card shops in the area.. in comparison they are friendly. Knowledgeable and don't feel rushy in purchase or sales. I've recommended to my friends to go here and they thanked me for the experience they had. It's a more professional vibe that I get. Sports/ MTG / Pokémon and more.”

“It's Michaels. On a good day, the people who work here are undertrained and 16. So yes, the customer service is not out the door. And their curbside pick up is actually come and ask for help service. Oh well. It's a bunch of craft supplies. That's why youre here. Too many stupid sales and coupons might make you wonder if youre ever getting the best price or if you're a sucker but at least you doing something crazy with your life and not supporting other companies that suck so much worse.”

“I can find everything I need in this store and it doesn't necessarily need to be for crafting. I've found leather glue for repairing a purse, different markers for marking on fabric and metal. Michael's has it all. Plus they usually have a coupon off at the register! I highly recommend this store!!”
