“Absolutely love this place! always my go to for my cakes they have so many cake pan molds you can rent! The frostings are amazing and don’t have a dye taste everything is so good! 100% recommend! Staff is so friendly and always have great recommendations! Can’t thank yall enough for making my events great!”
“What a cool shop! Not a huge selection of back issues, but a nice assortment to look through. Looks like an incredible place for gaming with multiple rooms and table spaces for tournaments, etc.”
“You name it they have it. Super helpful staff and always willing to help you. Truth is you could spend hours in there looking at everything. If you have a little one they are the best place to go and even if your a adult you will find it full of things for you. RC cars,airplanes and even boats. Rockets, models and rock tumblers. You will walk out with something and still have money in your pockets. Decent prices.”
“It’s a museum, it’s a toy store, it’s a game shop, it’s an experience one must have! Full of stunning Lego (or Lego adjacent) custom builds of military aircraft and vehicles. Showcases the art and skill of true Brick Masters! It is inspiring just to see what can be created!”
“I've Been coming to Axman surplus stores since 1971.... Sometimes all you have to do is walk in the store and you'll be the inspired to build a new project From their items... The bonus is reading some of the funny signs they use to describe their items because it makes it hard to be in a bad mood....for long. I simply love axman surplus”
“I know my friends who are true artists come here often, but I'm more of a hobby artist. This time I was treated very kindly by Cashier 71737 (their name wasn't on the receipt). I recently discovered Cyanotype. I previously used the kit (requires mixing chemicals) and I wanted to try the pre-treated sheets. I was led to the product area, questions were patiently answered, and she even asked if there's anything else before giving me space to ponder. I'm pleased with my new hobby so far.”
“Good process for dropping off trades and fair value on store credit. My one knock was how hard it was to track down in the labyrinthine basement of this big industrial building.”
“I have been using their blades for over 30 years. The craftsmanship is amazing and they stand up to years of combat. There are no finer weapons out there than those from Arms & Armour.”
“Sweets is my go to when it comes to kendamas. I ordered online and left a note asking if they could give me a well balanced kendama for the one I was ordering and they did! They left me the specs of the dama on my packing slip and gave me some candy too! Shout out to the sweets team for spreading the love really do appreciate it!”
“I had stopped by with my 7 year old son who is just getting into coin collecting and had a tremendously great experience visiting the coin shop. My son was given some neat gifts and great advice for his start in collecting and couldn't have had a better time visiting.
We will definitely be back soon.
Thanks again!”
“If I didn’t use self restraint, the amount of money I could spend here would be dangerous. The assortment of games and puzzles available here is wonderful, I imagine it would be a bigger challenge not to find something that will grab your attention here. Two player games, group games, role playing adventures, trading cards, classic puzzles, disc golf discs, or board games, whatever your cup of tea they will have something available for you. In addition to the selection of games to build your collection there is a great assortment of various accessories like creative dice or playing cards for a more invested hobbyist as well. They offer a rewards program if you expect to be a regular customer, and customer service is always friendly and helpful.”
“Love Micheal’s. As craft store options become more sparse Michaels always has a variety of craft options. It’s better to in store than shop online in my opinion. They actually had a yarn for a project that I started a few years ago still in stock.
My kids love the store as well.”
“Really nice and large game shop. Multiple private rooms available for rent. Large event area with nice tables and chairs. Coffee shop, munchies, and even selection of beer options. The staff I interacted with were friendly and helpful.”
“I love this place because it has family atmosphere along with professional employees with vast variety of knowledge. I like the fact they have the newest available products with possibilities for an amazing pull. Your going to feel better after you visit with everyone here.”
“Michaels mostly competes with Hobby Lobby, and while I think Hobby Lobby is generally a better store for most people- this location is pretty solid. Good selection, fair prices and decent clearance deals.”
“I have always enjoyed shopping at this location in Har Mar Mall. It's clean and organized and stocked with good products. There's tons of parking, and they open earlier than most retailers.
Within the last couple of years, they changed all registers to be self-checkout. It works out fine most of the time, but it's a huge pain the butt if assistance is required. There are only ever 2 staff in the store at a time, so if they're busy with other tasks/customers, it's much faster to just cancel the transaction and start again than wait for help. I feel bad for the staff in general. They're friendly when approached but clearly stressed trying to keep up with everything.
Unless I'm in the mood to peruse the aisles for possibilities, it's less of a downer and hassle to order things through the app and pick it up.”
“It is an OK store, I got the after 4th of July discount which was pretty good but their prices are getting too high, just like everyone else I guess. The store is well organized, it smells nice and it's pretty easy to find what your looking for.”
“Just stopped in for 10 mins driving around between appointments. Bought 3 items. In the time I browsed the guy working helping 5 groups. He was nice and helpful to everyone. He offered the normal things I know he's required too but did it with kindness and not pushy. I'd definitely come back. Great employee. Don't screw it up GS and lose a real one.”
“Great selection and prices on the website. I ordered online and everything I ordered arrived in great condition. Also despite what some of the other reviews say, I thought customer service was very good through email and phone. Only reason I can’t give 5 stars is because it took quite a long time for the package to arrive. Would recommend”
“Great shop, always looking for local Minnesota items when I visit the state. Born and raised in the Duluth area living in Maine. If I was driving back to Maine I would of got a neon piece, prices are very fair compared to east coast neon prices. Very happy with items purchased. This place will be a regular stop for me in my future visits to the area. Hopefully get a neon sign!!! Looking forward to seeing your Auction items”
