Hobby Shops
“My favorite comic store. One whole wall is dedicated to recently released issues, and another is dedicated to DC, Marvel, and misc volumes. Bins of alphabetized older issues that are 10 for $10. Manga section is large and has variety. Plenty of other collectibles and things to look at. They usually play calming video game background music, which is fun. Prices are pretty much MSRP.”
“This is my favorite book store in the city. The owners are very kind and know so much about books. The building is fun to explore. I am trying to get into horror books and Sharon hand picked me a book today because I didn’t know what to look for.”
“Super cool family business really took care of me and was more then fair I highly recommend coming here and i will definitely be coming here permanently from now on I love it here ??✊??”
“These guys are great. Super easy and knowledgeable. I had what I thought was a bunch of coins and they went through them all quickly and gave me a price! Great stuff!”
“I had to make a mask and had no idea what I was doing. Jillian and Emily both helped me find the materials I needed and determine what was actually necessary so that I didn’t spend too much. Thank you!”
“This store, while mainly providing Comics also stock plenty of hobby models and kits including DnD kits, Army painter Paints, Blockeez figures, and even a wide selection Gundam (Gunpla) kits and action bases. Sadly they don't have tools or other paints but their selection of kits definitely makes this place worth visiting. They probably have the most RG (Real Grade) and HG (High Grade) kits out of any other hobby store in the area. They don't seem to have 40k kits but there are other stores nearby to make up for a lack of 40k and tools. Overall, a store worth checking out for comics and gunpla-esque kits.”
“It was a 10/10 the staff was so cool the ramen was amazing and the store had plenty of great options sad to say I want to gate keep this place but it’s too good to keep to myself”
“One of my favorite places to go. The people that work there are super nice, help and funny. When you come in, it feels like you're stopping by a friend's house. Really cool peeps ☺”
“I had issues at another Michaels where my mat was inaccurately measured so it didn’t end up fitting my frame. I stopped in to the blvd location not sure if they’d be able to help or if I’d have to go to the original location, but Ross was super helpful and figured out the accurate measurements and got me a new mat super quickly with no questions! I so appreciate this Michaels always having great people working in custom framing!”
“Great place, was there for a Phillies autograph Tanner Banks. Tanner couldn't have been nicer. The owner was great. friendly. had great products at the store. And very competitive price too. Have to make many returns to this shop... it's wonderful!!!”
“This location was exceptional. They were well stocked and the shelves were organized and neat. The staff was helpful and polite but comfortably sidelined and not over eager. That is something I always appreciate. The clearance isle was actually even more plentiful and orderly than most stores which is odd now that I'm thinking of it. All in all this was a great Michaels trip. I'm attempting gold leaf because I want to make my own sign. They had everything I needed for under $20.”
“It's a clean and well organized store. While it isn't huge, it has a lot of products for creative of all kinds.
I go there as often as I can when my supplies run low. Their clearance section does switch places sometimes, but their selection is pretty decent.
The last time I went, their scrapbook supplies were a little thin. However, the in-store ribbon sale was well worth the trip.
The main aisles are a little tight. If you're in a wheelchair or mobility scooter, it might be uncomfortable going down the main lanes. The space between the product aisles are ok, width-wise.
They have both self-check and manned check outs, but don't have a lot of cashiers. I saw 4 cashiers during the busy part, on Christmas week. Regular days, there might be one. Maybe 2.
Their online store has products both carried directly by Michael's as well as third-party suppliers.
Prices, right now (1/11/26), if you catch the deals, are reasonable for an inner-city art store.”
“Very cute store and the new location is a huge upgrade! More spacious so it’s easier to look around and enjoy finding cute things.
It is a bit pricy tho. But mostly very good!”
“Super friendly staff, great selection, community oriented, im proud to support!
Just walk down the path.
We bough cat and panda stickers, a small panda toy, color and then fold origami paper, colorful painting glow in the dark make your own bracelet kit. All for a birthday gift. Fairly affordable.”
