This is a very clean and well lit shop with a welcoming atmosphere. A huge heads up before you go:…read morethe Apple Maps version is wrong. The staff explained that they have called Apple numerous times to try and correct the location, but it never stuck. Definitely travel via Waze or Google Maps instead. Finding parking can be a bit iffy since it's Hoboken and street parking only that you pay for online through the ParkMobile phone app. However, if you are coming specifically for Pokémon, you might be disappointed. Their Pokémon card selection is few and far between. Plus, everything they do sell for Pokémon is highly marked up and honestly just not worth it. But that's just my 2¢. Still giving it a 4 star because walking into this shop, I loved the aesthetic of it. They did a really great job with the interior!

The minute you walk through the door, a sense of nostalgia hits you. You see an NBA JAM arcade…read moremachine and a hockey table. They have a great assortment of hobby, retail and single cards. If you have time, look through the singles boxes. I can guarantee you'll find some great cards at a great price. The staff is extremely helpful, knowledgeable and down to earth. Bodega Cards has a great vibe with music playing in the background and the staff being so friendly. Bodega is a great place!!!!

One of the few hobby stores in midtown, Red Caboose specializes in model trains, diecast cars,…read moreplanes, and model kits but they also have a small stock of paint, supplies, and accessories. If you really need something or are in the area, the staff seem knowledgeable and helpful although the store selection leaves a lot to be desired. A lot of stock looks old and dusty and needs attention before use. There are some new boxed sets and items but pricing is high here.

Extensive collection of trains, a few cars, and diorama things. The prices in the cars, which is…read morewhat we were after, was a little steep for cars with lots of dust, some damage, and no boxes. The guy was busy selling another couple on a train set, but didn't seem to ask them any good questions till the end of his speech only to find out it was for a child, and not the gentleman. Also they have cats that roam free, and you can smell it and watch for poop.

Let's be clear. This is the place where hard-core Dungeons & Dragons Warhammer and RPG players go…read more It almost looks completely disorganized, but it is not. The staff know exactly where everything is and you can find everything from handpainted minis to obscure RPG games. What it lacks and aesthetic it makes up twice fold with games, dice, etc. If you're new to the RPG community, it will look overwhelming and intimidating. But if you're a hard-core person, this is where you get your stuff.

Extremely unwelcoming and rude staff -- worst first impression I've had at a TCG store…read more I walked in 15 minutes after opening, politely greeted the employee, and asked about hanging out in store prior to the event schedule, only to be snapped at with "no thats what no free play means" and then talked down to in a serious, condescending tone over "no free play," despite me never asking to play. The event wasn't for another two hours, and I was clearly just checking out the store for the first time. Zero customer service, zero friendliness, and absolutely no reason to ever spend money here -- good luck to them.

Not for board games. Not for me…read more I'm still giving four stars because I imagine if I was really into magic the gathering (MTG), Pokemon, Yu-Gi-Oh or other trading card games, I would love this place. They have an excellent collection of trading cards. They also host tournaments. It's a cozy store, small but with a nice seating area. I stopped by briefly looking for board games. True tabletop games, not ones that you can find at a big box store. Not monopoly and scrabble. Not even settlers of catan. Looking for something like Wingspan. Everdell. Ark Nova. Some tabletop game hobby shops have a nice wall of games like these. This place has a shelf. A single shelf. Games are facing forward so you can fit fewer games. Maybe 10 games. Pandemic, Machi Koro, Small World, Gloomhaven. So this is not the place. Going to have to look further.
