The store has plenty of playing space with multiple tables and play mates already set up. Luis, the store owner, is always helpful and always there to answer questions and give advice. The store is mostly geared towards Magic: the gathering. MTG events are held throughout the week. However, Pokemon, Yu-gi-oh and Dragon ball are also carried with events every week There's a calender set up in the store to let customers what night's are dedicated to what format. This is my go-to card store in the area. Luis is always giving fair deals and unmatched customer service.

The kid working the register and the owner seemed annoyed my family and I were looking around. When I asked a question the kid just looked at the owner then he handed me the part I was talking about without saying a word. Not a huge deal but it definitely set the tone. I the. asked another simple question minutes later and was met with a snarky reply that again seemed annoyed I was even asking it. They also had "Sale" signs on items that were still selling at their normal price. Seems a little shady to me. That should've been my first sign of the type of store I was walking into. I guess I had high hopes for a RC hobby store since it a fun hobby and talking with other RCers is usually fun.

Have frequented a handful of times and always find what I am looking for and more. Their inventory keeps you on your toes as you are bound to always find something that may catch your eye.

Friendly and overall a great environment. Everything is reasonably priced as well and they always give a good deal!

They gave me a real-time inventory check and saved me from a redundant trip over the Cuesta Grade--which, as any local knows, is a massive win! It is rare to find a shop that still offers this kind of genuine, personalized service. Instead of a vague 'we might have it,' they actually verified their stock so I knew exactly what to expect. Whether you're aiming for the winner's circle in the Derby or just looking for your next project, these folks are the gold standard. They've earned a loyal customer here--make them your first stop for all things hobby!

Seems like things are in flux at Mike's Trains. We made a special trip to Lompoc yesterday,…read moreheading south from San Luis Obispo. We were planning to check out / purchase hopefully several of his handmade birdhouses. We've bought a number of them in the past. That was when he had one room as an annex to a larger gift shop. Now that gift shop is gone (or moved?) and Mike is taking over both rooms. The renovation is still ongoing. When we arrived on a Monday afternoon the shop was closed, and there wasn't a sign in the window indicating the days that they are open. We could glance inside and see the remodeling and remerchandising going on, mainly to the secondary room which used to be their only space. We could see a number of birdhouses through the windows of both rooms. The prices have increased since we were last there two years ago. I can understand this - aftermath of inflation. Had the shop been open, we would have been a quandary on making a purchase. We have kept some of the birdhouses ourselves, gave them as gifts, and resold a couple after adding a few tweaks of our own. The current price point makes it harder to think of the latter purpose. Wishing Mike well in his new, expanded space. There aren't that many train hobby shops any longer, so hopefully he'll flourish.

We had a very lovely conversation about honey, history, and his shop! He has an absolutely impressive stock of all things train related. He also had many bird houses of all shapes and sizes. In addition, he has a section reserved for local pickled foods and local honey. Unfortunately, Archie, the beekeeper, no longer serves honey in this area. However, they do carry local sage honey from Las Flores Apiaries! *I recommend calling in before you stop by! The hours are sometimes a little weird because he drives far out to come to the store!
