I was genuinely impressed by how massive this Hobby Lobby store is--easily bigger than Safeway,…read moreParty City, or even Walmart Neighborhood Market. From the moment I walked in, the staff stood out with their friendliness and eagerness to help. They were more than happy to guide me through the store and help me find whatever I was looking for, and they did so with genuine enthusiasm. The store itself is a treasure trove of interesting and unique items. Whether you're into home décor, crochet, art supplies, painting, photo framing, or even just looking for cool mugs or crafting accessories--you'll find it here. It really does live up to the name when it says anything related to your hobby is under one roof. What surprised me the most were the prices. I compared several items with what's available online on Amazon, and Hobby Lobby consistently came out cheaper--which was a pleasant surprise! This is definitely my new go-to spot for all things creative and decorative. I'll surely be returning for my future needs. Highly recommended!

I stopped by today looking for a hard plastic serving tray with a Christmas design on it…read more It was really busy inside. Employees were stocking the aisles everywhere, which made it hard to maneuver through. Shouldn't stocking happen before the store opens? They had a ton of Christmas decorations everywhere. They still had some fall aisles, but I'd say the majority of the inventory was Christmas. The aisles that were already stocked were nice and neat. It's a bit overwhelming in there. There's so much to look at that you can easily spend an hour in there without realizing it. I finally asked for help for what I was looking for, but they only had fall serving trays. So I got that instead. I also got a cute gingerbread house-shaped doormat, and a gingerbread boy and girl yard decoration. They have a ton of ornaments. I found some frosted tiny gumdrop ornaments for my miniature Christmas tree. Everything I bought was 50% off, which was a great deal. Checking out took a long time. The employees at the checkout literally have to key in each item. This is a brand-new store. Why don't they have a scanning system? This makes for a very long wait just to buy your items. I think they need to upgrade their system with the proper technology of our time. The young lady who helped me check out was very sweet and friendly.

My 4-year-old is obsessed with anything with 4 wheels, so getting back into RC with him has been such a blast. We came out to get my 2WD buggy on their awesome indoor carpet track and let my son check everything out. The whole experience was great. The track is fantastic, and the shop had such a welcoming vibe. One of the highlights was their indoor rock crawling area. We had been wanting to try crawling, and Will was kind enough to loan us a crawler to test out. Needless to say... we ended up leaving with one! Overall, we had an awesome time. Everyone was super friendly, helpful, and made us feel right at home. Can't wait to come back for more track time and check out some of the upcoming events. Be sure to support your local hobby shop!

I've went here multiple times and each time one or more of the employees have been rude towards me and have made snarky remarks. If your life sucks figure it out instead of taking it out on customers. I've said this before and I'll say it again, don't work customer service if you cannot be nice towards others! Other than that, the store has a good selection of merchandise. Such a shame the experience is ruined by rude people.

Short review since we only come here for the gashapon machines…read more I really like coming here. Get some anime gashapon, but it's hard to get some of the ones you like since they're out of stock. I really wish they would stock up more on the popular items. Things are getting a little pricey. $15 for five tokens, and most gashapon are two or three tokens. A lot of the gashapon are anime, sanrio, animals, even food. The last time we were there, they even had little Nikes! The only downside is that it gets pretty warm in there. Especially when the place is packed, it gets really hot. Hopefully they'll think about adding air conditioning or at least fans soon.

I think they do a good job of giving back to the community by hosting tons of play nights and trading events. I love the fact that they have a HUGE selection of different TCGS, especially Weiss Schwarz and pokemon! They have tons of unique products that you literally CANNOT find anywhere else. Their TCG accessories are abundant compared to other stores, so many options to choose from!! And they showcase small artists! Which unfortunately a lot of stores don't do, which makes no sense to me because art is the main drawing point of the TCG community. The employees are lovely as well! My problem with Tofu that causes it to not get a five stars review is that the store is tiny. There is almost no space to walk around if you end up going here when they're busy - which is 90% of the time. Since they host game nights almost every single night, there is almost always no room to walk around and explore since the store will be packed. Which is sad because I like to take my time to decide what I would like to buy. It honestly makes me not want to go here because there are plenty of other stores in the area that have a lot of room compared to Tofu. Another con is that it's located in Vietnam town, with tens of other businesses surrounding it. Finding parking is an absolute nightmare because there are almost always events being hosted in Vietnam Town. You either have to circle around the same area for ten minutes if you want parking that's close to the store or you have to walk 10 minutes to the store. It's honestly a shame that they opened a store in this location because it's the main reason why Tofu isn't my NUMBER ONE go-to store anymore. Pricing and community almost isn't worth it to justify a small store that doesn't have much room to walk around and is difficult to find parking for. I'd rather go to a different store that has less foot traffic or is bigger. I try to put up with it but it's very frustrating . Either way love the store but I rarely go here because of the reasons I listed.
