Very unfriendly, one of the dudes working was out having a cigarette in front of the store. Seriously, take it somewhere else! All I heard was "we don't stock that anymore or we can't get it". Yikers, don't waste your time...!! VERY disappointed, I will not go back!

Really couldn't have better staff there everyone is helpful knowledgeable and friendly. Lucas is a really smart and quick guy knows what I'm after just about every time I come in. Only thing I can say bad about the plane is it's too easy to spend money haha. They give the term lhs a good name and I'm happy to come in browse their wares and spend money on cool things I don't need or the things I do :)

Short Version: Norm helped me over the phone and in store and he was amazing! I had a wonderful…read moreexperience and will definitely be back! Long Version: I had been looking at getting into RC cars for awhile and had settled on a brand and model on my own after extensive research. Traxxas Bandit for $189 seemed perfect for me. It was reasonably priced with good standard performance and features. I was looking online but everywhere I saw one, it said "could take up to 10 business days for delivery" and I really wanted it sooner so I started looking around in town. A different store had one and they were nice enough but I didn't know the $189 didn't come with battery/charger and wasn't quite ready to spend the cash. When I WAS ready, I decided to call a Hobby Town instead because the other store was a little dirty and while the employee answered my questions, they weren't very personable and when I thanked them for their time but said I wasn't aware of the full cost and I'd have to postpone my purchase, they just kind of stared off and didn't say anything. Like they were annoyed I didn't spend any money after I took up only approximately 5 minutes of their time. Not the worst customer service but still far from the best. Norm at Hobby Town however was wonderful from the beginning. I perused their site to make sure they had what I wanted and called to confirm. Norm answered with an enthusiastic and upbeat attitude, answered all my questions, reserved the unit behind the counter for me and said "see you later" in a way that seemed he was actually excited to see and help me when I got there. When entering the store it was the same way, happy greeting and warm smile. I explained who I was and again he seemed excited. This made me feel very good about my choice to purchase here instead. Again he answered all my questions, made recommendations when asked for them and was even nice and acknowledged my children when they asked or told him something. We left the store smiling and excited to get my Bandit home and couldn't have been more pleased with our experience. Thanks again Notm, I'm sure I'll be speaking to you again soon!

They have a big selection of kits; they didn't have the kit I wanted at the time but they let me know when they should be restocking so I can swing by then.

We found the last table (lots of tables but they get busy!!!) on a Saturday evening-- and brought wing span so we hung out, ate, and played for several hours.

When I moved here, I was searching for a great game store, and we're in luck in KC because there…read moreare a couple great ones!! TableTop is an excellent stop for anyone interested in card games, board games, puzzles, unique finds, Warhammer materials, or groups to join! First of all, TableTop has an excellent selection of games and other related materials. I've never seen so many Settlers of Catan or Ticket to Ride expansions, but if you need them, they're available! They also just have so many games that I would have never seen before, so I always make sure to have a while to look around to find new things. Second--everyone who works there is SO GREAT and very, very knowledgeable. I can't tell you how much more exciting this makes the experience because they are willing to spend time and give options based on what you're looking for. During my last visit, I got to share some of the games I really liked, and we vowed to come back and share about our experiences next time! Love this place. Basically, I'd give them all my money if that was a feasible option. Thanks for all the great games, suggestions, and interactions, TableTop!

I've been in here on busy Saturdays and quiet Tuesdays. I love the selection, the friendliness of…read morethe owner, and the quiet joy of the little boy in me at looking at locomotive engines. If you want to get a gift for a child in your life, especially a boy, that isn't the normal Toys R Us crap, come to a train shop. You'll love it. The cheapest sets are going to run you around $100, but they will still be of decent quality.

Owner and staff is great! I sold 6 plasticville buildings and a bunch of housing accessories knowing they had to resell so we both ended up happy with the deal :) I will be back to buy as I'm into the older O Guage Building and accessories it is a bit slimmer of items they have for my style but the newer trains/ buildings/ accessories, etc look amazing and decent prices! Im just an old school American Flyer guy. But track never goes out of style so I'll be back for sure to some items up :)

We love the geekery, it's the perfect spot for you and your gang of nerd friends to gather and play…read moretcgs, Warhammer, etc. We have a huge group of coworkers/friends that show up weekly to play MTG together. They have plenty of seating to fit all of us, and they offer alot of high top tables as well for people playing Warhammer. Its always busy in here, they have pretty good pricing on snacks and drinks, and they always have the latest drops usually for new sets as well. The guys that work here are also super chill, we come in enough that they know us somewhat. Always super nice, and help out with anything we might need. If we are there super late, sometimes they lock us in on the table side of the store and just have us use the back door when we leave so it doesn't interrupt our game we are wrapping up. 10/10 one of our favorite card shops in KCMO to come and play at.

I would not go here. This place did not greet us when we walked in and when we stood at the…read morecounter, in front that incredibly tiny store (with very low inventory and selections) no one had greeted us. But when a caucasian customer stood up there for just a second, that white employee immediately jumped up to help him. Meanwhile us as black customers just stood there confused. They barely had anything to choose from in their MTG Commander decks anyways. But just to not be greeted or recognized like they did the white man immediately says a lot about this "small" business. Im sure their business supports LGBTQ+ and other minorities, but their support stops at black customers. We went yesterday (Sep6th) around the evening time. Never again. Then the other POC employee sat down and ate his pizza rather than helping out attending to customers (like us) that came in the store; as if he didn't have work to do. This store needs to work on their customer service and professionalism. This small business is small for a reason, they seem to have never grown into bigger or better things....like their inventory. Believe us we did NOT spend our money here; we went to Spankys. I will be sticking with Spankys Card Shop from now on.

Their trade in percentage for store credit is higher than anywhere else in KC, and they sell at market value for preorders etc which everywhere else around here seems to jack the price majorily depending on how popular a set of cards is going to be (MTG and pokemon primarily is what i am referring to). They have a ton of other board games in here that you won't find at a normal store, as well as alot of local handmade items. They do TCG events as well that you can sign up for to play in tournaments etc. This is Def your one stop card shop. Not to mention the employees are all super kind and very inclusive.
