The Hobby store for all your board/card gaming and model needs! The staff are delightful and…read moreextremely knowledgeable about the games and models they sell. There is a large variety of board games and models, and quite a few card games. They've done a great job maximizing the space they have and I hope they're able to some day move into a larger space! Would be great to have room to sit down and play games inside the shop. Would definitely recommend stopping buy and checking them out!

Would leave zero if the app would let me. This store does not stand behind it's own return policy…read more There policy as listed on their website states, "Not every decision can be a winner, and we understand that. That's why we like to keep it simple: if you are not 100% totally, completely, and unconditionally satisfied for any reason whatsoever, let us know! Here at LionHeartHobby.com, you are in safe hands." Purchased and item that you can't tell satisfaction without using it, and then their excuse was, "we can't take it back because it was used." This is why Amazon is taking over, price was lower and returns are accepted. No reason to support a local business when their prices are higher, and they lie about their return policy. Their return policy should just state Caveat Emptor, because when we say if you are not 100% totally, completely, and unconditionally satisfied for any reason whatsoever, let us know, we're just gonna tell you to go pound sand. And those safe hands don't even exist. Any business that can not stand behind it's policies is just lying. And liars don't deserve to be in business.

The bad - going with a young child who wants every single car! They have some cool stuff there that's for sure. Best hobby shop in Austin Area.

I started visiting the store about a year ago and have had an absolutely wonderful experience as a result. The store is well stocked and runs events for both model painters and tabletop players. Special shoutout to Colin who not only does a marvelous job guiding new players, but also has on more than one occasion worked his magic to help me find models that might otherwise have been unavailable. I highly recommend stopping by during their Store Anniversary month where you can earn rewards for your Warhammer purchases, such as a free model, and other gaming tools.

Not sure it would render a visit to go out of your way to this Austin location unless you were actually in the area, but we personally were glad to stop by. It is located amongst residential houses and next to small boutiques and various small businesses in the area. So not much of a store and maybe just call versus stopping in if you are seeking something. Or better yet, save yourself the trip and just visit their online store.

Let me start off by saying I traveled everywhere looking for the right comic book store here in…read moreAustin, Texas. Finally, I stumble into this place. The gentleman was gracious. The music was great and he was very informative about what I was looking for. Nicely hooked me up with their monthly program so I can get all the comics I needed, and they were on point for about six months. Then comes my birthday, very excited to bring my son in and grab my monthly comics. I called the shop on the day of my birthday and the lady owner answered the phone, at this point I have met all the gentleman and just wanted to introduce myself. Me: " Hello who am I speaking with? Her: " I didn't give a name" Me: " correct that's why I'm asking" Her: what can I do for you" Me: " id like to know who I'm speaking with please" Her " This is Kings Cache" Me" I understand that I'm a new member and just checking in on my comics" then her tune changed. Graciously she wanted to be friendly instead of acknowledging me from the beginning and being secretive and ominous. All of this came from her with a very cantankerous attitude and resistance to lead with the right customer service. They have caller ID there, so usually when I call the fellas already acknowledge me but name. Can't believe the fake high road this lady wanted to drive on. I've had nothing but great experiences and then I call and she gives me two shades of gray. Buyer beware, they are nice til they grab ya, then ounce they have you, the care to get to know you or give you the respect you deserve is obsolete. The one gentleman is great the other two could care less for you. Austin Books and Comics and Batcity comics have now graciously taken my business. Which is good because if I see another funko pop my head will explode. Stick with dolls and leave the comics to the big boys. Just because it's a hobby doesn't mean you have to give it a bankers mentality. Ebay, Other stores and Collector conventions offer too much competition. Be better humans. You made this guy feel awful on a day that was so important you won't realize. At the end of the day you just had to be nice, you know who you were and to that my circles and collectors corners will not drive from hill country anymore to spend our disposable income. Thank goodness Batcity just opened up. Can get two more comics for the gas saved!!! I hope this helps do better, because I'm still reeling and this message doesn't do what I witnessed justice.
