My husband and I have been shopping at this store for a while with overall negative experiences…read more It's a shame that a store with some of the largest selection in the area has some rude staff and shady business practices. They are more focused on overpricing their store stock as well as selling/auctioning items on TikTok for even more money. They have even shifted and closed parts of the store to customers to make room for their TikTok streaming and inventory. When we checked out at the front today, Simon who was working the register was rude which my husband said that is common to experience. We will be trying to shop at this store less and less as these bad experiences and practices continue to happen.

So happy to see a new comic store in this location after Brian's Comics closed last December…read more This store is much more heavily slanted towards toys and collectibles than comics, but they do have a fair amount of classics for sale. They do not offer current releases, back issues only. It's a great use of a small space, packed to the gills with Funko Pops, action figures, and other toys. The art design in the store is beautiful with a life sized sculpture of Poison Ivy, posed in a jungle of greenery greeting you when you walk in the front door. The grand opening was fun, with the 501st Legion in attendance and lots of cosplayers. Ivy's Hideout is a welcome addition to the geek culture that is alive and well in Downtown Petaluma along with other stores like Goblin Bros and Nostalgia Alley. Check 'em out and support a local business.

I started collecting baseball cards again in 2019 after a 29 year hiatus. This is the first card…read moreshop I visited after deciding to jump back in. Met Kevin, the Owner, who's been in business since the heyday of collecting in the 80's. He was extremely helpful, friendly, and didn't mind taking time to answer questions, which I had plenty of since the collecting industry had changed so much since I stopped. Over the next 3 years I bought numerous hobby products from Kevin. When COVID hit in 2020, the industry went crazy and caused prices to skyrocket. Kevin remained true and offered prices well below what he could of asked for at the time. I asked him about it and he told me he'd seen numerous highs and lows in the industry, and he wanted to take care of his loyal customers who would always come back. I have a great deal of respect for Kevin, and while I have stopped collecting new cards (I just purchase vintage), I still stop by from time-to-time to say hello. He no longer sells sports cards because the distributors got too greedy, and he didn't want to pass those excessive costs to his customers. He still sells comics though, and he is extremely knowledgeable and helpful with anyone who stops by. It's a small shop and if he doesn't have something you're looking for, he has years of connections and will either find a way to get it or point you in the right direction. If you're in the area, stop on by and take a look. You'll feel welcomed and want to come back. Not enough places like this anymore.

I have been going here for so long, I think I have been through three locations. When I was ever at…read morethe first ones, I was with a parent or grandparent shopping for Magic and Star Wars stuff when I was younger, usually there for single cards which I started buying as a kid. It was really great to have a shop for cards back then as it was a lot less popular and I could pretty much always rely on OP to have something I was interested in. I started getting into Magic again around the time the newest location opened, and it was a cool experience to get into again there. Big celebrity opening, offered way more official events, just seemed like it would be perfect, but nothing ever is. Not that I dislike the store at all, but the consistency of my experience has gone down overall. A good few of the usuals are toxic players here which is pretty sad, but I still managed to start playing EDH here and learned really well mostly thanks to the community upstairs, and I managed to trade in a bunch of Pokemon cards from my childhood collection for a decent price that gave me a bunch of starter capital for EDH and newer Pokemon sets. I have managed to started playing a few games at casual cEDH tables upstairs now but still have yet to do any tournaments. I went from a complete casual player to a collector and enthusiast player in under a year playing there in my free time and the weekends. The events they hold are small but nice and always through official apps to get all rewards available. They also have some kind of event happening almost every single day; definitely over half of the days there is some kind of event. And, despite some of the somewhat valid complaints in general about pricing here, they have fair trade pricing on all new sets of any TCG release, guaranteed and they get their initial stock from the official retailer. They do also buy from customers though who are often times scalpers but they do need to make a profit and the scalping problem isn't their fault. OP themselves generally discourage things like scalping and often have product buy limits. And, through it all, I still manage to get good deals. And the right employees I like there are honest too and they always will honor sticker price on a card, so if something went up that day you will get a steal here. So to people saying the store is just out to make money, honestly, give them a break. Not only have I managed to get cards for like 60% of TCG value for hot singles, they have a huge, ever expanding 3 for $1 uncommons bin for MTG and a $10 slabbed TCG Pokemon card section next to it too now. Just because they bought some things from scalpers to increase their selection doesn't mean they have no good deals but you do have to look sometimes. Also, to the people who criticize their pricing on boxed or new packs or boxes of cards, they can only buy from the retailer once per release apparently. After their initial stock is gone they are really having to rely on other people for inventory just like everyone else. If you really think you'd rather see nothing on the shelf rather than something a bit too expensive, just go to another store; this place chooses to have a huge selection and not limit themselves. There are also definitely members of staff I highly dislike. Just as other reviewers have said, some of the workers treat being asked to find something specific even if it is meant to be behind the counter as a chore. There are good workers there a lot of the time trying to make up for it, but it can be a little disappointing considering the bad times are always pretty noticeable and do lessen the experience of being in the shop. Today I went in for a specific card and they didn't have it, but the employee there I like spent a ton of time looking through the binders in the back of the counter for it and found other things I wanted because they went into the binders. Other times I have asked for something not in the case, I have unfortunately been told, quote "If it's not in the case, we don't have it". You didn't even check your binder, how would you know? So at the end of the day, TLDR, this place isn't perfect but that is honestly because nowhere is. There is a choice shops can make to either buy from customers for stock or not. OP games chooses to keep stock going and keep its shelves stocked with lots of options even if the price has to be a bit higher on some things. The customer service can be pretty hit or miss, but the overall experience walking into the shop is generally quite good. All of that plus they have a great area to play whichever games you want upstairs and a community to play with. I don't think you can ask for much more than that.

They also have a nice selection of trade paperbacks, and graphic novels. The owner Sam guided me to Uncanny X-Men back issues, and I was lucky enough to fill some gaps in a early 90s run that I had from the 90s. They run different discounts on back issues, it was 25% off when I picked up my books. I was impressed with the organization of the back issues, and it appeared they had all been re-bagged and boarded which made them present really well. I'd also noticed they have 50-75% off on some graphic novels that they are clearing out. Recommendation: I saw they have some graphic novels of Saga of the Swamp thing by Alan Moore and Stephen Bissette. If you haven't read this, its a must buy in my opinion.

Located in downtown Healdsburg. Our party of 2 visited at around 3pm on a Monday afternoon and…read morethere was no wait. Perfect timing for happy hour which starts at 3pm though the menu only had deals for drinks. Vibes: Loved the ambiance inside and outside the patio. We wanted to enjoy the nice breeze and the patio provided lots of shade. For cooler nights, it looked like they had ample heaters around the patio. I can see this place, especially the bar inside, being very lively at night. Service: Wonderful service from our server. Since it was our first time, we asked for his opinion whether or not we ordered too much or too little. He helped us tweak some items on our order and it ended up being the perfect amount of food with no leftovers and almost cleaned out plates. Each dish came out almost exactly as we finished the previous dish. Food: -Crudo (MP): 5 pieces topped with pepper and onion -Grilled Vietnamese Steak ($19): about 5 pieces on a skewers. Meat was tender and went perfectly with the sauce. The "not so sticky rice" didn't have much flavor by itself. Had to eat it with the sauce and meat. -Mushroom eggroll ($12): 3 pieces of egg rolls. Loved the duck sauce and truffle hot mustard sauce -Kimchi Noodles ($20) + add chicken ($8): the chicken served was the Pollo A La Brasa which tasted well with the dish. I enjoyed the crunch of water chestnuts. It was a unique dish with fresh noodles. For someone who likes spicy food, this didn't have much kick for me. Would order this again! Overall: Would love to visit Lo and Behold again next time we're in town!

Nice casual option for Healdsburg that isn't too expensive…read more The cucumber plate was the highlight of dinner, I wasn't sure how much I'd like the curry vinaigrette, but it actually worked really well with the cucumbers and the dish felt nice and refreshing. I decided to get the kimchi noodles based on all the rave reviews, but thought it was only fine and a bit too oily. Perhaps I'm spoiled by Chinese noodle shops that I think do this kind of wide noodle better. I added chicken to the noodles, which is the same chicken from the pollo à la brasa dish, and it was solid. Quite crunchy and blackened but still very tender. My partner got the famed chicken tenders, which were not bad, but he found the ratio of breading to chicken a bit off (too much breading for his taste). I also really liked the fries.
