    Comics, Coffee, and Collectibles? Yes, yes, and yes This is such a cool place. The staff are fans and love to share their passion about all things comics. The selection and layout is easy for new comers and just right for experienced visitors. The coffee is pretty good The memorabilia is super cool and selfies are welcomed. The hours are sweet. Early in the morning and until either 7pm or 8pm depending the day. Whether you're a Trekkie, DC fan, Marvel maniac, or one with the force, Collectors Outpost should be your new hangout.

    We went to eat next door of this place and there was a wait so I told my husband to kill time let's go check out next door. We didn't know it was a coffee shop once we open the door to the shop... My husband was in awe with the shop the action figures they had on the walls and around was great its the coffee shop for comic book lovers and coffee drinkers. My husband is both. My husband had an Americano he loved the taste of the coffee and the temperature was great. My nephew he is only 4 had a cold chocolate milk and I had something with Carmel and something else I already forgot but it was so good and not too sweet it was perfect. My husband was just looking at everything and making a list of things he wants for Xmas from this place. The two gentlemen who where working the coffee bar where great attentive and nice. We definitely will be coming back for the coffee and the comic books.

    This coffee shop/marvel/Star Wars/DC collector shop is awesome. Their coffee drinks are pretty awesome as well! We had a green goblin breve type drink iced and it was awesome. Better than Starbucks! Definitely recommend this place. Especially if you love comics and collector items!

Highly recommend to try this place (: they also have a decent selection of manga

    This is by far the coolest coffee shop I've ever been to! Along with being really good coffee, it's almost a comic book store with tons of awesome, high end figurines. Staff was extra friendly and totally happy for a Saturday morning.

    My son has been raving about Collector's Outpost so we had to check it out! I was blown away by the decor and displays! This is a cafe and comic book shop. The coffee offerings are superb! We ordered the Princess Leia, the Green Goblin, the Fox, and the Star Lord. The blend of coffee and flavor are masterful! You have got to check this place out! It is fun and unique!

    Specialty pumpkin latte from the full espresso bar!

    Ok! This place is amazing! So random too to be located in the mall. It's like a trip down Nostalgia…read moreLane! Holy shit! I was so excited to just stumble across this place yesterday. Remember back in the 80's, 90's, 2000's going to the mall and having stores like Sam Goody, Virgin Records, or Borders Books and Music?! How much fun that was! Was always exciting for us 90s kids to spend some time in any music store back then, getting the newest CDs, going through the insert & then basically memorizing the entire cd in a matter of days lol...as long as it was good haha! In the late 90s and early 2000s I ran a music store and then mid 2000's worked at a Hastings in Flagstaff. This place is VERY similar to Hastings. Aww I miss Hastings. What a great store. Music stores in general I miss so much. tons of CDs, Blu-ray's, and DVDs. Pretty sure I saw a shit load of games as well. LOTS of stuff to go through! It was busy as hell in there too which made me even happier to see. Used or not, what a fantastic place and I am so happy it's in existence. Even if it doesn't last as long as it should, it's wonderful to see it and to see so many people there and going through the music and whatnot. I didn't get to interact with the staff. They were busy. I only saw one employee. Hopefully he wasn't the only one there bc it was definitely busy. I get the crowds there have to do with Christmas shopping, BUT! seeing the store and the tons of people there, it gives me hope. Want a cool little flashback to the 90s when life was incredible..and the music was top tier...check this store out. Just getting traffic in there will help keep this place going. Maybe it's pop-up? Who knows. I love it. Thanks for reading, YelperEntertainerees! Cheers!

    Nerds Unite! I first read about EntertainMart via one of the apps I follow for new businesses…read more To see EntertainMart through my eyes of complete nerdiness was something else entirely. Let's start with the basics of what they have DVDs CDs Records Movie Posters Funko POPs! Anime Comic Books Manga Baseball Cards Pokemon Cards Game Systems and their cartridges I was browsing the Funko POPs! when my brother yells from across the store, 'Yo Bro! Check this out!' I was thinking he found something that I probably had seen before but not today! There was a section of classic Atari 2600 game cartridges. Here are some of them as of Sunday Adventure Battlezone Centipede Crystal Castles Defender Football Joust Pele's Soccer Star Raiders Yar's Revenge but wait there were more... Activision game cartridges as of Sunday were Boxing Dolphin Enduro Dragster Tennis Freeway Kaboom! Pitfall! Starmaster Stampede and Barnstorming Oh Lordy! A flood of memories hit me like a Kaboom! bomb. I was instantly transported back to my sweaty teenage room of the early 1980s, with my Atari 2600 connected to a small black and white television that had a rabbit ear antenna. If by chance you were able to get a high score on one of the Activision games, and then take a picture with a polaroid, you could send it to Activision for a game patch. Each game had its own unique patches. For Freeway, the patch was from the 'Save the chicken foundation' and featured a chicken running in a blaze of glory For Kaboom!, the patch was from the Activision Bucket Brigade and looked like the one in the picture attached to this review. The most coveted one was for Pitfall! It depicts Pitfall Harry swinging over a pit and into a pile of treasure. I attached an image to this review. After about several months, I had most of the patches. My mom was so sweet that she ironed them to my backpack and like the nerd I was, I went to middle school in my OP socks and Sperry Topsiders, and my Activision Patched backpack. I remembered all of this when seeing the games at EntertainMart. It's a super cool place that will fill the void when Hastings left many years ago. A couple of notes EntertainMart will buy, sell, and trade your DVDs, CDs, Funko POPs! and more. EntertainMart has a lot of specials and deals. There are mystery bags of music and DVDs. Check them out, they are near the Dillards top entrance at the Boise Town Square Mall.

    (please know I am a hugeeeeeeee fan.....huge)…read more This place is so great! It's the perfect spot if you're a self proclaimed nerd like me! Lots of cool geeky pop culture stuff that is harder to find since Hastings closed (R.I.P Never forget) I'd been on the hunt for the perfect Hat/shirt combo and I found it here. I got this super comfortable Deadpool flat bill hat as well as a deadpool tshirt that says chimichanga on it! I swear every time I wear this to Comic Cons someone asks me where I found them! I guess I'm styling and profiling. Also, it's really cool that you can get a Pantera chain wallet because that's my fav hard rock band! The big downside is they do sell weed stuff that is illegal in the state of idaho. whenever I've taken a look at the weed merchandise I get scared the cameras are going to use photo recognition software to put me into the ADA county database and send squad carz out to search my home so better safe than sorry. Would be better if they didnt sell that kind of product to tempt dopers. I do like the adult sex store in the back though. Lots of fun devices and materials to spice up your sex life with your special someone; big fan of the various plugs and rings...NOT wedding rings if you catch my drift as well as the various lubricants and essential oils. It's kinda stressful to go into a sex store on it's own unless you're a fetishist but going here is easy because you can put your sexual enhancers into a spensers bag or if you're too nervous, maybe a GAP bag or something if you're a preppy. Overall, this store is my fav place so much that I allocate 45% of my discretionary income on spending it here!

    From Harry Potter to Hobbits, Re-pop is exactly what you'd expect of its name. It's a cool place to…read moresoak in pop culture and dabble in some nostalgia. I'm a huge sci-fi fan and love all things Star Trek and Star Wars. Seeing life-sized cutouts of Kirk and Spock definitely sets the mood. The captain's chair was roped off when I was there, so I didn't get a chance to sit in it...bummer. But it was still cool to browse and shop with the crew of the Starship Enterprise. As a lovely parting gift, my cousin bought me a Boise High Life T-shirt there. Next time I'm in Boise, I'll be back (although I don't remember seeing any Terminator stuff there but there very well might have been some!).

    Re Pop has to be one of the dopest stores downtown. They are located next door to the salon I work…read moreat. I first noticed Mike sweeping the front of the salon for us. I thought that was so kind! I was locking up shop when Mike formally introduced himself to me. It was nice to have him go out of his way to talk to me. We chatted and me noticed my Hello Kitty purse. Of course he told me they had Hello Kityu goodies in the store. Even though they weren't quite open yet, Mike invited me in to check out the store! What a neat venue! It was almost overwhelming trying to look at everything! They have so much to look from Harry Potter, Marvel, socks to stickers. I made my way to the Hello Kitty area. They have a sorts of Sanrio goodies. Crystal also showed me other Hello Kitty goodies that they had. She was so sweet! I appreciate her taking the time to show me other products they had! This store is legit the coolest in town. In addition to them being so dope, they also have the best people working there! If you're looking for a cool spot to buy pop culture products. Re Pop is your joint to hit up!
