Homewood Toy and Hobby, 2830 18th Street South, Birmingham, AL 35209…read moreWe have been going to Homewood Toy and Hobby for years, and it continues to be one of those special local stores that is a pleasure to visit. One thing we noticed right away is how convenient and accessible the store is. There is plenty of parking, and they have both a front and back entrance, along with a handicap ramp. That may sound like a small detail to some people, but for someone using a wheelchair or needing easier access, it makes a big difference. The aisles are also wide enough for a wheelchair, which is not always the case in small specialty stores. The service is prompt, friendly, and genuinely kind. The employees are wonderfully nice and helpful without making you feel rushed. My brother enjoyed looking around, taking his time, and selecting what he wanted to buy. That kind of patient, friendly atmosphere means a lot. The store has an amazing assortment of hobby items. They carry model railroading supplies, model airplanes, model cars, military miniatures, radio-controlled vehicles, helicopters, cars, and many other hobby and collectible items. It is the kind of store where you can go in for one thing and still enjoy walking around just to see everything they have. Homewood Toy and Hobby also has the feel of a place that has earned loyal repeat customers over the years. That says something good about both the store and the people who run it. We are thankful for a local hobby store like this and appreciate the kindness, accessibility, and great selection they offer. God bless! Mark and Tim Elders

The cashier did not know how to do returns. There was basically a bunch of expensive crap you could…read morefind at Walmart for 5 bucks. A lady came in saying that her 1 year old son did not know how to use a Nee-Doh squishy and that she had won it at an auction. I asked to the cashier if I could buy it and she very quickly said (in an angry tone) No YOU CANT HAVE IT! and then proceeded to stuff it under the counter, Horrible service.

This shop is amazing! Walking in to this shop was just a joy! There are so few shops anymore that…read moreactually have a good inventory of toys and action figures. I was blown away by their inventory and everything they had. From Star Wars, Marvel, DC, TMNT, GI Joe, Transformers, Horror Figures and so much more. Something else that I thought was so cool and spoke to my heart was all the toys from my childhood. The guys working here were very friendly and offered help and were there to help when needed. Unfortunately I was short on time so I wasn't able to spend as much time browsing as I wanted. I didn't even get to go through their comics, but they did have several long boxes and what looked liked a pretty nice comic collection. I wish I had found about them earlier so I could have spent more time there. I'm definitely looking forward to my next time in Birmingham so I can visit again. The store is so well stocked and the prices are great. I bought three figures and next time I'm definitely leaving room in my bag. Definitely check them out.

This is one of my favorite places in the Birmingham area, though I don't visit as often as I would…read morelike. It's nirvana for the nostalgic and middle-aged, and it's hard not to leave with *something* because there are a lot of great deals (and a lot of bank-breakers, too!). You'll leave with an armful of great stuff at a great price and the feeling that it will make perfect sense to drop $300 on a signed Kuiil action figure from "The Mandalorian," which I'll probably do someday. EDIT: I didn't realize I've reviewed it twice now!

I was here with some avid Target shoppers. This location was lacking to me. Not a lot of inventory…read moreor workers. I felt like I worked here as I was checking myself out. Self checkout is cool but sometimes you don't feel like doing it. I didn't didn't particular night. Maybe since this is the only Target in town , this contributed to the lackluster visit. I would come back but I was not impressed.

I've always loved Target as a chain for its quality and options compared to Walmart.

As a stay-at-home mom, my weekly Target run is one of the few chances I have to unwind--but lately, it's been a source of frustration instead. On multiple occasions, I've experienced terrible customer service from one individual in particular. She's consistently rude, rolling her eyes and speaking curtly to customers, even as she's sweet and almost flirtatious with her coworkers. It's disheartening and, honestly, ruins the experience. I'm determined to find out her name because she really needs to be held accountable for how she treats customers. When I do, I will notify Target on the corporate level, district level, etc. She really brings the quality of the store down. That said, not all is bad. There are some incredibly kind and helpful team members at this store, and I want to especially recognize the security guard at the entrance. He always greets everyone warmly and goes out of his way to make people feel welcome--someone give this man a raise!
