Hawker Hobbies

"I was that one kid named Jackson you met and I just want to say the staff is so nice and the battle of the bulge set I got will be so fun to build. It was super cool and I even got some history knowledge out of it. I will go back here again."

"Entering this store is like stepping into an adventure. My 10-year-old son absolutely loves it here. Although I don't know much about trains and engineering, I'm learning more every time we visit. The staff make this store incredibly welcoming—they're not just there to take our money. They're patient and make our visits truly enjoyable. Whenever I tell my son, "Today we're going to your favorite place," he immediately exclaims, "Let's go to my friends at Hawker Hobbies!" This store is more than just a place with wonderful items; it's a warm and friendly community where all the customers know each other and interact in a pleasant and respectful manner."

"I recently had the pleasure of visiting Hawker Hobby, and I can't express how impressed I am with the service and expertise provided by the owner Jeremy. From the moment I walked in, I felt welcomed and valued as a customer. First and foremost, Jeremy took the time to personally guide me through various model building techniques. His knowledge and passion for the hobby were evident as he shared insights and even showcased examples of his own builds displayed in the shop. It's clear that Hawker Hobby isn't just a store but a hub for hobbyist to learn, share, and grow their skills. What sets Hawker Hobby apart is their commitment to customer satisfaction. Unlike online purchases where you're often left to figure things out on your own, Jeremy stands behind his products and offers invaluable support every step of the way. There's something special about visiting a brick and mortar hobby shop. Beyond the convenience of browsing products in person, it fosters a sense of community and camaraderie among fellow hobbyists. It's a place where you can connect with like-minded individuals, exchange ideas, and even collaborate on projects. In today's digital age, the importance of establishments like Hawker Hobby cannot be overstated. They provide not only quality products but also invaluable expertise and personalized service that simply can't be replicated online. Supporting local businesses like this one is essential for preserving the essence of hobby culture and ensuring its continuation for generations to come. Although this was my first visit, my experience at Hawker Hobby was nothing short of exceptional. The owner's dedication, knowledge, and genuine passion for the hobby make it a must-visit destination for enthusiasts of all levels. I wholeheartedly recommend Hawker Hobby to anyone looking for a top-notch experience and look forward to my (many) next visit(s)! After all, I will be needing to stock up on some model building equipment after a long hiatus from the hobby!"

"Had a very pleasant experience both times I have been here. Jeremy is clearly incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about his business and products. It’s wonderful to have this local business so close by and not have to wait for overpriced products to ship from online retailers. Looking forward to visiting again!"
