"We live out of state and we're visiting family in Columbus. Took my kids and my nieces to Robbie's so we could look for Hot Wheels. Everyone loved it. So much to look around at, even if you're not buying. My son and I are the only ones who care about Hot Wheels, but everyone already wants to go back. Owner is super nice, as well. We'll definitely be back the next time we're in Columbus!"
"Robbies Hobbies is a great place to shop for all kinds of new and vintage toys, trains and other items. Rob tries hard to keep his stock fresh and has extremely reasonable prices. Rob is a nice person, who is willing to talk with customers, and, his staff is knowledgeable and friendly, too."
"Nice place, very helpful staff"
"Great little store and filled with hidden treasures for train lovers. Some of the product is a little shop-worn. We purchased something that had parts missing but the owner refunded us the next time we were in. Not many stores like this left. It's well worth the trip there."
"Great selection at any price point for virtually every hobby they carry! Knowledgeable staff on new and vintage hobby items, definitely worth the the trip!!!"
