I haven’t been in town near stone mountain for over 20 years. And I haven’t seen a hobby shop like this one probably in just as long of a time. I saw the word hobby shop from the street and told my girl, «sorry, we’re going there. If that’s a real hobby shop I’ll be stunned. Because hobby lobby is not. That is arts and crafts.» But u digress. When I went inside I was pleasantly surprised to find a true hobby shop and was greeted with a friendly face and a smile. The lady that was there was very helpful. I could just walk around in there reminiscing on models I used to build. Definitely shop here if you want friendly people. I will be coming back next time I come up and I’ll also be checking out that website. I really want that microbus

Sent a first(and last) time paying customer packing. When I drove an hour round trip on $ 5 worth of gas and passed two Hobby Lobbys who had what I needed for half the price, I was looking for a new business relationship. When they sent me away empty handed because they wouldn’t let me make a $ 9 purchase on my credit/debit card… I’m still looking for a new relationship, but elsewhere. I can even understand having a preferred minimum. But there are myriad better ways to handle it. Like maybe suggesting it for next time, or suggesting a complementary purchase — not just grab the item off the counter and send the customer to the competitor. «Fees are killin’ us». Well, scorned potential customer vitriol is no picnic.

Very helpful. Ordered a part for nitro car and they called me when it arrived. Store has custom paints and cool displays of ideas. The location is great for the loganville crew.

This place is amazing, they just moved from snellville to Grayson almost 10 miles away from their old spot into such a better place to be. Once you go in you are so overwhelmed with so much cool stuff they have, cars, boats(electric & nitro powered) planes, dye cast models even the old wooden planes you can build and also the styrofoam planes I use to play with when I was a little kid. You should definitely visit this place to pick up a new or better hobby no kidding I’ve been dealing with this sweet lady for years buying parts for my electric car or truck and always has reasonable prices, and if you don’t meet the dog princess you for sure did not complete the experience at B&B Hobby Shop.

What a great shop. They have a little bit of everything for hobbyists. Their selection of Plastic Model Kits is outstanding. The have older harder to find kits, newer kits and a nice selection of Aircraft, Cars and Trucks as well as Military Vehicles in all scales. The next thing I loved was the selection of acrylic and enamel model paints brushes and building supplies. The folks in the store are helpful and knowledgeable and the environment clean and spacious in a lot with plenty of parking in a safe environment. The prices are outstanding and honestly on the low side of any hobby shops I visited in the past. I only purchase Model kits but the store has many other products for interests such as R/C and Scales Trains. I highly recommend this shop as it brings me back to an era when hobby shops we loaded with options rather than the static feel of the chain stores…

Pros: average selection of rc airplane equipment. Cons: –extremely rude store owner. On one occassion she insulted me while I was making a $ 170 purchase! Unacceptable. –unknowledgable staff –inventory a bit dated –staff constantly watching over you like you are going to steal something Bottomline: I live 10 min from this store. However, due to the rudeness of the owner, I deliberately drive 40 min away to hobbytown usa for my rc needs. Stay far away!!!

Great store. First went as a kid and was pleased to see it’s still there. Good selection of woodland scenics products and ho scale accessories. Limited n scale selection, but that is too be expected due to the popularity of the larger scales. Friendly staff. Glad to see they are still around and I wish them the best. Check them out.

This is a pretty intense experience. If you’ve never been in a hobby shop, you might imagine it to be a wondrous place with toy trains running cheerfully throughout the store and model planes patrolling overhead and what have you. This place is not exactly like that. Honestly, it’s a little dingy. There’s some severely sun-damaged items on the shelves, that have clearly been there a while. That being said, they have pretty much everything you’d ever need for a remote controlled car or airplane, if you’re into the big gas-powered deals, which I’m not. They also sell CB radio equipment and those little airplanes made out of beer cans, if either of those are your thing. I mainly swung through there because they’re one of a handful of places on this end of town that carry Tamiya model paints, and I was getting a little low. They had a remarkably impressive selection of paints, brushes, and related gadgets, which makes sense, I guess, given that they had several long aisles full of model cars, planes, tanks and such. Their website touts down-home friendly service, although when I was there, there seemed to be exactly one employee hanging out, a fairly indifferent teenaged boy who asked me exactly once if I needed any help, and then kind of obviously kept an eye on me as I wandered around the store, as if I was going to pocket something.(Then again, given that a single bottle of paint runs between 3 and 5 bucks, I was probably better off filching a few.) Given that I was there for exactly one thing, model paint, it probably wasn’t really worth the drive — if there was a decent Hobbytown USA or similar within 20 minutes of Decatur, I’d be there instead(assuming they sold Tamiya or Games Workshop paints, that is). Four stars for selection. Dock a star if you live any further west than East Lake.
