Reviews of Hobbycraft Southampton

D. C.

Lovely calm atmosphere, massive variety of hobbies and crafts. Managed to get everything we needed and more. Kept the wife happy so well worth the trip!

J. R.

A crafters paradise! Always busy with people / families of all ages looking for whatever it is they need for their next project. There are usually some good offers in-store, which change regularly, tempting you to try new things or enabling you to stock up on your favourites and save some pennies 😊

B. H. t. s. a. i. t. U.

Hobby craft is a crafters heaven. The staff are supportive and helpful in store and all the staff ive met have a great general knowledge of various crafts. My only dislike is their hiked prices of items available elsewhere and that 98% of there yarns are polyester which is plastic. But i love the store they offer lots of different starting kits, beads and bits that are unique to their store and they are all high quality items but this does reflect a lot in their prices too.

A. P.

Superb customer care, staff are friendly and very helpful. Always have some great offers, so check the baskets on the way in and those end of shelf displays. Parking is plentiful and free.

L. W.

Went in to pick up my items I ordered through their click-and-collect service they have. Amazing staff, very efficient and swift. Shop very clean.

J. S.

Hobby and crafts shop selling a vast range of products .some stock levels seem a bit low. Otherwise a good shop. Free parking

D. R.

Plenty of parking and situated next to Haskins garden centre. Extensive range of crafting supplies - you can easily spend a couple of hours there! Not always as cheap as available online elsewhere but definitely worth a visit.

K. Y.

A great visit this time. I needed help finding specific products and the member of staff I approached was really helpful and friendly. The member of staff at the till point was also great. A good range of products- cake baking and decorating. I'd certainly recommend.

l. D.

Love looking around here it has everything you could possibly need for any types of crafting including cooking painting and sewing to mention a couple well worth a visit

E. B.

Given 3 stars because manual die & embossing machines & all products are being fazed out for the Cricut & all the tools necessary, not everybody can afford ££££! 😠

C. S.

Wide selection of craft and artists materials. Very large car park area for easy access.

G. L.

A great store to look around, and the staff are very friendly and helpful.

L. C.

Good shopping experience but quite a small store considering its proximity to a major centre of population.

A. S.

I love the place my bank manage doesn't 🤣🤣

C. C.

We attended a great clay class, lovely private room for classes. Free parking!

M. S.

This is not the place to go to if you "just want to have a look"; I can guarantee you will leave with stuff you did not know you needed 😉 Fabulous selection of craft and art supplies.

D. M.

Quality staff and are happy to help with any enquiries. Good range of products too.

L. L.

As a crafting enthusiast this has everything I need for my knitting and crochet

P. T.

Stock was somewhat different then what it said online, but stuff was helpful to find alternative.

J.

Good online service (in the next day) Only trouble had was when went to collect from the store no separate click n collect till n had to wait in a very long queue for the tills

J. B.

Everything is set out well.so you can find what you're looking for but even if you can't staff are friendly and helpful.

M. D.

Didn't buy anything, that's always a good thing lol

I. C.

Staff are helpful, bit pricey but good range of bits and bobs.

D. R.

Fab place for browsing through a very wide range of crafts and art resources. Always find what I need for the next project!

D. P.

Everything you wanted for your hobby painting modeling drawing etc under one roof a little expensive but not bad

D. H.

Well stocked and if they haven't got what you need we were directed to somewhere that could help us. Always useful if a shop is prepared to do that. Also plenty of space so felt covid safe.

S. G.

A good selection, though a little pricey

V. h.

Well stocked, friendly and helpful staff, good parking

S. F. (.

Good selection of crafts, and has aircon

R. s.

Selection of craft materials. Well laid out and helpful staff

j. c.

I love this place. Any hobby you have and you need bits for it, this place has it. It's such a nice relaxing place to visit and just wonder around. I love baking and decorating cakes, they have everything for that. I crochet and they have lots of different yarns and equipment. I also got a lot of my wedding stuff from here. It's great quality and a good price. Through lockdown I have been able to order and have delivered to me or click and collect.

P. S.

It's was good, although I didn't find what I wanted.

P. M.

I always find my craft items and other ideas.

N. H.

Lots of products expensive, cheeper nearer home not worth spending petrol

L. F.

Lovely bubbly knowledge staff and beautifully layed out store, so much choice of craft goodies.

M. C.

Great range of hobby materials and helpful staff

M. B.

Hobbycraft is unfortunately closed due to a Powercut after Storm Eunice. Sadly, this was not flagged up on Google...

C. D.

Nice store, pretty well supplied. The staff seemed nice. The store is has very narrowly spaced shelve units, and people could not keep at a distance because of this, so limiting to 19 people made little sense if the total volume and floor area of the unit are considered (this was the COVID related limit when we visited). The staff were very nice!

s.

Never seems to be well stocked. Even before covid. And doesn't cover all crafts

S. H.

Such a great range of so many different crafts. Absolutely one of those shops where you go in for one specific thing, and come out with a trolley full of new stuff 🤦🏽‍♀️

L. P.

Great selection of craft items and very helpful staff. Good for a visit and always worth having a look around as often some very good offers.

E. C.

Always worth a look around if you need craft bits, however, there is quite alot of rubbish sold, mostly from China, disappointing.

J. R.

Well organised for social distancing. Unfortunately there was quite a long queue but no fault of the store just volume of customers. Once inside, there is a planned route and screens at checkout. I found customer service to be very good, quick and efficient. As there were limited shoppers in the store, it was a pleasure! Some stock issues noticed but pretty good.

A. F.

Liked it here service fab if you're lost very helpful get a store card if you're going to be visiting alot with getting. Found a few bits I wanted but not all of it. Clearly signed in covid rules. No toilet but next door has cafe and loos if needed.

A. W.

Not many different fabrics and much more expensive than I had expected. Probably worth sticking to fabricland for sewing projects. But the wool selection was good.

W. M.

Large store but not the best hobbycraft i been in in terms of selection of product. Lots.of hobbies bit limited and basic range within each . I would have expected more specialist products. And as with all hobbycrafts can buy elsewhere cheaper

M. H. /. d. m.

Very good place to get all thing to make

M. “. I.

Always helpful, easy to find with lots of parking.

L. N.

Large store, quiet when I went so plenty of room to browse whilst giving other shoppers space. Good range of products

T. “.

Don't go here for primer spray cans. They are meant to do grey, white and black primer in spray form, but they never order them. Lol Otherwise, it's a tidy store, and the staff are helpful

G. M.

Good variety of products. Took me a while to find what I wanted. Couldn't find any staff on the shop floor. Only one lady at the till who was busy serving.

S. P.

I've been here loads of times, they've a great range of stuff and the shop always seems tidy. The staff are helpful, and it's Hobbycraft so the prices aren't bad for what you get! I'm sure I'll be back for more hobby stuff when I need it. Can get busy, and the car park can get very full at the weekend for example because there is Haskins Garden Centre next door.

S. C.

First visit, amazed at quality of stock. Also variety. Staff very helpful . For me 1st time crafter.

C. “. T.

It's got everything you need for crafting

B. H.

Hi wife and I went to Hobbycraft early staff very helpful and explained Loyalty scheme so she signed up to it👍

J. B.

All craft supplies you need. My kids love going there. Staff friendly. Decent car parking

S. S.

Ok, but expensive, nearly everything is cheeper on Amazon.

P. R.

Great place and advice, but always a little expensive

s. w.

Didn't have anything that I wanted!!

L. I.

Lots of lovely stuff and reasonable prices

L. E.

Wide range of resources for various hobbies such as art, knitting, sewing, decoupage and children's activities. Also have range of art and craft toys and lots of other miscellaneous items. Great store.

A. C.

This is such a great shop for anyone crafty, and even those looking for gifts for crafty people. It's a good size Hobbycraft and I'm yet to see something on the website that they don't stock here - although some items were out of stock on my last visit, so it's worth phoning ahead if you're travelling some distance to get here and looking for something specific. It's a very warm shop (temperature wise) with very friendly staff, and I love coming here and then going next door to Haskins for a cuppa and wander round the garden centre.

A. B.

Great place to go for all your hobby needs. Prices are very good, also worth joining the hobby craft club for discounts and more

S. I.

Everything is very neatly presented and easy to find. Stock is generally very good. Great place to get a huge range of crafting supplies, either for a new hobbiest or experienced crafter, Hobbycraft seems to have it all!

C. G.

Good selection of sewing patterns. Got a couple of easy to sew half price. Very generous cutting of fabric, great selection if fabric. Really comfortable COVID19, staff super helpful

M. L.

Great place with all your arts and crafts all under one roof. Also its wheelchair friendly with wide isles although some are a bit tighter but still fully accessible one way or another. Plenty of parking space including wheelchair parking. The staff are really friendly and helpful too

J. H.

Everything you need for all your arts & crafts with really helpful staff. We are in this shop all year round for all the home creations our little 5 year needs for school. This shop also has good gift ideas with great deals. The staff are brilliant and always happy to help.

C. W.

Excellent selection for you craft needs. Staff were very helpful and friendly

J. P.

Very swift click and collect process. I was very impressed with every aspect, on-line ordering, notification and collection. I wasn't kept waiting, which was very welcome as it was a very cold day. Thank you Hobbycraft.

D. R.

It's quite big but at the moment there seemed to be too many people shopping here. It's difficult, as by nature you want to move in different directions to shop and look. They are doing their best to ensure safety of staff and customers.

W. F. S.

Love this store, I am a regular visitor to buy yarn and other crafts supplies. The staff is really helpful. They do designated courses though I have never taken part they do seem popular. Also sewing machine course and surgery great.

C. Y.

Always has everything I need for my arts and crafts needs. Helpful staff and loyalty system worth signing up for if you're a frequent shopper

R. T.

Fantastic hobby and craft shop catering to pretty much anything you need from pens, paints and die cut machines. If you need it they sell it. Lovely and warm in there and the staff are friendly and on hand to help. Easily accessable parking that's free everything is fairly priced as far as hobby stuff goes. Would visit again if I need too

A. W.

Exactly what you'd like from a hobbycraft experience. Good car park, polite staff and a nice cafe next door.

P. L.

Awesome shop & friendly staff

D. K.

If you love all aspects from aged 2 to 102 this is the place to go. Staff are only to happy to help. Always cheerful n friendly. Above n beyond covid saftey 🙂👍

G. R.

Good prices, however they often stock lots of different types of the same item and lack other types. Eg. Might have 10 different styles and brands of poster paint and one type of glitter paint. Great for little bits for the kids and rainy days and also great for your professional crafts...just expect that they might not have an item or two

K.

Great place for all your crafts and at great prices. Throughout the year they do the seasonal things like for Easter and Christmas, and they have always got new things coming in but old things are always available. They have an online app aswell so you can order online if you can't get there and the staff are always friendly and helpful. Perfect.

M. T.

Very helpfull staff, a pleasant shopping experience.

D. H.

Pretty generic Hobbycraft store, not much to be said. Accessible parking and entrance with a great garden center and restraunt next door.

J. S.

The best place to buy jam and marmalade making equipment.

L. T.

Brilliant service arrives quickly when ordering online but I have had a few problems with damaged products as they're not packaged very well, and also spilt paint as they don't secure the lids and just chuck each bottle in individually

S. C.

Great for picking up bits and bobs for projects. Staff are always helpful, friendly and charming and products are competitively priced.

N. B.

Lots of stock. Is easy to find the things you need. Friendly and knowledgeable staff. Good prices

K. B.

I find I can buy mostly what I desire here craft wise although often to be found cheaper online it is convenient. Parking is available although can get busy especially on weekends as garden center next door. Staff are very knowledgeable and if they don't know will usually find out. You can also be a member of their club.

R. F.

You got to go here if your into arts and crafts. The kids love it here too. Really nice stuff, great quality gear at a reasonable price. Of course Haskins is right next door with a lovely tea room.

E. H.

Perfectly equipped with plenty of tools and materials! Not as organised, and doesn't have as much option as Bournemouth's Hobbycraft. But still a great shop. Good customer service with every visit.

J. A.

Amazing choice and helpful staff

D. S.

Clean and tidy store with very helpful staff. Couldn't find a Bride and Groom cake topper and although we were advised that they no longer sell them we were advised of 2 other places that we.could try. Very helpful indeed.

V. T.

For the crafting enthusiast this place is a must. Often the prices are higher then you would be able to find online, but it's better being able to actually see and touch what you're buying. The range is good, but it does a bit of everything, good for knitters, painters and cake makers particularly.

P. C.

Had exactly what I needed and the staff extremely helpful, polite and friendly. Distance from home and overall cost of item did not make it an economical visit, but needs must. Will only use Hobbycraft again if my local supplier cannot provide what I require.

T. J.

Helpful staff, I was able to find everything I wanted. The car parking area is great, free of charge.

S. G.

Not much Halloween stuff but lots of stuff for the children but quite expensive !

D. L.

My wife had bought 5 lots of wool, all with the same dye lot. A couple weeks later, and half-way through a complicated knitting pattern, our daughter noticed the second skein was a slightly different colour. We took it back and they refunded all 5 skeins, which was very good. I knocked off one star because I think they should be more careful when choosing their suppliers: the one in question was "The Women's Institute" which I would have thought would be trustworthy.

H. C.

A great place for all your craft needs. I'd been struggling trying to find some plain orange wool to crochet some flowers and it was the only place l could find it, great selection of wools and colours will be back for some more wool lol

V. T.

Staff always friendly and helpful, could do with more stock of jewelry making Supplies and less plastic boxes

J. W.

The store is very well organised with social distancing and sanitising products. Merchandise has been spread out more than usual so easier to get around right not.

N. H.

Nice place. Much more than a garden centre as they seem to be these days. High quality restaurant, excellent cakes and Costa Coffee to boot. Not the cheapest, but a good peace to browse for a variety of presents.

c. b.

Lots of parking, a good choice of food, & lovely cakes, milk shakes, no puddings for vegans though. They have a kids play ground & food choices for children. Toilets are nice & clean. You can sit outside with the plants that they have to sell, or inside which is very big, so always lots of seats, disabled friendly as all on one level. There shop is full of lots of interisting things, clothes, some speciality biscuits, drinks, & other items, great if you want to give an unusual prezzie. The garden furniture is beautiful & lots to choose from, with all the things you would need, to extend your house out side in style. But of course not cheap so be prepared to dig deep! Right next door is Hobby Craft, also lots to look at, but again not cheap, they do have offers on & so you can get a bargain. A lovely morning or afternoon out.

C. C.

Has a wide selection of crafting stuff. Have only been here twice and neither time did they have what I was looking for.

C. W.

I hate this shop sooooooo much! I spend a bloody fortune here. There is so much to purchase and get ideas for. The amount of arguments with my husband about how much I have spent is loads. The hobbies you can take up, wedding ideas, wedding favours, wool, card making, picture framing, painting, models, kids crafts the list goes on. Definitely, if your bored with the kids over the holidays, definitely bring them here to purchase crafts to entertain them. Just bring a tonne of dosh as you cannot leave there without buying something.

s. b.

I've only just discovered Hobbycraft and it's amazing. So much under one roof, always have everything I'm looking for and if not the friendly and helpful staff will take the time to look for you. Very good quality products.

F. O.

Good choice of craft products. However, some items can be a little expensive when compared to other outlets. Hobbycraft do have taster sessions, but it might also be a good idea to have examples of different products made up. I have often bought products that I would not normally consider, when I have seen them made.

L. C.

My favourite place, it's my happy place. Staff are always really friendly and happy to help with anything you need

V. G.

It was really busy. Packed full of fun things to do at reasonable prices. Staff friendly n helpful, knew exactly which way to point me in to find what I was looking for.

k. n.

Good range of craft supplies, Halloween and Christmas now set out and available,

J. A. C.

True bikers cafe, great location in central Hampshire for all points of the compass! Good food at a reasonable price & just a good meeting place - needs supporting to stay afloat - so check-'em out bikers!

D. P.

Great shop for all things 'hobby' excellent choice of items at reasonable prices.

M. D.

What you can't buy here doesn't exist

S. S.

Always love going here - could spend ages looking at all the nick knacks! Great variety of things to choose from and quality is good. You can also have a loyalty card for here.

m. s.

We found just what we wanted at a reasonable price. It wasn't too crowded and could walk around safely

A. L.

Love, love, love this place I could have spent lots of time there my friend had to pull me out. It was easy to find what I was looking for but trying to get the beads out was annoying. They are in a small place without scoops and it didn't do my ocd good seeing kids mix the up lol. I love that you can fill the tubes up yourself and I could have spent a fortune on them.

S. B.

Good crafty place to visit full of things to buy to make almost anything from scratch.

A. C.

Good selection of arts and crafts supplies and also some handy items like helium canisters for filling balloons. Bit on the pricey side, places like the Range are much cheaper for basic things like coloured card, but you might find items here which you can't get elsewhere.

A. L.

Ideal place for enthusiastic crafters

C. M.

Really helpful staff. So nice to have some where to go for all your crafting needs. Really reasonably price, considering they have alot of staff to pay, and overheads. Its so nice to have a large store to walk around, especially as soo many craft shops have closed down now due to economic climate. I always enjoy shopping in the store, then going for a cup of tea in Haskins restaurant next door....

I. T.

Lovely shop and friendly staff, can always find what I'm looking for!

N. G.

Pretty much everything you need when it comes to crafts 🎉 would give it 5 stars if it didn't have some damaged products on sale or at least reduce those ones. I needed a refund on something and they sorted it no problem and very friendly in there.

E. J.

Great place for crafty bit and pieces. Never have to wait long in queue, friendly staff

M. P.

Good ranges of items, can be expensive so compare first, Staff aren't very helpful and not enough staff at all especially at Xmas when it gets very very busy!.free parking!!! easy to get to!!! coffee shop n garden centre next door.

K. C.

Lots of wools for my wife and I like looking through the modelling stuff. Staff are very helpful and they're controlling numbers so you can feel safe

C. B. (. D.

Wonderful shop for all things crafty - I just wish they had a couple of chairs so that those of us with chronic pain could browse for longer (and spend more!) I had to cut my trip short due to pain but a seat would have made all the difference.

S. M.

Huge place catering for all sorts of arts and crafts. Lovely to browse for inspiration, many affordable options as well as top brands. Garden centre next door with cafe, loos and wheelchairs.

B.

Has pretty much everything you need under one roof. However some items arent grouped together well and instead just spaced out around the store so comparing prices can be quite tricky.

b. h.

Find prices on the high side, but if you can't be bothered trails round..

S. D.

Every hobby catered for. Christmas stock brilliant for all crafts from home made decorations to Christmas cards and gifts. Staff always very helpful and polite

M. W.

Made a special trip to get some 7“ Square blank cards. Unfortunately when I had got home and open up the packaging, every single one of the 25 in the pack have very obvious creases on one side . I have had to use one as it was needed today and I'm working all day tomorrow and Saturday so can't get back to the shop to sort it. Disappointed as I've never had this problem before

L. B.

Staff are helpful.i am a carer so pushing a wheelchair you cannot carry items as well staff are always willing to help and carry items to checkout and there is a good range of craft and things to do for all ages there is also has kindly next door good range of plants.and you have the cafe as well.got some nice statues for garden and Aminals too and there is a spa shop there and a hand car wash

A. S.

Loads of products, generally good value and well stocked but something's can be found cheaper online.

S. M.

Everything any crafter could possibly need

D. H.

Great store, clean and friendly staff

G. S.

Large store, well laid out. Plenty of choice within, cover a wide range of hobbies. Helpful and pleasant staff, can be a little tight if you go in with a wheelchair or double buggy.

L. G.

I just Love this shop. They have such a vast choice of crafts. Every time I go I spends hours just looking at everything. Only down side is it's an hrs drive away. Need one closer to home.

J. D.

Love, love, hobby craft. Super friendly staff in this particular store aswell

J. M.

Met Stuart today. What an absolute credit this young man is to your store! From someone who wants to embark on the art of quilt making, what this man doesn't know isn't worth knowing. So helpful and nothing being too much trouble. Staff to be proud of.

G. F.

Great showroom. Everything you could possibly need for your arts and crafts. Plenty of free parking. There is Haskins next door which is an excellent garden centre with a good restaurant.

B. B.

Like most hobby crafts the stock. In store is getting less and less. We didn't really find anything practical for what we wanted or any wool practical for us. Very disappointing

J. A.

Lovely store and great friendly staff, but shelves were really sparce of stock, hence just 3 stars.

B. C.

Good social distancing, only 55 in store at time, I didn't have to queue but they have markings on ground

S. B.

If you're a crafter then this is the place to go! Has pretty much everything you need but some things are maybe a bit more expensive. Definitely worth a visit though. Also has a lovely garden centre next door.

S. A.

Always a joy! Hobby Craft has a pretty comprehensive stock for most crafts for adults and children with a great selection of choices. It has an excellent art range and seasonal craft stock as well as all year rounders. Christmas and Easter are particularly well catered for as well as sewing, card making, journalling, scrapbooking, fimo clay etc. Jewellery making is my favorite craft and many tools and good wire is available but I can't recommend their beads for making items you'd want to sell. They are more suited to teens and children. The florist and clay sections are a bit sparse but for sewing, art, yarn, paper crafts and children's activities, you can't go wrong.

r.

I popped down to hobby craft to see what Christmas decorations I could buy so you can make with little ones at home, I came away with alot of items 👍😁, then we went next door to haskins and they had all of their decorations up it looks lovely and festive.

M. A.

Great for anything craft related. It's got everything you need, you could spend a lot of time and money in there. I baught Fimo clay recently, they have lots if colour options (including nightglow) and children have so much fun making and baking stuff.

C. a. C.

Sells literally everything needed for any craft! Great prices and friendly staff. They hold free workshops monthly. Large car park

H. G.

Friendly helpful staff and everything you can think of for your crafting hobbies

L. P.

Hobbycraft is the place to go if you are looking for everything to do with craft. It is pricey though, even the sale stuff. Its great for a wide range of craft types. Well worth a trip if you've never been.

L. L.

I have to say that I was pleasantly surprised after visiting here today, as a card maker I used to find this place quite expensive but popped in I noticed much more choice and great value for money, very affordable so will definitely return to stock up on materials really soon

j. k.

Love shopping at hobby raft, there is a full range of items for the novice to the professional art and craft person,staff are very friendly and professional always on hand to help out and offer advice when needed, prices are really good and there a tea room next door which is also very nice

G. R.

Great shop, lots of stock, has a lot of the same things and not much variation. E.g has lots and lots of 'felt paper's but no plastic paper or vynl paper. Has lots of fimo but no sculpey. Has LOTS of cross stitch but no wire craft circles. You might not get what you need but it's worth a look.

A. J.

Good variety of options.. for kids and adults. Things are of good quality but I feel it's a bit on the expensive side. Would recommend this place

T. M. R.

A huge selection of craft materials. I always thought it was quite expensive,but I was in need of some fabric paint and the selection was good and at a great price. If your in need of anything crafty this is a great place to go.

J. J.

I really like this place, the shelves are packed with every craft bits you can think of, all displayed really well. The staff are friendly and knowledgeable and are always around to help.

A. M.

Great for all manor of craft needs, shame that there is no restrooms or coffee, tea shop. Not always good when you have small children and have to dash into Haskins usually next door. Alison

A. “. T.

They had everything I needed for my project for a decent price. The only annoying thing is getting there via public transport is very complicated and requires a long walk still as its so far from the city center.

A. B.

Very helpful staff. A stock of products I didn't know I needed! Great shop, reasonably priced.

S. l.

Love this shop.. great selection of goodies and all spaced out nicely and easy to find. Staff are always friendly 😁

S. G.

This isn't a huge shop but staff were very helpful and there were plenty of reasonably priced goodies to temp you.Bonus was the lovely garden centre next door which had a cafe and excellent disabled loos too

p. b. C.

Great place but, like any store this size, it follows trends so one week you may find what you want and next week it's gone to make space for the craft du jour.

J. P.

Great staff, really helpful. Lots and lots of items to get you through those rainy boring days. Great ideas for kids and adults too!

L.

A well presented store with everything you need from paint to cake decoration. Staff are friendly and very welcoming. Fsasat at the checkout.

J. D.

Great shop with friendly and helpful staff. Sells pretty much anything crafty you could possibly need. Also a great selection of baking materials!

A. W.

Large shop. For someone who likes crafts and other things this was like walking into a sweeties shop. Row upon row of ideas to keep everyone entertained. You cannot cover it one session. Must go back!

J. C.

So much stuff all under one roof. Spent quite awhile here looking at all on offer. Got lots of craft stuff to make for Christmas presents plus the Staff are really helpful.

B. S.

Has everything you need, good quality materials a bit privy thou but if you get a loyalty card one sector of the store is always on offer for you.

W.

Great place for small art things for new hobbies during lockdown 👀

J. O.

Great place where to buy everything for a craft. Hoped it is more similar to Range but it is not. Would prefer Range for gift/small home accessory shopping and Hobbycraft for craft bits.

J. H.

Generally a good selection of items, I do get stuff in the scale model aisle for longer than I should. Really friendly staff.

A. C.

Really great selection of crafts for the whole family

B. B.

This store used to have an excellent selection of cross stitch kits but the choice has shrunk dramatically and what there is, is not displayed well.

C. M.

Prices and items nice for many of the products, but I have to say that if I buy online everything is so much cheaper. But if you want to effectively see what you buy, here's a great place for crafting!

C. T.

Love this shop....always spend too much ! LOL

E. B.

All you could ever need for your crafting project! Reorganising of the store does mean that you're often in there a lot longer than you intend to be, and spend a lot more than you intend to spend!

M. C.

Well laid out, clearly labelled, and clean. Lots of stock, few empty spaces, lots of choices!!

T. D.

Great place to visit for inspiration. Wide range of crafts supplies. Fabulous place to get creative ideas and with garden centre right next door, it makes a an good outing.

N. D.

Very good craft items nice shop

D. H.

Good store, plenty of choice no.matter what your hobby, paints, arts and craft supplies, Airfix/Revell/Tamiya kits etc etc. Staff are friendly, store is well laid out soon things are easy to find.

A. C.

Apart from having to venture into an over crowded city, all is good with hobby craft, good parking, great selection of craft materials, ilse wide enough, good temperature control, bright lighting, relaxed atmosphere, staff friendly, visit and wonder as to all the things you could make

C. J.

Found everything I wanted and more including the perfect gift for my Dad's 70th and even though it was busy the young lady in checkouts was friendly and struck up a mini conversation. I almost didn't want to leave 😁

J. B.

Brilliant place to visit when you want to get crafty.

P. H.

This is a huge craft shop with just about everything the hobbyist might need. Plenty of room to browse, but it gets pretty busy at weekends!

C.

Great shop for all sorts of craft needs

N. C.

Great place for the aged to go and potter about. Tea room next door too.

L. L.

I bought a zip. They had what I wanted at a reasonable price. The queuing system for the tills could be more obvious

C. a. H.

All special offers easily accessible near tills at front of the store. Only downside was the huge queue but it was 3/4 weeks before christmas.

J. C.

Good selection of craft activities for children at reasonable prices

T. W.

Not much stock and what they have got is expensive!

E. L. W.

It's a very good place to go if you wanna make stuff at home. You can book party's there so you can have a craft party if your kid or your self wants to have one

S. Y.

Clean spacious shop for craft supplies. Caters for a range of hobbyists but mainly kids crafts art supplies wool (knitting/crochet) and papercraft. Has a tiny framing service.

R. Z.

Such a lovely shop. It has such variety of items related to almost all hobbies I could think of..

One stop store for the hobby people. My partner loves to look around and purchase various items. When I get bored we end up in the cafe / restaurant in Haskins

Bought some much needed double sided tape to help with children's crafts for our Funday Sunday at Church every month.

D. B.

I love it hear but could do with molides scooter there hard to get round if u have limited walking

L. H.

Great click & collect service although some restrictions on variety of card craft.

S. R.

Bit of a grubby experience, feels like a warehouse. Not the nicest hobby craft, feels like they couldn't be bothered decorating. Restricted range as well

J. M.

Always a great place to take the kids to find some sort of craft activity at a reasonable price.

R.

Has a lot Hobbycraft products to browse through and covers a lot of interests and hobbies. If only it were a bit bigger but I’d still recommend a visit if you’re local

R. M.

Even though there seems to be a lot of stuff here, they often don't have things I'm looking for. Quality of jewellery parts is usually very poor. It's also usually very expensive here.

J. S.

Good shop lady was very helpful found what we wanted

Always seems to have what we need. Only negative is stock is put everywhere meaning it can be tight for buggy (maybe even wheelchair) access to some sections of the shop.

A. J.

Love it. Great range of products and prices are reasonable. Staff are pretty helpful too.

R. B.

Good little shop but shelves are a bit mixed up went to buy something but turns out different price to what I thought on several products. More separation would help
