When I called to get a can of spray paint (Retributor Armor) Adam picked up the phone, very friendly and earnestly set aside a can for me that I was able to pick up.When I arrived in store, Adam was there and was very welcoming to me and several friends who were new to the Warhammer hobby, told us about the painting workshops and offered to explain the latest edition of the rules.Excellent selection of both Age of Sigmar and Warhammer 40k models, rule books, novels, paints, tools, and economical use of space to fit 3 large tables (in addition to fantastically painted terrain pieces)It should be irrelevant, but in a time when hobby stores can have an uncertain attitude towards women and newbie gamers, this place was very diverse and relaxed with a great and welcoming atmosphere. Cant wait to be back for the painting classes!
Love the store, clean place, wonderful atmosphere. Adam is super friendly and extremely helpful with helping find something you need or getting something they dont have. Love coming into the store.
Friendly store owner who is clearly passionate about his work. Very happy to introduce people to the game and direct them to the resources they need.
The guy working was friendly and there were a couple of guys playing AOS. 10/10 great environment. Id go regularly if it were my local store
Great owner. My g/f and I felt very welcoming. It seems the community are also friendly. We are excited to get into the hobby and play some games at the store
Lots of models on the shelf. Every time Ive been there, Ive seen people playing
This is my new favorite store to get anything GW related. Great selection, but honestly the service is everything. If you are new to 40K or AoS, you need to come to this store.
Really good selection and the service was very helpful! Great place especially for beginners!
This store is really great, Adam is the best, very Friendly and very knowledgeable. Awesome store.
Im new to the hobby and Adam the manager has been extremely helpful. Hes never tried to push me to buy anything and shows real excitement and knowledge when answering any of my multitufe of questions. The patrons that Ive enteracted with while shopping, watching games or just been in to paint and learn have also been very friendly and helpful. Much more engaged than anything you experience these days. It has been quite fun learning about the hobby and spending time just hanging out. Ive felt my hard earned money spent there has been well worth the level of service i get. I look forward to spending more time learning this hobby and how to paint better from Adam and this great store.
I love going here and Adam is extremely helpful, knowledgeable, and welcoming to new players. Glad this is my local Warhammer store.
Even though there is a pandemic going on, I was still treated to extremely friendly service, from a safe social distance! The presence of cleaning products up front was comforting, as you could tell the store is keeping a clean environment. Although they are only serving a single customer at a time, I was still engaged in friendly conversation, and felt even better about my army scheme after being encouraged! We all miss being able to hang out and actually wargame with each other, but even this level of personal interaction is why Ill go out of my way to grab my supplies from here, and not online. Plus you cant beat that same day pick up :D
Great location, Adam always takes great care of me and my son.
Adam is fantastic, always amazingly friendly, super helpful, and excited about the hobby project anyone has got going on!
Adam is AWESOME! I brought my 3 boys in the store today (they had asked about Warhammer a few weeks ago). Even though the store was getting busy, Adam walked them through what Warhammer was and then went way above and beyond duty and actually showed them how to play by playing a couple of rounds with them. For the 1st time in 3 years my 7th grader knows what he wants for Christmas. Sorry I couldnt purchase tonight from them since Christmas is close and my kids were standing right there 😀
Whoever rated this less than 5 stars needs to have a meeting with Khorne and Slaanesh!!
This place is amazing, the moment i stepped in I felt welcomed and wanted, and it constantly felt that way. Adam is phenomenal and helped me throughout on restarting my growth of this awesome hobby.
Great store. Adam is super helpful and friendly, even to folks like myself who cant decide what they want.
Adam is amazing. Hes super helpful and always had recommendations. He knows exactly how to help a person, if youve never played anything before he has a dozen ideas based on what you like to do. Im pretty sure he had all of the merchandise gw carries memorized to tell you everything you could want to know before diving in, even including some games with already made models.
Adam is great. He helps any beginer learn and does a great job handling the store during covid 19
Amazing store! The manager(owner?) Adam was extremely helpful and inviting. He answered a ton of questions and offered some great suggestions about Kill Team and 40k. Im from out of town and stopped in to check out the store and I know I will definitely be back any time Im back in the Chicago area.
Manager Adam was very nice and welcoming, and I didnt feel like he was giving me too hard of a sales pitch
The absolute best. Stop by and support our man Adam and this awesome hobby.
Surprisingly large selection of miniatures! Adam very helpful and enthusiastic. Great help if youre new to Warhammer! Lots of friendly banter if youre an old pro!
Amazing customer service, very knowledgeable and welcoming.
I was in town for business and stopped in. Adam greeted me right away and we began talking about the game. There were multiple games going on and people painting their miniatures while I was there. Great people and great atmosphere. Highly recommend.
Awesome Store. The manager Adam is fantastic and reminds me of how the stores were when I was younger. I drive from the city just to go to this store
Adam the manager there is both exceptionally friendly and well versed and makes the whole place feel like a second home to regulars and new people alike!
Amazing store, I dont go to play often, but I order everything from adam, great guy, will be honest with you, and doesnt push you to buy. Hes started a great community. Will always be a customer. A friend and I wanted to play but there was not table space, but he asked if some guys could give us a small square to play in. Like I said great guy, very good store.
I happened to be near this shop on travel. I stopped-in, and I am extremely pleased that I did. Staffer Adam represents the peak of knowledge, passion, and helpfulness in this industry. I was just as impressed with the quality of conversation as I was with the quality of service at this location. I highly recommend this store.
Great store, the manager knows what hes doing, doesnt push you too hard to buy stuff (he still has to make his money somehow) and most importantly he is very good at helping you pick out just the right models that you want. The place and staff is good enough that its got me back into warhammer, which I thought Id never do again because of the toxic environment that other stores Ive been in had.
The manger is super friendly, he will go out of his way to make you feel like you understand the various GW products and offer advice if you are new to the hobby.
Helpful staff friendly regulars. The location is not a battle bunker so smaller than the one which used to be on Butterfield years ago but theres tables and people willing to show you whats what. Its a nice location too downtown so you can access good eats too if there for a while.
Wow! Great store! Adam is beyond helpful and willing to taking the time to explain the different games, painting techniques, and store events! Great customer service!
Friendly staff and fun games. If you are thinking of trying it out they have days to teach you how to play the games, make the models, and paint them. All around awesome.
Adam was super nice. He showed my 8 & 10 year olds how to play blood bowl. He walked them through all of the 40k armies, quite excitedly, explained Everything thoroughly, and really got them excited about the hobby. Everyone in the store was really nice, let the kids watch them paint, model, play, and it was a great experience for little people!
A great store with great people. I figured I would stop by a games workshop while i was in the area and I am glad I did. Adam was knowledgable about the hobby and went above and beyond to ensure i was satisfied.
Good, polite service.
Adam is amazing. Makes me and my daughter feel welcome when we come to play. Doesnt mind our making our own rules or answering my endless questions as I am just starting in Warhammer.
Manager is super friendly and passionate about the game!
Visited there today, just to look around. Had a great experience with one of the employees, Adam. He was super helpful and even showed me how to paint some mini figures! Definitely would visit again!
Adam is a great, super helpful guy; Enthusiastic about the hobby and always willing to help out with the rules or advice on your armies.
The space is a little small and they dont have every set on hand (though Im sure they can order it for you), but the staff is great and they seemed to have plenty of people and events to play whatever you wanted. Plenty of ideas for lists and paint jobs
I mean Adam is a pretty cool dude I guess he totally knows what he is doing an can be a bit loud but thats ok because people like that high energy stuff. Oh yeah store is quite cute and small though it is kept emaculate by its proud manager Adam. Good terrain and good people. Ok but seriously its a great store stop by anytime Adam and the rest of the staff are friendly and always willing to help and show off this great hobby! Oh and they have lots of inventory! Awesome! Awesome! Clean and awesome! Good people!
Awesome store and Adam is so friendly and helpful especially since I had no knowledge or experience with Warhammer or similar games when I walked in. Super inviting and fun!
Best place around for age if sigmar and 40k. Great community.
Me and my friends used to love to play the game but we started calling greedy Workshop because it kept changing everything on it so much. That we started getting tired of having to keep paying for upgrades to the network of pieces
Extremely friendly and knowledgeable staff.
Adam is always friendly and super helpful
Great place with Adam the man in charge, awesome service and a great place. Gets crowded when packed, but you couldnt ask for a better group of people to hang out with for an hour or two.
Great place friendly people, love it! My bf abd I will definitely be back!
Extremely pleasant. You can paint your miniature there!
Received a warm welcome, benefitted from some good advice on how to get started, left with some good stuff to get our armies going. Thanks, Adam.
A Nice place, with a great staff
Friendly service and a good space for gw gaming. More space would be amazing though.
Very helpful employees and a good selection of Games Workshop miniatures.
Staff was incredibly helpful and welcoming. Inspired me to begin a new hobby.
The store manager, is a great guy. Always helpful and full off good information and tips.
Incredibly helpful and friendly staff!
Excellent service!
Great store. Always helpful and glad to see you.
I started warhammer back in 2008 and spent a lot of money on the hobby. I never looked back it is a lot of fun.
Great store, friendly staff, but a bit on the small side.
Great service. Manager is fantastic

Adam is friendly and welcoming
Cool little spot.
There really is no excuse for not answering the phone at 2:30 pm on a Monday... Says quite a bit about the management and staff.
Adam is the greatest!
