OMG! I have been building model cars, ships, planes etc since I was six. This place also carries miniature trains and slot car racing sets. I could go on and on. I am a hobby geek for life.
Great hobby shop all around. Great selection and customer service. Worth the drive for sure. Alex took care of a special order with ease. Ill definitely be going back.
At Pacific Coast Hobbies for the enthusiast you can find a wide variety of your favorite hobby whatever it may be and more. They have childrens Hobby and some toys theres complete slot cars and separate cars of your choice plastic model kits cars and airplanes rockets that shoot up in the sky remote control airplanes and very few Nitro RC they still sell the Nitro fuel but theyve discontinue the Nitro to go green because of people and the noise of the nitro cars or trucks. Now they have the electric and brushless Hobby and for you train lovers they have complete train products separate train tracks and Landscaping Ive been shopping at Pacific Coast hobby for a while now to get all my needs that I want so if youre just starting out this is the place that you want to go the employees there are great very helpful in the knowledge of the products that they sell like Kindle and Brian and a few other employees so P C H gets a 5***** on my experience with the hobby shop.
The guys are knowledgeable and friendly. I needed a model car kit and the directed me to their big collection of kits. I saw mostly American cars. There is a lot of star wars kits as well. The place is crammed with stuff to the ceiling so you are bound to find what you are looking for. Definitely recommend this place.
Its a good place to go buy GUNDAM..
Went in to purchase some decals, and they said that they had none in stock, and that since they are hard to get, they havent made much of an effort to try. I was also told that since no one was racing and being sponsored, they werent going to attempt to bring any in anytime soon. I found what I needed on Amazon instead.Had to add that this was the first time they had ever failed me. Usually we find what we need when we go.🤷🏻♀️
This place is a great hobbie shop. The staff are knowledgeable and knows how to get you to buy something. Lol
Absolutely love this place. Great RC selection and great staff members that are very much fellow hobbyists!
Great place. Great people very helpful.
Id give more stars but the environment seems a little ...off. Staff kept walking by my family and I and made the experience here a little weird. Good variety buy prices a bit too high!
Great store great staff have a wide selection of RC, models kits and trains.Recommend highly
A lot of selection of cars, planes helicopters, drones and many other hobby stuff. The staff is very helpful and knowledgeable and helpful host replacement parts to repair your stuff is in stock.
This is the Best Hobby shop around, Friendly knowledgeableStaff, wide variety of inventory,Expect to have fun 👍
The workers are very helpful but if its your first time an you have many questions Dont ask Mike he is VERY gd an has the knowledge he just doesnt have the patience any more for questions lol hes cool tho.
Well my name is Ruben and also they got some very good RC cars there for a very good price me person I recommend that RC place to get any parts for you RC and it good mechanic up there I got a rustler for very good cheap and then put maybe $1,000 into a dirty but erased pretty good the next trip
This is probably the only hobby shop around, but that doesnt stop them from making it a great and welcoming place. All the employees here are very helpful, all in all i love this place!
Has a large selection of hobby items. I like how they also have the RC cars displayed very nicely. Nice, tidy, and organized. Staff is also friendly.
Im just getting into rc. Picked up a nice rc from this place. Worst vibes ever. Just a sales store. They seemed to take my Money easy. But thats pretty much all they can do here at pacific coast hobbies. If youre going to get into rc. Buy your car online. And see if they have good YouTube videos on the model you chose. Gl and have fun. Dont buy from pacific Coast hobbies. You can get the same experience buying online.
Love this place. Picked up a Traxxas Slash 4x4 and an Axial SCX24 Crawler from here. Very knowledgeable and professional team working here at PCHobbies. This is Hobby Shop is the best one Ive personally been too. Happy customer I am.
Im going to be in the week in the store to pick up a slash ultimate but I heard they dont come with battery and a charger do they and if they dont how much am I looking at to buy a battery and charger from you guys ty
No-Way to get out the door without spending over two hundred dollars, but you enjoy every penny spend...
First time at this RC hobby shop, and the customer service is very friendly, super helpful, and lots of inventory in stock. Would highly recommend shopping there locally for all your RC needs over Amazon.
I just started going to Pacific Coast Hobbies but already Im very happy with there customer service. They have been very helpful.
Its my first time coming here and I think it has good for mainly anything that you need for your RC and the people who work here are friendly and helpful and they make sure that you leave the store satisfied.
Great people,they know what it takes to become a beginner and pro.All good models available,will be satisfied when you are out the front door.😎
I bought my 2 boys an RC here they LOOVE it. Great customer service too. 1 question do y’all offer payment plans or credit ?
Lots of varieties of things to buy I recommend
Been there but i wannah go back & see what i can get my 👐🏾 on!!!
Great people who are always ready to help you.
Good good comprehensive hobby shop
The staff were friendly and knowledgeable
My r/c family for years. Everyone here is friendly and will help you with whatever you need.
When i called asking if they offer a soldering service for my 1/10 rc car to solder the motor and esc? Brian said: yes!Went to them, Alex informed me that they cant do it today because they have a line of customers that are waiting!!! im a customer too!!(my rc and all parts wast purchased from them)He was not helpful at all, and asked me to leave it and come back tomorrow, he just want to help other customers who wants to purchase parts, which eventually theyll pay more than what i do as only for soldering and couple batteries, plugs and wires.So, it was a waste of time for me driving to the shop, waited outside, and bad experience.So disappointed...Will never visit again.
Lots of parts,, Lots of hobby rc cars, boats, planes etc to choose from. However Not very friendly worker. The security was nice.
I get all my parts and truck here but after awhile they were wired and then I bought a drone and it didnt work out of the box then I took it to them and they said no refunds but how am I supposed to know if it would work
Worst experience every righ at the Entrance the guy was so RUDE
This spot is cool. Everyone was great
Yall ever race RC Cars ... Its pretty dope..
Bought all my cars here...nice place and good people
I love them...
Love to review this place but I couldnt get in the door as they were only allowing 6 people in at a time.Ridiculous when you consider all the other stores are full of people.If your that worried about catching a virus you have NO BUSINESS even opening your store, pathetic... not true there are no consistent rules, Michaels for instance no line just a mask requirement, packed.Supermarkets no big deal, nail salons for another example.Its your business of course Im just saying that my business was lost. I went to another store of course where there were no restrictions.You do you but all Im saying is how much more business you could have.
Grandson likes the store as he collects cards
I’m giving them one star the reason is I had wanted to get an airplane first of all the selection of airplanes wasn’t great but it was like an impulse buy otherwise I would have just ordered one online to wich these days is the best way to buy any RC hobbie items so I picked out this airplane and it wasn’t a BNF or a RTF as I wanted to assemble it as this is part of the RC hobby I enjoy anyhow I asked the guys there if they have all the parts needed to build the plane and get it in the air first guy said he doesn’t really know much about flying models and passed me off to a guy who “knows everything about flying models” so he looked on the box at the list of parts needed to finish at this point he started pulling out servos said they would work well they were too big and didn’t fit I understand that when building a model you have to sometimes make things fit but I told the guy these aren’t what the box says and he replied oh these are pretty close then for the motor he grabs one with the same kv rating the box says and hands it to well this motor had the wrong mounting points and didn’t fit the planes motor mount it’s like they just pulled a bunch of parts just to make the sale they could have said oh we don’t have these parts cause it’s not like I could look at a variety of parts and pick for my self as all these parts are in a drawer or behind the counter so if I had picked out the wrong parts okay that would be on me but they picked out the stuff and said The stuff would work anyways some more knowledgeable staff would be nice just not people trying to schlep random parts off to people saying it will work I would have appreciated them telling me that didn’t have the right parts at that point I would have picked something else out yet another lesson to buy all my RC stuff online where I can pick the exact things I need for my builds brick and mortar stores just don’t have it anymore
This place has it all and they dont charge alot .people working could be useful if they wanted to ...
So far Ive gone twice, and the staff is very knowledgeable and helpful, and very pleasant people. They helped me with an old RC car I was trying to rebuild but I bought a new Traxxas stampede. I definitely recommend this place and I will be back in the future
Great service and very systematical regarding the pandemic, you will not get scared shopping around the store.
Excellent service 👍 got what I needed in and out
Good for models, rc cars and planes
Kendall is very knowledgeable and excellent customer service!!!
Where a grown man can fulfill there kid dreams
Guys flying around drones and demonstrating there products, honest people.
They are stocked with maxx light kits. Happy I bought the traxxxas cvd for the slash 20 cheaper then then the website 😃
My go to place for model kit stuff! If you live in the South Bay area, then this is your one-stop shop for all your hobby needs. They also carry some Gunpla if youre into that.
Love this place, each of the associates are knowledgeable, friendly and extremely helpful.
I loved the place I drivel 42 miles to go there
Only 6 people allowed in store at a time. They are being super careful with social distancing. Business is good too so expect to wait outside a few minutes.
Good store to shop
Fun place for kids and kid grown ups to buy toys
Pretty good place has everything that I was looking for and even more stuff like really cool stuff for my kids
Im a freaking nerd! I love this place. There is something here for everyone. The dude that helped me was nice: tall, thin, glasses and orange-ish hair.
Amazing store! I buy Gundam/Star Wars model kits and paint supplies, and everything is priced way lower than almost every other store around. Staff is really friendly and helpful too!
Thank you Mike! helped me get my Arrma typhon 3s that was IN STOCK compared to no other store in the OC area had a great selection of everything I needed and more got me on the track that same day! hobby people died sadly and PCH helped me get back into the hobby just as good!Great dealsGreat serviceGreat selection

A grown mans toy store
Here was my issue, and my review can be edited: I called in advance for specific items that werent there twenty minutes later when I arrived. Other that that, no issues, staff is helpful, great selection of products. Sorry for not giving five stars.
I must admit...at first I was seriously impressed by the first visit. Then disappointed because of down time for repairs of my model....BUT!!!,and this is the best part people...I was incredibly impressed by the staff at their commitment to regaining my trust again.I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THESE GUYS!!!!
Great quantity and selection of replacement parts for the majority of popular brands for RC vehicles. Staff was friendly and attentive. This store also offers repair and soldering services for fair prices. I was impressed.
I have been spending major cash $$$ there so it has to be the Best. So yeah it is the very best RC remote control cars planes trains tell them Brook sent you
Me and my kid Andrew love it everyone is really helpful
All I have to say I love this store ...just recently bought the 8s arma outcast
I was just here recently to look for a drone and the employees were very knowledgeable and helpful on helping me choose what to buy. They even know about upcoming products, and if they will have them or not ahead of time. Not only drones, this place has everything for any hobby imaginable. Trains, cars, boats, models, electronics. Collectibles. Prices are fair for a local place that can always have what you need on hand and not bother waiting for shipping.
The kid, who knew a tremendous amount more than me, about RC cars...was still easy on my wallet...and that means great customer service
Great place! Love this place! I took my RC car that was not working and they figured out what was wrong right away! Great service! They wont force expensive stuff on you. Only what is necessary. Very kind and friendly!
Amazing shop for all rc hobbies
Kool place to get your everything R.C. fix. Sometimes takes a little while to get your merchandise if they have to order them. Other than that its all good
I like r/c. Cars,planes,helis. This place has alot to chose from
Friendly service, not much parts/selection for FPV quads only downside.
Great bunch of guys that work here. Good selection. These guys are still the best!
I came for supplies for working on my Gundam models. As a lady hobbyist I was a bit nervous but the staff here was friendly and knowledgeable - they treated me well. While their Gundam model selection was a bit small, their paint, pens, and blades were well stocked. I will definitely be a repeat customer.
I bought a small car for my son lasted not even one month and they told me to call the manufacture
Great customer service. The folks there are friendly and knowledgeable. One of the few hobby shops left in the South Bay. RC cars and trucks dominate the store, with drones and helis next. I was able to find what I needed and will certainly be going back for more stuff.
Very well stocked and knowledgeable and friendly staff. Totally recommend this location
Great local hobby store. Good workers. Bad for my wallet.
I was told the day before to be there as soon as they open and they will work on it right away so I can weight there for the repair but another guy there didnt onor the promise so I went home and went back again to pick it up I lived kind far from there. But they did a good job on the repair
Great place very informative found everything I needed Kendell went above and beyond on helping us havent had that kind of service I dont know how long
Its the best hobby shop in California I recommend it staff or very helpful and friendly and lots of selection to chose from.
Guys here are super friendly and knowledgeable and their prices are great on their wide selection!
Best so far shop where I get some helpful ppl. Jessie helped me out with Emax drone. Im really to fly. Good looking
Great shop! If they dont have the part you need in stock, they will look it up and order it right there. I come here for all my rc hobby needs. Huge selection of stuff ranging from rockets, models, trains, drones, planes, and cars. Go here if you need anything hobby!
Awesome place! Even better staff. They are the place to go for your hobby needs
