I have read the reviews before stopping by my first time. A lot of people have said that Matthew is the best, and I was really excited to see he was there my first time. He is very passionate about his job and the content of Games Workshop. Im not really interested in Warhammer table top, but if anyone is going to be able to get me into it, it would be Matthew. I was talking to my friends, and hes definitely the employee that companies aim to hire. Hes very knowledgeable of everything I was interested in and his excitement has a tendency to rub off on you. Its impossible to leave the store in a sour mood when he assisted you. Definitely whatever hes being paid isnt enough.
Matthew is amazing. Last time my husband and I visited we were just browsing, but when he asked if we needed anything I remembered I had taken a photo of the empty paint pot display at my local game shop. The photo was super blurred where I couldn’t read the name but I was able to describe it as a dark blue wash and he knew exactly what I was talking about and set it aside for me. We went home with The Great Unclean One, Possessed, Munitorum Armored Containers, and Drakenhof Nightshade. Can’t wait for our next visit.
Matthew and John were awesome! Great product knowledge, friendly, and passionate about their store and hobby. Store was clean, great variety of product, and plenty of gaming tables.
Matt and John are awesome and always willing to help out. Everyone who Ive met playing at the shop is also super friendly. Highly recommend
Very cool manager. He knows a lot and is engaged and energetic. He helped me do a custom order and it arrived quickly and went smoothly.
I have been in customer service for much of my career before becoming a teacher, but I have not met anyone as good at it as Matt at this GW store. This guy needs a raise! I am new to the game and this guy has the patience of Job with all of my questions. 6/5 stars!
Havent been to GW in 10 years and yesterday i got a chance to go. I brought my girlfriend and we enjoyed the visit. The best part was an employee named Matt. It was busy but he took the time to great us and made small talk. Before we left he talked with us some more and even got us to agree to come back. The 5 stars go all to him!
Been a loyal customer since opening day. Matt is the best
Fantastic customer service. Matthew was extremely helpful. I greatly appreciated his upbeat and positive demeanor as well as his obvious passion for the hobby. Will be returning soon!
Matthew was amazing. Great service, knowledgeable and upbeat. Knew exactly what we wanted and answered all of our questions. Absolutely would recommend!
Matthew was great and I had a good first time in the shop. Looking forward to future visits.
When I need a Games Workshop product, I never buy it online. I get in my car and drive an hour away JUST to visit this store. This shop has the best Friendly Local Game Store atmosphere Ive ever experienced, and thats saying something for such a notoriously-expensive company! Matt is by far the kindest, most helpful salesman Ive ever met, and hes a great guy to talk to for anyone interested in miniature painting, collecting, or wargaming! He takes his time and never makes you feel rushed or silly for your questions, and he recommends the products he believes in. Highly recommend visiting this place just to meet him, and Im sure youll leave satisfied and smiling with a full bag of goodies!
Matt is a really nice guy, and the store itself is just a really nice community. More than happy to buy here and hoping that when it opens back up I can play a few games there as well.
Probably the best customer service I’ve ever received.
Matt is so helpful, knowledgeable, and accommodating. Visit for all your Warhammer needs
The gentleman that always helps us, Matt, is VERY helpful, knowledgeable and just a really great guy. He offers his help with anything they may need. Great shop!
Were new to the Rochester area (from Ferndale) and happened to drive the back way to exit the Target parking lot when we spotted Games Workshop. We play DnD exclusively but were curious about the GW brand of miniatures. Matthew greeted is enthusiastically and we observed a dozen people playing or painting minis in the back half of the store.The store is well merchandised and stocked. Matthews energy was infectious and genuine. I plan to come back for a one on one mini painting lesson. You can purchase a starter pack for $45 and use the paints for minis in your collection.
The staff is fantastic. They can answer any questions you may have. Selection of products is pretty large and if its it not in-store they can order it right up at the front. Overall great experience.
Matt is one of the best people ever for customer service, I love it every time I come in. If any of the paints dont work he is always willing to help or switch it out. I would highly recomend this place to everyone
Best GW store there is, hands down. Above and beyond doesn’t even scratch the surface of the level of customer service at this store. Matt treats every customer like they just spent a thousand dollars on Warhammer and his enthusiasm is Nurgle level infectious. It is worth making a drive to get there; Matt will make the visit worthwhile.
Great customer service! Matt was very helpful and nice, it was a long drive from flint but will definitely be back.
The Manager (I think) Matt is super cool and friendly. I am new to warhammer and Matt has been super friendly and excited to introduce me and my friends to the hobby. Always ready to answer any questions and when I told him I wanted to make Chaos my first army he was super hyped. Couldnt ask for a better store representative, he is the reason I drive the extra miles instead of going to the mini store thats 5 minutes away.
Great place, excellent service, just starting out on Warhammer with my daughter and her boyfriend. As soon as we walked in we felt like we had been there many times, Matt treated us like loyal customers and not like first timers. This means a lot to me driving almost an hour to get to his store. We will continue to shop at Games Workshop and thank-you Matt for being extremely helpful in getting me started in a new adventure with my daughter. Thanks!!
Matt was a wonderful salesman for my boyfriend and I. We have never played before and Matt was super helpful telling us everything we needed to know. Will definitely go back for future purchases.
Drove 30 minutes to find they were closed when posted hours were from 12 pm to 6 pm. Waste of my time.
My experience there was amazing Matthew who works there is amazing he knows any questions you have and hes always in a great mood he also has so many tips on so much I suggest going there especially to people who may just be starting to go there as soon as you can and get started. 😃
Its amazing how important customer service is. My whole group of people that I play Warhammer with LOVE coming here! Sure, we could go to almost any hobby shop & either pick up a model off the shelf or have models special ordered for us, but you dont get the full experience that way. He literally just come for Matt & his other, equally enthusiastic, coworkers! Anytime we have any questions, or even just want to geek out, Matt is always there to lend an ear or hand!
Friendly and knowledgeable staff. Will definitely be back!
They only seem to sell gw merch but when thats what you want this is where you go
I just went there today and wow. The store is awesome, the main guy Mathew is incredibly nice and very knowledgeable. They have everything you could need and more! The only complaint I could possibly have is that its so hard not to spend money!!!
Some of the best customer service I have ever had. Smaller shop but they are well stocked.
This store is amazing for model and paint needs. The owner is extremely friendly and helpful, and I can enter and leave the store with exactly what I was looking for in minutes. Great service
Been coming here for over a decade, referred countless friends to learn Age of Sigmar and Warhammer 40k. Matt has been a great help over the years, especially when it comes to painting tips!
Matt is probably the happiest retail worker I have ever met. He makes the visits there beyond pleasant.
Simply just came to get some primer and check out a GamesWorkshop store for the first time, but man was it a great experience. The worker, Matt, was so nice and helpful. The store itself is really cool too. Would definitely like to come back once I finish my army and play some games there.
I love this place, Matt was exceptional. First place I went when I went up there on vacation, had too. Wish you guys would open up a shop in South Carolina. Very knowledgeable and friendly, I will definitely be returning next year
My favorite store to visit by far, Ive come a few times over the years and, even though its over an hour away, I love going because I know I will be treated respectfully and honestly. The employees will do whatever they can to help you and are very knowledgeable of the hobby.EDIT: also the store size is somewhat small but it is not of their own doing, and still holds everything you could ask for.
Just found out about the store this week, and I was curious to see how it operated and the price of the sets compared to GWs website. As expected, they match the same price, which admittedly isnt the best deal, but man despite that I see myself coming back. Matt, was extremely nice, considerate, and patient. The best Game shop experience Ive had, if Im honest!
Awesome and compact. No need to wander endless isles. Everything is easy to find and on display. Looking forward to going back on a game night to catch some matches.
Only complaint is that this guy is too covid compliant. Some might find that a plus, but lets not debate that here.
The worker absolutely loves his job and you can tell. The excitement is infectious. GW if you read these, you dont pay that man enough. I dont know his name but he has rekindled my interest in the hobby.
Knowledgeable and friendly group. Willing to talk hobby. More 40k than Fantasy but thats not unusual these days.
Matt is a great guy. He’s really into it and recommends you things that you really need. Definitely recommend it.
First time in an official GW store and the fellow that works there was awesome. I still buy most of my stuff at my local comic shop, but making the trek here a couple times a year is well worth it.
Very clean very well-spoken staff had what i needed would recommend this store to any warhammer 40k fan will shop again!
They had about everything that youd want for fantasy or 40k, but not much for their other games. There are a lot of limitations due to Covid though.
Great Staff, Matt is extremely knowledgeable and courteous to the clientele, both the regulars and those new to the hobby. Premier Games Workshop store for Michigan, selling their products exclusively, as well as a decent sized area for playing their games. Top notch.
The staff is always extremely nice and helpful with whatever you need, whether youre brand new to the hobby or have been in it for decades. Would absolutely recommend stopping in for everything Warhammer.
Just visited this shop for the first time. The employee who helped me (Matt) was super helpful and friendly. Awesome environment that I would definitely recommend this store to anyone interested.
Great service and atmosphere. The owner is passionate and knowledgeable about all things GW.
I love this place. The manager is amazing and knows a lot. Everyone there is very nice and willing to help with anything you need
Store was well stocked with updated miniatures. Was greeted and helped immediately. Very friendly customer service.
Matt was super friendly and welcoming. Looking forward to get my army put together so I can come in and play!
Good, friendly shop in the greater Metro-Detroit area. Staff has always been helpful to myself, and any customers Ive seen come in that are interested in tabletop gaming. Unlike other stores Ive been to, Ive never been pressured into making a purchase, and have been encouraged to use products (paints and other finishing items) that are not their product.
Matt (The store owner) makes the game fun.Ive been to a bunch of store where its either buy or get out...This is not how Matt runs store. He is willing to explain every detail of the game to new players and doesnt push someone to purchase anything and make them uncomfortable.Good salesman, good guy, friendly, and passionate about his hobby. I will always buy from this store even though its a 40 minute drive away.
Matthew was so friendly and knowledgeable! Its a small store so I got to witness his candor with every single person who came in and it so welcoming
Love coming here! Great service, store manager is awesome and knowledgeable. Wish I could spend more time here.
A great store for all things Warhammer. The manager was very friendly and helpful. We will be back.
Very friendly service. I enjoyed my visit.
If youre looking for Warhammer or other Games Workshop productions is a great store. Good selection of stuff and very friendly and knowledgeable staff.
Great place to spend time. Staff is great too.
Matt is amazing and very knowledgeable about Warhammer and the ins and outs of the hobby. The atmosphere is friendly and not just inviting, but outright welcoming. I cannot recommend this place more!
Matt is amazing. Knowledge, friendly, a fantastic General Manager to run the store.
After leaving an area in San Diego that was very Warhammer heavy, I lost touch with the game and tried a few different substitutions. Eventually I really wanted to get back into Warhammer and decided to take the 45 min drive out to this store to see what it was like. I was unbelievably surprised by the owner, Matt. He is a really nice guy and always up to date with everything Games Workshop. Not only that, but he gets to know each customer. I came by only the one time for no more that maybe 20-30 minutes and when I returned a week later Matt not only remembered my name but also what faction I enjoyed and how I enjoyed playing the game. I now go at least once a week to pick up something new. This store may be small, but the atmosphere makes visiting worth every minute.
Super helpful and friendly. Wish this place was closer to home.
Great store; Matt is an excellent asset for GW. Hes happy to order whats not in the store and hold on to it until youre able to pick it up. In my case it was a month as I live up in the thumb.
Me and a buddy work in the same plaza and weve been by it plenty of times we decided to go in one day. I was very pessimistic due to bad experiences before however that attitude quickly changed as soon as we walked in. We were greeted by Matt the store owner he was very chill and polite he asked us how we got into the game how long we played and so on. We didnt feel pressured to buy anything at all he said you wanna browse feel free.TL:DR Matts great and so is the location.
This store is small but they have 4 tables in the back area to play on and a front table for Demos . The manager has a positive attitude and is nice guy, very excited and knowledgeable about the hobby.
Best place to get anything for your warhammer colection or family member whos into it. Matt is ALWAYS super friendly and nice and answers any questions with out ever making you feel dumb for not knowing.
Matt was awesome helping us out and explaining age of sigmar to my fiance, she is absolutely geeked and is currently putting her armies together. He also told me of more stuff I like thats potentially coming in and was just super stoked to do his job. Gj games workshop this is one employee you need to keep. Give this man a raise. 10/10 experiences (Matt has helped me with previous book purchases in the past) GIVE THIS MAN A RAISE he is the reason I will spend ludacris amounts of money for plastic miniatures lol
Went to the store not knowing much about warhammer 40k. Matt (the store owner) introduced me to the game. Matt was very kind and respectful and engaged and cared about the conversation you were having. Also, it is very personal. Matt knew the majority of the customers by first name when they entered. 100% recomend this place!
Great place for anyone looking to get interested in Warhammer and any who already are.
If you love warhammer board games and miniature games this is exactly where you should go! Talk to matt he will set you straight. He honestly loves the hobby and will get you what you need.
If you want warhammer come here and meet Matt - The best in the business.
Amazing staff, nice and extremely helpful. I will be going here to get everything Warhammer related for now on instead of ordering online.
This has to be my favorite place in Rochester. Matt is the best games workshop sales man I have ever met
Really kind staff, willing to explain everything you need to know about the hobby of painting your own figures for the board game.
This one is okay as Games Workshop stores go. As always a great staff and very helpful.
I love having a GW Store local to me
I can talk for hours about everything I like about going to GW for Warhammer 40k and how theres always the most recent stock, fantastic organization, and just being a great hobby shop in general. But you can get that at any Games Workshop. You know what you cant get at every other Games Workshop? Matt.Matt is the store owner and he is very passionate and proud of this hobby. My friends and I got into Warhammer 40k months ago but its intimidating to go to a well established hobby shop that has its regulars and niche customers. Most places are Buy or go home. Not here, no. Matt wants you to enjoy this hobby and absolutely loves what he does. Sometimes I dont buy anything cause Im there to ask questions or browse. My point is that Matt makes this place more than just a shop. You can learn how to play, learn how to paint, heck, you can go there just to assemble your army and read lore. I cant appreciate Matts hard work enough, if it wasnt for him, I probably wouldnt enjoy or even understand the hobby as much as I do. This is a warm and very welcoming place to enjoy the tabletop hobby. Its definitely worth the time to just drop in, I promise you wont regret it.
Great selection, very helpful with newcomers, Matthew was awesome, these guys definitely know their stuff!
The people are great. They are very helpful, but the prices are somewhat ridiculous.
A little truth in advertising would help. They described their store as though its general-purpose gaming but its Warhammer only. If youre not into Warhammer, this place is useless. If you are into Warhammer, I suppose this place feels like heaven on Earth.
The -best- place to get started with Warhammer!
Awesome customer service, and glad to see they know their stuff! looking forward to returning with my finished army!
Great place. Nice staff. Good hobby
Great store owner and staff.
Matt is an amazing manager and is always able to help with any questions I have. I definitely recommend this Games Workshop store for all of your Warhammer needs!
As soon as you oper that door you are happily greeted by great staff that is very knowledgeable and very easy going!!
Matts a very good person and helped me out with a 50mm base one of my kids lost out of my shadowspear box. He simply gave me one of his personal ones. Hes a outstanding guy who cares about his customers.
Great place, great people.
Went to check it out, was shown my first demo, and enjoyed the game of 40k. Thanks Matthew.
Friendly people to play with and Matt the guy in charge is very nice. Still the shop is very small compared to other GW locations I have visited
Amazing expierance getting new miniaturesand learning a lot from from the store manager Matt. What an awesome guy he was.
Wonderful atmosphere very knowledgeable and friendly.
Matt is great and friendly to his customers. Really easy to talk to and give tips about a passionate hobby!
Great staff combined with a great selection of game workshops line of products.
Great customer service. Will be buying from here from now on.
Friendly, helpful staff. Always activities going on.
Fantastic customer service, staff is very knowledgable and always eager to help. Tables to paint at and game on.
