Battleground Games & Hobbies is a hobby shop with a large selection of board games, CCGs, and wargames, including a huge Warhammer selection and other miniatures like Star Wars and Malifaux. They carry Lorcana cards and are praised for being kid-friendly and having helpful staff, especially Brianna. However, some reviews criticize poor customer service, with long waits and inattentive staff, as well as a loud, obnoxious, and unwelcoming atmosphere from Magic players. Pricing is also called out as overpriced for some items. The store offers plenty of play space, scheduled events, and food and drinks for purchase.
