had a wonderful experience visiting hobby lobby's framing section at the Rochester NY location on Jefferson Rd (store #927). I got help from a very nice guy, Mark, who was extremely helpful. it is hard to find good employees anymore, but he definitely an exception because he went above and beyond to help me. not to mention the pricing was great. Thanks Mark!

The Hobby Lobby store recently opened up in Avon I have been purchasing there since that they opened. I recently purchased a can of spray paint the instructions said to stick a screwdriver in the cap and turn it to remove the cap. Upon doing that the complete can of paint completely erupted. All the paint went on my workstation my green mat my floor in my chair and myself. I took the paint back to the Hobby Lobby store and I said I was very unhappy with what had happened and I didn't think it was fair to just get the $3.50 that can cost me. Rather than asking what would make me happy which would have been very little based upon what it happened the manager very matter-of-factly said oh you have to call the manufacturer and deal with them. I explained to him that I had bought it from Hobby Lobby and that's where the problem was and again he never even asked me what he could do to make it right again it would have been very little considering the damage you that done. I feel that these managers are not trade-in customer service they're strictly trained in making money that is the way it felt and therefore I do not need to do any more business with Hobby Lobby anywhere.

I'd leave less if I could. Went to hobby Lobby in Racine Wisconsin on 3/17/22. I operate an Etsy store and Hobby lobby was my go to for basic supplies. Yesterday's Trip was a nightmare. i Asked where certain items were and was ignored, I asked if there was more of a particular items in back was very rudely told that they don't keep stock in the back, I also asked for a price check on an item and wad told by staff, there's no time to price check. It was 1 pm and other than the staff there might have been 5 customers in the store. The few things I did buy were priced on the high end of reasonable. The unfinished wood boxes are now not an item I would buy from Hobby lobby. They have raised prices on several items by as much as 500% or more. Went to Michael's and got treated much better by the staff.

I have had the pleasure of dealing with Kathleen M , at your Mckinley Park Mall store in Blasdell, NY. Kathleen went out of her way to make my framing, matting a sure pleasure. She deserves to be recognized for her patients, in satisfying me as a customer. KUDOS to Kathleen M for an outstanding employee!

Cute stuff, but it’s really all junk. Poorly made and they don’t back their products. Probably best for one-time-use items - party decor, give-aways, etc. stay away from wall decor and fake wood items!

I prefer Hobby Lobby for crafts. I make a lot of cards. I find that they carry items like steps dies and just more to choice from Always find more choice even card stock has more of a choice. I live in Connecticut . I guess it depends on what you want. The service has always been good workers helpful.

The prices are good but the lines rival Walmart's ridiculous business practices. Now I know why a lot of people buy online. And the manager is no where to be found!

Do not order from Hobby Lobby online! I purchased two baskets late December 2021. One finally delivered January 18, the other one was on the FedEx truck to deliver January 19. I sent an email and called Hobby Lobby CS on January 20th. I left a message because they were too busy to take my call. Customer Service returned my call but I was unable to take the call because I work during the day but call right back 4 times leaving a message each time but no response. I spoke to the operator who transferred me to the sup Jana but she never returned my call. On January 21st I called during my 30 minute lunch. I was finally able to speak to a CS rep after a 20 minute hold. After explaining my issue, she put me back on hold and I believe maybe reached out to FedEx, came back on the phone and said that I should call back after 8 days for a refund if I still have not received the item. Really!!! Hobby Lobby has had my money since late December and I still do not have the merchandise.

i received a gift card to Hobby lobby and although i don't normally shop hobby lobby I went to one a couple of weeks ago to use the give card. i was going to buy yarn and the yarn department was at the back of the store. a manager was walking by me so i asked him if they'd acquired scooters. he said no only wheelchairs, i asked if he'd push me in the wheelchair to the yarn department and he said no he couldn't. the store is so big, and it is a hardship for me to shop there. anyway, when i was there i bought several skeins of yarn, i decided i need some more yarn so i hopped on line and went to their website to order more yarn for curbside pickup. i couldn't find where to signify that i wanted curbside pick up and couldn't find it so i called their customer service number and asked for help finding out how to make the order. the woman who answered the phone said that their website is owned by somebody else who have their own warehouses ergo no curbside pickup. for a company who toots their own horn about allowing staff and customers a day of rest in order to worship by keeping their stores closed, this attitude toward customer service is pretty bad. i will never shop hobby lobby again.

I bought a small glass cube and didn't notice that one corner was badly chipped. I was in a hurry to make a gift for a friend and quickly etched it only to notice the chip. I understand since it was etched H.L. may not accept the return but the manager (I'm assuming she was the manager) in the Attleboro, MA store said they couldn't accept it because it was etched but didn't answer me when I asked, would you re-sell it if I just returned it damaged? If the store is returning to the manufacture because of the damage, would the etching really be an issue? Anyway, I rarely shop at H.L. I prefer Michael's and really miss AC Moore.

Hobby Lobby is giving their full-time employees a raise from$17 to $18.50, however, after the Christmas holiday season which is only about six weeks, the full-time employees will barely get 30 hours and the part-time employees will barely get 12 hours. Hobby Lobby's own employee handbook stipulates 35 hours or more as full-time. The public does not know this.

Cleveland, Tenn. SHOPPERS+EMPLOYEES BEWARE!!! 😧😯 As a supposed Christian owned company, thought this would be an ethical place to work. I thought WRONG...the very first day of training I was INTIMIDATED and BULLIED by "Supervisor John Wood" from reading the Employee Handbook. Throughout the week, routinely observed Employees DENIED their rest breaks, lunch breaks, and FORCED to ILLEGALLY WORK OFF OF THE CLOCK. STAY AWAY FROM THIS PLACE AS IT REEKS OF CORPORATE CORRUPTION+GREED+WHO KNOWS WHAT ELSE???!!! May Jesus Christ reveal ALL of what happens at this store location....βœ¨πŸ™βœ¨.....

Checkout takes forever. If you get in the wrong line and have been waiting, if they call backup and if the backup does come up to open another line, they leave the people who have been waiting in line and help the people who just walked up. When opening a new line, they should ALWAYS ask for the next person in line. 6 people got checked out who came up after me. I had one item and was second in line when I walked up. Yet I waited in line and watched them open 2 more lines and help people behind me and people that walked up long after me. Terrible service. Cheap quality products. Name brand stuff never on sale.
