Eureka has a friendly, helpful staff. The store is also very hands-on; they have games that you can try out. They also have a series of game nights followed by refreshments at the store. I never come out of Eureka empty handed!

The staff are friendly and knowledgeable, and the selection is great! Don't see something? Ask the store owner, David, and he might just be able to get it in for you. We love Eureka! They foster community through their Explore More events, too. Join the email list, you'll love it.

They have great stuff. I choose something for myself and end up buying it later as a present for someone else. I especially like the items that continue to amaze and amuse even when you know the science.

When I first went into Eureka a few months ago I found so many new games it was hard not to overspend. I immediately bought several games such as the 3D Rumis which is SO cool! We play it all the time. Also got a neat whirligig with crystal ball that hangs in our window. It's just the coolest shop. Have been back several times since.
