South Tacoma hobby shop blending Pokemon and MTG with miniatures and a tight-knit gaming community along S Tacoma Way.
Silver King Games & Hobby anchors the South Tacoma Way corridor with a near-perfect rating that says a lot about how regulars feel about the place. It is a true full-service hobby shop, mixing trading card games with board games, role-playing games, miniatures, and the paints and tools that the Warhammer crowd lives on.
On the card side, Pokemon and Magic: The Gathering lead the way, with singles, packs, and sealed product backed by a staff reviewers repeatedly describe as friendly and genuinely invested in helping. The miniatures and hobby supply selection gives the shop a depth that pure card stores cannot match, drawing a broad cross-section of the South Sound gaming scene.
The atmosphere is the draw. Customers single out the welcoming community feel, where someone painting minis, a Magic player testing a deck, and a kid starting their first Pokemon binder all share the same room comfortably. That inclusive vibe has earned Silver King its standout reputation.
A note on timing: weekday hours run shorter, with Tuesday through Thursday open in the afternoon from 4pm to 7pm, while Fridays and Saturdays stretch to 9pm and Sundays and Mondays run late morning to evening. Weekends are the natural window for events and a fuller floor.
For a Tacoma card shop that treats hobbyists of every stripe like part of the family, Silver King Games & Hobby earns its loyal following on the south side of the city.
