Perkins Hobby House

Absolutely everything you need hobby wise, especially for models. Even carries a wide range of Estes and adjacent products. 5*

Very conveniently located for Petawawa / Pembroke

Incredible hobby store; great selection and super friendly owner. I come all the way from Ottawa to visit and it's worth it everytime

I found this Hobby shop about a month ago and I am totally in love with it. It is a must know about for any model builder in the Ottawa Valley. Most of the stuff sold, especially Paint is probably not avaliable without going to ottawa. Their paint selection is amazing, they carry every Valleyjo paint there is as well as a good selection of Tamiya and some other brands as well.

The owner Gary is a great guy, and super helpful with tips and tricks, especially for anyone who is a novice builder.

Would give ten stars if I could
Its a struggle not to go everytime I visit Petawawa lol

Very good place to go for both products and advice! Im new to model building and left this store feeling a lot more knowledgable and sure i bought the right stuff. No overselling, just great info!

The best Warhammer and paints selection around, no contest. The owner is always pleasant and is very knowledgable and helpful, I've lost track of time talking about 40k lore with him more than once. There's lots of rare stuff and its the only place in the area (that I know of) where you can find Bolt Action, Flames of War, OOP Warhammer kits and Vallejo paints, not to mention all kinds of hobby supplies. On the right day, its a fun little labrynth to explore and theres a lot of cool stuff to see. The space is crowded, I've never played here and don't feel comfortable finding out what that'd be like, and the folks who cover for the owner are seldom as friendly, but it is nonetheless an absolute gem for local wargamers and hobbyists.
