Great little gem of a store in Madison. I went by here recently to offload a bunch of my Magic cards and it is wonderful. They have various cards from whatever popular series you’re looking for, D&D stuff, warhammer paints, pathfinder books, dice, and more! Love the staff and the atmosphere. I will definitely be back again!

Amazing! Great customer service even when coming in at an odd hour. I usually come in on Fridays for mtg commander and the place always has great people, usually enough to make around 2 tables of four. Also if your going to be spending money there often I would definitely recommend the rewards program, 10$ off for every 100$ you spend is certainly not nothing! ❤️

Staff is easy to talk with and the place is very organized. Great place to look for comics and open cards for TCG. They were also very fair with the pricing with buying my cards off of me and selling cards as singles.

We love this place!

Great place to go variety of comics and games for anybody to play. Got a schedule for their events would recommend it to anyone

Great atmosphere and amazing staff

I have given these guys every opportunity to earn my business but Shannon, the lady who owns the place is just the worst. 0/10 for customer service from her personally. If you're serious about cards try any other store. Literally any. Gravity games and JCs house of cards are both owned by good people who care about their customer experience. I waited two years to write this. And every time I walk in there, Shannon specifically is rude as hell. There are much better people in town to support with better attitudes. Additionally this location takes tournaments that were meant for everyone and makes them "invite only" so the people they want can win the prizing offered by the producer. They have no concept of even playing field for tournaments. They are completely partial to their home players and not interested in running any real legitimate events.

The staff is extremely friendly, helpful, and passionate. The family friendly atmosphere allows me to relax and just enjoy playing various tabletop and card games without stressing about politics, religion, or other controversial topics. They maintain a fun and relaxed atmosphere that welcomes all families and friends!

Yes, Yes, YES! Raging Gazebo is truly the epitome of premier "nerd" shops in our area. They provide a SUPER clean play space, a large play area for people of all game genres, and the only shop open late in the north Alabama region. If your gaming preference is Magic: The Gathering, Dungeons & Dragons, Lorcana, Star Trek, Yu-Gi-Oh, Flesh & Blood, Pokemon, comic books, board games, painting, the list goes on and on, Raging is the place to go. They will teach you how to play anything. I have watched the owner, multiple times, teaching children, teens, and adults how to make a character sheet for D&D. Who takes the time to make sure you play your game properly?? No one. But at Raging, they make sure your new hobby gets off on the right start. I started going to Raging in April 2024. Playing Magic the Gathering here, gave me the confidence to play on a tournament level by June 2024. Since then, I have played multiple tournaments, while still playing casually, once per week. Whether you are an engineer, dive bar-tender, single mom/dad, transitioning human, shy, outgoing, nerdy, geeky, a human of any realm, Raging provides an atmosphere for you. To add to the previous statement (only because of previous reviews): This is a "family-friendly environment." Meaning: use appropriate/professional language. Don’t use words that are banned on national television during primetime. If every other word you say has to be bleeped, then reconsider your sentence structure, and read a book to expand your vocabulary beyond whatever internet video/streaming show is popular at the moment. This is only frustrating if you don't know how to behave in public (This is coming from someone who works in an environment where I am constantly reminded how "beautiful" and "delicious" my natural body and bits are while I have no choice but to smile and do my job. Trust me, I know plenty of ways to use expletives that will make you question all your life choices leading up to meeting me. However, I choose to be a semi-educated human when expressing verbal communication at this shop. Also, coming from a person who has been a very proud ALLY for two decades of my adult life). They provide snacks for purchase, the cleanest and well-stocked bathrooms, and a play area for your little humans. I have never been anywhere in my life that made me feel more at home than Raging Gazebo. Do not miss your opportunity to experience the joy I have at this locally owned shop. They have provided me with more happiness and courage than any other experience in my multiple years of life. Thank you Raging!

It is scientifically proven that you sleeve decks at Raging Gazebo 80% faster, shuffle 50% more smoothly, draw cards 110% better, and all this adds up to be 100% more games played and more games played means a 200% happier customer. It's scientifically proven

I will start off with the one good thing about the store product for most competitive tcgs they have stock and then some that's were the good stops this store feels way to conservative with strong since of anti lgbt vibes and the owners words being law ma and pa is right the owner and her husband can break any rules they want it's shady to have a co owner to play in your tournaments and take prizeing but report it and it goes to her judge jury and executioner your banned the customer service is favoritism based as people down the list have said I just recommend hitting any other place in huntsville to play competitive card games

Love the place me and my wife are there about three times a week. They are always helpful. And are ALWAYS FRIENDLY to all. Great customer service.

Visiting from out of town and happened to be driving by when I saw their sign. Very pleasantly surprised to find a neat, well-lit and cared for comic and game store. This is not the typical tight, hole-in-the-wall location. I can't comment on the gaming portion, but the comics were nicely priced and the service was second-to-none. As an added bonus, I was looking for old books and they had a stack of them in stock, and the gentleman was willing to go hunt them up for me. Excellent experience.

It's a nice store, clean, well stocked. Staff are friendly. But the insistence on the 'family friendly' signs on every table can feel offputting as an LGBTQ individual, since 'family friendly' is so often an anti-lgbtq dog whistle. I feel as if I can't quite let my guard down there, and a few friends who I've tried to play with there have said the same.

When I first heard about this place in my mind I envisioned a completely different vibe and was amazingly impressed! A true place for everyone. Comics, dice, toys, cards of all sorts and an inviting family friendly experience.
