Scheels

Fun place to visit and shop. Very clean, safe area, plenty of parking. Lots of employees to ask for help. Plan for an hr. at least to enjoy walking around and looking at everything! $1 to ride the Ferris wheel.

I accidentally found this wonderful store!
So I brought my daughter to Springfield to learn about Lincoln with our homeschooling group and one of the kids wanted to go to a candy store. So I looked up candy stores in the area and found Fuzziwigs Candy Factory. When I put it into the GPS, it brought us here!
I was taken back!! First, by the president benches with informational placks in front of thr store.. Then, by the amazing fish tank inside that you can walk under.. Then by the indoor Ferris wheel in the middle of the store!! It was just one thing after another. We went up to the candy store to find MORE presidents and a giant mountain full of animals accompanied by a hanging airplane!!
After we bought candy, we headed over to check the bows out, and there is a gun range over there! (A kids one, of course) We kept walking to find a few arcade games.. They were only $1 to play.. We went to the Ferris Wheel, and it was $1/person as well!
Definitely a sweet find that we will have to come back to again when we visit the area.
They are open Monday through Saturday from 9am-9pm and on Sunday from 10am-6pm.

Best retail store in the country! Great service, family friendly, and the products are unbelievable! The experience is unmatched compared to other retail stores. Very much worth the time spent in Scheels with your family.

Very nice store. Loved the huge saltwater fish tank with all the variety of fish present. Huge variety inside from shoes and clothes to hunting gear, fishing gear, camping gear, games, frisbee golf, golf, ping pong tables, dart boards, cafe, candy shop and the list could go on.

Had a great time getting outfitted for a bow Zack and T gave me several options and strived to keep me on a good price point. Thanks to them I upgraded from an old school
Compound bow to a beautiful phase 4. Shoots so well. Thanks guys

Scheels had turned into my favorite store to visit, especially when I am traveling. I've been to the Fargo, Rapid City, Overland Park and now Springfield stores and they always have the best gear and best prices. Always a pleasure to stop in!

We need more scheels in the world. The best sporting goods store! Ferris Wheel. What?????

They're fudge and jerky are amazing! Ferris wheel and salt water tanks are cool. There's so much to do here! Highly recommend this place!!

Everything you'll ever want and move! Fun for the whole family.
I highly recommend it

Got a great deal on a Trek hybrid bike to commute to work. I like this store and the discounts they can offer. Their bike shop is friendly/helpful and don't rip you off on service and tune up prices.

The ferris wheel operator (Gavin) was very nice and helpful to see if there was anything we needed. The cashiers are always nice and patient when I add something the last minutes. They even wrapped my salsa and pickles very well.
I also found some of the best fuzzy socks I have worn! Thanks, Scheels!

Pretty nice store with a wide selection of most everything. I loved the fish tanks. I wish they had more of a selection in softball things as well as catchers gear. Decent prices on everything and their food is great too.

Wow! First time here, and this place has it all for sporting goods. Well set up, truly have a chance to enjoy the shopping experience with family & friends. So much to do and all the different equipment to browse and/or tryout. It's a must stop if you're in Springfield or even nearby or passing through. You won't be disappointed.

One of my favorite stores for many reasons. The selection is great for all my outdoor needs. The building is cool to just walk around. They always have what I need. I just wish I had one closet to Saint Louis.

There aren't many places you can take your kids for a sub $5 date, but that’s exactly what I did with my daughter this afternoon.

$1 each for a ride on the Ferris wheel, $1 for a race in the arcade, and $1 for soft serve ice cream. Plus a lot of fun chasing "Nemo & Dori" the fish for free. Can't beat it!

Beyond that, Scheels is incredible overall. It's definitely worth visiting for all of the many quality products and the friendly service. It's a gem of a place!

Prices are a little high, but the selection is unbeatable. Staff are always pleasant and really go above and beyond. This is definitely a stop if your from out of town and is a great local resource for the locals.

Scheel's is one of our favorite sporting goods stores! Not only do they carry all of the major brands that you may be in search of, but they also have a food area, candy store, ferris wheel (which only costs $1 to ride), kids toys/games, etc. Their aquarium is cool to walk under. Fantastic place to takes kids. We love to visit when we're in town, as we are a few hours away.

Stopped in while driving through Springfield. Clean store, pleasant and helpful staff. One employee even gave our small, elderly dog a treat. The ferris wheel was only $1 a rider which was nice! Our two small boys liked the shooting range game which was .50¢ per kid. Prices for gear was a little pricier than we normally spend. Gun prices were reasonable but you have to obey Illinois law for gun sales, even out of state shoppers.

The cafe is great. Nicely priced and food quality was really good. Large portions and made to order. Definitely recommend grabbing a bite to eat.

A fun 2 hours (grand-girls, ages 5 & 3) Great price on kid’s meals. The ferris wheel ride is only $1. The large aquarium is very nice. Helpful staff. Candy store, small arcade area, mountain of taxidermied animals and mini-bowling all a bonus. Shopping: GREAT variety on all things sport equipment —> clothes, shoes, bikes, swimming, skiing, and hunting/guns. Double ck your prices to make sure you’re getting a good deal. Some things are priced a tad too high. Variety of products is exceptional.

This is a great place to go as a family. You can shop, play at the play area in the kids section, ride the ferris wheel, go bowling, and eat at the Cafe. My kids love seeing the fish and the animal display while their dad does his shopping.
