I have known these as a "hobby shop." They cater to adults (and sophisticated kids) who build model aircraft, trains, radio-controlled drones and the like and need things like spare parts, foam board, paints of a certain kind, glues of a certain kind, shrink-wrap plastics and fabrics of certain kinds, et cetera.
Yes, this might be USA-regional and even comes from decades ago. I haven't seen one in a long time, but I know they exist in bigger cities, a recent search shows their names include ending in "Hobby, Hobbies, Hobby House, Hobby Shop" and similar.
Whether "hobby_shop" works in other regions (or across languages) is unknown to me, but it's two-thumbs-up in the USA.
