If I need something, this Ace Hardware has it. If I pay two extra dollars for the same item…read moreavailable at Home Depot, it is worth it to me not to have to drive to Bellingham. I have never gone to the store and walked away empty handed. The store had what I needed. Good service as well. I have had many locks keyed here and they do a great job. Their selection includes quality brands and reasonable prices so I really like this ACE Hardware store in Lynden.

I went into Ace Hardware on Oct 23 around 6pm. The young men working were great, very helpful. Made…read moresure I found what I needed, they get 5 stars. Then I went up to the counter where a young woman was working,,, haaaaa, as the cashier. She was eating, kept putting food in her face as she rang up my purchase. She was rude, unfriendly. Un fortunately her behavior was so bad, that is the last time for this ACE hardware. If it wasn't for the young guys, this would be a 1 star rating. The young men get a 5 star, she gets a no star. If she wanted to go home that bad, quite and walk out! Don't be a 1 star employee in a 5 star work force, it reflects poorly on your fellow employees, and reflects even worse on you. Eatting while ringing up customers? If I was the manager and saw that. I'd sent you home. No worries about me returning. I am not going to put up with any rude young child.

I am hard to impress when it comes to pocket knives. Very reasonable prices for brick and mortar store, often seeing people charging a lot closer to msrp and higher in Seattle. Go get a sick spyderco pm2 in cruwear with canvas micarta, or maybe the salt serious pm2 in glorious magnacut! Or just a mora if you need an amazing 20$ knife. Best part of the store? Definitely be the weirdo Joe M. In the back of the house, that guy is hilarious. Maybe one of the best people I've met.

They've been here for a long time, and I've been using them for a long time. In their pet supply section alone, they have all kinds of items and food for birds both indoors and outdoors, satisfying my African Grey and his little conure friend as well as all the juncos and chickadees in my backyard. I love walking through the store because of the great supply of all kinds of things: from farm implements, lawn care items, tools, gloves, hats, cages, more. Also found some fun toys and treats for our cat. There is a huge selection of cat and dog food, as well as stuff for less common pets such as guinea pigs, chickens and rabbits. (Were the Wallaby treats actually for kangaroos?) Lots of wonderful stuff for us humans too, especially for the holidays. Saw some wonderful silvery reindeer to go in yards, and bought some wonderful hanging tropical chimes for our house. Overall this place is a real treat.

I walked in on a Saturday looking for a compression angle stop. I have no clue what it is except…read morethat it is a plumbing part. My clueless expression must have shown on my face because the gal at the front desk ask if I needed help. (I later learned her name is Lily) she lead me to the plumbing section and spent some time looking through the rows and rows of straight stops and angle stops hoping to find the right fit. After 5-10 mins she got another staff's (Gabriel) attention asking to help. So together after several minutes and few trips back and forth along the plumbing aisle, they patiently figured out the difference in size fitting between a copper & iron pipe. In the end, Gabriel found the angle stop that fitted the water filter to my bidet. Shout out to Lily and Gabriel for their dedication to assist customers in need. The management should be proud of these two team members.

Yesterday only confirmed why we go to Westside. We were loading some items on top of the car, and Reuben and Ramon saw we were having some difficulty and intervened. They took apart what we had done and redid it in a totally professional way. They were cheerful, quick, and attentive to every detail, such as inserting cardboard to protect every contact point of the strapping. When we offered to pay them, they refused and instead offered hugs. Driving home, the load never shifted at all. It's people like this who restore my faith in humanity. Ramon and Reuben are absolute treasures, and they are known and valued at Westside.

It's become our go-to spot. But today, I want to give a special shoutout to Gretchen, one of the cashiers. Hands down, she provides the best customer service in Whatcom County -- no exaggeration. She could strike up a conversation with a brick wall and walk away best friends with it. She always has the kindest, warmest things to say, and makes every trip to the store feel like a bright spot in the day. Attention, management: You have a shining star in your midst! Gretchen truly embodies excellent customer service, and she makes this Tractor Supply location feel like a small-town gem. We appreciate her so much!
