WHAT'S UP, BIRCHES?!…read more This surprisingly spacious boutique specializing in home décor, apparel and accessories, like the Tardis, is much bigger on the inside than it appears. Unfortunately, the prices are also larger than other, similar shops in the area (Carousel in Snoqualmie, for example). There's more stock here, as a result of its size, and it's collection is arguably better curated and more stylish than most, depending on your taste. It's the kind of place my wife and I would love to shop, if things were a bit more affordable, but YMMV. Still, Birches Habitat is definitely worth checking out for the style-conscious consumer, and absolutely the best boutique in North Bend! You may find better deals at the outlet mall, but you're not likely to find anything as swanky!

Staying at Salish and walked into this gift shop with my husband to buy a few gifts my daughter…read more There's so much to look at that I was taking a bit long while my husband was perusing around. We're Hispanic and definitely got the vibe that one of the staff members was nervous we were going to steal something! The woman asked if my husband needed help 4x in the span of 20 minutes. He stepped outside to get reception and when he returned, she says "back again, I see". He met up with me towards the back wanting to leave and then she came up to ask if she could hold our items up at the front, I guess because she thought we were in cahoots. The whole thing is extra hilarious because we could easily afford to buy the entire store 4x over. My one regret is that my husband didn't share his experience beforehand so that I wouldn't have given them my money. Lesson learned.

On Wed 3/11 we had decided last minute, before heading to dinner, to go to the Auburn Outlet Mall…read morefor my daughter. She wanted to go to Nike and so while I waited, I decided to go to my favorite store Coach. To give some context, I was dressed in sweats and a raincoat. No makeup and looking like a wet rat (due to the weather) and came in about an hour before closing. As I walked into the store, the guard at the door was on his phone - not talking but watching something. There were 3 female employees talking to each other, maybe another reading something at the desk. Not ONE came and asked if I needed help or assistance. Walking around, I saw 3 pieces that really called to me. I mooned over them but chose not to purchase anything. I walked past the (payment) desk and still no one said anything to me. I walked to the door, the gaurd was still on his phone and then walked out. Being a lifelong Coach lover, this was the worst experience I've ever had at a store and I've been to many. If I could give them zero stars I would. Having gone to a Mall in an affluent neighborhood in Tucson Arizona. I went into thier Coach store, also dressed in sweats, and recieved Fantastic service. Optics matter to customers.

I've been shopping at this location for a few years, but I won't be coming back after my experience…read morelast week. I came in to buy some work clothes, and exchange a pair of pants from a previous shopping trip that still have the security tag on them. I obviously hadn't worn them due to the security tag, and I wanted to go a size up because I have had other banana republic pants shrink up since my last purchase. When I attempted the exchange, I was told I was outside of the return window. I could understand this logic if the item was no longer stocked, but they literally had the same item and size on the rack. There wasn't even an apology for leaving the security tag on them preventing me from even wearing the pants without me driving 20 miles to correct their mistake. Just rude excuses of "checks and balances" from the incompetent manager who was also publicly rude to the cashier before she just walked away from me. Isn't an exchange a "check and balance" of your inventory? Horrible customer service

I highly recommend the drive out from neighboring areas to visit for a tune up and binding mount! This whole shop is has a great selection, but you'll have to catch sales in order to find the best deals in town. I love the placement of the winter sports-themed cafe in the same building as well. I treated myself to a nice cappuccino during my visit.

It was pretty quiet in there, so we had the place to ourselves. Clean, brightly lit, and well organized. I would encourage all skiers/snowboarders to shop here. The item I bought didn't have the highest-tech material but I didn't *need* the highest-tech material. Overall it's solid quality and a good value; comfortable, has every pocket you'd want (with zippers) and is performing well so far.

We visited Volcom Outlet while shopping around North Bend, and the selection was fine. They had…read moreboth men and women's apparel here, as well as some accessories like hats, belts, etc. When we visited, the store was super quiet, as we were the only ones there. The employee was at the front register on his phone the entire time, which we didn't really mind. We were able to bring our dog in, so glad to know it's dog-friendly. Overall, the women's apparel isn't as much as the men's. It wasn't my ideal place for when I was looking for some shorts and sun dresses. My boyfriend had more to choose from though, yet the prices were slightly discounted. Not a bad store, but not the best selection of Volcom.

I can come in part in hand and they still manage to order the wrong parts. They look irritated, they click on parts like they are all-knowing without asking the questions ON THE SCREEN. I am leaving 5 stars bc I think the older gentleman noticed I knew what I was talking about and cracked jokes with me while ordering the right parts. I hope the character rubs off on the young "pepper is spicy" men here and they can learn about cars that aren't stock and stop letting a computer tell you what's what.

Will definitely return…read more This is an outlet store and there's a variety of items for all seasons of shoes plus purses and accessories for men and women. I didn't see any kids shoes but they may carry them. Had a great sale on sandals, buy one get one free. Then the sales girl came over and told a few of us there was a computer glitch so the shoes would be even cheaper. $60 sandals on sale for half and with the bug, now 2 pair with tax were ringing up for only $27! I got two pairs of extra comfortable deluxe flip flops for this price. The sales girl was really cool and friendly beyond this. Saw some rocking rain boots for $50, normally $160, and the classic loafers. Coming back in the fall when the weather changes.
