I was really happy with the fact the store wasn't too busy and we were able to social distance very easily.

However, recently, one of my old high school classmates posted a lovely sweater on her Facebook and she told me that it was from Joe Fresh. And since I was on a break at work the other day, I decided to go ahead and give it a go to see if there was anything cute. OH MY GOSH. There are animal shirts! Shirts with cats on them, sweaters with french bulldogs, tees with birds, silk dresses with cute cats...zomg!!! It was awesome. Their stuff is really cute! And at an insanely reasonable price. I bought 2 sweaters for $29 each. In terms of quality, they weren't bad at all. I'm sure that this stuff is not meant to last more than a season but it will be a fun season while it lasts! :) Will definitely come back to find some cute finds!

The staff were very helpful, gave good advice and recommendations. They have a good amount of choice and gear. I'd say if you didn't know exactly what you wanted while you may not be lost, its not easy peasy. Their prices are competitive with other places and even the large box stores. The one thing I find could use a bit of improvement was ability to get help. They seemed busy that it's tough getting help. They should notice the lost customers immediately. But when you do get help, they devote their attention to you and don't get distracted easily.

The staff were absolutely friendly, and since this was my first time owning a pair of skates (bought second-hand elsewhere), the staff member chatted with me about how to care for them and keep them well maintained. No upselling, just sharing their expertise. They did a great job with the sharpening and it only cost me $9 for each pair. Will continue coming here for future sharpening.

After much anticipation, I finally visited this store. Failed to hold up to my expectations even…read morefor a clearance outlet. The store was filled with overpriced, at least three seasons old merchandise, and had a shameful collection of shoes (a few pairs here and there) and technically no accessories. You can buy the same merchandise at a regular talbots at a much cheaper price at the end of the season sales events. Basically it wasn't worth the trip. The staff were ok, seemed to be friendly, but they really need to work on filling the store with a larger collection of clothing, shoes, and accessories. Will I return: Maybe, but only once a year to test my luck.

Ever since I got my smoker over 2 years ago Dickson's has been my go-to for barbecue supplies…read morewhether it be charcoal, wood or other accessories. As I write this we are still dealing with the covid-19 pandemic, and as a result non-essential stores are forced to take other measures to service their customers such as online ordering and delivering via a third-party delivery service. Approximately two weeks ago I placed an order for some items which, to this date had not been delivered. Absolutely not the fault of Dickson's BBQ Center. After several Communications with the delivery company both on my part and on Dickson's part, they personally made sure that not only did I get what I ordered but I got a little more because of the inconvenience caused, and the items are now in my possession. These guys are doing a tremendous job under extremely difficult circumstances and at the very least they deserve a glowing review. Their customer service really is second to none. Great job, all of you!

Great selection, and when they didn't have what I wanted they brought it in for me. You can buy the same equipment at other stores, but this place will make sure you are happy with what you buy, and will take good care of you afterwards. Whenever I am asked about where to buy a barbecue (and I am asked a lot), this is where I send people.

It's all about the staff at this store…read more They are friendly, knowledgeable and fair. Needed to regear my kiddo for skating season and they were fantastic. Offering up used or new options and walkingbua through pros and cons of different models. Very helpful and easy going, with stock that seems to turn over very very fast ( and 3 times in days looking for items and there were new options available on each visit!) A bit hidden off the main street but worth the drive Highly recommend checking them out for kiddo gear as they grow out of sizes at. a rapid rate!

This should be your first stop if you would like to experiment with any kind of sport since the staff is knowledgeable and used to dealing with first timers. Silly questions won't bother them, they are accustomed to it. Prices are very reasonable and they take trade-ins of your old gear. At least they will take their used gear back the next day or the next season if you want to trade up or get a different size. Then you will only pay the difference and help support the store with renewed stock, a very cool idea! So there you go - no excuses when someone says, 'Let's go skating!'

Fast forward 30 years... last week, I found myself in their Markham location with my son who is just starting out in his train hobby. Since we're new to trains, we have no idea what we're doing but the staff were very patient and kind to us. They were welcoming & friendly and didn't blow us off. They took the time to explain some key things to us (which are probably really simple to them, but again, we are clueless!). They also helped us figure out if our used parts would work and pointed us towards small but important items we would need to be successful. I felt like they really cared about starting a newbie out right. We can't thank the staff enough for their kindness. We arrived at their store completely "blank" and left with great knowledge and excitement. THANK YOU!

The rating is for George's Trains customer service for repairs…read more This is my first interaction with George's Trains. They were recommended to me by Credit Valley Railway in Mississauga (a competitor) as the place to take Lionel products for repair. I had bought a Lionel Polar Express train set in December 2018 to have at our place for our grandchildren to play with when they visited. Although I like trains, I have never been in a position to have a set, but decided to take the plunge for our grandchildren. Within a year, the train stopped being controlled by its remote control. To the best of my knowledge there is not an other way to control the train, other than by the remote. I took the locomotive and tender to George's Trains on December 15th, 2019 for repairs. I asked if the repairs could be done by Christmas and they said "no". Fair enough. It was an inquiry, not a request or demand. Two calls by me over the next eight weeks, since drop off to George's, finally resulted in the comment that "8 weeks is not unusual in this business". (Full disclosure - they send this particular type of train out to a third party for repairs; they do not do repairs to this particular Lionel product themselves.) Again, fair enough, but why could that information not be given out at the time I dropped off the equipment? Further comments from the staff person I talked to was that they are "absolutely swamped" and they have no idea of when repairs to my set would be done. The person I talked to was reluctant to call the third party repair place to get information for me because if they did that for everyone, it would "slow down their business so that nothing else would get done". Aside from the seeming lack of communication or customer service, I am having a tough time deciding if the original cost of the train set should be written off as a sunk cost and give up the idea that having a train set for our grandchildren is worth it.
