They do have a website but it's not the best so always best to come on by or even call if you have something in mind.

When you…read morestep inside the store, you can see the Marie Antoinette-era/boudoir-inspired decor, from the colors, the furniture, as well as the frilly/girly tops, sweaters, and dresses. I especially liked their tops, as I am a huge fan of ruffles - the cut and the design is really pretty and would be great with a sweater/cardigan ensemble. I purchased a really cute bag from Matt & Nat here, a Montreal-based vegan line of purses - the store had a really nice selection and a variety, so check them out. Any purchases come with a lovely reusable store bag, so that was super awesome! Service was very friendly - Catherine was all smiles and very accommodating and made sure that I found everything that I was looking for! :D +ask for Catherine :D +great selection of Matt & Nat vegan line +Marie Antoinette-inspired designs +located off of St. Catherine, across from Kazu

Breastfeeding, in case you haven't experienced this, can be surprisingly ridiculously hard and complicated and often painful and uniquely infuriating. I've taken advantage of their incredible kind service and free advice on many occasions and also attended classes in the private back room for various baby things. And bought some great bras and sustainable bamboo sweatshirts their too! The baked goods and food served here is pretty basic but tasty, and the soy latte was really great! Really though, everything they sell here is to support the free wealth of information they provide all the time, and the incredibly welcoming homebase they provide to young parents. I'm definitely a fan.

Melons & Clementines is a boutique specializing in everything to do with breastfeeding. I went…read morethere in search of a good-quality nursing bra, and I was able to select from a very wide range of styles in a size that I had a hard time finding in other stores. There is also maternity clothing, nursing clothing (I found a great dress on the clearance rack that I wore on the day we brought our baby home from the hospital), kangaroo clothing, baby carriers, nursing cushions, breast pump sales and rentals, ... There are workshops for pregnant women, breastfeeding women, baby massage, baby wearing, baby sign language, ... You can also make a one-on-one appointment with a certified lactation consultant (IBCLC) if you need help with breastfeeding. There is a café so you can take your baby, have a latté, and hang out while you breastfeed in a welcoming environment. I received friendly, knowledgeable service in both official languages. My only beef was that the espresso machine was out of service when I visited. No matter. I found an ice cream shop across the street.

I was hoping to find some good deals, and while the deals and discounts did seem great (stacked discounts of i believe 30% off of already sale-tagged item prices) - I personally found the selection of items to be lacking. I tried on a few pieces of clothing, but none of them were quite the right fit for me, which I did not expect. I have trouble finding clothes that fit well, but with New Balance I can usually find *something* that is nice, stylish, and suits me well. On this day, however, I left empty handed...though they seemed to have plenty of buyers and back-to-school shoppers while I was there. I don't think I would personally go out of my way to go back to this location, as there wasn't as much clothing as I hoped there would be and the store was a bit smaller than New Balance stores I've been to in the past. Ultimately: not for me, but I would still recommend it to others people if they're in the area as the prices were great.

With covid happening, shopping options have definitely been limited but if you need your…read moregirly-stuff undergarments, shapewear bathing suits, bikinis, beach cover-ups, pyjamas and night robes, the La Vie En Rose outlet on Wellington in Verdun has got you covered for basics. In fact I have to admit, their swimwear collection is pretty darn good and at great prices too. They've got one-pieces, monokinis, bikinis, tankinis sold in separates so you can figure out what style and coverage of top or bottom you're looking for. As for the undergarments, this isn't La Perla or Agent Provacateur so don't expect the high end, raunchy stuff here but for everyday basics, they've got plenty.

Ended up leaving with a perfect corset (they only had 4-6 options that I saw) for $20.

I…read morebought a dress here just two days ago, wore it once in the store and once at home that same night, and went back today to return it. At the time of purchase, I was told returns would be "of course" accepted--no conditions mentioned, just a smile. Yet when I came back, they refused, pointing out "stains" I hadn't even noticed when buying it. I feel completely tricked and betrayed. Either they sold me a faulty dress or used this as an excuse to deny the return. At this point, it's not even about the money! It's the dishonesty and disrespect that's outrageous. For a store selling expensive "quality" items, this is unacceptable. I will never shop here again.

However I was so impressed with the online experience I had to write a review anyways. So first I was very excited that the dress I was interested in was available in plus sizes - i used the sizing chart and because I was inbetween I sized up deciding if I needed to I would get it altered. if I didn't like it I could send it back because they have a solid return policy. I ordered the dress on a Thursday morning, paid for standard shipping and assumed it would arrive sometime next week since I live in Alberta. Imagine my shock when it arrived the NEXT DAY. Opened it up and everything was beautifully wrapped in ribbon with a beautiful note to boot. The dress is gorgeous - it will definitely need some hemming but I could not be more thrilled. I 100% will be buying from here again.

I asked if I could get a new one as she rolled her eyes and walked away to get a brand new one. again the prices are good, just don't have high expectation for customer service.

I was psyched when they opened a store next to my company's office in NY, but bummed to discover they didn't have a kids selection. While in Montreal I was determined to find a Joe Fresh with a kids department, especially since the regular womans clothing won't fit my big belly these days. Joe- us pregnos would love a maternity line! This Joe Fresh isn't in the supermarket, but has it's own store connected to it. Personally I like that better since it seems a bit strange to me to shop for clothes while shopping for groceries. It's a beautiful space and most importantly they have a HUGE kids selection. I had only about 45 minutes until I had to leave for the airport (I literally was rolling my suitcase around the store) and filled my arms with tons of clothes for my little girl at home, as well as my baby boy on the way. Thank goodness I had just had my gender revealing ultrasound just days before stepping into this Joe Fresh. The total came to about $300 for what seemed was an entire fall/winter wardrobe for both kids. I had a bit of a paranoid moment when my VISA didn't go thru and they don't take AMEX. Canada doesn't seem to want to take my money! Fortunately, my Canadian coworker came thru for me and put the clothes on her credit card...and I wrote her a check. I'm still not sure how I fit all the new clothes in my suitcase, but it helps that clothes for toddlers and newborns are extremely small. Visiting this store was one of the highlights of my fabulous weekend in Montreal. I really do hope they open a store in Chicago one of these days and when they do I hope Joe remembers to add a kids department.

I found the inside quite dark. I love how big the changing rooms are though and there's never many people shopping at once, sales girls don't hassle you so you can browse through at your own pace. Joe Fresh has some really colorful and fashionable designs however in the past couple years I've noticed a drastic change in the quality of their clothing. The fabrics are too thin and cheap looking. They used to have basic tees and tank tops that would withstand many washes but now they get stretched out too easily and don't seem to last. The styles and prices remind me of H&M, only, the fit is a little too loose and not made for the tall and thin. Pants are always short for me. My favorite items are from their sleepwear and lounge collection, and I particularly like their clearance aisle - you can always find nice pieces for less than 10 bucks. My bf got a pair of watermelon red cargo shorts for 7$ and I got pjs for 5$. What a steal!
