Bruno, our coordinator, was punctual, friendly, helpful, and fun. The administrative work beforehand was simple, and all we had to do was provide space. This was a great party, tons of fun, and great even for kids who are not into soccer--most of the girls had more fun running each other over and bouncing around than anything to do with soccer. Thanks NEBS!

We LOVE Gary Wood and the folks at Belmont Wheelworks. We met when my son (who has Cerebral Palsy…read morefrom a stroke in utero) was in his first bike race-- Gary helped us adjust our bike before the race. My son bit the bug on bicycling and when he was ready for a new bike, Gary helped us find the perfect bike, making some accessibility modifications like switching the brake sides to favor my son's stronger side, etc. I got my Stumpjumper here 20 years ago and Belmont Wheelworks keeps on delivering because of the people!

Here's a collection of my terrible experiences at Wheel Works:…read more Story #1: Took a bike in to get an insurance write up for estimated cost of repair/replacement (my biked was pretty much totaled). They said the estimated time for this would be around 5 days. After 10 days of them not contacting me, I called them. They said the write up was ready so I went to shop only for them to tell me it is not ready and to come back in a couple days. When I went back, the person who did the write up lost the paper and we had to go back AGAIN for a new paper. A 5 day simple write up turned into a 3 week back and fourth with this shop (and 3 weeks with no bike which is my main form of transportation). Story #2: I asked for 2 tubes for my bike and they gave me 2 different sized tubes BOTH OF WHICH WERE NOT THE CORRECT TUBE. Story #3: I asked for a tube for my bike and I gave them the model (which they sold to me). The person asked me what size it is which I forgot. So he replied "well I don't know that bike go figure that out yourself" (while he was at a functioning computer in which he could have looked it up for me). Story #4: I also had a kick stand repair after it fell off (my bike has a specialize built in kickstand) and it fell off again after 2 rides.

I am really confused about this sport club. It is located in a wealthy town and they charge $100 a…read moremonth for membership and based on that you expecting a certain level of service. At least you expect this place to be clean. However that is not the experience I had. I came at 2 pm and a first thing I run into is a bag full of trash in the middle of locker room. Between shower, sauna and clothes change I've spent 30 min there and trash was there for all the time. Next surprise was in steam room where I run into a dirt and a dead bug in the middle of the room. Showers were also extremely dirty and faucets barely sprinkle any water. I don't think I would ever go back to that club and would not recommend it to anyone else who values sanitary norms and hopes to get money/service ratio

I've been going to Longfellow for 40 years or so since I was a kid and played tennis there. It's a…read moregreat place. For starters, it's a great group of people working there. The group health classes are also excellent - I'm partial to the yoga classes which come with the membership. The workout equipment is solid and often being upgraded. I love the pool and hot tub, and the sauna and steam room are great. I'd like it if they provided towels, but, overall, it's got what we need. I also really appreciate Longfellow's commitment to environmental sustainability. Solar everything, a pool that uses less chemicals, etc... Do a day pass and make up your own mind and enjoy.

This review is for Longfellow Junior and Kids tennis in Natick and Wayland. Absolutely worst kids…read moretennis programs you can find. Unjustifiably expensive and very unprofessionally run. The teaching stuff is disappointing and lazy. From my observations instead of teaching kids they prefer to socialize, eat and talk on the phone instead of actually teaching kids. There is one tennis pro in Wayland and one in Natick locations that actually enjoy working with kids, but the rest are just there killing time. It is weird as you see few active kids on one court with a teacher moving around and hitting balls and then 3-4 other courts with kids are in slow motion with sleepy teachers trying to move as slow as possible and do as little as they can get away with. Before you enroll your child they push hard with all wonderful things that they supposedly offer, but after they get your money nothing is available. Longfellow stuff promised that additional private lessons will be available anytime and each student will have additional weekly play-match time with other kids. After multiple inquires to schedule a paid private lessons Longfellow stuff suggested to look for additional lessons elsewhere as they were too busy to offer private lessons. This is just sad and at the same time hilarious as you would expect your child to learn how to play tennis when you enroll them in the program in the tennis club. What are they actually doing there if they have to suggest to go elsewhere to learn how to play while your child is enrolled in their program!? Play-match time was not available at all as they kicked my child out in tears as apparently there was no one to play with and never offered play-match again. The front desk does not have any information regarding tennis and no one knows anything. Any question to the pro is immediately brushed off as they are always running to the next class and you are not important to them. They are never in their office and no information regarding playtime, cancellations, makeup or anything else is posted anywhere. There was a number of cancellations due to snow storms and they never offered make up classes. No refunds were issued. After the first session the pro gave my child an evaluation form with about 40 different categories. All of these were market as the lowest possible. Basically my child did nothing and learned nothing. After this was brought up to the management the club claimed that it was a mistake, but the pro never apologized or gave an appropriate evaluation. I strongly feel that if the child did not learn anything this is a pro's fault. If you don't want to damage your child's self-esteem and confidence avoid Longfellow at all costs. After the second sessions was over the club failed to provide any evaluation to my child and no one cared to reach out and offer any information regarding how the child did and what to do next. I tried to reach out to the owner of the club and he is absolutely arrogant and delusional as he does not think his stuff does anything wrong and even attempts to humiliate you. The club failed to provide the services they promised and owes a refund that the club refuses to return. It feels that owner knows well what takes place and this program is a clever way to drain the money out of the parents who are willing to do anything for their kids. This is certainly not a place I would recommend for learning tennis. After t Longfellow tennis I hired a tennis pro who was stunned and did not even believe that my child attended Longfellow. Apparently he was not even shown how to hold a tennis racket... Seek tennis lessons elsewhere! I wish I could give them zero start. They really don't deserve even one star! They just steal your money!

Just today I walked into the Route 9 shop with a broken/jammed BOA dial on my shoe. I was looking for a repair kit, which I wasn't really expecting them to carry but I was taking a shot in the dark because ordering one from BOA would have taken about 10 days and I wanted to use the shoe this weekend, if it was possible. Landry's didn't carry the specific repair kit that I needed, which was fine because it's pretty obscure, so I resigned myself to not being able to use my shoe for a while. But the guy I was dealing with in the shop ended up fixing my shoe right in front of me himself using the world's smallest hex wrench in about 120 seconds. I asked him what I owed him and he said, "nothing." He even gave me the wrench! I was so stoked that my dial problem was solved that I forgot the guy's name. But he was a big dude, with long hair, glasses and he was wearing flip-flops lol. ‍ Anyway, thanks to him, my weekend is looking up!
