Providing them two of five stars because they did a great job altering a suit for me months back…read more This is a cash only business though they have a square reader / device at the register (odd isn't it?). I'd normally tell my spouse she's mistaken or who knows what's happening on the other side, but after what I've observed and hearing it from my kids, something is wrong with the owners here. TLDR to the business, I'd suggest changing your tone and customer service, keep it at the same level of professionalism as your alterations. Strike 1 - They've lost a few stars because their customer service is sub par and I thought it was a fluke (from the first visit). This is the type of business that feels they're entitled to be rude and you need them... Strike 2 - My spouse and kids swung by today to get a recommendation on an alteration. The owner was rude from the beginning, complaining about not being able to have an alteration ready by next Thursday as it's a holiday weekend. A no, not enough time, would have sufficed rather than a snappy response. Strike 3 - There was also a gentleman with a cane that walked in with their hands full and struggled to open the door and move closer inside. As such, the door was as briefly kept open to help him in and the owner complained about keeping the doors open. I understand, electric rates are sky high. But any observant owner would have noticed that speed was not the gentleman's gift at that age and would have offered to grab the clothes from him and helped him in. The icing on the cake is being rude to a kid. If a kid says thank you as they leave, don't ignore them. Where are your collective manners? Fortunately, they found a place on broadway st in salem nh that delivered great service. If you're a repeat customer, perhaps things are great for you. Net new customer, not so sure....

If I could give more than five stars I would!…read more I found Lynn's Perfect Stitches from the preferred seamstress list given to my by my bridal shop. So of course, I turned to Yelp to find my best options. There was a shop in Medford, MA in my hometown, but based on Lynn's good reviews I decided to trek all the way to North Andover. If you are coming from the 93, be prepared to drive through a national forest (pretty cool and calming to be honest) to get here, but trust me... it's worth your trip. Lynn does a FANTASTIC job on alternations. She listened to what I wanted, gave advice and suggestions (and yes, she knows her stuff) but ultimately what made me love her the most was how easy she was to work with. I went 4x to try my dress and towards the end I made a very late decision to take out the push up part of my bust (sorry TMI!) and she worked with me and even went in early two days later so I could try it on before I left for my wedding. I cannot say I was the easiest bride, but I can say she was ALWAYS so pleasant to work with. There are comments below about her price points, while I will say wedding dress or formal dress alternations are NOT cheap, it really matters with quality of the alterations. Wedding dresses are not "one size fits all" in fact mine was way too big for me and Lynn did a perfect job to get my dress to flatter my body type. So in the end I was and still am willing to pay $ for good alternations and exceptional customer service. The comments I got on how fitted my dress was were insurmountable and I truly felt like a beautiful bride on my wedding day. Other plus' about her shop are that it's off the Turnpike in North Andover, not too far from 93 and there is always plenty of parking. I drove to see Lynn from Medford and it wasn't that bad of a ride. Definitely call to make an appointment, you won't regret it!
