A favorite on the Oxford Square. There's a reason why it's a cornerstone business in Oxford.

I have been in Neilson's several times while in Oxford. This time I needed some shirts and went in to see what they had. Summer shirts were on sale so I got a few. The service was good as was the selection which was broad. I picked up a brochure while there that tells the history of the store. There aren't many that have lasted since 1839 so they know how to do business in their market. read more

Do not buy jewelry from here if they tell you it's real. It's a scam. I bought a Chanel necklace from here a year and a half ago and made sure to ask if it was real Chanel. The lady helping me said it was real vintage Chanel with real gold with a real gold chain that wasn't original to the necklace but she assured me that the pendant was real Chanel. I wanted to sell it recently so I took it to a pawn shop. Turns out it's completely fake. No gold at all and not real Chanel. I paid $150 before tax which is a great deal if it were real but unfortunately it's not and I can get the same necklace on Aliexpress for $5. I do not think the lady helping me knew that it was fake but what upset me is that I went back and spoke to an older gentleman who seemed to be either the manager or the owner to tell him the situation and he was quite rude even though I came to them very kindly and told me that they have never sold something like this. But I bought my necklace from here. He seemed very defensive right off the bat which gives me the impression that this has happened before. There were multiple other Chanel pieces when I bought mine so others have bought fake jewelry from here at a very high price for fakes. The employees here are very nice but someone in charge is trying to scam people like me who don't know any better. Do not trust them because they won't help you afterwards. If anyone else has experienced this, please reach out to me because this was very illegal read more

Neilson's has been here forever, literally since 1839. I am sure it looked differently back then. Today and for the last several decades that I can remember, it occupies 1/2 of one side of the Square in Oxford and always looks like it was recently painted and attractively fresh. It is one of those department stores that you rarely see anymore, especially in small towns like Oxford. It's not a chain like Macy's or Dillards but a one store entity. And if a store like this would still exist, it should exist in Oxford. It is an upscale department store with upscale prices. The people who work here are schooled in old time customer service with that southern flair. Go in and browse and you will see what I mean. Yes, prices are high. They probably have to be for this place to stay in business and operate in a very expensive location. I hope it stays around for a long time. The Square wouldn't be the same without it. read more

the worker Nicole was so sweet I was looking for my clothes for my niece and was so helpful and kind

Way over priced. Carries Polo and vineyard vines mostly. Its been around since the 1840's and is the cornerstone of the square but at those prices you would be better off shopping online read more

I really like this store. Their clothing and shoe selection for the whole family is wonderful, and their sales clerks are friendly and helpful. They also have a nice selection of gifts. read more

The clothes at Neilson's are more expensive than I usually go for, but when they have their annual sale I've found a few really good buys. I really only every buy things from them on sale. The store has a good personality which comes from a slightly snooty Southern attitude that can somehow still be charming. They sell a little bit of every kind of clothing (except for gowns, for that you'd probably want Classy Creations, also on the Square) for women, men, and children. They have clothes for both younger sorority types and older "women who lunch", so whether you're currently attending Ole Miss to secure a husband or attended Ole Miss to secure a husband 30 years ago, you'll find something you need. read more

Worst customer service ever . Not friendly at all... needed an item and they acted like I was a burden. The older women that works in the undergarment department had zero personality and was getting frustrated helping me read more

I do most of my shopping at Neilsons when in Oxford. They have stylish clothing.

lovely store! They have a little bit of everything & it's all so unique. A kind, down-to-earth sales staff to match. So nice to shop in a local, southern store. read more
