Chesapeake East is a charming little store in Downtown Salisbury. A great place to have some fun,…read morepaint pottery, and get the creative juices flowing! This places sells many house hold decorative items (painted ceramics, dishes, sculptural figures) a lot of it is pretty cute and I believe it is all handmade by the owner of this store. There is a small cafe attached to the store but it has very limited hours and I have never been while it was open. The best part of all is that they have a large selection of unpainted ceramics that you can paint your self right there!!! You only have to pay for the piece of blank ceramic that you would like to paint and most of them are very fairly priced ($5-$25 depending on size). The paint is free, glazing and firing is free. (glazing and firing takes one day so you will have to pick up your item the following day) The room that is designated for painting is very large and has lots of table space so it is great for large or small parties. The owner is so sweet, plays music for you, and makes you feel right at home. I went here for my birthday and my friends and I all had a blast. We made vases, coffee mugs, candy dishes, plates.... They have anything you can think of!

When I brought it back to return it, they were out of the one I was returning- kinda ruining my project but I found something that would work. The staff was incredibly rude about my return the lady at the fabric counter was arguing how was she supposed to know what I got after I gave her my receipt for some reason. The lady at checkout said she didn't know what was going on with my receipt and wanted us to give her the faulty fabric when the lady at the fabric counter had taken it. Then the manager was called and she was just rude in general no apologies about it or any friendliness whatsoever from any of them. It was only my second time at that hobby lobby. I don't plan on returning - Dover is worth the drive I guess.

They should organize them by publisher (DC, marvel, vertigo, image comics, etc). But unfortunately it was chaotic and unorganized. I know customers can mess up the books but they can have at least one worker in charge of book organizing. I love the deals on the energy drinks I got before. Like the reign and toxic waste energy drinks. I do wish their site and app would allow for buying books and other products online, but over all aside from the books issues I like Ollie's and their worker's are very friendly from my experience. Will go again.

The price was ridiculous to begin with, but she really wanted it for our pool house and it was a fabulous find. The owner said they would deliver it and such, so we were super pleased with them. However, my mother returned to the store about a month later--so this past week--to do some more shopping with our family friends. A woman, who I assume is the owner, noticed our family friend showing the sign to her daughter. The owner walked over to them and started discussing who purchased it--so, my mother. The woman apparently was calling my mother a "crazy" woman, she had told her partner (?unsure of the relationship between the two) to throw out a ridiculous price with the hopes of deterring my mother from purchasing the item. The reason for it being because they didn't want to sell it yet. Low and behold, my mother is standing right there, listening to this woman bad-mouth her, call her names, and other horrific items. I am pleased to say my mother defended herself and her purchase, which I'm sure gave her some sense of victory. At the end of the day. This is a great store. The management, however, could care less about their customers--to the point that they go out of their way to speak unbelievably poorly about them. Thankfully, my mother was standing right there. Suggestions? First of all, tell someone something isn't for sale if you do not want to sell it. It is a geographic area that houses many wealth individuals that will pay those prices for items they truly want. Secondly, the customer should be your main priority. If you are upset because a customer bought something from your store that YOU GAVE THEM A QUOTE ON, then there is a real issue that needs to be addressed--personally and for the store. If you are going out of your way to speak poorly of a loyal customer, then that is a sure fire way to receive reviews such as mine. Like I said, great store, plenty of great pieces. However, that aspect is completely minimized if management is horrific. Do better. Me and my family are appalled.
