I love coming to the LLBean outlet stores, but don't do it often enough! The staff are incredibly…read morefriendly - we were greeted by Bruce who instantly had us smiling and was quick with a joke before sending us on our way to shop. I think we all know how pricey Bean's can be. Which is why we hit the sales when they come, every time. I saw such cute sweaters and jackets, and the keychains all the girlies were crazy for last summer. Those keychains are EXPENSIVE though - $26 for a small charm and loop of cord? Crazy if you ask me. I snagged one of the Three Potato Four keychains for $11, which I thought was reasonable. Every staff member we met was so incredibly friendly, so even if you don't buy anything, just browsing is still fun. They ask if you need help, wish you good morning, but it doesn't feel too constant which can sometimes happen elsewhere.

I used to be OBSESSED with the L.L. Bean backpacks & having the initials engraved hahaha. The…read morebackpacks were great! I actually still have the backpack somewhere at home & it held up well... 14 years later. Super spacious & held all of the many textbooks I used to have to carry around as a kid, with EASE. I honestly still have so much love for the brand & wear my shearling-lined Bean boots every winter, as well as their wicked good moccasins! I believe I had gotten the bean boots as a gift ALMOST 10 years ago and never thought about replacing them because to this day, they still look brand new! Very comfortable & WARM. Anyways, I absolutely love visiting L.L Bean in Freeport, ME & btw, you have to visit all their stores in this campus. They have their Flagship store, this outlet store, & speciality stores (home, fishing, biking, & ski gear).

The brand is definitely on the more expensive side but they've got great quality items & their outerwear (jackets, etc) seem to be well made, would be very warm for New England winters. Very organized & clean store. The staff were also kind and helpful! Would come back again ;)

Super cute, I've seen the bags but never in person, a brick and mortar. They have their signature…read morebags from mini to full size rucks! Holy, i never realized the market price on this brand. The square bags don't seem to comfortable to me but it looks super cute. Their more expensive bags are actually for utility use and rucking. They have snow gear, waterproof thermal winter coats and pants. The staff was attentive and checked on you if you needed help with no pressure sales!

This store has two floors, first floor is mostly women's and second floor houses the men's apparel, children's, and items w/ additional discount. Workers are pretty helpful from what I've experienced and always super kind. They seem to have good inventory of all sizes, which is why I LOVE COMING HERE! Highly recommend!

They have women's on first floor, then up the stairs is a mix with backpacks and snow pants etc and they even had Denali fleeces. The further room upstairs is the men's section. This location has a stock of triclimates, Parkas, wind jackets, rain jackets... casual fit jackets hoodies and more. We managed to snag two light jackets on the way out. Great deals! Better than TNF outlets closer to home.

Horrible customer service and return policy, go somewhere else. Purchased handbag on a Saturday…read morenight, price was cheaper Sunday AM, contacted customer service, they could not access the order and put in a claim ticket. Item shipped before any response to claim, now $10 to return plus all of the hassle, never again, lots better companies out there. I feel like the no access to order and delay were a very intentional way of screwing the customer.

No one answers the phone so there is no way to confirm if they are in fact open on any day at all. Such a disappointment. We had made a day of this with my aging parents, took the train into Freeport. After reading reviews I see they have had this issue going on over 2 years. What a joke. I have always been a loyal D&B buyer but this has me second guessing myself. Very bad service, the phone says our call is important but try again later. Horrible service and clearly D & B doesn't care.

What this has become over the year's, I am unsure. This used to have a lot of great outlets, but…read morenow they are few and far between. Why? LL Bean is why. Pretty soon the town will be slowly absorbed by the mega giant, in a similar way to the local Great Desert of Maine. Not that I enjoyed shopping here but the town is going the way of the shopping mall. It is an ancient relic of the past and the town is dominated by the ever-growing monolith that is LL Bean. Nothing to see here folks. just keep driving.

The only reason we hit these stores is because we were at the LL Bean campus and they were…read moreliterally right there!

I can usually find a lot of basic clothing at this outlet and tend to buy quite a bit each time I go. The service is usually nonexistent until they realize I'm going to spend a lot. I find that super frustrating but i still go! Unlike other outlets, there's usually all sizes and colors available of whatever is there. The petites section is extensive. They also have accessories for sale right when you come in. I don't see shoes often.

They have women's and men's clothes as well as children's, I just wish VV had plus sizes. Not the fault of this shop though.

Nice place to get a good deal on some nice clothes, and nice staff. Stop in when you're in Freeport!

First Vineyard Vines store whether it is retail or outlet where the employees have an "I'm better…read morethan your mentality." Is it because of the location because honestly I have been in stores in much more populous and ritzy areas where the employees would bend over backwards to help. Took the $300+ worth of items and left them on a table and walked out. First time I have EVER been into a VV store and not purchased at least one item. In addition, retail items can't be returned to an outlet store as I was informed of that with an attitude as well.
