We didn't know what to expect when walking into Now You're Cooking. We love "cooking" stores, but…read morethey're usually filled with overpriced items that can be found at a MUCH cheaper price online. This place was different -- they had so many kitchen gadgets at every price point imaginable, and they had so many cool items that you could not find online (or it would be more expensive). We were surprised by the size of the store. It's huge! If they don't have what you're looking for... then you probably don't need it. The staff was friendly and welcoming. We bought a book and a cheese grater that put our previous one to shame. We can't wait to return again when visiting Bath.

We needed a tissue holder and got one of the ones they had. I also got some sparkling sugar for baking. I'm pretty used to their prices so that's not new. I understand they have to pay rent so I'm happy to support a specialty store like them. Service is as good as the Scarborough location. I like the layout of this store better though.

To those who don't know, they also have samples of olive oil right in this location. I prefer the Scarborough location since they have their own parking spaces.

I wish they still sell chocolate bars from Davao, Philippines!

I enjoyed perusing the aisles and displays to look for things I didn't even know I needed. There's a fine line between 'want' and 'need' and that line is easily erased here. The prices are the first thing you'll notice. While they are not necessarily "high" for quality items and equipment, they are a little on the pricier side. Perhaps that's unfair to say since all the Le Creuset stuff is placed right in the front of the store. I did end up getting some charming plates (I already have the perfect dish in mind) and a few other little gadgets that I decided I ultimately "needed". They are friendly here. Though I did not ask for assistance personally, I overheard someone else ask one of the gents working there about the difference between the cheaper and more expensive pans and he was quite thorough with his layman's response. I love stores like this but somehow I felt that they had just a little bit less variety than I would have liked. They do seem to favor a handful of brands, leaving options pretty minimal. Still, it is a big space and the selection/quality decimates a place like Target or BB&B. Yes. I'm sure I'll return someday soon.

I never met a kitchen gadget I didn't like. On a…read morepost-lunch stroll around downtown Portsmouth my companion wanted to go in for a look, and the minute I saw the wall-length display of kitchen gadgets I was hooked. A few things I already had (extensive Oxo products which I swear by, graters, zesters, spatulas, peelers, ice cube trays, I could go on). I resisted the temptation to buy the handy long-handled spoon that would be perfect for scraping the bottoms of jam or peanut butter jars. My companion and I giggled over a couple of "must haves"--unicorn shaped ice cubes anyone?--but the display was impressive. But kitchen gadgets are just a start. Bowls, knives (I now know what a ceramic knife is), pots, pans, and items better described by others here. it reminded me of a Sur La Table or Williams Sonoma. Just when I thought I was going to get out of there without a purchase, I discovered the perfect pasta/ramen bowl (pictured) to replace one I had recently broken. Durned you, LeRoux Kitchen!!!

That being said, I recently bought a couple containers that didn't end up working for my space and returned them the next day after using them for storing grains. The return was refused because of that and they were deemed unsellable despite the condition of the product being unchanged. On Independent Restaurant Supply's website they claim a 20% restocking fee on merchandise returns as their policy but seem to leave out any other clarification on their strict return policy in-store or on the website. Word of warning to future buyers to be 100% sure about your purchase before buying here as you will most likely be stuck with it if it's in any way used and according to their policy if it's untouched you'll still only get that 80% return

Most of the parking is located to the side of the store. The gas line always seems to be long and it's because of the layout in my opinion. I'm glad to see so many people shop and get gas here, as I don't want this location to close. The prices were fair prices and still makes the membership worth it. The staff seemed very tired, but nice enough. The selection is decent. We found what we needed. If we are in the area, we will continue to go here. We would not go out of our way.
