We had such a great experience coming to the Solow Sports at the National Tennis Center. I can't…read moreeven begin to explain how great and the complete opposite experience we had coming here than what we endured at the two Wilson stores. Growing up playing tennis in NYC, I always encounter not enough information gets funneled out or people wanting to share resources. So this right here is for all my first timers. Allow me to give you all necessary information so you don't get deterred. By car, you would have to go to parking B, usually closest to the train and you know you're on the right path. By train, it's literally down the platform and walk towards the Chase building towards the right of the box office window. There's a small gate where you would enter the Chase building, pass the front desk, into a small lounge and you would find the store. First, they rarely pick up their phones. It's a small shop, and understand why they probably won't. They are constantly assisting passerby customers or stringing racquets. This place is interesting because they allowed us, or rather insist on borrowing a racquet before our play time to get a feel before purchasing. I was really thrown off by the practice but I must admit, an extremely effective one!! I was really stunned because the gentleman even showed me the drop box to return the racquet if the store is closed. . We ended purchasing the racquet with more confidence knowing we got to try it for the weekend. I can't recommend this no frill place enough. The experience I had from the Wilson store to this was like night and day. Non pretentious, experts giving you honest advice based on your needs. The store was filled with everything you need. They even sell 17" racquets. I never seen those in person at a store. Really decent prices, great lounge for your waiting needs and a fabulous view to one of the best venue in Queens.

Wow! I just had the BEST tennis store experience thanks to DIMOS. He works there and was not only…read moresuper nice but so informative about my racquet and just tennis overall. I'm an attorney so it's my nature to ask a lot of questions and Dimos had an answer for everything and did not get annoyed even for a second (I was annoyed at myself for asking so many questions lol). He is also very personable and we were able to chat about our own tennis experiences, even about how our Fathers are still holding down the tennis courts these days! He really took time to explain so much and because of him, this is now my go-to tennis store for anything tennis whether it's for tennis shoes, a new racquet or grabbing a few tennis balls. And FYI - they're prices are legit amazing so that only made this experience sweeter. Shout outs to Dimos. Thank you sir!
