I do have to say this about this target ,,i love that i can pay my credit card bills there Thanks target...... and they do have good stuff in here (NOT CLOTHES THOUGH)......i dont buy clothes from target maybe socks and bedding and bathroom items and thats it ...most of the employees are young school kids and its nice that target gives them jobs.... but they need to restock things on a regular because it looks straight ghetto in some of those aisles but i will return to this target read more

For some reason, this target ALWAYS smells terrible when you enter. VERY busy on weekends or after work, so be prepared. Otherwise, always well stocked and never out of what I need. Everyone tends to be friendly and very helpful. read more

They really have what you need despite these exaggerated reviews I'm seeing that maybe steered a person's veiws on the culture of the area. I haven't had my cart stolen, ther were never screaming babies, and if you do witness strange costumers and funny smelling bathrooms, then stop gojing into public places. I've shopped at roche bros in norwood, walmart in walpole and I see those same tthings. It's easy to be extra sensitive to sensory when your nervous about the area and paying too much attention to your surroundings because of it. You may choose not to notice it in everett or whereever your from but, i can tell you when I venture out, I see the same things: Young girl cusses and wants something, then mommy relents because she wants to avoid screaming, lol maybe thats why in those areas had more screaming children because they don't relent. I guess it's a culture thing, but I tell you what you wont have that many brats I see in these so called better markets. These people are supposed to be "classier" but like everyone says that it seems like these people are uncaring, that's because your culture(if you arent from the inner city) goes out of your way to impress, avoid typical labeling or portray a facade when I have seen the most underfunctioning families, and problematic thinking than in any other culture. If this is on the list of unformidable locations because of your few trips then opt for your culturely comfortable locations but then again you are there to shop, not observe! Overall, convenient, good prices, good products, and avoid the media, I hate how stores put the most expensive sections in the front, especilly when it's flat screens and flashy video game items. love video games! read more

I just simply love target you can never go wrong with target. Good customer service I only have good experiences at target and they have a pizza hut too so you can spend hours in the store without fainting or anything they also have Starbucks. read more

Refund and exchange services sucked. Two employees were working on one costumer to do a simple storing task while I was waiting in line.. ridiculous read more

On the website it said they had iphone Xs 64gb in stock.... get to the counter no iphone Xs 64gb in stock but the guy almost got away with selling me a ten times more expensive 256 gb one. I wouldn't trust the information on their website or their in store employees. Not only did my mistrust cost me time, but gas and toll fees. F- rating. 0/10 read more

I always expect this Target location to be busy, but it's close to work so I can go on my lunch break. Plus the selection is better than the Westwood location which is closer to me. Yes, the parking lot is chaotic but that's not Target's fault. I agree with previous reviews - park a few spots away. They always have what I need, and if I can't find something, I've been walked to it by an employee, I've never had an issue at check out, however the lines do tend to move slowly. read more

This Target is accessible by public transportation, but it's not in a particularly good area. It gets pretty busy, and service is not all that great. We went to pick up a few things and there wasn't a great selection. We also had a coupon for a free item and the cashier had no idea how to enter it and just gave up and sent us to customer service where we had to wait in line again. Might go back again just for the convenience factor of not having to rent a car, but we will definitely try to find other places to buy things we need. read more

It's a good Target. Yeah, it's a little dirty, but other than that they have a great selection of merchandise, great prices on food products, lots of homewares, and it's in a great location in South Bay. I always seem to have a hard time finding an employee if I need help with something but that doesn't matter all that much. All in all, it's A-OK. read more

Probably the worst target I've been to. Just seems a little run down, selection of stuff not that great. We went here to register for wedding gifts and it seemed that half the things we wanted didn't have recognized bar codes. WTF? How do you expect people to buy things if they're not scannable? Not sure if this is a problem at other Targets, but I would recommend going elsewhere for a registry. One of the only positive things was that the security guard gave us good directions to the T. read more

Always has great sites, I gotta admit the selection isn't always the best but it's Target what more do you the consumer expect.

Target in Dorchester is getting into better shape after the bulk of this remodel is now over. I have definitely been avoiding Target since the construction but in a snap decision I stopped to grab a few birthday cards. Things seemed moved around a bit but the slow is okay and it is cleaner lately. Good job, keep it up because in Dorchester a clean store has become rare. read more

It's like everyone that works here is high, including the management. They never have enough registers open... Common target!!!!

I always go to this target because it is closer to home and they have everything that I'm looking for. It's a big target. Always have parking. Always have designer collaboration lines. Sometimes can be very messy, but that's because this place attract a lot of customers and the customers usually make the mess. read more

I took my elderly father to Target to grab a few items. My father walks with a cane and uses the carriage to balance himself while shopping. Going back to our car is where things got tricky. The carriage locked once we crossed the street. We had to literally DRAG our carriage to our car. We had a few bags but like I said he walks with a cane, if he was by himself he would have been screwed. And we weren't alone. It was crazy watching customers dragging their shopping carts to their cars or loading up their bundles awkwardly in their arms after spending hundreds of dollars in Target. There has to be a better solution to keeping the shopping carts safe. Well..... I guess I'm going to Walmart for my household needs from now on. read more

By far the worst Target I have ever gone into. I definitely won't be going there again. They had a poor selection of everything.

Compared to some stores, it's an amazing store. But if you're gonna employ people in electronics and phone accessories, then make them aware of all products, not just the ones they prefer while remaining clueless about the rest. Or have them trained by the ladies in the clothing (mens or womens) department. They know what they are doing and some even remember when I was close to 400lbs and remarked about how good and healthier I looked (234lbs now)with the weight loss. read more

to the cautionary note below concerning safety at South Bay/Target.......does the writer live in the South Bay area near the Target store? I do, and I shop at South Bay any time of the day or night and have no outstanding fear of my surroundings. I don't even usually lock my car. Normal, usual cautions, like not being a jerk are sufficient for one's safety there. It is well lighted and there is seemingly sufficient guard/police presence. read more

Unwilling to stay home all day, I ventured out to go to Target; and given its location, constantly looked over my shoulder in a paranoid manner, whilst maintaining a 5m distance from the nearest human. I found this store easy to navigate. The lines for the checkout were quite long. All in all, my experience at this Target was good. By the way, I took the subway to Andrew station and walked the remaining distance - the area was safe enough. (The stoplights didn't function well enough, though.) read more

I'm a huge fan of Target. I love their prices and I love the fact they have many different brands. I'm really a big fan of organic body care. They have a fairly wide variety from body washes to shampoos and conditioners. They always have what I want in stock. The staff here aren't overly friendly or overly rude. I'm not sure about other reviewers claiming that this place is a mess. I've never seen it horribly messy. Its Target and they have tons of shoppers so of course its never going to be 10 Stars on the organized scale. They have a decent food selection. I do wish they sold a better variety of meats but its Target not a full on grocery store. I hate the location though. Anything in South Bay automatically get put down because well South Bay is horrible in general. read more

Don't buy a TV from This place!!! I bought a TV from Target. The delivery and basic set up was an extra 99.99 dollars. They gave me the technical support service number : (877) myTGTtech to schedule the delivery with them.. so i did On the delivery day, the delivery guys called and told me that Target has no record of my purchase!!!!!!!!! I talked to target by phone and they said that the TV i bought did not exist and there is NO RECORD of This Purchase!! Thanks GOD i had the receipt.. i had to go all the way to dorchester again to show them my receipt. They found the TV that i purchased and they assured me that they will reschedule the delivery. I haven't heard from them at all!!!!! I called target again and they told me to call the technical support... i called the technical support and they told me to call target. I spent hours and hours on the phone and their service was so bad that i don't encourage anyone to deal with them. I ended up going back to the store again and request a refund. read more

Usually able to get in and out if u come early, but today long lines short staffed.. Painful

The world's only Targetto, this place is excellent. If you haven't been in Boston long, it is the most likely place to see a shoplifter footchase / tackle. read more

I just heard today that there were customers in your store with a clearly marked Service dog and denied access! If this is a Target practice, I will NOT be shopping in Target anywhere, ever again! And this area just opened a huge Target in Pembroke Mall, and had actually considered checking it out. read more

So at least four employees have already heard this story, but my girlfriends and I got home with several pounds of fully thawed food in soggy boxes, so I figured I'll tell it one more time here. This was our trip to Target tonight: Get to the registers, only reasonable line is at the self checkouts, which we don't mind so we got in line. Get to the register and scan $220 worth of stuff, about half of which is frozen food. Scan our coupons. Realize that the two pairs of jeans we had were did not ring up as buy one get one half off per the current sale. Call the guy over to ask why and if he could fix it. Guy blindly presses every single button on the screen, including the produce menu, because I guess a sale on jeans might be hidden in there somewhere. I don't this kid had ever used these machines as a customer, he had definitely never used them as an employee. He's just pressing things at random, with no idea what the buttons did, and apparently unable to guess by, ya know, reading them. Guy voids and air pump we bought, apparently thinking it was the jeans, has us rescan. Guy voids one of the lines that says "JEANS" in it... Has us rescan, no change no discount. Guy presses buttons at random a little more. Guy tries to check out with my card in the chip reader, realizes what he's doing, tries to cancel while machine says "authorizing", card reader is asking for a signature, he also tries to hit cancel on there a few times. Guy takes my card out, his both "Cancel" buttons a few more times. Waits several minutes, tells us the machine is frozen and that we need to rescan everything at another register. Fine. We go to another self scan and start rescanning. We realize that we already put our coupons in the first machine, ask if he can get them back out for us kind of knowing what the answer would be, which it was: "nah..." Same problem with the jeans, but we don't even bother, figure we'll just go to customer service and get them to give us the sale. We just check out. Meanwhile, guy is opening up original machine and doing who knows what inside of it. As we're loading out bags into our cart, guy comes over and hands me a receipt, says simply, "it went through." So at this point, I think it was fair that I was losing my patience, I had just been over charged by over $220, I ask if he can reverse it, he says, and I quote, "no, you need to call your credit card company and get them to cancel the payment" - what?! Yes, because I can just call my credit card company any time and tell them I've decided not to pay for something and they'll just cancel it. Yeah. That's exactly how that works. So I says no, I can't cancel, you need to, and he tells me to go to guest services. Which is where we were gonna end up all along anyway I guess. So we went over there, told this whole scenario to the girl behind the desk. She got flustered, called for help. We waited. The guy who eventually came over said some things, checked some things on a computer. We waited. He realized the first things he had said weren't true, called for help as well. We waited. Lady showed up, listened to the story, told them what to do out of ear shot. We waited. Gives receipts back to first girl and goes in back. Girl tells us she's going to return the receipt with the lower amount (i.e. The one WITH our coupons on it, before we lost them) We protest, after nearly half an hour at customer service, we are at least get what we started all of this for. She gets flustered, calls the last lady back out, she comes back, listens to our story, has the nerve to now ask "wait, did you pay for everything twice?" Which is exactly the problem we've been trying to solve this whole time. I have no idea what she thought it was the first time she addressed it.... Tells the girl to refund the second receipt instead. Finally the girl gives me a refund for the second order. One. Item. At. A. Time. We waited. Tells us that's everything. I ask why the amount returned doesn't equal the amount paid. We go back and forth for 5 minutes. Didn't the item she missed. And finally she also gave us the buy one get one 50% off deal that started everything. The time stamp on the first receipt, after we'd shopped and rung everything up, is 6:07. The time stamp on the final return slip is 6:41. Program your machines wrote. Do let untrained people run the machines. And do something about your customer service process. I don't know what else I can say. Except that *everything* we bought today could have been bought for the same price at other stores in the same plaza. And next time it will be. Going to three different stores is actually more convenient than going to one, when the one is the South Bay Target. read more

Very RUDE staff!! VERY GHETTO! It's always a mess in this store and the staff could care less! I asked an associate for help and she just walked away from me!! I complained to the manager he just looked at me like I was bothering him, so I just don't bother!! Spend the extra time a go to Target Braintree and you will be treated with respect and dignity!! read more

Watched security (presumably...they weren't dressed as anything special) drag, beat, and swear at a woman as they pulled her into a back room. She was crying, screaming "you can't touch me." The man pulling her was obviously in a fit of rage - totally inappropriate for ANYONE, nevertheless an employee. Disgusting. read more

I entered here expecting to have not that much difficulty finding the things I needed or at least knowing if they even have it. After talking to 4 different employees I was sent to four different sections that I would later find out upon arrival to said sections they would be related to the items I was looking for. All I wanted was to know if they had tie dye kits and if they did if I could be directed as to where to find it. None of the employees knew and I got sent to the hair dye section at one point. Clearly showing lack of store knowledge or having the capacity to give even mediocre customer service from their employees. If I could give just half a star I would. read more

I usually love Target, but had an awful experience here yesterday. Sure, it's college move-in week, but isn't that a reason to keep the store stalked up in essentials? There were many bare shelves in the Health & Beauty sections- couldn't even find half of the toiletries I needed. There were barely any employees around to help direct you around the store, and the place was a mess. Usually I love Target, but this one was a mess! read more

a convenient place to shop, they always have good prices and a good wide selection of products from groceries, to clothing, electronics, and home goods.theres always someone for everyone at target. read more

Used to be a good target but recently here the shelves are not stocked at all. Many basic things are missing or there will be empty boxes left. It's annoying because I used to go here for everything, one stop shopping, now I just see empty spaces where the things I want should be... Half of the young people they hire are questionable workers, they play music from their phones walking thru the store, if you ask them a question where something is they can't tell you. I live in Boston and don't feel like traveling here because two times I left because it wasn't stocked. Hope management does something about this read more

The pharmacy is absolutely fantastic. I used to go to CVS and they have to be the worst. A friend told me about the Target pharmacy and I am so glad she did. read more

This place is a really good target. Yet if you head to the men's section. You can find yourself a pretty good pair of slacks. Personally, I checked out the haggar straight fit chino, which I tried on. I have to say they were good pants. The pants feel pretty good and look pretty sexy. I would give them a 7.4 out of 10 on the pants scale. If you want to know more about what I thought about the pants, check out my review at http://www.subsandstuffboston.com/2014/12/mail-bag-pants-review-stuff.html read more

This place is like a box of chocolates: you never know what you're going to get. Sometimes it is great. Sometimes you will come here to buy bread and there simply won't be any bread. At all. It is very strange. This place has a tendency of running out of certain items, which I have never seen in a big grocery store before. That being said, they do have a very wide selection of items to choose from. Basically, if you shop here, you are taking a chance that the item won't be in stock, but if it is in stock, then it will be great. read more

Better prices than the nearby grocery store and drugstores is why I like Target! Being from out of state, I am tired of the cvs on every corner! From home to beauty items, even the chewing gum, is a couple dollars less than cvs. You can't do a full grocery trip here since theres no produce but the snacks, cereal and juices are less than stop & shop. If some yelpers are so elite why are you even in this store in the first place? If a business is in a certain area some of you will come on here and give an ignorant, negative review . An example is Jeremy P from two reviews below. I haven't seen anyone walking around with pants sagging & gold teeth and Starbucks is for anyone, you don't know who is a customer there. Using the words "serenghetti" or "nubian' as an insult have nothing to do with giving a review on target. I guess a Target by Prudential or Braintree or Western Massachusetts would be sooo much "better". read more

Let me preface this with the fact that I love Target but I am giving this store a 1 star (less if I could) because or the HORRIBLE manager there named Barbara. She is rude to guests and workers and clearly doesn't know the store policy. I purchased items that were part of a "Get a $5gc WYB 3 items".... She said that since she was the manager she didn't have to give me the gift cards if she didn't want to because she was the manager and can do what she wants. I have had issues with her in the past but this was the last straw. Barbara clearly needs to go to an employee training session and also work on her customer service skills. read more

I love the South Bay target. I was just shopping there today and had a great shopping expierence getting what I wanted. An employee named Angelo, helped me find what I wanted - an ironing board and was nice enough to check through the database for me. Thank you South Bay Target and Angelo! read more

The entrance smells strongly of vomit, diapers, and nursing homes. I have no idea why, but it lingers in the cart area. They DO have an in store Starbucks and Pizza Hut. The bathrooms are grotesque. The photo dept. is a nightmare. Photos are either not there, blurry, or there is no adequate help at the counter. Lots of perishables strewn about, like boxes of ice cream novelties the employees return to the freezer after a long while. (I witnessed this) I once had the employees throw away (or lose) one of my gloves and the manager offered to help find them for me, suprisingly. I mistakenly put it down next to some items and a clerk told me he "found it, but doesn't know where it is now" which is weird but ok. Don't even think about using coupons at this location unless you want to feel like a guest on Jerry Springer, because a lot of the cashiers (not all) are not very adept at reading them. Frustrating. read more
