Marshall's Department Store

For the first time in years, the quantity of inventory surpassed my expectations. Unfortunately,…read morethe quality was not up to par pre-Covid. Much of the merchandise looked like it was 4 to 10 years old mixed in with one or two small displays of new merchandise. The store was very crowded, and it was difficult to navigate the aisles. It was apparent that there wasn't enough staff to merchandise the displays appropriately. There seems to be a good selection of sizes, but nothing really looked like you couldn't live without it. I know there are supply chain issues, but Marshalls used to be my go to place for items that were marked down because it was just off-season. I do hope the buyers if they are experienced, will resume finding quality at a bargain price.

This is one the best Marshall's locations that I've been to. It is clean and organized, and the…read moreseasonal items are always displayed nicely. Staff is great, and the line always moves fast at the register.

I came in once looking for black sleeveless shirts, and I found them 50% off, so I bought a couple, and came in a few days later, looking for more because my friends wanted some too. The store is rarely crowded, and the staff is friendly and helpful. Sometimes, I don't get how the clothes are arranged, but usually just browsing around, one can find what they need. Towards the back of the store is the sales rack, where I usually go, and for the most part, it is arranged neatly and doesn't have the picked over appearance.

Stop asking me can you help me, twice is maybe ok. But Yesterday 05/01/2019 at 7:15pm I drove from teaching a class in Bridgeport ( I should of went to a Gap up there but this one was close to home) and needed two dresses for my daughter for a fashion show and her first time at the theater. She was super excited because the sign said "Dresses for spring and everything". I was excited because I had to use the bathroom so bad. I could not even focus, my little one went to the dresses I danced to the clerk and asked for the bathroom while doing the familiar pee-pee dance. By the time I got to the bathroom door my pants were half-staff. Lo and Behold a sign read out of service. I had to sit on the floor to ensure there would be no clean up. I stood up and said to the lady " this bathroom is out of order can I use yours" she said "let me ask the manager." The manager said "NO". I danced passed the manager telling me to try a different store and my little asking if we are coming back. I am a customer and a card holder, I have made a choice to spend my hard earned money at the Gap and costumer service means a lot to me. Proper customer service sends a message that a company appreciate the choice I have made in using my spending dollars at their establishment. I will not be back, to many other places sells little girl dresses.

I live 6 minutes from this amazing beautiful quaint family run nursery and I had never heard of it…read more What a magical place!! It's almost like walking onto a movie set. There are 6 greenhouses to explore, each filled with tables of organic vibrant healthy flowers and vegetable seedlings and potted plants. The hanging baskets of flowers are gorgeous, especially the petunia mixes and the huge luscious brilliant orange and yellow trailing nasturtiums. The birds are singing, it smells great and the owner is so nice and wonderfully helpful if you have any questions. The prices are so reasonable. Even if you aren't sure if you need anything, go there and wander around. You will walk away feeling calmer and with a smile on your face. It's worth turning on your GPS and finding your way there, 201 Fresh Meadow Rd, West Haven.

If I hadn't looked up local nurseries I never would've known they were there, it's definitely a pleasant surprise to find this adorable farm tucked away where I never would've guessed! My birthday passed recently and the only two things I told my family I wanted to do were get boba tea and go to the nursery. Golden Acres was my choice and I'm so glad it was. I was very impressed by the variety and amount of plants they had, there was tons to choose from! They have numerous greenhouses open at various times with seasonal veggies, perennials, annuals, etc. I love that they are organic and make a point to feature what they do and don't use. I am more of an ornamental gardener who only does a few edibles, but I still try to stay organic and it meant alot to me how transparent they were about their practices. The signs at each greenhouse with pricing and variety were extremely helpful and the way it was setup almost on a trail that you followed to each greenhouse (with various plants also set up outside) made it easy to look at everything without getting too turned around. All the plants looked very happy and healthy and I didn't see any visible pests while browsing. They were close to closing when we stopped by but they never rushed us or acted inconvenienced that we were still there. I ended up purchasing 2 6pk coleus starts - wizard mix and rainbow mix (with plans to return and purchase more plants once I had more time and money), and they were very reasonably priced, transplanted wonderfully and all 12 are thriving. I was extremely impressed by Golden Acres and can't wait to go back. Highly recommend!

That we grow healthy plants the old fashioned way!

They serve both beginner and seasoned gardeners, offering a wide range of products from grow lights and planting bags to organic seedlings and hanging baskets, with friendly, knowledgeable staff on hand to offer advice on plant care. My daughter and I stopped by here on our way to a Yelp event, spotted the place, and decided to take a look around. The store was lively, filled with a variety of plants, and everything was kept tidy. The owner was very knowledgeable and eager to chat. Since my mother loves plants, I decided to buy her a gift certificate for Christmas. If you're in the neighborhood and have a green thumb--or know someone who does--this is a great spot to check out.

Lark is a woman's boutique, they sell quality sweaters, purses and other cashmere and wool accessories. There are so many other little accessories, like unique fair trade earrings, and hair accessories. They also have a whole assortment of decor for your home or your Christmas tree.

They have a baby section at Lark. From the tiny holiday dresses, to the softest plushies, and so many toys and books. The one reason I can't give five stars to Lark is the cost, everything is a pretty penny here. If you're looking for cashmere gloves, or some moon and star earrings, this is your place.
