“This place is NOT closed permanently. Fun place with a little bit of everything. Ive gone in there when I needed things around the house, but also just to kill time with my 2year old niece who enjoys finding all sorts of fun treasures too.”
“The young man I worked with was helpful and honest. I broke the dowels on 2 finial posts from my pencil post bed. He was very clear about how the finials would be fixed.”
“Our son took us to pumpkintown USA I bought a few items a white pumpkin & purple cabbage plant. Our son bought their famous apple cider doughnuts. We drove thru the pumpkin theme patch.”

“Love this hidden gem! I have called three times in the last two weeks for certain products for a specific need. One of the young gentlemen even took the time to google to ensure the product they carried would meet my need. You just don't see that anymore. Please support these small business!!!”
“My sister and I came in here for a new battery for my car keys today. I asked the gentleman at the register if there was any way he could help me take the key apart. He took his time to take my key apart, get the new battery and replaced it all for me. He was so kind and friendly and went way above and beyond!!! I did not get his name but hopefully he sees this and realizes that he made my day. Such great customer service!”
“Ace Hardware in Colchester, CT is top notch. We moved to the area a little over a year ago and first began shopping there, originally due to the proximity, but continue to go because of the outstanding customer service. All the associates, both junior and senior, are wonderful! It is a little like stepping back in time and experiencing what great customer service used to more commonly be. The associates have always been genuinely interested and invested in helping us. They give wonderful advice and if they don't know the answer, they pull in another associate for wisdom. It's especially impressive the work ethic we have witnessed from the junior associates. We have gotten the impression that the senior associates have either mentored them wonderfully and/or they are just incredibly self motivated. Regardless, it's refreshing to witness and experience. It's also impressive how well the any of the associates remember us and ask us how we are doing AND they remember if you've served in the military. Ace Hardware in Colchester, CT is a hidden gem in our opinion. Again, it gives such nostalgic vibes of yesteryear when your neighbors were your family. We truly hope the associates at the Ace in Colchester know that these acts of kindness with their customer service, although may seem small, always have a positive impact on our day. It also gives us hope that their are still business', like Ace, where we can shop and the associates still do the right thing, take pride in what they do and appreciate their customers without fail. They all really deserve recognition.”

“I stopped in today, while inside the skies unleashed, it was crazy! Unfortunately, I bought some bags of concrete and I had to drive around to have them loaded. The poor young man was a drowned rat but as pleasant and helpful as could be! He even apologized for the rain! Love hometown local stores! From the manager on down these folks are the best!!”
“I had the most wonderful experience with a cashier named Angela today . She was beyond helpful, incredibly friendly, and truly kind. Her warm attitude and willingness to go the extra mile made my day. I can honestly say I’ve never experienced customer service like this before. Angela is a rare gem, and because of her, I will absolutely be returning. Stores need more employees like her—she’s the kind of person who makes a lasting impression. Thank you, Angela!”
“Holy cow this place has everything. Great selection of products from paint, hardware to power equipment and most everything in-between too.
FYI .. it's not a convenience store though, get your munchies fix elsewhere.”
