“Driven by this place many times and was always fascinated with the large great white shark on display, visible from Route 322. Decided to check it out and was impressed with the variety in inventory; ranging from cool knives, power tools and instruments to vintage video games. The gentleman that I spoke with, Jay, was very helpful and patient with answering all of my questions. Worth checking out for sure!”
“Here’s a more fun, warm, and appreciative version:
**Wow, wow, WOW!** ? Thank you for turning my wife’s dream ring into a reality! From start to finish, you and your team made the entire experience exciting, easy, and enjoyable. We truly appreciated your professionalism, attention to detail, and the clear step-by-step guidance throughout the custom design process.
Most importantly, you made sure my wife was completely happy with every detail—and the final ring exceeded all expectations. She absolutely loves it and hasn’t stopped smiling! ❤️✨
We can’t thank you enough for helping create such a special piece that she’ll treasure forever. We highly recommend Rue and the team at Jared Jewelers in West Hartford to anyone considering a custom ring.
If you're looking for exceptional service, expert craftsmanship, and a team that genuinely cares, look no further! ??”
“Had a wonderful experience at Kay’s with a lovely sales woman Kendra. Very friendly and answered all my questions. She knew exactly what I wanted. I will definitely be back.”

“Best PAWN SHOP hands down. Great Staff, very flexible with accepting mostly anything with value. If anyone asks me about a pawn shop this is the one. Cory is the BEST! & so is the rest of the crew”
“My name is Juan I had one of the best experiences in a long time manny took his time to help me pick the perfect anniversary gift for my wife I appreciate all the help he gave me I will definitely come back to purchase more gift from him thank manny.”
“I don't normally leave Google reviews, but these guys were truly a pleasure to work with. I bought a bunch of silver quarters from them, and their price and service was excellent. Highly recommended.”
“Andy repaired my rings after having them cut off my fingers. He was kind, professionally, and very understanding. The rings look better now than they did before their removal! I will recommend him to anyone who needs resizing or maybe a new piece of jewelry to add to their collection.”
“I went to 8 different Jewelers in the Hartford county area shopping for an engagement ring.. I wasn’t happy with any of them. It was either cost, lack of inventory, poor customer service, or just feeling pressured. My experience at Hannoush had absolutely none of those issues. I was completely comfortable, Mike was awesome, I could tell his experience was far beyond any other person or place. He made it so easy and had the ring done ahead of schedule. This will be the only jeweler I will use for the rest of my life. Don’t second guess going here.. you will not be disappointed. Thanks again Mike, you are the man!”
“I love Marie’s jewelry! Although I’m not local, they do lives, have an app& have already ordered by phone for me. They are wonderful people who are willing to go the extra mile for their customers. My items are always shipped to me in a timely manner.
Their selection ranges from low to high, depending on your preferences. I love everything I’ve purchased from them over the last 6 years. I highly recommend people to either visit if you’re local, or check them out online, or download their app. You won’t be disappointed.”
“We had an idea what we were looking for but they didn’t have it in stock. Scott was able to help us order the perfect pendant. It was quick and a super friendly transaction. We will be back for sure!”
“We went into the process of picking a wedding ring having NO clue what we were doing. We met Kayla and knew we found the perfect person to assist us in this journey.
I dont have the words to express the amount of knowledge and expertise she brought to the process, and assisted us every step of the way.
Through her guidance, today we picked up the PERFECT custom ring. We could not be happier or any more satisfied with this experience with Kayla and KAY Jewelers. Will not hesitate to share this experience and recommend to ANYONE.”
“Maria, the store manager, was absolutely wonderful. She showed incredible patience, knowledge, and professionalism while piercing my daughter’s ears, making the experience calm and reassuring. She took the time to explain everything clearly and helped us choose the right earrings and backs with care and confidence. We truly appreciated her expertise and warm demeanor an excellent experience from start to finish.”
“Great spot for anything jewelery related. Got a citrine/diamond necklace and ring here. Fair pricing, and the employees there are super helpful in figuring out what to get. They won’t try to upsell you to the extreme like other shops as well.”
“I went to Michael’s looking for
A watch. The service provided to me was excellent. The staff was courteous and professional. They were not pushy but extremely helpful in helping me find exactly what I was looking for!!”
“I dropped off my wedding band and engagement ring to be repaired since they were severely misshapen and they suggested I also have them soldered together to help keep them stronger. I just picked them up and I am blown away at the craftsmanship! The rings are slightly different sizes and you would never know with the way they are perfectly lined up. I also don’t think I’ve seen them this clean since I got married 7 years ago! Thank you so much!”
“I was looking for some indoor plants and they had a nice selection. I'm more of a beginner and I found lots of varieties. I picked up a gorgeous Tradescantia. Their plants were healthy and clean. I will definitely be back.”
“Beautiful selection and honest and knowledgeable salesperson. I came in looking to sell a piece and was given recommendations on where to get a better price. If I ever need anything this is the first place I will look or ask for advice from.”
“I had such a great experience at Michael’s Jewelry! Trish was amazing from start to finish. She was so patient, friendly, and helped me pick out the perfect Pandora charm. Her customer service was excellent and she made the whole experience feel special and stress-free. You can tell she really cares about her customers. I’ll definitely be coming back again. Thank you, Trish!”

“Great service came in for repairs and they were able to repair all pieces brought in correctly and quickly. Very pleased with this service would def recommend them to anyone looking for jewelry or repairs”
“You always go into these establishments cautious, esp if your selling something. You should knw the value of what your selling so your not taken advantage of. Patrick at Brookside Pawn, is very honest, he's not out to take advantage of a seller, esp if the seller is uninformed of what they're selling. Connecticut is a small area to live and work in, u cant expect to have a good name and repeat customers if your don't treat them right, so if u want your transactions to go smoothly and get what you think is a fair or even better then fair deal, then dont hesitate to take a ride to Brookside, def worth the drive, dont bother with any of the other shops you see, most will take what they want, not even say hello, and send u on your way feeling regretful that u didn't go to Brookside in the first place,”
“If you haven’t shopped at Monarch Jewelers yet…. YOU MUST! This family owned business is FANTASTIC!

“Stopped in to buy a birthday gift, I've lived in New Britain for 10+ years and have either driven by or heard about this place numerous times.
There was only one other customer, on their way out, when I arrived. The owner was excellent, I told him what I was looking for + price range and after browsing for less than 5 minutes we had found the perfect bracelet.
Quick, smooth transaction, and gift wrapping was included, very well done, you can tell he's mastered that aspect. Overall great experience, I will def be back for more, very nice, great deal, one of a kind service.
10/10 - Highly recommended, will be going back whenever I need to buy a gift or even shopping for myself.”

“I just want to take a moment to shout out Dark Moon Shop in Bristol, CT ?? The energy in this metaphysical shop is absolutely beautiful—warm, welcoming, and filled with intention in every item. From crystals to candles, everything feels handpicked with love and purpose.
I’m also beyond excited to celebrate that my brother’s candle line is now officially part of Dark Moon Shop! ?️? Watching his creations find a home in such a magical space is truly a blessing, and I couldn’t be prouder.
If you’re in or near Bristol, make sure to stop by and support this shop—you’ll leave with more than just products, you’ll leave with energy, healing, and inspiration. ?”

“This is an easy place to find gifts for my wife. They have lots of items to choose from that she is sure to like. If you need a birthday or holiday card, they have those too.My go to gift from here for her are the Jewel Pops. They actually keep a record of which "Pops" I have purchased for her from here in the past so I don't make a mistake and get her the same gift twice. Now that's what I call a helpful staff. The staff here is also friendly.As a point or reference, it is located next to the entrance to the Southington Drive-In movie theater.”
