Department Stores near Lewiston, ME

“My family and I have always loved Mardens. But my fiancé had never been! I was like WHATTTT?! Mardens has everything from name brand clothing, flooring, small rugs/big rugs, furniture for every room in the house, and food. Except that's not it....I could go on and on about the things they have! My fiance and I spent almost 4 hours in here the other day, and i only had us leave because the kids were getting mad. They have the best things, the best prices, and helpful staff... Even though I do love this store, they should really try to organize better. Looking through the clothes was so hard. For example, all kids' sizes were all thrown together... and the same for adults, honestly... Nothing was where it was supposed to be, so I probably missed a lot of good clothes for my whole family and I.
I recommend this store 100%”

“Hello, I do not write reviews often but I just had to say how amazing the experience I had there this morning was! I needed to purchase some large bags of soil and the young man working there was so pleasant. Kind and nice to me, I’m 62 so carrying those bags to my car would have been difficult I diddnt even have to ask and he was already doing it! Sean I think was his name, amazing young man. Way to go! Definitely will keep coming to this location even though it’s a little out of my way”

“I will tell you the number one thing that cannot be beat at TJ Maxx and that is the customer service. I shop mostly in Auburn and in Portland at the TJ Maxx stores. While at the Auburn store yesterday with my friend I was looking at Earmuffs and they were packaged. Harley who was nearby offered to open the package for me to try them on as he was nearby. I bought them. I think he is an assistant manager. Another sales associate, I think she was a manager perhaps with the name Danielle said hello as she walked past and we told her how wonderful Harley was. Our checkout experience was great as we were waited on by a lovely young man as another associate smiled at us nearby. Yes there are some cool things there but it is the customer service that I look forward too also. Keep up the good customer service. It feels like coming home.”

“Food is amazing, super fast friendly service! Prices are great, you can get an awesome on the go lunch for around ten bucks. And the owner is a really cool dude too!!!”

“I have updated my review of the store. I previously had reviewed the store as one star because of cleanliness and inventory issues not having any men’s size large. On my most recent visit, I noticed that the store was much cleaner and the inventory was better stocked. I do wish there was one more cashier available, but other than that shopping was a treat.”

“Jayden was amazing with my 8 year old son! He talked her ear off the whole time and she listened and engaged with grace. She listened to what we both wanted and he loves his hair so much! We will be back to see her for sure! ?”

“I have had years of long, thick and unruly hair. Have been afraid to have anything other than long layers. Today I took the plunge and had Linnea keep most of the length but had her do shorter layers. I am soooo happy! It looks fresh and healthy! The entire team is friendly and would highly recommend. Thank you Linnea!!”

“I'm really digging these hybrid Family Dollar Trees, excellent selection of what Lisbon Falls needs at generally reasonable value. Staff is overworked, but as helpful as they can be.”

“Girls, let me tell you.....this is my ABSOLUTE FAVORITE Sephora and I'm a sephora addict. Allison is so awesome and the person To go to if you need help with ANYTHING. She is absolutely an asset to Sephora. She is so kind, thoughtful, respectful and so so helpful. I have never met an employee at a store like her. Like I said, she is just a complete asset to that company.”

“Pretty good place to shop. It always seems like it's out of whatever you're looking for in the clothing department, but I guess this just means they have a lot of customers, so they must be doing something right, right? Other than that I had a peaceful time shopping here. It's a little busy but I have no real complaints there. Everyone was super friendly too! Thank you, Walmart Staff!!”

“Love having a local target, just one less star due to one staff’s EXTREME rudeness today. The older woman with reading glasses could not adequately or efficiently assist customers at the self check out (took longer than I have ever waited at a self check out,) on an average/not super busy time of day. My neurodivergent 4 year old son accidentally rang something in more than once and we were struggling to delete the extra items without staff assistance. We waited several minutes before deciding to head to the cashier check out line and waited in line there. My husband brought my son to walk over towards Starbucks to keep him busy while I finished checking out. The same woman from self check out made a point to come find me in line, tap me on my shoulder which jumped me as I have PTSD, and proceeded to very rudely SCOLD me (I’m a 32 year old professional woman) in front of other customers and staff. I attempted to explain the situation with my son and she literally yelled in my face, and I quote, she said: “DON’T EVER DO THAT” to which I calmly responded “you were helping someone else for quite some time.” She had even waited at the end of my row and then literally pushed past other customers until my husband had walked out of ear shot with my son. She snapped back at me “It’s fine if I was with other people but you NEED to let me know!” Absolutely not, ma’am. It’s 1000% her job to man the self check out especially while not even busy. I peeked over at the self check out when we left and she was literally inches away from another customer’s screen in the self check out with reading glasses, trying to figure it out. I understand not everyone is tech savvy and as someone who is literally partially blind myself, I get it. But don’t be having people in the self check out that are not efficient or friendly. It’s just not acceptable. For context, I do atleast one hefty target pick up order weekly and I’m a very regular customer. I rarely shop indoors and the one time I chose to, I was accosted and literally yelled at in public. Do better.

Edit to add: The ladies at the pick up check out counter are the GOAT, y’all know who you are. I’ve never had another bad experience here and will continue to be a regular customer.”
