“Love this store! I love this store growing up in the 80’s brought back great memories of school shopping back in the day. The owner is so nice and pleasant kind .
Prices were great and quality of the clothes amazing ! Brand names…
Great service!”
“Catherine from Lady In The Moon was an absolute gift at my birthday party at my home. She brought such a warm, grounded and personable presence, truly the perfect energy for an intimate gathering of my closest friends and loved ones. She immediately made everyone feel comfortable and seen, which set the tone for the entire evening.
What stood out most was how deeply relevant her readings were. Several of my friends commented on Catherine’s ability to naturally home in on what was happening in their lives, using metaphors and language that were uncannily specific to their personal experiences, things she couldn’t possibly have known beforehand. It felt thoughtful, intuitive, and incredibly resonant for everyone involved.
Catherine didn’t just offer tarot readings; she elevated the entire experience and made my party feel meaningful, connected, and memorable. I would highly recommend her for a personal reading or as a truly special addition to any event, birthday or otherwise. She made my celebration unforgettable, and my friends are still talking about it ✨”
“Had to do an exchange and the clerk could not have been more helpful and customer oriented. He took care of everything with a cheerful attitude and made sure that I was taken care of. Nick is a true professional and truly represents Duluth Trading Company at its best”
“Ahh this brilliance of Corey and Co now so poetically r e f r e s h e d into SEPTEMBER - - - Hoping to see more from the now Corey Studio playful alchemy ! SEPTEMBER - in deed a new treasured gem of Portland's Old Port. I found s u c h a surprise of a scarf and so feminine Korean sweater - - this time round”
“They both were super kind, friendly, helpful, and sweet! Me and my little sister had Rain (based on what my receipt says), so I’m not sure who the other person working there today was.”
“Super cute clothes & things. I love the Bo-Ho style.
Nice very Ladies. Thank you Bailey for helping me pick something beautiful for my first Date night in Maine”
“This is my go to shop for just about everything! Jen, the owner, has a great eye for all things; from her handmade jewelry, thrift clothing finds, consignments to vintage flair... be sure to take your time when visiting, because you will be sure to find some gems! Make sure to share with your friends & loved ones too!”
“I stumbled across this gem while visiting Portland and was completely blown away! Yes, the prices are a bit higher than your typical thrift store, but that’s because of the quality and brands they carry—it’s 100% worth it. Everything was in excellent condition, full of gently loved pieces at a fraction of the original retail price.
Even though I’m from South Carolina, I’ve continued to shop online and have been so impressed by the incredible customer service, fast shipping, and how responsive the staff is. My suitcase was actually overweight from how many amazing finds I brought home—no regrets!
I saw another review mention a lack of size variety, but that absolutely wasn’t my experience. My girlfriend and I both found pieces we loved—and she’s six feet tall! They truly have something for everyone.
Can’t recommend this place enough. You girls are crushing it—thank you for creating such a fun, inclusive, and stylish shopping experience!”
“I came here twice during my trip to Portland. I wanted a bunch of souvenirs for the folks back home but needed to stay on a budget. This store had a lot of good souvenir Portland merch and other garments. Affordable items and good quality. I purchased fridge magnets and keychains. The customer service is amazing! Both of my interactions were great and I will definitely be back when I go back to Portland!”
“I was in tonight around 7:30pm near closing and had such great customer service from Kathleen! Kathleen was helpful, instantly made me feel welcome and offered suggestions for other items I might enjoy. The whole interaction felt super genuine — I very much appreciated it, especially going in so late. You’re a gem, Kathleen!!”
“I went to this store while in Portland. I loved it! They have such cute things and the employees were so willing to help. There is a lot of shopping in this area. Don't miss this store.”
“FIRST time in Portland wonderful customer service from the slim girl with the afro and the light skin girl with the braces. Super chill vibes found what I needed”
“I always find exactly what I need. Found my new favored work shoes. The staff were friendly and knowledgeable, allowing me to return something that didnt fit, I received as a gift.”
“I have always had nothing but great experience at this Exprss store in South Portland Maine. The manager is top notch and always assists me with professionalism and top notch service.”
“Colby was my associate today and gave outstanding, kind service to me and my friend! He was the only one working in a very busy store. Especially this time of year! Kudos to Colby.”
“Incredible staff and well stocked and visually appealing store. The location is an old bank and oh my god its so interesting to look at. My only complaint is for the staff, I wish Urban Outfitters would splurge and get these wonderful ladies full time security so they are able to do their jobs without worrying about being harassed, assaulted, or worst by shop lifters.”
“Only went in there for glasses, but I browsed around as well. The store was well maintained, the staff was friendly and greeted me right at the door, and the styles and selections for clothing were great. One of my favorite stores to shop.”
“The only store in Maine that has formula 1 merchandise stocked. Was so happy to see the Red Bull tshirts and hoodies. The store associates were professional and helpful. It’s a nice small store but has a little bit of everything which makes it stand out. Will definitely be back for more.”
“I didn't even know this store had switched over to a "factory store". The prices were all 50 -60% off and there were a lot of really nice pieces. I was pleasantly surprised when I went in to see that they were still carrying nice things. They carry women's, men's and childrens clothes. (Not a big selection of children's clothes)”
“Stopped in on our weekend up from Boston. Very impressed with how clean and well stocked this location was! The staff was very friendly, and could not have been more accommodating helping me find some great new pieces for spring!”
“So sad that it's closing. Cute designs though hard to find stuff in my size. Workers are super friendly though are busy, and sometimes you have to wait for them to help you.”
“I had a funny experience here with my son fairly recently. We always go in to Spencers for t shirts when we’re at the mall. We don’t venture past the t shirt walls, but would possibly consider doing so if it wasn’t so overcrowded feeling in the store. Other than the space issue, the shirt selection is good and I can never pass up a buy 4 get 1 free sale.We went in around the holidays and got some shirts. When we got to the counter the person waiting on us made a joke about judging our taste in music based on what t shirts we were buying. My son and I are both Nirvana fans and had each gotten a new shirt. Our cashier commented “ah Nirvana…name 3 songs” I came up with some of the lesser known titles I knew to prove that I wasn’t a poser. This seemed to satisfy and the transaction went smoothly. On our way out our amateur band critic of a Spencer’s associate commented in seeming approval of the “Kendrick Lamar” hoodie my son was wearing. We didn’t have the heart to tell them that it was actually Jimi Hendrix hahahaha”
“Jacob was very pleasant & helpful, I can't understand why they would move him to another store. The cashier who assisted with cashing out was very nice also. Unfortunately I forgot his name, But the staff needs to be more customer friendly, they never welcomed you to the store ask if you find what you're looking for etc. I see the manager Sam making the effort. And that's why I gave this store 4 stars.”
“I love this store. I don't know what it is about this store, but I feel like a little kid walking into a toy store when I come here. I'm not quite sure why. Maybe it's because the staff always greet and recognize you every time you walk in. Or maybe it's because there's always tons of items stocked inside waiting to be bought. The only thing I would say about going here is items can sometimes be VERY pricey. So just remember to bring some cash whenever you feel like coming here. Other then that, this store is a excellent place to shop and always a great place to be a part of!”
“Was at the store in Portland, Maine on Sunday. This was my first time in the store and found it to be amazingly clean, well set up and excellent variety. Great prices and employees were very friendly. Definitely What iswonderful store, will go back.”
“The place I get the majority of my wardrobe, but it can definitely be a hit or miss with what you find, and the prices used to be more reasonable. Definitely better than the mall or Goodwill.
Kadie is an amazing employee though, she definitely cares about her job and people. Whatever she’s making, it’s not enough. She makes Plato’s Closet much better!”
“Caitlin has done countless vehicles for our dealership and they’ve all come back flawless. She really takes pride in her work and it shows, highly recommended!”
