“I have to say that I was wearing my old black sneakers to work in and my feet was hurting for 2 weeks straight. And my Dentist recommended me to go here and try The Philadelphia Runner store. I have to say they had me stand this foot measuring to get my pressure points for my heel / arch and size. And when I got my shoes in I put them.on on day 1 my feet never hurt again. I am so amazed at the level of customer service and accuracy of the results from the feet diagnostics. You have a customer for life.”
“I couldn’t be more pleased with Joe and Larry for their outstanding customer service and commitment to standing behind a proven product. I experienced an issue with my 0211 ST irons that was technically out of warranty, yet they went above and beyond—working directly with their team in Scottsdale to resolve my unique situation. I absolutely love the irons I was fitted for a couple of years ago, and my entire experience—from the initial fitting and sale to the post-purchase support—has been nothing short of exceptional. Thank you from the bottom of my heart ??”
“Incredible experience!! Can’t recommend enough. I’m not a runner, had no idea what I was looking for and knew nothing about sneakers but needed supportive shoes for nursing school. You would never find expertise the way you do here at a large chain store!! The woman who helped us literally knew everything and it was such an easy process. I also happened to walk in during a midday rush and she was able to manage 3-4 people all at once without skipping a beat which I know must have been a challenge! Shop local it’s worth it!”
“The one and only running store you need! Best service, great selection and the friendliest people (staff & run club alike!) you could hope for! Highly recommended without reservation”
“One of the best shopping experiences Ive had in Philadelphia. Jacob was so kind, informative, thoughtful, friendly, and really knew his stuff. I brought a pair of shoes here and after I got home, I had doubts about the fit.I decided to go back to the store to see if I could find something that suited me better. As soon as I entered the store, I was immediately welcomed by Jacob, who was super kind and really knowledgeable. Based on my needs, he gave me awesome recommendations and even told me tips toextend the life of the shoes. Overall, he was awesome. I definitely would be back to buy more pairs of sneakers here and I felt like they didn’t just wanna make a sale, but they were really looking out from the best interest of my feet. Thank you so much.”
“The BEST customer service! Everyone was so helpful, knowledgeable and flexible. Sam helped me with everything and didn’t make me feel rushed. She was great with my littles that I had to bring along with me. It was an incredible experience! Will definitely go back!”
“Dealt with both Nick and Jason on two separate visits. Both are knowledgeable and very helpful! Very pleasant experience! A lot of people think of going to the big box stores for sneakers, at The Running Place you get much better service and the sneakers are the same price! They have a nice selection of sneakers and they can also order sneakers they may not have in store! Return policy is exceptional!!! Highly recommend!!!”
“Great selection and very helpful staff. I demoed a few different racquets over a few days to see which I liked playing with and then bought my favorite. It was strung the same day of purchase too! Bought it in the morning and picked it up that afternoon. Park in the lot around the corner and behind the store. Parking in front gets congested.”
“Knew about this store since middle school, ain’t make my first purchase till I needed sum pandas for me and the whole fam. They came clutch had all four pairs I needed, ten years in experience ain’t a joke. Much respect to them and their team, authenticated my OW AJ 5 for free. Go here if u need drip of any kind. I highly recommend”
“owner is very accomodating and caring about customers. He gave me a generous review after I returned an item. Very good location as well and easy to get to. Selection is also solid.”
“My students traveled from Hershey, PA to receive top-notch attention from Swan Dance Wear knowledgeable and encouraging team. Determined to find the perfect first pair of pointe shoe for each dancer, they left no stone unturned. The staff's positivity and expertise made the entire experience uplifting and memorable. Every dancer found their ideal match and is looking forward to their new journey!”
“For a small family owned shop, it is awesome. They did not carry any Nike apparel, but they explained that Nike no longer sells to small businesses, so it was truly out of their control. Shame on Nike.”

“Great spot to grab local Philly sports jerseys, hats, sneakers, cleats, bags, balls, bats, gloves, field hockey, lacrosse, tennis, backyard games, pickleball, and more! We appreciate their dedication to our community and support of youth sports. Thanks Tom and team.”
“I've had the pleasure of knowing Keith Bax for 35 years and can vouch for his professionalism and high level of skill in marketing, sales and operational management. I can't recommend him highly enough.”
“Better customer service/product satisfaction at a bizarre in Afghanistan where neither the seller or consumer spoke the language….
EDIT:
I am not deleting my previous review as I feel I owe the shop and her owner/operators an apology. So here it is: I left a bad review based upon ONE mistake on an order from the folks….they didn’t deserve the bad review but I will leave it as it shows that you can can have a horrible day and these guys will go ABOVE AND BEYOND to make you happy….you can always tell something about a business and her culture when they make a concerted effort to fix the mistake…that impressed me more then price of the shoes……definitely give these folks a chance to make you happy….you won’t be sorry…..”
“I purchased two sets of hotronic heated socks from the warming store on Jan 7 for my trip to Canada on Jan 12. I put a note in my order asking them to ship asap because I need these before the 12th for my trip to lake Louise ( it was going to be -40 degrees there! ) The store was so nice they shipped my package the same day in separate packages to make sure I'd receive it on time. 100% recommended !”
“It’s Always a VIBE when we’re at V & S Lanes. They staff are amazing. $2Tuesday Is a Blessing as it allows an affordable outting for the Family to get together and hang and create memories.(It would be nice if the kitcen was up and running). They also have the Pro Shop on premises so you can purchase equipment as well as getting your ball sized after purchasing. They also have a video game area with air hockey table and etc.”
“Excellent pro shop! I got refitted for a new ball after a LONG break from bowling and also had an old ball plugged/redrilled with the new specs. Steve is super nice, eager to nerd out on bowling and an extremely knowledgable PSO which is exactly what we need to keep this sport going. We figured out what I needed out of a ball, he gave me several options and price points that were all very reasonable. He's also been super helpful after the sale with some minor adjustments right then and there after I rolled a few with my new gear. My fit has been great so far and my game has improved almost instantly, it's amazing how much better bowling is with the right fit and the right ball. Green's is definitely on my list as a go-to, don't hesitate to check him out!”
“Out There has a great selection of outdoor apparel and accessories, many of which are hard to find elsewhere in the greater Philadelphia area. The staff is always friendly and helpful, and there’s a dog. Can’t ask for much more. Prices are competitive and there are several annual sales. One of my favorite stores in the region.”
“Frank is my guy. Liberty tactical has been my FFL for about 5 years now and he’s been nothing but helpful. My first firearm, I didn’t know how to clean it. Frank showed me how to take it disassemble and reassemble it right there and showed me what to look for online for refreshers. 10/10 service.”
“Every time I’ve been at lacrosse Unlimited in Ardmore, I have received the best customer service! Each of the staff have knowledge about the game and the equipment and they make it very easy to get what you need!”
“Cool store! I have been here to have items printed multiple times and they have always done a great job. The turn around time is quick and the owner and the staff are very professional and personable. I highly recommend Custom Creations for printing needs!”
“My two sons and I stopped in to peruse, and discovered a little gem of a store! Awesome vintage merchandise AND outstanding customer service. We purchased three hoodies. Shortly after we left, we discovered a small hole in my son’s hoodie. We had to catch a train so we couldn’t go back to exchange it. Plus, we live in Colorado, so we would not have an opportunity to go back before we left. I called the store and spoke to Destiny. She asked for my mailing address so that she could mail a new one out to us…AND, we didn’t even have to mail the damaged hoodie back to them. Within minutes, a tracking link was emailed to me.What excellent customer service!! It’s really hard to find this these days. Thanks again, Destiny!”
“The customer service was exemplary. From the young lady who gave us a warm welcome, the 2 young men that helped us with our selection, the associate who blessed us with a discount ?, and the pleasant cashier. Sadiq (i may have spelled his name wrong) but he was very helpful and knowledgeable. ????????”
“Excellent!! The sale person went above and beyond to get my teen fit in the right trainer for his flat, wide, big feet and the shoe just happened to be on sale! We had ordered a back up pair before we went in from the big "A" but returned it & will be returning to Bryn Mawr for cleats and 2nd pair of trainers. If you need help with fit and figuring out which type running shoe you need come here. Also it was highly recommended by son's HS track coaches.”
“Great experience at the Nike Factory Store! The staff was friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable, making the shopping process easy and enjoyable. The store was clean, well-organized, and had a wide selection of shoes, apparel, and accessories at excellent prices. I found some amazing deals on high-quality Nike gear, and checkout was quick and smooth. Definitely a go-to spot for anyone looking for great value and authentic Nike products. I’ll be back for sure!”
