“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 ??”
“Best tackle store in the area by far. The guys working there are extremely helpful and nice. Doesn't matter what species you're going after, they have everything you need. And more. Can't say enough good things about this place”
“I had taken my Mother to see Mr. Hugh Gbewonyo for unbalanced gait and severe painful arthritis. He greeted her with kindness and was very professional. After scanning her foot he explained what was happening to her anatomically as she walks. He custom designed orthotics and appropriate footwear. She felt "like she had new feet" and could not thank him enough for the support and encouraging words. God bless this young man. P.s. he has a newspaper article posted that further speaks of his skill and his journey into this field. Thank you Mr. Gbewonya.”
“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”
“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!!!”
“I visited Born To Run in October 2024, after a coworker recommended I check out the store while I was looking for a new pair of running shoes. With Hilary’s (and her sweet dog’s!) help, I bought a pair of Saucony Triumphs. Now that I’ve put some mileage on them over the past months, I’m ready to leave a review.
Having just started running in March 2024 and moving to Philadelphia from out of state in August 2024, it’s safe to say that I had absolutely no idea what I was looking for in a new pair of running shoes. My visit to Hilary’s store was my first time buying a pair of running shoes—before that, I’d just been using my all-around walking shoes. Hilary was generous enough to share her time, knowledge, and expertise with me. First, she had me do a running test to figure out where my feet were striking the ground. Then, she gathered an assortment of many shoes, and guided me through trying them on. She even educated me about shoe sizing—and I learned that I’d be better off wearing a half size smaller than I was previously used to. I landed on a pair of Saucony Triumphs. Throughout the process, Hilary was friendly and kind. When she learned I’d just moved to Philadelphia from out of state, she even recommended some local running groups I could get involved with to help me find a sense of community with other runners in the area.
Months later, after having run in the Saucony Triumphs for a while, I’m quite happy with my purchase. The shoes took a while to break in, but once broken in, they transitioned into a smooth ride. I’ve been especially pleased with Hilary’s recommendation to go a half size down from what I’d normally wear. I’ve never been known for my athleticism—I’m pretty clumsy and can tend to wobble a bit while running. I’ve found, though, that the half size smaller shoes hold a bit tighter to my foot—while still giving them enough space to breathe—and helps to stabilize me while I’m running. That was quite the pleasant surprise!
All around, I was thoroughly happy with my experience working with Hilary at Born To Run. While I’ve since moved back to the state I originally moved to Philadelphia from, I would support Born To Run again in a heartbeat if I still lived in the area. Keep up the great work, Hilary—you helped this new runner find his way about the trail, and that’s much appreciated!”
“Each time I visit Motions, I am greeted and immediately asked if I need some help. Regardless of the time of the year, the staff makes you feel like your purchase deserves their attention.”
“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.”
“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!”

“Just went here over the weekend for my sons soccer gear and was very happy with both the prices, the select products and the salespeople were also very helpful and nice. Walked out with everything i needed for $55 not bad at all!”
“I visited Valley Forge Running Company in Collegeville and worked with Jim, who was so helpful and made the whole experience of finding the right shoes pleasant. I left with what I felt were really the right fitting shoes for me. He was very attentive and even had some good advice and taught me a few things about shoes that will make a huge difference in how I wear them and my resulting comfort.”
“Streamlight definitely has some of the best customer service around. Thank you for making the warranty process on my tlr6 such an easy process. I own several Streamlight products and this was my first very small issue and it was handled extremely professionally. I'll continue to buy your products based on quality and your awesome customer service that was provided..... Thanks Streamlight”
“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!”
“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!”
“Brian was working the register. He greeted me with a warm smile and set me up with a membership. He made the process both positive and expeditious. Would recommend to others.”
“Love the layout of the new store, was able to find exactly what I wanted very easily. I especially want to commend the staff, Michael helped me and he brought a wonderful energy!”
“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!”
“Maddie was great for my beginner! She sized her up and gave her great advice and was so patient and kind! Has the best time and we are excited for this new adventure. Definitely will be back!”
“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.”
“The building could use some upgrades but it was a fun atmosphere. The selection of bowling balls was limited so it's best to bring your bowling ball. Despite these shortcomings, the acoustics were great, and the lanes worked and were clean.”
“Online order and picked it up. No problems. If you're into local college and pro teams, they have a ton of stuff for many teams! The store is packed with merchandise!”
“I usually need a new pair of running shoes every two years or so, and Valley Forge Running Co. is the only place I will go for a replacement pair. I have never had anything but great experiences at both locations. The staff is very knowledgeable, friendly, and passionate about running and running gear.”
“I want to congratulate whoever hires and trains the staff here. I've never experienced better customer service, and, at 70, I've been shopping for decades. I came in with a friend who was coat shopping. While I was there, I figured I'd try to find straight legged spandex pants similar to the Lululemon pants I've been wearing for years but that have been discontinued. Madison immediately understood what I needed and did everything necessary to make that happen for me. And it wasn't easy. She ended up having to order them from another store, after trying to find a pair in the store, and online, and striking out both times. But she kept on it and made it happen. And honestly when she succeeded she seemed just as happy about it as I was. EVERY SINGLE STAFF MEMBER I encountered as I tried clothing on and asked for different colors and sizes was helpful, caring and well-informed. And unlike some clothing stores with a younger vibe, even though I'm a senior, I felt welcomed and appreciated.”
“Recently moved to the area and we bought all our baseball gear here over the last couple weeks. Had a great experience with Steve yesterday and went extra mile to find us the perfect ball glove for my son The along with the steam hammer great customer from STEVE.”
“Going, Going, Gone in King of Prussia is definitely worth a stop if you’re hunting for deals on name-brand sports and casual gear. It’s one of those outlet-style stores where the stock changes all the time, so it’s kind of like a treasure hunt each visit. You’ll find everything from sneakers and golf apparel to workout clothes, team hats, and random sports accessories. Prices are usually marked down pretty heavily, and if you catch the right timing, you can score some big-name items at a fraction of the original cost. The layout is straightforward, and it’s easy to browse without feeling overcrowded. Staff is friendly but mostly keep out of your way, which I actually like when bargain shopping. It’s located near plenty of restaurants and shopping in the King of Prussia area, so it’s convenient to make it part of a day out. Great spot if you love hunting for solid deals!”
“Super cool staff at kids footlocker Springfield . By far the best footlocker I’ve been to in the city! Everyone is so chill and eager to to help me find what I’m looking for!”
“I came here looking for used hockey gear - stick, skates, and pads. The staff greeted me and helped us out as if they were our personal helpers. There was one guy who gave us tips and tricks to find the right gear to suit playing style and frequency, and spent easily half an hour working closely with us. On one piece of gear, a tab was missing. He found a spare and took the time to install it for us. The store sharpened and baked the skates, which was super helpful. They even wrapped the new-to-us stick. The store was filled with gear, it was clean, and we got served better than I expected. Exceeded expectations all around.”
“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.”
