Hart

Hours: Hart Stores Inc. is a leading operator of mid-sized department stores in Eastern Canada. The company currently operates over 100 stores across the provinces of Ontario, Quebec, New Brunswick, and Nova Scotia. The innovative Hart team manages its head offices from its two locations in Montreal and Laval. Customers describe Hart as an economic store with a bit of a bric-a-brac feel, but one where they can make great discoveries, particularly in the bedding selection. While the store is quite large, the clothing selection could be improved, with a need for more brand choices. The service provided by the store's employees has received mixed reviews, with some customers finding the staff to be less than helpful, especially the manager encountered during one visit. However, the store does offer hassle-free refunds, which has been appreciated by at least one customer. Overall, Hart Stores provides a diverse shopping experience, offering customers the opportunity to find unexpected treasures, despite some shortcomings in the areas of customer service and product selection.
