“Stopped in today for my first time and was not disappointed. Loads of high quality fly fishing equipment for the beginner & expert alike. Mike went above & beyond to help me with all of my questions as someone who is new to fly fishing & I walked out of there confident in my purchase & looking forward to my next visit. Thank you guys.”
“Great place for your fishing needs and they are my first choice to fill my propane tanks as well. Consistently reliable is the best way to describe Quaker Lane Bait & Tackle.”
“I have been to Wakefield Running multiple times over the past couple of years. Mary has always been super professional and helpful towards me. This place has great costumer service and great products!”
“Recently purchased an exercise bike from Precision Fitness in Hanover and I couldn't be more pleased. The store manager, Mike Crum, was personable, patient and very knowledgeable as he guided my wife and I through the purchase. By the time we decided on the model we were very comfortable that we had the best bike for our needs. The delivery and setup was also very professional. I look forward to returning to Precision Fitness for any future fitness related gear”
“Wow! This store is a must stop for anyone in Newport. My family not only got some great gear to use sailing and day to day, but our experience was memoriable Virginia, was amazing, she was well versed in all of the products, was very helpful with my wife as she was selecting vests and other gear. She also guided us on other local attractions to check out with our kids. Going Above and beyond. We had actually left an item at the store and Virginia helped ship it back to us, with a lovely personal note. If anyone from **Gill Management** is reading this, know, you've got an amazing associate with Virginia. I reccomend anyone in Newport stop by the Gill store, they have great products and a team there that exceeds expectations.”
“In October 2025, I was heading to our home in Southern Florida for the winter. The boss (my wife) gave me the go ahead to look for an upgrade of my road bike. I was looking for a specific Specialized model and the only local bike shop who had my size and model was Ten Spokes. I spoke with the owner, Tom Kearns who was professional and accommodating. I called on a Friday at 3:50PM and his store was closing at 5:00. He told me not to worry and that he'd wait for me to drive there. With fall traffic, it took me over an hour and he waited for me. That's service to me. He had the bike ready for me to test ride and told me to take my time. With the ride and purchase, I didn't get out of there until 6:00PM. Again, that's service. He didn't rush me, he let me ask all the questions I had and offered clear and concise answers. With all of the options to purchase a bike, go and talk to Tom and his staff at Ten Spokes. They all get an A+. Update: Bikes like cars and every other product can have issues. The difference is when the store you buy something from stands behind their product. I'm having an issue with a rear cassette. My local bike shop in Florida handled it like most shops. I'll sell you a new one and you can go after the manufacturer (SRAM). I called Tom at Ten Spokes and he told me to ship the cassette to him and he'll talk to the SRAM rep and figure out if there's a warranty issue. Going the extra mile is what Tom does.”
“Run Newport is everything you want in a local running shop and more. The owners are the best! Incredibly welcoming and genuinely invested in building a strong, inclusive running community in Newport. You can feel it the second you walk in. The shop is stocked with all the latest and greatest gear in the running world, and the staff takes the time to make sure you’re fitted right and confident in what you’re buying. Great people, great energy, great community.”
“Kyle! Had to share our 1st class experience purchasing a new 10 ft FCS Day cover from Warm Winds today. Kyle was knowledgeable and helpful. He brought the bag outside to test the fit to our longboard. Friendly, helpful, attentive, not pushy, polite. Thanks Kyle!”
“Great trip! Hooked tuna non stop! Loved everything about it; the boat, the knowledge, the history, Andy (the captain) and his pleasant demeanor, his son AJ as mate with his experience and pure enthusiasm! They both went the extra mile and everyone had a great adventure with the top gear and many fish!”
“The manager is a Patagonia “veteran” and can tell you pretty much anything you want to know about the company. If you appreciate the brand and company it’s worth stopping by just for a chat with her.”
“Had a wonderful experience yesterday I wasn’t quite sure on sizes the lady Im sorry I’m terrible with names but she was fantastic even helped find the right color shoe for my daughter great price and fantastic customer service!”
“Absolute must visit for any sailor in the area. They have an excellent student discount for ISCA and ISSA sailors looking to get a discount on their favorite name brands. Their customer service is great with someone always greeting me in the store to assist with my shopping.”
