Fantastic friendly service, with real attention to detail. The folks here really know their stuff, which was helpful for someone as fashion-blind as me. Highly recommended over the large chains that just don't offer this kind of service without costing an arm and a leg. 10/10, will definitely use again.

Owner was very rude and arrogant toward me . This was not while in the shop but he seems to think it was ok to park across 2 disabled parking spaces. When I questioned him he was rude and questioned my disability. I wouldnt use this place and have recommended family and friends dont either, with the way he has no regard to disabled people.
