Phoned up to see if the shop was open and asked for a price. 12 quid each for altering the hems on five pairs of trousers, one pair had already been trimmed to length so just needed turning up and sewing; to the young mans credit he said he'd take 10% off so it was 54 pounds. Had asked if he would do five for four as one pair didn't need much and then got a long speech about because of Covid they had lost a lot of business, it was a dying trade, he might end up loosing his car/ house/ job e.c.t and although I indulge people in shops in conversation didn't really feel I needed that kind of \angst\ and became quiet flustered. Said that I'd have to wait a couple of days for one of the \machinists\ to come in and do them. Anyway, at the end of the week I went in to check (the phone number on the slip your given wasn't written down right) Tried them out for length two pairs were still too long, my fault, it's difficult to work it out when you measure yourself. Saw the father in the shop and he said that it really wasn't down to them if I hadn't measured right, I asked if he could turn the existing hem up half an inch and run a stitch through, said he would,..OK..went to the shop(Tues) and the lad was there and said we're closing this afternoon for the lock down. Got the opinion that he knew what it was about because he was smirking to the point of laughing. After all that! It was the attitude that you are \done unto\ and that you were there at their behest that really \got up my hooter.\ Will have to find some one with a sewing machine, or take it up myself,..would have been as quick and a lot cheaper;...Maybe go to Saval Row London instead;..Attitude...

Found the staff friendly. They took in a dress for me. Excellent service.
Absolutely brilliant, always happy, quality of work is superb never had a job they couldn't do for me, just the best, I wouldn't go anywhere else.
Terrible. Got a jacket shortened here. Paid 19 and waited five days to pick it up. When I did I found it was work more akin to something your sewing savy grandma would do than something you'd pay for. Edges not pressed, corners not mitred, double tucks visible along the stitch, and worst of all didn't even adjust the split at the back, leaving me with a comical little wedge cut out of my coat. Absolutely abysmal. Couldn't recommend to anybody.
