Big fan of this "Mom & Pop" -type hardware store. Was given the advice I needed, purchased exactly the parts required, and returned what I did not need, no questions asked. Well-organized; friendly, knowledgable staff . . . a throwback to a time when local communities were defined by and thrived on the backs of such establishments . . . read more

This past summer, I bought a beautiful, used, large, all-wood kitchen table with its eight matching chairs. The only problem was, the large metal screws needed to connect the table's legs were missing. The seller had assured me the screws could easily be replaced, and I wanted to believe he was right. I really wanted that table. It would be perfect for my large kitchen, I thought. The next weekend, I went to The Home Depot, twice. No luck. No one there had ever seen the kind of screws that were needed. I hadn't been in a hardware store in years, but since I didn't know where else to go, I thought it was at least worth a try. I walked into True Value Hardware with one of the table legs, waited until it was my turn, and then explained what I was looking for. The elderly man who was waiting on me listened patiently, then took the leg I had been holding and said, "Well, let's see what we have" and disappeared behind a row of tall, well-stocked shelves. When he returned a few minutes later, the leg was fitted with a long, narrow metal screw. I couldn't believe it. The Home Depot had a long isle filled with drawers for different kinds of screws, but, apparently, none of them would have fit that table leg. Yet, this old-fashioned neighborhood hardware store, that can't begin to compare in size, somehow manages to stock the unusual screw. I thanked my helper (a few times), paid for the eight screws I needed (which, including the tax, cost less than $10), and walked out hardly believing my good luck. Since that time, I have been a true believer in the value of small neighborhood hardware stores, and I make a point of shopping at this one regularly. read more

This place is open on (some) bank holidays and they have what I need every time I need something weird that I don't think they would have, e.g. live mouse traps, vinyl pool patches. They cram a ton of inventory into their space and it's within walking distance to my apartment. I love shopping local instead of big box and AH is affordable. I have absolutely no complaints. read more

Local, family-owned hardware shop. They will have anything you may need, including if you walk in with a screw or piece in your hand and say "I'm not sure what this is, but it came from my _____ and I need a new one." They'll look at it and say, "Sure! One minute!" and pop back out with exactly what you need. Prices are good, considering it's a small-time shop and not Home Desperate. Staff is friendly and pleasant. read more

Great local hardware store. Even though not very large seems to have almost everything. Very helpful staff. My family loves this place.

Great Hardware store, been coming here for many years (from the early days of the original store a few stores down) They always have everything I need and the plus is that they'll help you with information to do a project right. Family owned and everything a hardware store should be read more

Always have what I need. It's a good feeling to support a local mom and pop, than go to the big box store. Look for cool impulse items at the register. Always cool stuff. read more

Atlantic hardware ALWAYS has what I need, and if they don't, they will order it for you. I especially like the welcoming atmosphere of the store. You can ask them a question and you will get an answer, unlike going to the "big box stores", where you first have to hunt down an employee to ask them the question and then sometimes they don't even have an answer for you. I like shopping at a local store, it helps them as well as my community. read more

I love this store- it is run by a father and his daughters, so as a woman you don't feel stupid asking a question, like you do in the Home Depot that's up the road. Always helpful, always nice read more
