Since I found no reviews of any kind on Olde Shrewsbury Village I wanted to briefly recall the…read morehistory and use the last paragraph to give a current description. By doing so the reader will understand my rating. To use a current saying , "it is what it is" but it is certainly not what it was! On my last visit I noticed even the word "Olde" was dropped from the signage. Designed ahead of its time Olde Shrewsbury was a unique outdoor off price center built in the 1980s. The "shoppes" were designed to resemble an old English village with their brick, stucco with dark wood exteriors which lined a wide brick walk way. In many ways the village resembled a hybrid of the outdoor life style centers and discount outlets which are so popular today. The Christmas Tree Shop and Decelle were the orginal anchors which shared a 2 story building. The Christmas Tree Shops were originally created as well maintained discount "gift shops" and this location rivaled the compmany's flagship location . The imposing building reflected the C.T.S. original owner's pride. A large lobby with a water fountain and a ceiling decorated with a lighted star constellation (spot lights) greeted visitors. On the lower level Decelles, a New England owned discounted department store chain, on par with Mashalls offered many upscaled brands at great prices (I still recall the Burberry's shirt I bought for around $20 dollars). This upscale discount surrounding set the tone for the rest of the stores. Steps away Newport Creamery, a Rhode Island ice cream/ coffee shop chain offered indoor table service meals along with outdoor picnic tables. In addition, a few store fronts up a gourmet cafe, which was a 1980s staple in many places, offered fresh flavored coffees (grounded not flavor shots), fancy desserts and sandwiches. Completeing the center were smaller company owned discount outlets, like Swank, a maker of leather belts and wallets, and some gift shops. These village's stores were new to this immediate and often drew crowds on the weekends. Unfortunately, business must have declined after a few years for a number of factors. First, a newer larger discount designer mall opened in nearby Worester (no longer there) followed a super sized premium outlet about 40 minutes away. In addtion, the stores unique to this region went out of business including The Newport Creamery, Decelle, along with some smaller one of a kind stores. More recently, newer shopping centers and discount stores have opened nearby. In response to declining business, the Olde Shrewburry owners tore down a large portion of the quaint shops to open the center to rt 9 and create more of a big box shopping center and painted over the orginal buildings with bright pastel colors to attract new businesses and shoppers. Today, the village is more like a power center . A large Jo Ann' s Fabric Store and Sear Outlet Store ocuppy the western half of the center. The former Newport Creamery now houses a Cape Cod Crafter, an assignment gift store. A Yankee Candle Store (retail not outlet I believe) is located next to The Christmas Tree Shop. The once welcoming lobby of this anchor lacks its former luster. The water fountain is turned off (on my last visit anyway), the ceililing star concellation no longer (painted over?) in use and an array of sale merchadise sady crowd the entry way much like a indoor yard sale (see review for Christmas Tree Shop Shrewsbury). Decelle on the lower level which was replaced by a Burlington Coat Factory now is vacant, as the latter business relocated in a near by plaza. Ironically, beside the Christmas Tree Shop the little gourmet cafe remains. Thought the menu has changed, and possibly the owners, the decor, along with the tables and chairs are original. Stopping in for a soft drink and snack may give a shopper a reminder or an idea of what Olde Shrewburry Village once was.While this center may be no better or worst than the others the village is no longer the "tourist drawn" unique, upscale, discount center the place was created to be.

One of the most horrible experiences you can have in a store in 10 mins while doing an in store…read morepick up order that was already paid for! The manager? Nasty attitude and dismissive! I walked in and there were two employees at the front desk blowing up balloons for ONE customer. I've worked retail all my life, you don't need TWO anything blowing up balloons for ONE customer when there are others in the store needing to be serviced! After maybe two mins of just standing there, the employee who I later found out through requesting a managers name that she was in fact the manager, she turns around and asks me what do I need, not a "Hello welcome in!" NOTHING! Like I owe her something. I tell her my last name for my pick up and she says "give me a few" and proceeds to help the boy staff member trying to get balloons that he let float to the ceiling! After maybe another 8 mins, she asks me for my last name AGAIN then proceeded to tell me that she didn't have an order for me after I showed her the email that said it was ready at that location and paid for so she walks off to the back then comes back to the front with my bag, no apology for the wait or her confusion on her part as I sat and watched her give the woman free balloons for her patience and her wait! Low value service, no one else even attempted to chime in and assist and when I said something to her about it, she dismissed me and cut me right off during me telling her that that is not the way you deal with customers ESPECIALLY as a manager! I'll be sure to never return there as that was my first and very last experience! All of that for $7 headphones for my son?! I could've ordered from Amazon on my prime and got them next day with no hassle! Which I'll be doing moving forward! Pathetic store!
