    THE WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE EVER. Very rude for no reason. The most ghetto stores I've encountered. Hardly anything stock just the worst smh

    For some reason, I had a heck of a time trying to find this place but once I walked in, I felt an…read moreoverwhelming sense of nostalgia. A friend has a daughter who is into tap, and shoes by Jason Samuels Smith are sold exclusively through Bloch so I was looking forward to seeing what they had in-store, in addition to some items for myself. Even though I walked into a rather busy shop, I was greeted by a sweet girl right away, and she brought out shoes and some pants I was interested in. There is only one fitting room so there will be a wait if there are more than a few people looking to try on dance/activewear. What fascinated me was watching someone get fitted for pointe shoes, and this took me back so long ago even though I was fitted at a different brand. A cool customer nearby gave me her opinion on the sizing of some pants I was hesitating to try (she teaches over at Alvin Ailey, so I'm taking her word for it) and then she was called over to assist with the fitting. Everyone here seemed to know one another and it made me think of how small the dance world really is. Sadly after trying on the shoes and pants, neither worked but I know I can order the pants online in the size and color I desired. As for the tap shoes, they had the basics (my favorite being the classic black and white oxfords) but the current seasonal color was...yellow. The daughter gave a definite no to those, so my work here was done. Even though I left empty-handed, it was great going down memory lane here at Bloch.

    I came here for a pointe shoe fitting and the person who fit me, Lauren (I think) was wonderful,…read moreextremely knowledgeable, and super helpful in helping me find the right fitting shoe. Would definitely come back.

    I had such an amazing experience at Lululemon in Midtown Manhattan, and I had to shout out Amanda…read moreand Destiny for making it unforgettable. From the moment I walked in, they were both incredibly welcoming, knowledgeable, and genuinely invested in helping me find exactly what I needed. Amanda took the time to really understand what I was looking for and gave thoughtful recommendations that actually fit my style and needs (not just trying to sell me anything). Destiny was just as amazing--super attentive, upbeat, and made the whole experience feel fun and effortless. What stood out most was how natural and authentic they both were. You can tell they truly care about the customer experience, and it made a huge difference. It didn't feel like shopping--it felt like getting styled by friends who actually know their stuff. If you're going to this location, do yourself a favor and ask for Amanda and Destiny. They absolutely set the standard for what great customer service should look like. I'll definitely be coming back because of them!

    I'm not sure who helped me, but on my receipt it says Cashier #99994000225069. She was absolutely…read moreamazing--so friendly, helpful, and welcoming. She made genuine connections with her guests and even gave compliments that made the experience feel so personal. The store was also very clean and organized, with plenty of associates available to help. I never felt pressured while shopping, which made the experience even better. I loved it here and will definitely be coming back!
