The gun shop portion of this Cabela's is just horrible. Not only do they NOT tell you that you MUST take a number in order to be served, but they are severely understaffed so you will wait a very long time to have a sales clerk assist you when one is finally available. The gun staff is so uninterested in serving you that when we got a brick of .22 ammo that was so very defective in quality that it was unusable, when we tried to do an exchange, they could care less because of their return policy (can't return ammunition). We asked for an exchange but they would not even do that. The only thing they would do for us was to give us a $10 gift card on a $40 box of unusable ammo. And they could care less about the next guy who buys this crappy ammo. This is not a store I would ever return to. I have been to several other Cabela's but will never come back to this one. Too bad I can't give it a negative 1 or 0 stars for a rating. Save your money for a mom and pop shop, they deserve your business and would have taken care of our issue no questions asked. read more

Their prices are in line with any other large chain retailer so I've never been sticker shocked. This store seems to always have good stock for reloading components to include some of the niche rounds. On two occasions I've walked out of the store with really good discounts on a nice high end Sitka jacket at great price (from bargain cave) and a high end scope that prices would've matched any deal from an online vendor. The staff has been mixed. Fortunately I don't go to any big chain stores for my expert advice. Some of the staff is knowledgeable and some clearly not but that's no different than any other place I've actually worked for with coworkers. So bottom line is don't expect this store to behave like the boutique online vendors that specialize in one area and or bottom barrel prices. But when I've need/wanted something same day it's worked out well with some surprise deals to boot. read more

Great store.. entire staff.. I am disabled.. staff assisting me in my shopping needs.. I can pay my bill at the store.. always professional.. recommendation is high by me. read more

I know theirs a nation wide ammunition shortage but it could be handled better . Hand out the ammo so no one abuses the limitations . If the web page say you have ammo but do do not see it, the customer service is RUDE!!! No eye contact just if you do see it we don't have it. Facebook pages are even commenting how rude the employees are. I will go with out rather than go there and be disappointed or talked rude to read more

Let's start off, overpriced. Their staff is not very knowledgeable. Gotta love the staff that acts conscending when you have to explain to them their own merchandise. Have you ever stood in a checkout line for 20 minutes? If not, go to this Cabelas for that thrill. Otherwise, I would recommend trying to find better place to buy your hunting gear, guns, and ammo. read more

Francis in the fishing department went above and beyond to help me today. I needed some components for some surf fishing rigs, not big dollar items, but he took the extra time to make sure the components would work together. They were sold out of a lot of terminal tackle, but with Francis's five minutes of help I am assembling perfect rigs today. read more

I went on tonight to spend a $300 gift card my mother gave me. I decided to order a nice fire pit but every time went to 'check out' it wouldn't except my address. I tried to place my order four (4) different times. Too confusing, and perhaps you don't want me to spend $300 on the gift card you've already been paid? read more

Standing in line for checkout, I walk up to the register and the clerk walks away from me without saying a word. Extremely rude. The whole checkout area seems discombobulated without management oversight. I left my items (several) on a table and walked out. read more

Has gone downhill since Bass Pro took over. Ammo selection is not what it was, prices are Up, they have no New Footwear in stock, and the clothes are not Made. Not the same store. Used to luv Going there, not anymore. Disappointing read more

I grew up near (and worked at) the Cabelas in Hamburg, PA, which you can spend hours at just to see everything, so I was less than impressed with this location. Size aside, I was here to find some essentials for camping and was shocked by the pricing. A lot of the prices are marked way up, I'm assuming because of the merger with Bass Pro Shops? Either way, I don't think I'd shop here again any time soon. read more

I was wide eyed walking around Cabela's before a cold weather camping trip. We ended up getting Cabela's MTP Base layers, heavy weight for me and polar weight for my life partner. The heavy weight worked perfectly for me, she was kept super warm and dry (barely any whining throughout the weekend in below freezing weather). I was a little disappointed that they didn't carry the Klean insulated canteen that I was looking for. A couple times we needed an associate to ask for directions in the gigantic store. I wish the signs were a little more visible, or maybe a map would be helpful. I love the selection of polarized sunglasses here. I am ticked that I forgot to pick up a pair. read more

I must commend the Cabela's at the Christiana Mall. They have Santa's workshop and its absolutely beautifully done! The kids are able to go see Santa, talk to him and get their picture taken.....for FREE! Yes they sell packages if you would like more copies but if you just want the one....its FREE! Then once their picture is taken and they have told Santa EVERYTHING they want, they can sit at the tables and work on a variety of crafts....8ish inch wooden Elf ornament (they color it with markers) a drawstring bag that says Merry Christmas and a wooden puzzle to color too! All at no cost! And the best part of it all was the pleasant elves hosting the workshop! So nice, talked to the kids, sat and colored and offered the letter to Santa for the kids to write out and put in Santas REAL mailbox! When the Christmas season is rough on the pocket and hard on the emotions, places/events like this that make the kids so happy really help ya get through it! Thanks #cabelas @cabelas read more

Save your money and time and just get it from somewhere else that's actually knows what there talking about and that will help you.

I've been to the Cabela's stores in Hamburg and East Hartford. I've long waited for one that is closer to home and finally, here it is! This store is smaller than the aforementioned two locations though, so they don't have as much. However, there still is a lot to see here. And thank goodness for the helpful sales associates because for some weird reason, Garmin GPSes are scattered in a half dozen places within the store depending on model and it took a bit of effort to locate the specific one that I was looking for. read more

I love this store. Its akin to going to toys'r'us as a kid if you are at all interested in outdoor activities, hunting, camping, firearms, clothes, you name it. The ambiance and set up is likewise themed and makes it that much more awesome. Finally, a Cabelas less than an hour away! read more

This is one of my favorite stores! I went there with my mom and neice, about a month ago, on a Saturday. The store was bustling with customers; children, schools, and special interest groups. My neice, 26, was having a great time. I was enjoying the wonderful store as well. I was happy and smiling but I began to notice that many of the patrons were stonefaced in their looks towards me. At first, I thought it to be a misperception on my part. The salespeople were diverse, engaging and smiling. I was approached with a salespitch for a timeshare trip and I bought; all was well. However, as we continued to shop the faces continued to contort; I felt an icy contempt from several ( more than 5) Caucasian females and a few Caucasian couples; mind you, not all patrons. The store cashiers did not exude this temperament. I had been staying in Delaware since December 2022 and have had many of these encounters as I have shopped and conducted business in that State.​ read more

If your looking for lots of gear that says Cabelas all over it and is made in China come here. Otherwise do some research and buy American made quality gear. read more

Good place, I can't really say anything bad about this place, they had everything a bass pro shop store normally has

Without prior knowledge, I thought Cabelas would be an outdoor version of Dicks but they're an authentic hunter, camper and prepper's paradise as EVERYTHING you can think of is stocked. Its an adventure to walk through the store and just look. Look overhead and you find stuffed game and there's a humongous fish tank stocked with trout, salmon and other fish. Guns and ammo are sold on premise but security procedures are enforced and you must check-in and secure guns before entering. Cabelas offers a range of classes and they have a small archery booth to try out bows before purchase. Every non-urban mall needs a Cabelas. read more

I went when it was still new. The staff was clearly very new as one man walked away when I walked over to an area. I have been in customer service myself a while and understand being nervous but I still say hello to customers even when nervous. The store Compared to the PA one this place is small. The tax cut is nice but the PA one has a wonderful ride to and from the store. This place does not. I would only go back to get something very expensive. If the store was bigger I would go more often. Field & Stream was better then this store. read more

I placed an online order on 12/16 for a Christmas present. The order was canceled but they never notified me. I called customer service agent was pleasant enough but took no ownership and did nothing to make this mistake of theirs right. Will absolutely never use this store again. read more

I love Cabela's! It is a friendly and happy place to buy outdoor equipment and hunting supplies. The Christiana store is huge and if you need it but can't find it at Cabela's then it doesn't exist. My only complaint is that they have been subject to some shortages of specific ammo over the years which shouldn't have happened due to the large volume of their sales. Don't get me started on this complaint because I won't be kind to the conspiracy jobs that have caused the shortages! I like the fact that Cabela's is family friendly without turning hunting into an NRA advertisement. I go to Cabela's whenever I need hunting, fishing, or outdoor supplies! read more

Horrible service! I ordered a Christmas gift for my husband on November 27 and it is going to be delivered on December 28! It was not on sale and was in stock, I called Cabelas 3 times and they said they would check on it and call me back. They never did. read more

I believe Cabelas online store (www.cabelas.com) is using misleading images of a popular product to sell a product that they cannot move honestly at this time. I attempted to purchase .410 shotgun ammunition and received 12 gauge ammunition. The image showed a box of .410 ammo and the listing was marked as .410. The boxes received also had 15 fewer shells than the listing image. When I complained they told me the image warns "*Image may not represent product selected" But I have a copy of the image taken from their site and there is no such warning, not that it would excuse misleading customers. Further, I know based on my experience with the industry that .410 has become extremely hard to find. I have seen sites selling boxes of .410 shells for as much as $700. I have also seen many shelves emptied of .410 and full of 12 gauge at the same time. I hope to prevent others from falling prey to this deceptive practice and dissuade online merchants from behaving in this way. read more

A bit smaller than the ones we have in WA state. The deli doesn't have a grill for burgers... Bargain cave was well stocked and lots of cool stuff on sale. Great for the outdoor hunter/fisherman. Not so great for hikers/campers compared to REI. read more

An outdoorsman's mecca! I make the pilgrimage every time I pass through Delaware. Lots of options in just about every category. I spend a ton of time drooling at the pistol cabinets. There's even a collectors room with a lot of classics on display. The reason I didn't give this place 5 stars is because the service has never really been friendly... no bad experiences, but no great ones either. read more

Cabellas told me they watched me on cameras and I was acting "suspicious" because I was talking on my phone and l "said the name of the gun" I was looking to purchase before I got to the counter so I was denied sale because I gave them the impression I was a "straw buyer" totally unaware you could point a straw buyer out by looking at them First of all, I was discriminated against because I'm a young black female without a man on my arm telling me what gun to look for and how to work it... 2nd - I blame stupid bitches that buy guns for idiots that are prohibited! It's not one sided, but I shouldn't have been chosen out of about 20 people that were in the same area because of those reasons ‍ but, I kept cool and took my business elsewhere.. I wouldn't buy a gun for none of these scuz bucket, prohibited ass dummies I don't know how to NOT act suspicious , because I don't practice ‍just cuz I don't wanna slaughter animals, doesn't mean I can't attempt to protect myself and my family! ‍ read more

Gun counter is a joke. No sense of urgency whatsoever. Some of the individuals have no idea what they are doing. Not all, but a few prob shouldn't be working here. lol I spent well over an hour just picking up a shotgun I purchased online. Couldn't find it, the lady had no clue what she was doing. read more

Went to Cabelas to buy a box of arrows for my dad and myself. They seemed pretty busy last weekend so I asked to have them cut and ready for pick up the following weekend. We drove the hour ride home and opened the box to find that the arrows they cut are just slathered with glue and were all stuck together in the box and glued to the box. I spent a good amount on these arrows and the last I wanted was for them to be COVERED in glue. I tried calling and got no response. I'm not happy and will be going to the Cabelas in PA. read more

The Christiana store never fails to disappoint me. The general manager has to go if the store wants to survive. The young staff intentionally avoids you and has ZERO knowledge or interest in the outdoors. I have been to many stores throughout the country and love them all except the one where I live! They stock items which have no use in the area and don't stock what does. There is a serious lack of leadership and aside from a few actual outdoor guys this store would be as much of an outdoors store as Kohl's. I know this store has piles of complaints like mine so please do something about it, because I can't come back and deal with it anymore. I'll drive 3 hours to Hamburg if I want to go to a Cabelas, or I'll just shop at M read more

File under fiction... Cabela's has the worst customer service I have ever experienced. To be honest, it shouldn't even be called customer service. Negotiating a car is less of a hassle. I attempted to warranty out a pair of socks, allegedly backed by a lifetime warranty. The socks had only been used a few times, and the materials failed. The store manager flat out refused to honor the warranty, and had the gall to say that the "lifetime warranty" was only applicable to a product that is brand new. Seriously!? Cabela's has permanently lost a customer. Their lifetime warranty is apparently a work of fiction. To make things even better, items I was given for Christmas were credited at a rate lower than cost, because I didn't have the gift receipt. read more

I drove down to this cabelas from PA to purchase a trolling motor and depth finder for a boat i just bought. I was looking for trolling motors on display and asked one of the sales people where they were he said not all were on display if I know the one I want, he will go get it from the back, I asked how would I know which one I want without knowing about them , he just shrugged with a confused look and said I should go over to the window and get a catalog to look at them, I went over to the window and asked for a catalog and Kathy said they don't have marine catalogs and I should go up front and lookup the online site with the computer in customer service. When I said maybe I should just order online and avoid the store, since they have nothing to offer, she told me i should in a very sarcastic voice. My second trip to Cabelas in 10 years, with my first trip ending in dissatisfaction, it will probably another 10 years before i waste another trip. I'll spend my money elsewhere read more

SEXIST DISCRIMINATORY CAVEMAN working at gun counter- Take your money elsewhere! My husband and I have spent $3000 in the last three months at this particular store in the gun department alone. I made the mistake of walking into the store after work dressed up in high heels and a fur coat. I inquired about a particular gun I had recently been told about while shooting at the target range and instantly Caveman goes into a panic attack shaking his head back-and-forth chanting no, no, no... "I'm not comfortable selling this to you, no". I was stunned, confused and had no idea what was going on .....My initial thought was maybe he didn't think I could handle the gun!?! So I responded, "oh I'm getting it for my husband". WELL, my ability to handle the gun was apparently NOT his concern because now he used THAT statement as his excuse for not selling me the gun! Now he says that he "doesn't know if my husband is legal to have a gun." I told him that he could look up both myself AND my husband, both at the same address, look us up in the system and see that we have purchased from this very counter and these very sales people time and time again. He tried to claim that they have no record of what you purchase there! Give me a break! Walmart can tell me when I bought toilet paper and how much! So it literally was all about the fact that I didn't look the part! I told him so! I told him that he was discriminating on me because I'm a woman and I look like a girly girl today. I asked if I had to go put my camo on to be sold a gun the same way I have been every other time. I finally walked away to try and calm down and then it occurred to me that I have countless videos of me on the gun range with my semi automatics! So I reapproached the counter... Caveman was not there- must've been beating something out back for dinner... And another staff person heard me out, and was allowing me to look at the gun when caveman's bestie chimes in that I'm purchasing a gun for somebody else and that store law won't let me make the purchase! I told them that I only mentioned my husband because he wouldn't sell to me in the first place! I also mentioned that my gun rack is in my room that my husband and I have equal access to. I then laid down my phone with the video clips of me shooting my assault rifle... Also dressed like a girly girl in my fur vest and high heels! I was told I could talk to a manager if I wanted reconsideration. I decided that what I really want is to go home and find all of my receipts and gather up all my merchandise and return all of this overpriced crap! So if you guys are looking to purchase from men that have better manners and do a better job waiting on taxidermy animals then providing equal opportunity customer service to your lovely bride... then you are in the right place. But if you want your woman to be treated with respect and not to be looked at like a piece of meat then there are plenty of other places in town willing to sell guns! And for a lot less money I should add! I'll see you there!! Heck, I'll probably be able to get this thousand dollar gun for $700 elsewhere anyhow, thanks Cabelas!! read more

I could walk around this place forever. It isn't as big as some of the other locations, but the staff is always friendly and sales are good. Love Cabela's! read more

Went downhill since bass pro took over. Hunting and ammo section is half the size and prices are high.

Don't go to Cabela's in Christiana if you are purchasing any type of firearm. I mistakenly purchased a 22 rifle here and went on Cabela's online after the purchase. I found they had 2 SKU's for the same item and I was charged the higher price. I returned to the store and pointed out the issue and asked for a partial refund. I spent 30 minutes reviewing the specs with an associate who agreed with me. He went to speak with his manager (Cameron) and returned by himself and told me they had differences "internally". It was absolutely a lie made up to refuse issuing $120 credit. Shame on you Cabelas in Christiana. *update* after significant pressure Cabela's issued a $60 credit. It's not the $120 refund I thought was the right thing to do - but it was better than nothing and raised my review to 2 stars. read more
