It's set in a charming historic house right in the center of Glastonbury; it doesn't get much nicer than that. The store truly has a little bit of everything: earrings, socks, decorations, candles, mugs--you name it. For my taste, the selection was not really for me, but others might love that classic, cozy style. I have to say, the highlight was an adorable employee--on the shorter side, a bit shy, but absolutely adorable. ( Corgi ) Overall, it's a cute local spot with lots to browse.

This is nice a TJ Maxx that's only a few minutes away from Main Street in Glastonbury…read more It's not a big store, but it's well packed with items for men, women, kids, pets, and home. With the holidays quickly approaching, there's plenty sparkly holiday gear, as well as "Ugly" Christmas sweaters. There's a nice variety of holiday decor for your home. Depending when I go, the line to checkout can be pretty long, but they have several cashiers working, so it's a pretty quick process.

The store manager, Susan Jordon, was so upbeat, energetic, friendly, and made my shopping experience one of the best I've had in a very, very long time. I came in to return an order of 4 pants I purcahsed online as a first time customer at J.Jill, I wasn't sure what size to order. Susan simply explained that I was ordering way too big and helped me find the perfect work pant for my new job. She set me up comfortably in a fitting room and brought me endless options to try - taking all the guesswork out of shopping, she picked out items that she thought would fit me well. Once we found the perfect fit, she found the pant in every color they had and went above & beyond to find me the only black pair left in a back stock room (double checking the computer inventory one last time before checking out). She was so friendly & kind - she was a complete joy to shop with. You don't run into this level of customer service at most retail stores. Susan is a tremendous asset to your brand and the company would do well if she traveled to other stores to spread her contagious attitude and friendly service! Job well done, Susan! If you're looking for a new wardrobe, or to simply put a functional outfit together - Susan is your gal! Thanks again, Susan!

We've visited their Simsbury store a bunch of times, and we saw pretty much the same selection of low priced goods here in Glastonbury - men's & women's clothing, shoes, household goods, artwork, books, toys, etc. We caught a 50% off sale on clothing yesterday, and I walked out with a $15 blazer for $7.50. Pretty sweet, eh? All proceeds go to charity (The Village for Families) and the store employees are all volunteers. The two women we interacted with were as nice and friendly as could be, we really enjoyed chatting with them. Bottom line? You can score some great bargains and support a worthy charity all at the same time.

They really really make me feel good about myself. When I leave the shop I do feel beautiful at that moment. I am writing this review while wearing an outfit from there. It is the Ditsy Skirt with the denim jacket and black shirt. I have gotten so many compliments. They can always tell when I have gotten new clothes and from where. My thanks to ALL of the girls at Glastonbury shop. You have all helped me in some way to rebuild my self esteem. Thank You!! Jackie

Not only was there a gorgeous array of styles and colors, but due to sales I ended up with 7 items of clothing and some jewelry.. The manager, Yalena was awesome!

I also have purchase online with equal satisfaction. I love these clothes and this store. Elaine Weber, Wethersfield CT

You'll find jewelry, hair accessories, Christmas ornaments, clothing, candles, home decor and more. The more you walk around the more you'll discover of what they have here. They also have a sale section by the front in the corner. The girls who work here, were all involved in private conversations, none of them were helping any customers. If you were to ask them something, you'd have to interrupt their important conversation. There were a few locations of this store, but now there's just this one left. It's easy to spend some time browsing through everything.

She even used the treadmill a few times to make sure the shoes were comfortable for running. This place is not cheap, but the service is good and the goods are high quality. Shoes will cost you over $100. They have Darn Tough socks for about $18. Running clothes and accessories too.

Finally a running store east of the River!!!…read more This is the third location that Sound Runner has opened in Connecticut, and after hearing so many wonderful things from my shoreline runner friends about this store I was happy to finally have a location close by. As soon as Mark C and I walked in we were greeted by an plesant employee asking how he could be of assistance. I was not in the market for a new pair of shoes but my husband wanted to try out a pair of Hoka Hoka One's which we were told the Glastonbury location carried. While Mark C was outfitted with not just a pair Hoka Hoka One shoes but several other options, I perused the store for things I "had to have". I was impressed with the location's tastefully lines walls and racks containing variety of men's and women's apparel and accessories as well as anything else you might need to make your run possible such as fuel and lighting. In the end Mark C ended up with a pair of shoes and I ended up with some "must have" items (socks and fuel), but I will definitely be back as the store starts getting the Run Club and Pub Runs underway.
