Angela's Tailor Shop was a great relief for me a few times…read more I did not inherit my mothers talent for sewing, and I have proven that a few times to myself. So, the next best thing is to search out a great tailor close to where ever you are living, create a great rapport and you will have peace of mind. Angela's has been here for some time now, well as long as I can remember. I have taken clothing there for alterations as well as dry cleaning and never had any issues.

My Mum always goes here and highly recommended it for me and I'm glad I listened! I had two dresses…read morethat needed to be combined so I had both on as I explained exactly what I needed done. I was afraid she'd miss some instruction as she wasnt taking any notes but all my requests were done perfectly in just one week.

Had a subpar experience about 10 years ago but decided to give this place another try because it…read morehas such glowing reviews. The work was good and priced fairly but the tailor has an attitude I'm not a fan of. I haven't gone to many tailors at all and got barked at because I wasn't sure what to do next when I was being measured. I will be continuing to look for that elusive combo of price, hours and customer service.

I took several items to this shop immediately after it switched to new ownership. My items were not…read morejust badly done, but outright ruined even though I had explained in detail what was needed. They charged me again to do the job over, with worse results and a poor customer service attitude. Not impressed. After many years of going here, I will definitely be switching tailors permanently.

Excellent tailoring work, great prices, and always completed in a timely manner. We've been going…read morehere for years. Highly recommend. (Location is actually on Oxford Street.)

This place is really great. It's nestled away on Oxford St in a quieter neighbourhood, so no need…read moreto deal with crazy traffic and crowds. You can tell this store has been around a while, since it has the look and feel of a 60s mom 'n pop tailoring operation. Even though I wasn't around back then, you still get a sense of nostalgia when you walk in the door. They have a really cool huge collection of police cloth badges from all over the world, tacked up behind the front counter. You can easily spend a half hour just gawking at them trying to figure out where and when they're from. Nice way to pass the time while waiting for clothes. Service is fast, in a retirement home kind of way but it's all par for the course.

Both my partner and I have been going to Janice's Custom tailoring for a few years now. At least 5…read moreto 6 years and she is yet to disappoint. I have brought all forms of clothing to her, from casual dresses, to dress pants, to jeans, to bridal gowns, to suits. As well as, brought clothing to be dry cleaned. The service is always amazing, timely, prices are fair and the fit of the clothing is always what I wanted. Janice is extremely friendly and kind and over the years she has made an effort to build and grow a rapport, which I really appreciate. Janice provides quality work, very knowledgeable and able to work with you and guide you on what's best for the fit of your clothing. I no longer live downtown Halifax, but any alterations, tailoring or dry clean needed, I only make my way to Janice. I strongly recommend. Keep up the great work Janice!!!

Took an expensive wool coat in to be shortened. Looks awful, not hanging properly, area around hem…read morehas scorch marks from too hot iron. Lining not adjusted. No anchoring done, paid a lot in cash. Hard to believe this job was done by a real tailor, I suspect they have inexperienced people in the back doing their work. Taking my coat to another tailor, will make sure this time that an actual tailor does the work and if he/she advises me of how this work was done, I will let you know. I recommend no one ever use this so called tailor .

I had 4 pairs of pants hemmed and a new button put on a pair of jeans that had fallen off, and it…read morewas all done for under $50. The man working was very professional and I was able to try on my pants in a little changing room so he could pin the correct length. The quality of the work done was great. The only reason I'm only giving 4 stars out of 5 is that I was told my pants would be finished two days later by 11am (I said I could pick them up in two days before noon, or I could get them the following week as there was no rush). I arrived to pick them up at 11:35am while on my way to work, and I ended up having to wait 5 minutes while he finished one of my pants in front of me. It wasn't a big deal, but if I I had come at 11am when he said they would be done then I would have waited 40 minutes or I would have had to come back to get my pants on another day. I would recommend this tailor, but I would suggest giving them more time to finish your items, even if they sound confident that they will have it done in a couple of days.

First off: how weird is it that Yelp doesn't have a "tailors" category? Pretty weird, right?…read more Okay, so I've been to Metro Tailors a few times to get some odds and ends done. Usually just minor things. Most recently I got the zipper replaced on a winter jacket that has been sitting in my closet for years. Now, admittedly, I didn't ask how much it would cost but in my mind, I ball parked it to be about $20 (based on absolutely nothing other than how I much wanted to pay). It turned out to be $30 but, hey, I essentially got another jacket out of the deal. Still, I wish the price had been offered when I dropped it off in advance. The work is great, though. The turnaround time was also fairly quick. Their hours aren't posted which isn't very helpful. Still, if you need some work done, I'd recommend them. I'll probably go again.
