The person working the upstairs counter couldn't be bothered to direct me to where the item was, and his attitude was beyond rude.

I'll think twice before going back to Alpers, and will first choose Ace Hardware, or even Home Depot.

Unfortunately, the staff was far from welcoming. Instead of being helpful, they made me feel like I was inconveniencing them. I understand that everyone can have an off day, but the lack of basic customer service here was really disappointing. If customer service is important to you, I'd recommend looking elsewhere.

Well organized, and spotlessly clean displays make the visit worth your while. Custom orders are easily accommodated, and filled quickly in the unlikely event you're looking for something boutique.

Nicely done! They've got the olde-world hardware store knowledge combined with good pricing and a work ethic that makes you happy you chose them. Box store employees are mindless gnomes that cannot hold a candle to the folks that work at Best.

Note to the owner: this employee is miserable at this job and taking it out on your customers for no reason. Please replace her if your value your customers and your business.

SUMMARY: As they say in management "Everything flows from the top". I'm pretty sure the lady there…read moreis either the manager or the owner, but whatever the case may be, I hope she finds peace with whatever is bothering her and I sincerely mean it. BACKGROUND: My wife is a Bayside native and she left Bayside to be with me in CA and now in TX. We finally got around to visiting her mom since COVID hit and her home needed some maintenance type repairs. This store is the closest. SERVICE: As other people here have complained, the lady manager/owner(?) is just not nice. We visited on two occasions within the last 3 days. Both times we heard her berating her staff about where things were placed, why they're not looking in the manual, and the like. I would never ever talk like that to any one of my coworkers or of lower job position ESPECIALLY in front of customers. Accordingly, the staff looks beaten down and are in no hurry to do it right or in a timely manner. Why should they if they get chastised and berated in front of customers by their superior? After the first time a few days ago, they didn't have what we needed so we took a walk down to Bell Home & Hardware on 47-28 Bell Blvd. It was a nice day so we enjoyed the walk and were talking with each other saying (about Parker) "WTH, did we do something to piss her off or something?" When we got to Bell Hardware, in stark contrast the Asian lady employee there...wow, night and day difference. Once we walked in, she asked us what we needed and she walked us directly to what we needed, gave us great advice (including NOT buying one particular kit), and walking us again to something else we needed. Next time we'll walk the few extra blocks. And then today, we were meeting my wife's former boss and since the Parker hardware store was only a few stores down and we only needed some small things, we dropped by again and rolled the dice. Same treatment, same berating of staff. We got run up after a lengthy delay, no thank you, just an unhappy face, and handed me my receipt and change. RETURN VISIT? No. Definitely not. I mean, really, my patronage won't make much of a difference to her since we're only here for a week. But truly, I think the lady manager needs to deal with whatever it is because no one should be treated the way we saw her treat her employees.
