My husband and I shopped at Menards today for a large order. Not only did we get everything we needed for a better price than we could get anywhere else, but we commented to each other multiple times how friendly and helpful the staff were that we interacted with. The standout, though, was Drew without question. He went above and beyond typical customer service to make our lives easier and leave us with an overwhelmingly positive experience. Menards is much further from us than other home improvement stores but I would absolutely go out of my way to come back based on our experience with Drew. read more

The place is horrible I've listened to the manager standing around and talk about what's not getting done and I didn't hear him talk about a solution I heard him talk about people aren't coming in but I didn't hear a solution it's horrible I will not come back ever read more

Nice well stocked store, hate the layout. Separate entrance and exits so handicap parking people emded up walking too far if you can even find your way out. Dislike their 11 percent rebates, just drop the price 10 percent. read more

Menards - Hardware Stores Near Me - Columbus, Ohio

I don't shop big box stores like this often, but I am always impressed with Menards! I went in for a very specific item and was wandering a bit. I must've looked lost because a super friendly, helpful female employee offered to help and walked me to the exact thing I needed! She was SO friendly - I am embarrassed I didn't get her name. Walked around a bit more, picked up a couple more things, then headed to the checkout. The cashier was also super friendly! Pros: They had what I needed in stock Super friendly, helpful employees Great selection of things from flooring to auto items, gardening to cleaning supplies Super solid prices I'm excited to come back and get some garden items this spring! read more

Ordered products on my phone and paid at that time. Picked up my items and got my receipt. At the exit they checked my items against the receipt as if I was trying to slip an extra item. They wouldn't give me back my receipt. I asked repeatedly and was rudely refused . Said since I ordered online I couldn't keep my receipt. I had to walk out of the store with no proof the items were mine. Had the security guard in the pickup had wanted to stop me , what would I have done. Will never order online there again. Probably start using Lowes. read more

I placed an order online to pick up at the Hillard Rome Rd location. When I got there, the order was not in the system. The individual informed me that once in a while, the online orders end up in one of the systems at a different Columbus area store. He would not match the online price. I got home and found it went to the Moorse Rd. store. I called and spoke to someone in the Pickup Order Department. I explained what happened and that do to what happened, my time and gas spent, I wanted the item shipped at their expense (the item weighs less the 5lbs. he refused, said their system never has such issues, and didn't care what the other Manager had said. He was beyond rude and was showing a lack of respect while demonstrating the poorest of Customer Service. In service, we termed this as having their head up and locked. This individual is not management material and is what was called a "RUG". DEI no doubt!!! read more

I will never go back to this Menards the people there are not customer friendly. They don't care about the customer at all. There is stuff in every aisle. You can't even get your cart through. The manager was rude and the employees are rude. The worst Menards I've ever been to in my life. I'll never go back there again. read more

25% restocking fee. Never order a pick up here! This is outrageous as menards.com switch location to a different state and now being charged for their website fault. read more

I was in the store a while back. I found an item that was marked down, gave it to my wife to purchase with the other items in her cart while I went back to the car. When she was done shopping she mentioned the items' cost. I looked on the receipt and saw that I was overcharged. I took the item back into the store with the receipt, showed it to the manager. Along with another employee, they spoke amongst themselves about why this was marked down. Finally, I spoke up and questioned what they plan on doing about it. Were they going to honor the price that it was marked? The manager made me stand far away from the desk; while he continued to talk with the other person. So far I was there about 45 minutes. There were a crowd of people waiting in line. This was the most embarrassing situation I was ever placed in. The manager ultimately kicked me out of the store literally with what looked like a Nazi salute telling me "get out-get out". The Menards on Morris Road was close to my house and I've shopped there many times with out incident. This has been a shameful situation. I wrote the company who replied but didn't seem to care. I have been there recently, and they must've had a change of management. They don't seem to be treating their customers as criminals. I don't know how long this would last. read more

Pretty good social distancing measures, with wiped carts, control of people entering the building, employees wearing masks, etc. Far too many customers not wearing masks, but their disdain for their fellow citizens' lives is not Menard's fault. We got most of what we came for. Not many plants in yet; it's been too cold, and staff said whatever is delivered gets bought immediately. But got the supplies we needed, and some ideas. Super friendly and helpful staff during several interactions. read more

I would definitely recommend Menards. Their prices are Reasonable and sometimes you can get 11% rebate back.

Menards is my favorite place to go this time of year! I love to play outside in my flower bed and get my veggies planted. I love to play in the dirt! This store is very busy and you almost need to visit here a couple of times a week because of the turnover in their plants! They have a variety of different choices in soils and fertilizer as well as mulch. I consider this a well stocked garden center. There isn't too much that you won't find here. Yard ornaments, planters,fountains and much much more! I have been here so often that the cashier knows my name! read more

Eva might be the worst manager of any hardware store in town. We shop at menards Home Depot and lowes all over the city. Never had such poor management or treatment from any manager. We won't be using menards again anytime soon. Terrible customer service extremely unprofessional and rude. read more

My wife and I purchased our first home in early fall of 2017. Since then it's safe to say that we have been at Menards at least once every other weekend! (Sometimes we're there twice in a day or in the middle of the week!). We refuse to go anywhere else (cough cough-Lowe's/Home Depot) as the customer service we have experienced at several the CBus area stores has been abysmal. I have met seriously rude employees at both of the aforementioned stores. I am thrilled that finding Menards means that we don't have to patronize the aforementioned stores. Menards sells to a lot of contractors which means if you're looking for something, that relates to a home project, you will find it here. Plumbing, lighting, electrical- it's a safe bet that Menards has what you need. There has only been one thing that we could not find where we had to head to Lowes. I like that the Menards app is user friendly. It's helpful to just pull it up and get the general ballpark of where what I am looking for is located without schlepping across the entire warehouse. The rebates are totally simple to mail back in- provided you remember the mail by dates! I appreciate that the receipts have the number of the rebate that they correspond to at the bottom- it sure helps to keep rebates separate. (Got to keep track of those expiration dates though as I have lost a few rebates due to forgetfulness!) I like that the rebates come back to me in the form of credit to use at Menards... especially since I'm there so much! If you don't use the full balance of a particular rebate refund it's no bother as the cashier just marks what you have left on the rebate card. Any time we've had to swing by the customer service section for a return, there have been challenges at all. Even when we bought a door (where told it would fit our measurements despite being a 'nominally different') that of course, did not fit- the return was painless! Even though the door itself had been installed and was totally not the box. Bonus: The employees that I have encountered have always been helpful. If the employee I have approached doesn't know the section they have always helped me find that employee who does know the section that I need help in. Opposite of a bonus: On a downside there are some brands that Menards does not carry (DeWalt, Craftsman, etc). read more

Will never shop at Menards again! Went there today to purchase a refrigerator. We entered the store and were met by a store associate. She explained that all customers are required to wear a mask in the store. She continued that if we do not have a mask, they would sell us one for $1 each. It is so nice seeing Menards profiting off of this pandemic, but I have plenty of other options for shopping for the type of items I purchase here. read more

Do not waste your money or time at this store. They will not take responsibility for their mistakes in ordering shades/plantation shutters instead they will blame the customer and charge the customer a restocking fee. They will not pay for a contractor coming out several times to finish up a project because Employees at Menards can not read or do not want to read the correct measurements . Please stay away from this store and company . They only want your $$$. read more

Manager Ben is not an honest man. Told him about a pressure sale and he disregarded it entirely. Watch your back when making purchase. Back counter personnel will often offer only the highest priced item and manager was told of this. Manager Ben said nothing about the pressure sale when I brought it up. read more

I adore, adore, adore this store. Renovating my house, I can't tell you time number of times I've been there in the past 3 years. While at Home Depot or Lowes you get one option, at Menards, you usually get three: the cheap, the moderate, and the higher quality, expensive version. At the other two, the expensive version is all they have, and I don't find their quality all that impressive. Aside from that, Menards carries loads of other stuff that you can't find at those stores. Their selection of molding and lumber smacks the pants off the other two - why anybody would bother with them, I have no idea. Employees are decently knowledgeable (not great, not terrible), but that's par for the course at all of these stores now. Lowes on Silver Drive has HORRIFIC employees. The app could be better in locating items in the store. Lowes does better on that end, but that's literally the only advantage I'd give to Lowes. read more

Will NEVER recommend nor shop again at Menards! Had shopped for clients at Menards for years. Bought an outside light with a red tag on it meaning clearance. It did not work so I brought it back to return. First, they wanted to charge a restocking fee ($ 9.00 on a $ 37 light) claiming it was a special order. It was not. I argued it and then they called management who claimed the red sticker Ed item could not be returned (stated so on the receipt). I pointed out that the receipt prints AFTER the purchase, not before it and that I was never told that. I would not have taken the chance and would have bought another light. Then they claimed the tag said it. the wording was half cut off and black on red is always sooo easy to read. I told them if they wanted to blow up a several thousand dollar / year relationship over a legitimate return, fine. I have better discounts at Lowes and Home Depot's!!! read more

I love this store. I get all of my bets and squirrel food here and the have rebates all the time. The garden center is really nice as well. Everyone is so kind and helpful. read more

This is still one of the best locations in Columbus where you can buy beautiful plants for the garden now there are lots of herbs, veggies, perennials, and annuals for sale. All at reduced prices and the 11% off of your total. I especially enjoy window shopping at the different kinds of fountains and waterfalls. As I have a pond in my backyard one of these waterfalls would look great! Of course the one I want is the $999 one. But it is beautiful and majestic as the water rushes over one level to then fall to a lower level and continue in this downward path until it reaches the bottom reservoir where it is pumped back up to the top. But, there's just so much to look at and even though the staff were overwhelmed with the number of Memorial Day customers, Mike, the manager of the Morse Rd store and other employees in the main store and the gardening store were very helpful, polite and courteous. I needed to look in hardware for a couple of bolts and nuts to secure our mailbox at home. I had no idea how to locate the items I needed, but our clerk went out of his way to help us size the bolts we should have based on the old ones we brought with us. We also had Mike, manager for the gardening area, place a big delivery order for us. We were told what day they would be there and were all set. (I wasn't even sure they did residential deliveries for a smaller load than they might otherwise get as delivery orders. Our order was for 40 ornamental bricks and 15 bags of top soil. I had no idea how they were going to pull that off, but it seems the subcontract such jobs. We were all set. read more

My friend and and I came to Menards to look for a sample of carpet. My friend brought a bit of her carpet to get matched. An employee named Dre was extremely helpful in telling us about boards of carpet we could "rent" and take home to match the color of my friend's carpet. He also was able to show us some rugs that were on sale! My friend needed the foam material that went under the carpet and the employee went out of his way to get a machine to cut a roll of foam for her. He was super helpful and didn't make us feel pressured to buy anything at all. He also told us how to order the carpet online. The cashier we had was also nice and easy to talk to! Best experience in a hardware store I've ever had! read more

I paid for products. $176.00 dollars. I inadvertently left a item at the register. I Left the store so I went back in. I had walked by the security guard and left out. We made eye contact previously. So I went back in the exit door. Another security guard tried to question me. And that they could look me up on camera. So a negative exchange occurred. They were standing by the service desk. The two Menards employees at the Customer Service Desk did nothing. So in my opinion anyone who shops at the Morse Road Menards. Could possibly be accused of theft. Both security guards lack professionalism in conduct and experience. And I can put my credentials against those two good for nothings any day of the week. This is not a reflection on all Menards employees. But just the two security guards working the door. On 12/28/2022 at 8:30 am approximately. After calming down. I called and spoke the Manger on Duty. I requested the General Manager phone number. He stated he didn't have it. But he did have Headquarters numbers. And the Security Guards didn't work for Menards. But a outside contractor. I'm not satisfied!!! Shop at your own risk. read more

Horrible service and rude employee. My boyfriend and I had a huge lumbar order and no one would help us. we were there for about 3 hours it was 10 pm at this point when the gate at the gate then hassled us saying we had double over everything we were supposed and we both knew that wasn't true because we loaded it ourselves and found everything ourselves. He acted like we were criminals and told us to take everything out and stack it again and count them. at this point we were done and I went inside looking for a manger who found out it wasn't even our fault and that an employee printed our invoice wrong. by this time it was 10:30pm with a 45 minute drive home. I have never been more exhausted and disappointed in a place. I feel like I should've been getting paid instead of us doing everything ourselves and paying them over 2,000 dollars. they have a huge selection but it's a mess. on top of everything I had to use the restroom very badly and the smell was so bad it stayed in my nose all the way home. the air dryers didn't work and there was no paper towels available also many of the toilets had stuff in the toilet that had not been flushed. will never recommend this place. read more

I only come here during the spring and summer months for landscaping and gardening supplies. With that said, large selections of seeds (mostly Burpee, including their Organic line), usually kept inside early spring but then moved outside for the summer. Vegetable tray plants, like cucumbers and tomatoes, usually arrive late April but I've seen the bulk of them arrive closer to Mother's Day in May. They usually sell out fast so I suggest all the urban gardeners out there to visit the week before Mother's Day weekend. Good selection and price on mulch, especially cedar, which is supposedly better for the home (yet pricier-close to $4 a bag) since it deters bugs and lasts longer. The typical colored red/black/brown mulch is $2 a bag, but regardless with what you get, if you can time getting it all during their 11% rebate events, you can save a decent amount on your landscaping. Great place for bird lovers. Nice variety of bird seed, including safflower seed, 50 lb sunflower seed bags, mix, suet blocks and corn cobs. Bird feeders, hummingbird feeders (including ornate copper feeders), bird baths, limited-inventory butterfly and mason bee houses round off a pretty nice selection of bird and nature enthusiast supplies. Cashiers are a little aloof but those outside are pretty helpful. Not as educated about plants as other retailers but I'm usually not asking for advice, just where things are/coming in. read more

Lots of stuff here. Appliances, paint, outdoor furniture. Pretty much everything. Clean and bright. We've been here several times and it's kind of hit or miss. Sometimes they have what you want, sometimes they don't. Today we went to look at stoves. Several employees wandering nearby, not one asked if we needed help. Disappointed in customer servive read more

So my husband and I purchased carpet from here on 9/25/20 which we had an installer install it that day while we was at work. The install called to let my husband know that there where stamps on the carpet. Got ahold of menards they waited us to have carpet pulled up and brought back. We said we should have to pay to have it taken up that they could have someone. Since we didn't want to do that on 10/5/20 they wanted me to fill out paper to get refund. So all this time as went by ive called several times to not get an answer. On 1/20/21 I got a letter from corporate saying I need to tear carpet up bring back and have installed again. Why should I have to pay twice because of your mess up??? read more

One word: LOVE. Yep. My hubby and I fell in love at our first Menard's store in Lancaster. (Thats where the in-laws live.) We went to the store for the first time last summer and wondered why we didnt have one in the Columbus area. The store is huge!!! Last summer we had a deck built onto our condo and we went into the store looking for patio furniture. The only downside to it was that we had no way to get it home (Columbus) from Lancaster. However, we did look around and found some items that we needed for our grill. Now that there is a Menards in Columbus (YEAH!!!!) we've been to the store at least 3 times. We purchased a new storm door (special ordered while they were on sale) and a sliding back door which we later had to return. The staff at the store was extremely helpful and answered our questions. Heck, its just fun to walk through the store and look at everything -- even when you dont have any projects to work on! I was really impressed with their pick up area around the back of the store. You have to pass through security going in and out. Once you are in, you are directed to the appropriate area to pick up your item(s). We will definitely be back to this store. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE!!!!! Check it out if you havent done so already!!! read more

Ran up to Menards to pick up some stuff that was on sale and really had a hard time finding it. I saw plenty of employees but the first two I asked for help couldn't help me locate what I was looking for. If you have something on sale, it shouldn't take three employees to locate it. The store is large, expansive, and has a wide variety of items. The place is clean and modern when compared to Lowes and Home Depot. Employees were generally friendly but didn't know their inventory and were unable to offer reliable advice on a dehumidifier. I come here for their sale items, not because I like shopping here. While not an issue this trip, make sure you keep your receipts, they do not store them electronically and will issue store credit at their current price. read more

I was in serious need of another AC unit. I paid online via Menards website for same day delivery. The updates on the website did not match or inform me about who was delivering or ETA. It said shipped! Then it said picked up by guest. I didn't pick it up. I emailed immediately, no response. I called at 5:35 and was told the store was closed. Found out the next day, the store was open till 9. The website didn't explain that the guest pick up was Door Dash. 170$ just walked away. There was never a delivery. No picture. No knock at the door. No call. Nothing left outside my door. I have a door camera. Buyers beware, Be careful. read more

Second time in a year I fell for it - website says they are open, drove half hour, closed. F this place. I'm sure they don't care but maybe they should as I spent just over $9,300 there last year. Thank god there's Lowes. read more

Where to start... Is this store big: Yes Do they have a lot of stuff: Yes Is their pricing good: Yes Ok. Now that the technicalities are over, let me get on to why this is THE WORST STORE EVER. Store layout. I'd start with the words confusing, unpredictable, frustrating and infuriating. There is no logical layout. To buy hardware for mounting a steel cable I had to visit 3 different departments in various spots in the store. Sure, they have a little bit of everything. But in reality, they just have a little bit. Their hardware selection is basic at best. Items are not stocked in the places they should be. I had to hunt through over 40 bins to find the 1/2" galvanized washers I needed because they weren't in the right spot. How about the quality of all this cheap hard to find stuff? Complete utter garbage. Speaking of garbage, the store is a mess. The parking lot is a mess as well. And on to the the worst part of this store. The employees. There seem to be hundreds of them. They wander around like zombies looking for more things not to do. There are ZERO knowledgeable employees. Asking the simplest of questions can turn your voyage into a Tolkein-esque quest. I unfortunately lost my car key in the depths of this mega store-nightmare, and just politely asking an employee, who appeared to be the front manager for assistance was insane. The guy says "We don't got no keys" and walks away. I asked him if I left my card to please give me a call if the key turned up. He said "Uh, well, I can try" and walked away without taking my card. I've been to this store a half dozen or so times out of convenience and have regretted it EVERY time. It is a delusion that you can save any time in that place over shopping a few different small stores, or hitting up Lowes or Home Depot. You get what you pay for regardless. So, unless you have no need for convenience, quality products or customer service, have fun buying cheap garbage at Menards. read more

Lowes or even Home Depot are the places to go instead of here. I have attempted multiple times to shop at this store and have never been satisfied. Things are are to locate and the staff is incompetent. Their products are either always out of stock or if in stock inferior. Their staff is either not around or able to point you in the right direction for what you are looking for. read more

Menards is the one stop home improvement Walmart. They have too much of a variety of categories at a higher price. You never put every ornament you own on the Christmas tree. They clog the store with everything. I HATE that they do not honor a military discount. They do have a reluctant return policy. They reluctantly hand you your money back. I buy a sale item I desire. Scan the barcode for who sells it. Take the receipt to that home improvement store who matches the price, and then gives a military discount. Menards won't match that. Do the right thing, and keep our business. Make your store more appealing by losing all the brick-a-brack clutter. read more

Menards - Large selection on display - Hardware Stores Near Me - Columbus, Ohio

Great job Black Friday ! Organized lots of specials in stock and a sages easy shopping experience ! Thank You read more

Echoing other Yelpers comments, you get what you pay for. This place seems cheaper then other home improvement stores in the area, but the quality and selection is not to be desired. Beware many of the best deals involve a re-bait process that adds an extra step to save money. I tend to shop at this location for outdoor and landscaping products due to the convenience to my house. The staff has always been friendly and helpful. If you want a quality product with a larger selection, hit up another home improvement store, but it serves its purpose for small projects, or everyday home improvement needs. read more

Words can't express how happy I am to finally have commerce back at the Northland Mall site. Columbus n00bs may not realize it, but up until the late 1990s, Northland Mall was THE place to shop in Columbus. Then Easton and Polaris happened, and stores started leaving, and it got a reputation for crime before finally shutting its doors around 2002. It was mostly demolished and the land sat empty for a while. Some of the buildings were developed into offices, but apart from a rebuilt Taco Bell and a small credit union, there was no reason for anyone to go there. Until... now. Menards makes a striking impression up front, with its facade of exposed timber and a row of windows to show off the selection of lighting inside. The entry is much more open and welcoming than your typical Lowe's or Home Depot, and I've been greeted warmly each of the three times I've been there so far. Menards seems to have about the same selection of home-improvement items that your typical big-box HI store would have, including a large outdoor garden center, appliances, etc. In addition, there's also a small grocery section, which I reckon will be convenient when I need, say, both a garden hose and a gallon of milk. All the prices I've seen so far have been reasonable... I don't know if I "saved big money" on my first big trip, but it seemed about the same as my usual Lowe's shopping spree. Checking out is a different experience. You push your cart into a little cubby next to the cashier (who's standing on the same side of the counter as you), and he or she will unload it for you while you wait at the other end to pay and bag your items. I like it. I'm especially excited about one thing I saw at Menards: A self-serve propane-tank dispenser! No more waiting for sluggish gas-station employees to trade out your tank while the burgers wait... you can trade in or buy new via the machine. Best idea ever. If I had to come up with one thing I didn't like about Menards so far, it's that you must enter on one end and exit at the other. So if you park in front of the entrance, you have a long hike back to your car when you exit. No biggie though. The best thing about Menards is that it's exactly 0.9 miles from my house. Sorry, Lowe's. read more

They do NOT honor rebates. We've tried for months to get our 159.00 rebate. We've called mngr Brad who said he'd get it sent. It did not come. We emailed rebate international two times. No response. Emailed corporate office. No response. Called corporate office. Told us they could do nothing. If you're shopping for the rebates then don't bother. The store and corporate WILL rip you off. They don't care. Their whole demeanor is that it's all in rebate internationals hands. They don't hold themselves accountable for what they promise their customers read more

LOVE this place. They have everything you might ever need ever and at a great price. It's a huge well organized store that is clean with staff that actually wants to help you. The first time I went to a Menards was in 2002 in Town and Country on East Broad. I was so sad when they closed! Now I am so happy they came back. The Morse Rd. location is perfect for the neighborhood. They have great weekly sales as well as red tag clearance all over the place. Definietly stop here first before you waste your time at Harbor Fright, Bargain Outlet, Lowes, Home Depot, etc. Menard's might save the day for you like it did for me! read more

Yes... The prices are pretty good.... But the customer service is TERRIBLE! Wanted to buy a patio set but there was nobody there to help....and most of the stuff did not have prices marked. Asked for help and the employee said they would send somebody over. They never came even after a pretty long wait. Finally, took off the tags and went to the service desk... Nobody there. Waited. Nobody came. Finally got in a cashier line to have them scan it. Brought my husband back the next day. Again, it took forever to get some help. Prices were completely mismarked. Went to pay and my husband used a $100 bill. Cashier had to have a manager check it out. Fine with that. But when the manager brought it back, he started teasing the cashier with it....handing it to her and then jerking it away and laughing. Over. And over. And over again. Seriously? There was a line. The man behind us rolled his eyes, shook his head and then made a comment to me about the ridiculous behavior. The manager never even looked at the customers or line at all. It was like we didn't even exist. You can definitely tell why the customer service is terrible when the lack of regard for the customers so obviously starts at the top! There were other instances of poor customer service during my visit, but those two times were the most obvious. We just moved into our home near this Menards, so we will probably be back. But we sure won't buy any big ticket items there because I don't want to deal with this mess on a bigger scale!! read more
