This is actually an Ace Hardware. It gets two stars because it is the only hardware store so close…read moreby. I haven't had such bad experiences with the creepy guy, but I totally knew who the other reviewers were referring to. I did get creep vibe from him whenever I come in, so I have always avoided him. I know that having things behind glass and the counter is par for the course in an old school Brooklyn store, but it does put me off since I never feel comfortable asking for anything. The store is packed with stuff, which means they probably have at least something you need, but it is extremely hard to navigate. I have gotten a bunch of keys made, but I have been trying to get my mail key copied for months. Every time I come, I am told they don't have that key template and will have it in next week. I've gone in many "next weeks" and they always tell me the same thing. It's really annoying. The prices are jacked up, but sometimes I am in a jam and can't go all the way to Home Depot in BedStuy.

I drove there in the morning and arrived at this store on the time that they supposed to open but they were late. Then I asked about the stuff I want, and they show me. I grabbed it and paid then left the store. The price for the pot is a bit higher than regular pot but I just need small amount for my project so I'm ok.

They seem to be completely uninterested in understanding what stock they have or helping you.

When asked why not, they didn't answer. No thanks.

They have evolved and branched out as that community began to change over the years. They had everything you needed, and if they didn't, they would point you to where you could find it.

Crest is a Williamsburg institution that will be sorely missed.
