    Fantastic old fashioned Tailors, just like they should be. Nothing is too much trouble. A polite,…read morehelpful and friendly service run by a father and son. The prices are very reasonable but the service is second to none, why venture to the faceless high street stores when you could go here? We hire suits for black tie events from here, measurements are always taken and they have a large choice of suits, cufflinks etc - in fact they can supply all you need for that special event. The shop is small and intimate and the parking is on the street outside the shop or across the road in the old Budgens car park.

    Local small business, and always wanting to support and spend my money locally instead of…read moretravelling to Milton Keynes or Northampton . So I thought I would give it a go. Sold me a new waist coat that he said was my size. I tried it on and it seemed a bit baggy. He said that I could adjust it to take the slack out of it using the slide at the rear( which while wearing it I obviously could not see). At this point he pulled it tight as he stood behind me to demonstrate (I know now he scrunched the back with his hand and did not use the adjuster) so I handed over a very large wedge via my card ( I also paid for some tailoring at the same time). As soon as I got home I tried it on and as advised went to adjust the slide only to find it was at its full most adjustment. Took it right back to the shop an hour later. As soon as he saw me his attitude instantly changed. I politely and calmly explained that it could not be adjusted any further than it was and that could he please exchange it for one a size smaller? He immediately became very aggressive, stating they had a policy of no returns and no refunds. I explained that under consumer rights he was enforcing a policy that was incorrect and operating out site of consumer law. He then just told me to leave, which I did. For my part I am in my fifty's, I do not in any way shape or form seek confrontation and consider myself a polite gentleman and genuine shopper. My advice is to avoid this aggressive, rude and money grabbing con man at all costs!
