I live in South Philadelphia and called two Targets to see if they had what I needed. This one told me they HAD IT IN STOCK. So I drove up there, went inside, searched everywhere and found that it was not actually in stock. What is wrong with the people who answer the phones? What do they pay you for?!?! read more

Some days I like running all over the city to do my errands, but other days I just need to get it all done at once. Enter stage left: Target -- a short ride on the #7 bus from my house and the best one-stop shopping in town. Where else can you purchase socks, underwear, towels, KIND bars, and shampoo all at the same time? Plus, that little doggie is the cutest. read more

Not the best Target I've been to, but if I can walk in with a specific goal (get contact solution and new travel mug) and walk out spending $100, then doggone-it! you've done it again, Target!!! read more

I am so angry, I received the worse customer service here. I rang up my items at the self check-out. My payment went through but my receipt didn't print. An employee tried to fix the machine but said it froze and tried to push me out the door without my receipt. I explained I wanted the receipt. The person tries to restart the machine, it's still frozen, so she says go to Customer Service. I go to Customer Service - the gal looks at me blankly when I explain the situation. She calls Security over. He does something only to advise that their system says I didn't pay for my items. I think it's odd, but allow my items to rung up again. After, because something felt off, I checked my checking acount and see now I've paid Target twice. I show this to the rep and ask if I can be refunded the second charge. She says to call my bank about it. I asked if something could be done now since I'm right there and they made the error. I have to wait for the security guy again, who all he offers is that I can return the items, which I didn't want to and that still wouldn't fix the double charge, or he suggests I can wait 48 hours and the issue will probably "work itself out." No apology, no real solution or action by them to fix the issue they created nothing. I have never been so angry at a business and so disappointed. I will not be here again. read more

It's Target, and it works just fine. Customer Service is nice enough and the store is clean (although the bathroom could use a nice wipe down - dirty floors). It's relatively easy to find everything. Lines go quickly enough and they now have self-service if you're into that no talking to anyone mood (or are just completely anti-social). Nothing exciting, nothing to complain about. read more

You're cheap, organized, support good causes, and have a good food court. No wonder I've been going since the grand opening...

as i am entering, a security guard was standing by. ummm. yeah - no thank you dirty. floor scuffed. really one target review should be enough, but when one is crappy i guess it deserved the crap review try to care read more

Way better than Walmart. Better service, organization, and selection of products.

The 64 bus takes me from practically my front door to a few,blocks away, so, I decided to try this Target since I received gift card for Christmas. Someone warned me about prices switchover than the City Avenue location. NOT TRUE! The prices were reasonable like remember. The bathroom was very clean, vegetarian protein section better, produce,nice, but the only problem was they were re-stocking in every aisle which made it hard to browse. But, I remember prices from my other target stores. I shall return to this location. It was calm. Employees nice and bus going down my street is really convenient. read more

Worst Target. Before I could tell customer service of what item I was wondering would be back in stock, I was told right off the bat that they don't know. I was told that trucks come in and they have no idea what's on the truck. So you're telling me that items get sent from their distribution with no packing list what so ever? That makes no sense. So how is inventory done when things are gone? How are items checked off to match OOS items to see if their orders been fulfilled? Then I was told that if I went back to the aisle, (without even asking me what product, so I assumed they don't even have a proper inventory system they could use to look up the item) and got her the DCI number that she would be able to find another target with it. So if the shelves are empty of this product, and the customer has no idea what a DCI number is because it's our job to bring it so the Customer Service Rep so they can search it up, how does this make sense? Terrible. read more

I have been going to this Target since I moved to Philly 11 years ago. It has always been understocked and a mess. Then recently we tolerated the huge mess that it became during renovations. Now, renovations are complete but really it is the same old place. Clothing is all over the floor. Shelves and racks are not stocked. Forget using your coupons because those items definitely are not there. And your reward is to wait in a long check out line. I now try to avoid shopping there. I really don't understand the good reviews... read more

Convenient location, area seems to be well stock, the DVD & blu ray selection is lacking. I give this target a 1 star, not because of the crappy DVD & blu ray section, but because Lizzie was no where to be found. read more

man, this place is to ritz carlton as the nearby walmart is to motel 6. i'm a sucker for a bargain but just couldn't bear to drag myself to the horrific walmart on columbus to do my bulk shopping over the weekend. i decided to check out the target instead, and i'm glad that i did. while it seems a little smaller than most targets i've visited, it was sufficient in size to carry most of the items for which i was looking. the place was a deserted wasteland on saturday morning so i was able to do a considerable amount of damage to my budget in a reasonable amount of time. checkout was a breeze since there were roughly 20 customers in the place. i needed help finding one item and had 2 very nice employees try to help me. unlike walmart, i don't feel like i'll contract herpes walking through the door so this target can count on me as a future customer. read more

Terrible customer service. Not one associate greeted or asked if I needed any assistance the entire time I was shopping.

Of all the big box stores this is pretty much the only chain I will voluntarily set foot in. I much prefer to deal with the small, local businesses but sometimes you just need convenient one stop shopping. The store is clean, well lit, well maintained, organized, and the cash registers are usually well manned to minimize line waits. read more

It's clean, the staff are very helpful, and the other alternative is the Walmart across the street, which I have sworn off. The grocery section stocks local produce like milk and eggs, which is a nice touch. There's really no other alternatives for one-stop shopping anywhere else in the city, unless you want to go out to city line avenue. read more

Having not realized there's a Target much closer to us in Port Richmond, we've been going to this one for the usual household odds and ends since moving to NoLibs in May. Each visit has been similar - too much traffic, OK staff (some friendly, others just taking up space and oxygen), and empty shelves. We've left the last couple times without the primary intent of our venture. Won't be back. read more

Just a pretty decent place that has everything. Polite and helpful staff!

King bed sheets.... $40.... Really it's just cotton. Be prepared to see children get excited over fruit ninja boxers. Being in this place makes me feel really normal. And a bee in the beehive that is Philly. read more

Convenient location right off interstate 95. Checkout lines aren't too long and they always are stocked with the goodies I like. Also have food aisle; bonus! read more

Three stars only because it is a target. This target has the least customer friendly staff I have ever experienced at a target EVER. Not only do they often have misinforming or placed signs but it is almost impossible to get a hold of a manger if escalated to that. It is hard to find help at this location, but like I said it's still target so 3 stars for that fact alone. read more

The locals will steal your cart if you walk away from it. Target needs to oil the wheels or prevent them from shopping. I like the last solution. read more

I accidentally left my driver's license with customer service when returning an item. I called the store the next day and they confirmed it was there and confirmed the spelling of my last name. When I arrived at the store to retrieve it, my license was gone. The manager was not at all empathetic to the fact that one of her employees had either lost or stolen my license. Completely unprofessional. read more

It's a target, it's not bad, not great, like any Target. As to the weird "gross customer" comment, I guess some people are just much better than the rest of us. read more

I LOVE Target!!! They have better quality brands and products, their clothes and house wears are much nicer than their competitors.

I would like to update my review for Target again as I am almost sorry for my less-than-perfect former reviews! It was the first holiday season for this store here in Roxborogh, and I must say, Target came in mighty handy! Thank you, Target, for being open and NOT raising your prices for Christmas. I mean it -- I was able to buy several last minute gifts (mostly lotions and other beauty care items) and not walk away 'scalped.' I really did appreciate that! Also, I found some good bargains in the food area, things either newly added in, or I just missed them before. It seems you are learning what appeals to us Roxborough folks and for that, I thank you. Well done, Target! read more

I'd rather shop here than going to Walmart. Target does a good job at keeping things organized.

Well, I have been to a number of Target stores. As big box stores go, Target is probably the best. The store is clean and the service is pretty good. The have a good selection of everything you need a low prices. This particular location is not quite as good as other locations, but all in all, not bad. I'm a fan. read more

The four stars that I am giving tonight is for the friendliest check out cashier who just finished her 9 hour shift at target. I wish I would have known her name. Not many people, especially at Target are friendly and kind to their customers towards the end of their shift. I am sure they deal with a lot of bull crap from horrible patrons but this women was very kind to me and my husband. Smiles to you Miss !!!!! read more

Pros: Easy to find items. Quick checkout. Pleasant shopping environment. Cons: Doesn't have as many items as their competitor, therefore they don't carry all brands I buy. And the prices are more expensive. read more

I visited the Target location at 4000 Monument Road to return a gift my son received for his birthday Sat. His grandma purchased him a car seat however it wasn't safety equipped so I was returning the chair to get a more secure one. I was told they didn't know why I couldn't return without a receipt. I explained that it was gift and a fist receipt wasn't provided. The cashier than told me "she didn't know why I wasn't able to return without a receipt" I called customer services and was advised that the item could be return however I would have to get someone else to do it. I don't recall returning without a receipt because I always use my Target card. The principal about the situation is how rude PAULETTE WAS. She told me she was a manager when I asked to speak to one Bieber another employee there advised she was a "front end lead". She slammed my id and Corp number on the counter I asked her to place it in my hand like I placed it hers. She than advised that I didn't give it to her so she's not picking it up. She walked off leaving my other item on the counter and never returned. The original cashier returned and skipped right over me asked nice and politely to the Caucasian guy "how can I help you thanked him for his patience but never said another word as if I wasn't standing there. I understand many people have it set in their heads that "BLACKS ARE GHETTO AND STEAL" but everyone isn't like that. I work just like they do. On top of me spending so much money there on a reg. But I do know Target lost me as a customer and if his grandmother didn't live out of town I would tell her to get her money back. I will be boycotting Target until their employees know how to treat their customers. read more

My daughter who is 17yrs old and a senior at The Preparatory Charter School of Mathematics, Science, Technology & Careers, a local HS in the area, applied for a position and was hired. Her initial interview was by phone, several days later she was asked to come in to meet with a manager. The initial day was Tuesday at 9am. I allowed her to take the morning off since she was so excited. She was then asked to come in to bring her documentation for HR and orientation on a Thursday at 9am. At the prospect of missing additional time off of school, I had her attempt to reschedule. She was informed that if she could not make that day and time then she was fired. My daughter is preparing to graduate HS and move on to college. She was taking this job just to help out with all of her fees for the senior year. The fact that Target makes it a practice of forcing HS applicants to take time off from school or be fired is distressing to say the least. This is apparently a common practice with their corporation and instead of punishing students they need to reevaluate their orientation schedules. My daughter chose not to miss the additional time but there are other students who may not have had that option.My wish is that Target look into the actual hiring practices as it pertains to high school students.1 read more

Target has the worst men's selection ever . The men's section is shrinking by the minute as the whole store is almost women's clothing .. I couldn't even get a decent button down shirt there . Anyway I think target needs to expand the style they carry in the men's department . Sorry I just don't feel like dressing as an Easter egg when I go out . read more

I love Target in general, but my street runs right through the parking lot of this one, so I go several times a week. They went through a rough patch during renovations where nothing made any sense (frozen food in the baby department?), but now they are in great shape. They added even more to their grocery department, and for most things they beat grocery store prices. At one point I was using the pharmacy here and was very happy with it,then they cut back the hours it was open and it was no longer convenient for me. Since they moved everything around, every time I have been wandering around looking confused, a staff member has stopped me to see if they could help. I love that! Last night I was there and they opened a cashier lane for me even though I was only 3rd in line. Some Targets seem to have a better selection of women's clothes and shoes than this one, but that's ok because it keeps me from making too many impulse purchases. read more

I cannot in good faith recommend the pharmacy here. The past two times that I've had prescriptions filled here, I've been stuck waiting, even when it has been dropped off the day before. The final straw was this evening when a prescription that I dropped off on Saturday was placed "on hold," but I was never called. Being that they're open everyday, I figured Monday was plenty of time for them to fill my order. I need the medicine for an upcoming procedure and my husband just had to flip out on the pharmacist to get them to call the doctor right now and fix the problem. They finally straightened that out, but of course they don't have the medicine in stock, so this could possibly screw up the procedure I have scheduled for Wednesday. If they had called me this weekend when the issue first came up instead of putting it on the back burner, it could have been resolved. As someone in healthcare, I'm usually pretty patient with these kinds of things because I know how stressful our field is...this is completely unacceptable, though. I would never leave my patients hanging like this. Heed my advice and go to a real pharmacy! read more

When I experienced my first Target about 10 years ago I dismissed it as a new concept with a crisis identity stocking a schizophrenic product line. I've come to realize that the people behind Target, a very old company with a new name are geniuses. They have become my default store-of-the-last-minute. They never disappoint me. if I am in a bind, there they are just waiting to bail me out. I love Target and I especially love the staff checking the store rooms and more often than not actually producing what you wanted even though "everything was out" Probably a great store. read more

first things first...fuck shopping. i hate it more than the dentist and getting a physical; combined. second things second, Target blows. ive had worse shopping expirences, but there is nothing like having your name and address shouted to you at the pharmacy so everyone around can hear what fucked up medicines you are taking. ive seen the food section here look like a bombed out part of Sarajevo. read more

Be very careful when you shop here. The cashiers ring things up incorrectly. They often charge a higher price than the one listed. Often, they don't charge food items as food, and if you use SNAP that can be unfortunate. There are several rude cashiers and managers who are not interested in or invested in customer service. While several cashiers are very nice, most of the managers could not care less about the customers. Since the Reconfig, many prices have gone up, and good products have disappeared. There is NEVER any one to answer a question. Target used to be a fairly nice place to shop. In the last year, it has become overpriced and generally unpleasant. Above all be careful about what you are charged. read more

back when i was a product whore and bought items based on how shiny and bright the packaging was, Target was my hub for 95% of all purchases. who needs grocery stores when you can pick up your bread and milk right alongside your seasonal melamine dishware and socks with colorful embroidered kittens on them?! and besides, when you're that wrapped up in consumerism, you rarely get hungry. so, needless to say, i used to really love Target. now that i'm an older and wiser (and less shitty, aka more eco-considerate), i don't frequent this store. and quite frankly, it's a good thing! when i stopped in the other day to pick up something that i knew i wouldn't be able to find easily elsewhere, i was sad to find that's it's gone the way of the south philly Wal-Mart. the ladies section of the store was a complete disaster. i mean, this is philly. every department store gets messy spots that seem to be in perpetual disarray, but this was stand-out bad. i mean, i honestly couldn't pass through a cerain 20' x 20' section of the store because it was stacked floor-to-moveable-wall with carts and clothes and racks. i can't imagine how the staff even got in or around it. i wouldn't be surprised if there were some kind of infestation in there and at least one lost child. yikes. and perhaps it wouldn't have bothered me if i thought they were moving things around or doing some kind of clean-out or inventory. unfortunately, i think that's just the norm now. clean that $h%& up, Target. geez. read more

A bit disorganized, all the good stuff is usually out of stock and it feels a little washed out inside.
