    Walked here on a lunch break with a coworker during COVID, evidenced by lots of social distancing signage, blue tape on the floor for checkout spacing, and toilet paper/paper towel rolls being sold a la carte at the front of the store (limit 2 of each). It's a hometown hardware store with less stock and higher prices than Lowe's and Home Depot. Plenty of parking in shared shopping center lot. Some persnickety employees (grumpy old men) but majority are friendly, helpful when available. Place is well kept, fairly clean, and pretty easy to navigate. A co-worker needed some random bolts, a soldering iron, and a few electronic ends. I was looking for a 9/16" LH threaded bolt or tap to repair a bike. I struck out but he scored his hardware bounty. Not a wasted trip, especially on foot during a lunch break. If you absolutely need something for a home repair or improvement project but don't have time to search all over, this may not be the one stop you choose.

    2019 plants for the garden.

    Since moving to Chesapeake 3 years ago I've been buying my garden starter plants here. The plants have been consistently well developed and healthy and considerably cheaper than the big box stores up by the interstate. I've also picked up some other garden accessories here as well such as nets for pole beans and an awesome all metal sprinkler last year. In addition I have another story to share regarding one of locksmiths here. Last spring (2018) I had a very old key that I needed duplicated and they were unable to do it as blanks aren't made for that type of key anymore and they were out of them. The locksmith went the extra mile and let me know about another locksmith in the city that could help me out. He didn't have to do that, and it was very appreciated. Great place, friendly people. I'll be using them for years to come.

    Not Home Depot for sure. But quaint...and convenient.

    They sell chicken coops people! Chicken coops! But you're probably not going to Taylor's for a chicken coop--you're probably going there for an around-the-house pieces part that you need and you either 1) don't want to drive all the way to the big box home improvement center to get it, or 2) you just want to support a local small business. Both options are good ones and you'll leave satisfied knowing you did either or both. However . . . Don't come to Taylor's expecting to find a unique widget for a broken piece of whatever you have. It's likely Taylor's won't have it...and if they do, it will probably be more expensive than at a big box store. For me, walking in to Taylor's and oftentimes smelling the popcorn they have for their customers brings back some very fond memories of shopping at the five and dime when I was a kid. Keep some reasonable shopping expectations before you walk through the door and you'll enjoy their friendly staff and limited selection.

    See all

    Totally unlike a "big box" store, we can quickly find what we need, or we can take our time and stroll around.
