I wanted to DIY my cabinet, and The Caning Shop is one of the few stores I found in the Bay Area that offers great quality cane materials. The store owner was very helpful, he gave me a lot of advice about how to stretch the cane and how to adhere it to my cabinet doors (see pic for finished result!). I'd highly recommend this shop!

Wonderful repair job by The Caning Shop

Dropped off some items that we wanted to donate. The staff were very nice and even helped us with…read moreremoval from our car.

Last September, sometime during the month, I visited this arts and crafts store. I don't remember…read morethe exact date, but I arrived around 11:00 AM, thinking the store might already be open. When I checked the sign on the building, I realized that it was scheduled to open at 12:00 noon. I decided to wait, and I noticed that I wasn't the only customer waiting outside. There were several others waiting for the store to open, too. I called the phone number listed and spoke with a young lady. I asked if anyone was inside the building because someone had opened the door for us. She apologized and explained that nobody was inside at the time. She then offered to call someone to find out what was happening. After I waited, she got back to me and said they were running late. I'm sorry, but I believe that when you own or operate a business, you should make sure you arrive on time and are ready to serve your customers according to your posted business hours. Customers make the effort to travel to your store, sometimes using their time and spending money on gas, expecting the business to be open as advertised. Since it was Friday and I had already waited long enough, I eventually decided to leave and drive back home to Walnut Creek. I was disappointed because I had made the trip specifically to visit the store and shop for things I was interested in buying, but I ended up wasting my time and gas. I don't know what time the staff eventually arrived because I left shortly after noon. I understand that unexpected things can happen, but customers should not be left waiting outside without knowing when the store will open. I hope the management takes this experience into consideration and makes sure the store is properly staffed and ready to open on time in the future. Good customer service begins with respecting your customers' time. I hope my next visit will be a better experience.
