Capital Tailors operates out of a house with a small parking lot in the back. The first time I went…read moreto see Judy, I got a pair of jeans shortened and straps on a fancy top (both under $10 each to fix). Judy tells you the cost of each repair up front, which I appreciate...it sucks being surprised when picking up your clothes, and it costs more than you originally expected. I usually give her one week to complete my "order", and the quality and price are worth the wait. I also appreciate the convenience of private parking near 99 street, behind the house. And it's only blocks away from Wild Earth Cafe, Culina and Route 99. My favourite tailor on the city.

I brought them my strapless wedding dress to hem, add a bustle and sleeves. They blamed me…read morerepeatedly for wanting sleeves and came up with the ugliest design for these t-shirt sleeves for a wedding dress. The bustle looked really odd and ugly. I finally paid and took it to Mariellen of Alstair's design in St. Albert. Mariellen was very helpful and able to make the bustle look beautiful and put on new sleeves. she was stunned that I paid for the work that was done. Capital Tailors did what was asked. Their shop was 27 degrees and I was dripping sweat in the dress. At points I just wanted to cry. They also had one visit where they told me not to gain any more weight. It was a very difficult experience because I didn't even want to put on my dress anymore. it was very well priced for a poor job.

So I had to pay another $20 to get my shirt today. The woman was rude and would not listen. I have spent hundreds $$ over the years supporting this business. If you want to do business here I suggest you never prepay and never use cash. I'll never be back!

She continued to yell at me & gaslight me that other places lied about the pricing when I questioned the breakdown of her outrageous price.

Part of…read morethe tailoring was missing and when complained to accused me of behaving and being a "child" and made numerous excuses. Paid upfront for the work totalling nearly TWO THOUSAND Dollars and yet it was MY FAULT I was not happy. Threatened to report me to my CO (Nothing to do with him or the regiment I serve with) because I wasn't happy things had not been done and I was the one having to chase the owner down on. I would NOT recommend anyone to this store where the tailor treated me SO poorly, made excuses and was insincere in he lameness of his apology before dismissing me like some dog on the street. Utterly DISGRACEFUL.

I'll be taking all my tailoring to John the Tailor at City Centre from now on. He's good because…read morehe's fast and gets the job done exactly how you want it. I recently needed a new pair of pants altered, and the folks at Club Monaco recommended John the Tailor. They said he was the best in downtown, and that most people in the city core love him. Well, you can add me to that list! The changing rooms are actually changing rooms with locks on the doors, not those small compartments with curtains that make you feel so vulnerable. With a quick tuck here and a single swish of his tailor's chalk, John has your measurements done in no time and you can be off to run other errands in the mall. He doesn't waste your time, and that's one thing I really like about him. He also hums and whistles while he works, which I think is rather endearing. I asked him if he could have my pants (two pairs) done sooner, and he said he'd try to get them done in a day. I came back at the end of the next day, and both my pants were altered just to my liking. It came to $34 for both my pants, which I think is fair for the quality of the work. It's like I bought them just like that. Taking in a pair of pants at the waist will cost more than simply adjusting the hems. The staff are helpful and friendly; one guy was conversing with an elderly lady when I picked up my tailoring. They seem quite busy here, as there is always someone there when I come by, and it seems you have to specifically ask for a rush order, otherwise it could take a few days because they have so many orders coming in. I'm definitely taking my clothes to John again the next time I need some altering done. If you're downtown and need a good tailor, remember -- John's the man! Thanks, John!
