Of course, I did see some complaints about sizing issues or a delay in their order, so maybe it's best to double check all the details, just in case, before clicking "buy."

Bass Pro Shops in Bridgeport is definitely a place, offering a decent selection of stuff for outdoorsy folks—you know, fishing, hunting, camping. They sell clothes and shoes too, which is convenient if you're looking for a new pair of hiking boots. Also, they have a bowling alley and an arcade, which is a great idea when it comes to entertaining a whole family that goes shopping there.
Lots of folks seem impressed with the store's decor, plus the variety of what's available is amazing, and they enjoy how it feels to be there. Apparently the aquarium is a must-see, and bowling at Uncle Buck's Fishbowl and Grill is a cool way to spend an afternoon. Employees, like Leah, Karl, Max, Lorenzo, and Terra are usually super helpful. But just know, sometimes people have issues with customer service, particularly in the hunting and boating areas; some had trouble with firearm purchases and mentioned certain employees weren't particularly helpful. It's probably also worth mentioning that a couple of people mentioned the prices are kinda high, and stock sometimes fluctuates.

Okay, so Urban Outfitters in New Haven? It's a clothing shop around there, or so I hear, with a reputation for somewhat of an unorthodox style that's reflected in their stock. They have really cute clothes, but it's a bit pricey. I guess the draw is that it's more than just somewhere to buy new jeans or a top; it has, also, a lot of home decor. Honestly, I think it's the aesthetic they go for, you know? That slightly-too-cool-for-school thing that makes it popular.
Word on the street is the atmosphere there is really something, customers say its "chill" and that the shop feels uniquely designed. If their social media accounts are anything to go by, their music seems pretty good, too, if that's your kind of music. I've heard the employees are great, especially if you need help. Some shoppers feel some of their clothing prices are a bit high but they're often having sales.

Work Hard Dress Right, situated in New Haven, is a clothing store that specializes in work uniforms, especially medical attire; think scrubs for doctors and nurses.

Customers really appreciate their patience and how efficient they are when it comes to figuring out uniform needs. I saw some reviews online where people say the staff goes the extra mile to make sure everything fits right and the service is quick, plus they create a welcoming vibe. Of course, there's always gonna be a few downsides. Some customers have mentioned delays with online orders, and a couple of folks had issues with how accurate the embroidery turned out. Also, people had trouble getting a hold of someone on the phone.

#49 Charlotte Russe

Charlotte Russe in Stamford *was* supposedly a go-to for trendy stuff without completely breaking the bank; apparently, a ton of people appreciated the variety, and the ability to snag some seriously sweet discounts. Word on the street is, if you were looking for a clothing shop that had tons of options nearby, it was super popular. Though, I did read some reviews mentioning it either closing or has closed, which is a bummer though, isn't it?
A lot of shoppers seemed to genuinely dig their visits; they'd talk about scoring amazing prices on cute clothes, and how simple it was to find a good deal. I even saw a couple of shoutouts to especially helpful employees, the kind who can actually make your shopping trip better. Of course, there were some complaints scattered in there, mainly about staff being kind of rude. I even saw a few stories about workers straight-up ignoring folks, or managers acting super unprofessional, then issues with returns – which nobody wants that. Honestly, customer service can really make or break a place, right?

#50 Macy's
151 Broad St, Town Center Dr Mall, Stamford, CT 06901
Thursday: [10 AM-9 PM], Friday: [10 AM-9 PM], Saturday: [10 AM-9 PM], Sunday: [11 AM-7 PM], Monday: [10 AM-9 PM], Tuesday: [10 AM-9 PM], Wednesday: [10 AM-9 PM]
I hear Macy's in Stamford is a pretty standard department store, stocked with most things you’d expect, from clothes and shoes to home goods and makeup - its location in the Stamford Town Center definitely makes it convenient, if you're already in the mall. Plenty have mentioned that Macy's does offer a lot of different brands and prices, especially if you’re willing to hunt through the Backstage discount area; it's one of those places where you could potentially score a great deal.
Honestly, it sounds mostly like people have had good experiences, particularly when they've found helpful staff members, and sometimes those people can really make your day. There were folks, like Nathan, Maria and Layla in shoes and furniture, who people specifically called out for being super knowledgeable and going the extra mile. Others also appreciated the effort they seemed to be putting into keeping the store clean, which is always a plus. It’s too bad some find it's a hit-or-miss situation regarding organization and staffing; not sure how many can relate, but it does seem fairly important to have a good experience.

#51 Madrag
148 Boston Ave, Bridgeport, CT 06610
Thursday: [10 AM-8:30 PM], Friday: [10 AM-9 PM], Saturday: [10 AM-9 PM], Sunday: [11 AM-7 PM], Monday: [10 AM-8:30 PM], Tuesday: [10 AM-8:30 PM], Wednesday: [10 AM-8:30 PM]
Madrag in Bridgeport has a pretty decent selection if you're looking for something new. They do have a ton of clothes from club attire to more office-appropriate stuff; plus, who doesn't love a good clearance rack? You can also find accessories and often, it seems, they're trying to keep up with the current trends hitting the runways, which is good if you're trying to dress like an influencer without spending that much. I mean, it could be the "best clothing store in Bridgeport" especially when you factor in the prices.
I've seen people saying they always find something cute, plus they run sales, which helps. Some mention how helpful the staff is, specifically one manager that pulled an outfit together. And they seem to have a very diverse staff, which is appreciated. Of course, not every experience is amazing, I've also come across reviews mentioning the service is really slow, that some of the staff is kind of rude, and that the clothes are cheaply made. But on the flip side, some folks said the sales associates are extremely helpful and really went the extra mile when assisting customers, which makes a difference, you know?

#52 Madrag
30 Kane St, West Hartford, CT 06119
Monday: [10 AM-8:30 PM], Tuesday: [10 AM-8:30 PM], Wednesday: [10 AM-8:30 PM], Thursday: [10 AM-8:30 PM], Friday: [10 AM-9 PM], Saturday: [10 AM-9 PM], Sunday: [11 AM-6 PM]
Madrag in Hartford is a store I keep hearing about; apparently, they have a lot of cute stuff for women. The big draw sounds is the fact it doesn't cost a fortune to look good, supposedly you can snag a trendy outfit without completely emptying your wallet.
Word on the street is Madrag keeps it fresh, and some people are saying the quality is actually decent for the price point. I've heard that they get new stuff in all the time, that's why people like it. Plus, a bunch of folks mention how nice and helpful the staff is which I heard, some of the managers are not good. But not everyone is thrilled; store credit only for returns? That's a bit old school, and if you want your cash back, it's impossible. It's a bummer when you realize that thing you got, doesn't fit right!
