I shopped here with my mother as a kid 30 years ago. I loved coming to the Barn becasue of all the fun toys and athletic equipment as well as the best selection of sneakers. I love the Barn!

When your 13 year old shops the whole mall for shoes and can't find anything BUT ... come to the Barn and you find everything!

My husband 50 years ago went here as a little boy with his mom and we still go here for our 9 and 1 year old. We love the barn!

I remember going to The Barn as a kid with my mom and aunt. I recently relocated to the area, and took a ride there to check it out, and was amazed at the great adult shoe collection they have. I like "good brand" shoes, and I found all of my favorites there--clogs, sandals, and comfy dress shoes--and so many different styles. The staff was inviting, but not pushy, and seemed to be having as much fun as I was. I love this place--and it reminds me of my childhood as they still had those metal foot measuring tools!
Pros: Customer service, selection, parking
Cons: You've got to find it.

"I've been a happy customer of the BARN for over 25 years. For me it's a great, relaxed, no pressure 'one stop shopping' right in my neighborhood--whether I'm looking for a pair of CROCS, a pair of dressy shoes or anything in between including clothing--I can always be sure to find what I'm looking for. The store is always, clean, orderly, well stocked and the staff is knowledgeable, helpful and polite. I want to thank the great staff for all of their help and honest advice over the years!"

Great time saver, everything all in one place, - shoes, sneakers, boots, socks, swinsuits, shorts. And the staff is really helpful -- they actually wait on you!

I was disappointed in this shoe store. I had trouble finding what I wanted and the children's shoes were over-priced! Plus, don't be fooled by the "lenient" return policy. When I tried to return a $50 pair of child's shoes that my son had for one day and wore in the house only, they turned me down - citing a loose thread in a seam (probably there when I bought it!). I will definitely not be back!
Pros: parking
Cons: lousy customer service, high prices
