Ellie and Bea ìs a very well run independant boutique. The Staff are very friendly and professional and are always ready to help with any clothing or accessories which a customer may choose to purchase. I would certainly recommend Elle and Bea as a first class independant boutique.

Very rude!!!

Very rude staff. Went there just a few days after Christmas to try to exchange an item that was bought as a gift by my husband and unfortunately it was way too big. When we came in the lady that was at the counter asked for the receipt and then said that is a sale item so no refunds or exchanges- it says so on the receipt!(Although when he did buy the item was assured by the salesperson that if the size doesn’t fit it can be exchanged.)Then she almost threw the bag back at my husband saying to him with a very snarky remark “well you did a very good job there, didn’t you”!
I work in retail and have been in lots of shops before but never in my life I have encountered such a poor customer service and rude attitude towards customers! I wouldn’t recommend it at all! Stay away from it! Overpriced items that you could easily find somewhere else and with a better customer experience!
PS. On the receipt it does say all sale items are non refundable but it doesn’t say anywhere is non exchangeable! Nothing on their website either!

Excellent customer service

I ordered a summer dress - unfortunately it did not suit me so returned for a refund. I received the refund quickly. Would not hesitate to order from them again and also hope to visit in person.

I had excellent customer service from Gwen and I purchased two necklaces and a small bag which was in the window which attracted me before I walked into the store. Ellie and Bea is a beautifully merchandised shop selling clothes and accessories and Gwen has a very hard working team behind her.

What a fantastic shopping experience with Ellie & Bea. I was hunting down a particular Hope & Ivy dress and needed it next day in NI - the lovely Jamie went to the bother of going to the post office and giving me options on pricing and got it in the post straight away. Great service and I love my dress. Thank you so much
