Rated 4 out of 5 stars

Very welcoming and helpful staff. Especially staff member Kate. But also her colleague whom I didn't get her name. Both an asset to this store/company.

A well stocked store with a good range. Staff were proactive and friendly and worked well as a team. Kate was particularly patient with getting almost every size of shoe down for me!

Excellent service at Blacks Salisbury when Ricky? exchanged gloves that hadn't fit properly for better ones. Helpful advice without undue pressure. Would always go there for outdoor clothing.

Rich was outstanding.

Rich was friendly, polite, humerous and devilishly handsome. He was knowledgeable about what I needed and exactly where to find it all. I bought a torch, carabiner and some powerbanks. Thanks Rich!

Great service to back up great products

Called in looking for a new pair of waterproof walking shoes. Served by Rich, who was warm, friendly, informative and very helpful. Discussed the merits of a couple of options without ever pressing for the sale. Even offered that, if we broke in the shoes at home, we could return if genuinely uncomfortable. Great service which resulted in the sale. I have purchased a number of items recently and good service is always at the heart of what the staff do. Definitely happy to recommend.

I purchased a Eurohike 120L COB headtorch (code:EHKAA10474BLK) at Blacks, Salisbury yesterday.
The sealed packaging clearly stated ‘3 x AAA batteries included’ and ‘Remove tab in battery compartment before use’.

I wanted to use the headtorch immediately - so imagine my disappointment when I discovered there were no batteries in the package at all.

Eurohike gave misleading Information and should revise their packaging

Sarah was amazing, nothing was too much trouble, even though we had her running up and down to the stock room on multiple occasions. We came away with what we needed, and are very happy.
