Excellent service and product knowledge.

The staff who helped me were very pleasant and knowledgeable about the bike I was buying. The attention to detail was exemplary when preparing the bike for me to take and I was kept updated during the process. I really can’t praise the service too highly.

Adam served me having been called in to help by his manager and told not to disappoint him.

Adam certainly didn’t disappoint. He steered me to a slightly more expensive rucksack but explained the benefits of the alternative and demonstrated how it was better than the one on offer.

Many thanks.

Staff were incredibly helpful from the minute we walked in the door. A member of staff from Fishing took me to the back carriers and then when I needed more information he got Adam who had the expertise to come and help me.
Adam was incredibly knowledgeable and helped me find the right carrier without any pressure regarding cost. He was fantastic. Jared was great on the tills and helped me sign up to Go Outdoors to receive a discount.
Thank you to all the staff. Would definitely recommend.

Outstanding Help When I Needed It Most

The staff at the Canterbury Wincheap store are really lovely and clearly care a lot about their job and their customers. I've always found them to be extremely knowledgeable, friendly and patient, taking the time to explain which products are best suited to my needs without ever making me feel like I'm taking up too much of their time or asking silly questions.

On a recent visit, I accidentally found myself locked in the car park after the store had closed. As I was trying to work out how to get home, a member of staff returned to the site and very kindly took the time to let me out. I was incredibly grateful for his help and willingness to go above and beyond at the end of his day.

It's rare to find such genuinely helpful customer service these days, and it's one of the reasons I keep coming back to this store. Thank you to the whole team!

Excellent customer service Adam

Excellent customer service from
Adam tonight with support and guidance for buying a backpack for daughter’s interrailing trip. Made us think beyond our initial ideas and undoubtedly we left with better and more suitable kit as a result. Excellent, thank you!
