Belle and Dani took much care and effort trying to get me the very best supporting shoes for my trip to Iceland. They asked excellent questions and gave me so much information and very useful feedback. I always go to this store and am thrilled with Dani. This time young Belle amazed me with her skills knowledge and professionalism. I will be back!! Diane

Great Assistants

Second visit to this store in a month. Both Celeste and Jackie were very helpful and knowledgeable about the products. They didn’t try to sell me the most expensive item and gave me the time to choose what was best for me. Friendly and chatty ladies, who are both a great asset to the store. I purchased on both occasions.

Amazing service by Belle

Belle helped me buy my first pair of walking shoes. She was friendly, knowledgeable and didn’t pressure me at all. She was happy to keep getting different shoes for me to try until I found the perfect pair. Thank you for all your help Belle

Excellent Customer Service

All of the staff we spoke to today were really friendly and helpful.
When we got to the checkout we were pleasantly surprised when Matt informed us that we could get 3 for 2 on our water bottles which was very kind as we were completely unaware. He even knew where some more stock was when I found the shelf I went to wax empty 😊

While we do always strive for our website to correctly reflect our current levels of stock, occasionally errors occur and we are sorry that your recent click and collect order was affected.

From checking that order we can see that a full refund was issued and this should now be visible in your account.

Thank you for taking the time to leave your review. We hope that we can be of assistance in the future.

Awful

half of order refunded as not available, went to collect the remaining part of order from my local branch as instructed via email, staff said they have no record of order and and I have to contact online customer service to resolve.
unfair to blame any individual at the branch, more the click and collect system.
Awful.

Helpful staff!

Went to buy walking boots for my upcoming holiday. Denise was extremely helpful and knew straight away which ones would suit my wide feet. She fetched several pairs and was very patient. Definitely knew her stuff!
It was a nice spacious environment and prices were very good too!

The guy who served me on the till was great, very friendly and helpful. I forgot my blue light card until I had paid but he happily refunded the additional discount for me. Unfortunately the other staff on duty weren't equally pleasant or it would have been 5 stars.

Poor communication regarding Click and Collect

Ive always had excellent service from Go Outdoors but was let down with my latest order. I tried to place this multi item order for delivery to my home address but for some reason one of the items was deemed unsuitable for delivery. Disappointing but I could still collect from my nearest store.
However, after 8 days and no email to let me know it was in store and awaiting collection. I eventually visited the store to find that, thankfully, it was there.
Communication definitely needs improvement regarding the items ready for collection and if an item is unsuitable for delivery can you indicate which item is not suitable.
