Literally the most quintessentially Cambridge shop of all time. Really charming, old timey feel. They know your name and what size suit you wear, etc. Preppy handbook come to life: I wish all retail shops were still like this. Definitely an institution at Harvard! You won't regret stopping by.

These guys are amazing! I ran into some trouble with my travel suit and had to buy a new one. Luckily, while I was attending a class nearby, I stumbled upon The Andover Shop and decided to check it out. They quickly helped me find a few options and got my measurements right. In just a day or so, they tailored my selection perfectly. I'm definitely going back for more this summer! Cheers, Forrest Corral

In the modern age where everything can be had online and with no regard to the people who are behind it, it's refreshing and nice to see places like the Andover Shop have a physical presence in the deluge of e-commerce sites. Where fast fashion has become the trend in recent years, the Andover Shop strives to keep craftsmanship, tradition, and heritage alive. A lot of their items command a premium, but don't let that scare you off. If you're interested but not yet ready to make a purchase, you won't be treated any different. Entering in, you're greeted by the staff here who have a wealth of knowledge and experience. If you're into menswear, the list of places where they've been at previously will be sure to excite you. I was looking around for places to get a Brooks Brothers navy blazer tailored, and on my way, thought I would stop in and see what it was like. Seeing the fit and cut of their jackets, I asked if they could accomodate me and it couldn't have been an easier interaction. It does take some time to finish, but all good things come to those that wait. In recent years I've also become quite fond of Alden shoes, and luckily the Andover shop is one of the few stores in the greater Boston area theat carries them. I'll definitely be back to see some of their special make ups in person! Overall, this is one of my favorite stores to have visited in Boston. I'll definitely be back for some of my future purchases.

Was looking for an umbrella and two employees were kind enough to direct us to more affordable options. If you're looking for an umbrella with a handmade handle to match your fit, then go here.

The Sales manager (J) seems incapable of measuring for a vest at the Andover location. After being brutally rejected from applying to this store by the owners (TM and his father), I returned to get a vest made in Andover. Conveniently, the only try on they had was a 44 for shoulder measurement. This is one whole shoulder size up from me as I know all of my vest measurements. The owners probed me for my client list and a tailor for their Harvard Square location. I offered them a tailor and they still haven't called her after three months . Avoid this place at all costs. Money is only green to them if you have more than 100 million in the bank.

I called the Andover shop in Cambridge and spoke with Jacob Shields who went out of his way to try to track down a particular women's wool coat. He followed up tirelessly calling the wholesaler, figuring out the best size, and then tracking it down. Ultimately the coat i was looking for is no longer available but he even checked online with other stores in the area to see if he could find it. Over the top customer service. An exemplary employee at a quality business.

Best classic traditional neckwear selection in America. Exceptional quality and proper Anglo styling. Eric was a great help and a pleasure to do do business with. I am now officially a fan of The Andover Shop.

One of the best classic menswear shops in the Boston area. The shop itself has a ton of character, and the clothes/accessories are of the highest quality. The staff are also helpful and knowledgable.
