1969 New Scotland Rd # 4, Slingerlands“I absolutely love this place! It is THE place to go! They carry every size imaginable and are so nice and professional while also being personable! They accept everyone and are super non judgemental!”
“How I found the best swag shop in Albany? I went to a concert at the MVP arena and was told my bag was too big to enter with. Damn! I told my sister to hold out there at the gate and I went looking for a place to get a smaller bag. Right up the street I found Fresh&Fly. Angelo was behind the counter and hooked me up quick with the perfect bag. Then he offers to keep my bigger bag for me overnight so I didn't have to throw it away. Never met a sales person this cool! I didn't have time to look around as I had to go back to the MVP. Bag worked like a charm.Next day I go back to the shop and Angelo is there holding my bag out for me. We chatted about the concert and then I got a chance to actually look around the store. Best stuff I've seen. I mean quality, color, design (Some of which is Angelo's original ). The place isn't big but the selection is great with unique items and nice layout. I bought a hoodie with Angelo's own design and the quality is outstanding. This place is sweet!”
“I love Peter Harris and I was enjoying the coupon and points program, unfortunately I was told today it is ending at the end of May. Of course I will still shop, it's a fun and relaxing place to buy clothes for my whole family.”
“I made an appointment for a fitting. I had a great experience and for once I feel like I finally fit into a bra. Jackie is really great at what she does. She also offered affordable but beautiful and well fitting bras. I can’t wait to go back as I have my eye on a delicate set that I must make mine.”

“Absolutely LOVE this location. Staff is so pleasant. I leave smiling every time I go. It is clean and the product placement looks great. The cash wrap area is never a mess either. It’s really an awesome shopping experience. I greatly appreciate my interaction with the store manager last week. He may not have known but I was really struggling. Thank you.”

“I had a couple coupons so I went to browse but wasn’t really planning to buy at the time. A sale rep greeted me and check in off and on as I told her I was just browsing. I ended up buying some stuff and I told her I left my phone in car with my $20 coupon. I received a survey and gave a great review because of this reps customer service. Today I came home and I got a thank you card from the rep (now I know her name is Karen). She remembered our interaction 100%. This is so rare now a days and much appreciated by me.”

402 Balltown Rd, Niskayuna“Such a friendly and warm store. Excellent quality clothing and very reasonable prices. It's usually not super busy, dressing rooms are clean and spacious, and the cashiers are helpful.”
“We have a plus size teenage daughter who is still trying to find her style and is starting high school in a few weeks. As such, shopping has always brought anxiety and stress and back to school shopping was dreaded in our household. Yesterday we wondered into Buckle in Crossgates Mall and had the best experience thanks to the wonderful individuals who assisted us. Upon walking in we were greeted by Tony. We explained that we were letting our daughters look around so as to not cause extra anxiety. She understood the assignment and was so gracious with us. She introduced us to Kendrick (a literal God sent). Both Tony and Kendrick guided our daughter through the store, suggested items that we would’ve never suggested, and took time to look around the store for items she might try. When she didn’t fit into the regular sizes, Kendrick instilled faith in us (literally pulled me aside and told us he got us and that he would not destroy her confidence) that we would find pieces for her to try. Tony and Kendrick suggested the Gabby jeans and 93s which fit her so well, she NEVER wears denim but LOVED the fit. We left in tears with multiple items that our daughter loved. Most importantly, they built her confidence, and made her feel accepted and included in this space. We are incredibly grateful for their patience and commitment to assisting their customers. We highly recommend Kendrick as a lead and truly believe he needs a raise ?”
“Pure Barre Latham is a wonderful facility with friendly staff! I was very impressed by how clean the studio and store front was. Aisling taught our class. She was very knowledgeable and helpful for a beginner like me. I had a great time and plan to go back soon!”

26 Cortland Dr, Albany“This is a hidden gem in Albany, NY! My husband and I were in need of tailoring services on a tight turnaround and this business owner exceeded our expectations. Her services were affordable, $65 for the two items combined, yet her experience is evident. We felt welcomed and at ease leaving her shop. She even offered a tutorial after hearing I had difficulty removing the salwar top. Thanks so much for helping us look the part for our cousin’s wedding.”
“My favorite clothing store over the last few years! The majority of my wardrobe is from here for work and for every day casual. I get so many compliments on my outfits from here. Quality is fantastic and fits a variety of body types. The staff is always welcoming and helpful. Always such a treat coming here. Thank you!”
“Love this store, one of the only indigenous stores in the mall. The staff is always so helpful, and it’s my go to place to get Peruvian jewelry and decorations. They’re very affordable and have beautiful things.”

1 Crossgates Mall Rd, Albany“I went to the Carhartt store in Crossgates Mall, Albany to buy some pants. I found a pair in my size and needed another. Jackie offered to help me, There was not another pair in my size in stock so she showed me a different style that I liked better. While she was ringing up my purchases I changed my mind about the color of one pair so she created a refund and charged it again. Jackie was so cheerful and helpful. She answered all my questions. She's a great asset to your store. Thanks, Jackie!”

131 Colonie Center, Albany“My family and I own a dry cleaner, we have been pressing shirts for over 4 decades and without a doubt llbean button downs are the HIGHEST quality shirt money can buy. We’ve seen it all, dry rotted, rips, missing buttons and not yet one bad llbean shirt. Don’t waste your money anywhere else just grab an llbean and you will not regret it! Great customer service and Lise is amazing! Very helpful!”

1 Crossgates Mall Rd, Albany“Awesome prices and quality too…..! That’s the right combination as a customer, we have been looking forward to find.Great with prices, but if at all they increase any prices in future, I would definitely back out.”
“As a middle-aged, cis, white male, I enjoy stopping at Eddie Bauer to pick up a new hoodie to add to my rotation whenever it's time (past time, really) to retire an older hoodie. I also found a nice rain jacket, and finally decided to drop some coin on that niche of outdoor apparel; here's to keeping the upper half of my body shielded from rain, yet susceptible to being saturated with sweat if it's worn for too long in warm weather.”
“Probably the best outlet store on the planet. Indistinguishable from regular J Crew (outside of the prices), I'm always able to find my upcoming seasonal wardrobe here.”
“This was my first time at this store. The girls Ashley and Nicole were very helpful. I was fifty cents away from using all my Torrid cash. The girls were able to help me locate something so that I was able to get all of my rewards. Kudos to them.”
“I am impressed by the collection in old navy cross gates mall especially low waisted baggy jeans for women. The associates were so helpful and kind, the line was so long when I went in but they were quick and efficient. I will be going back soon for my grand daughter :)”

1 Crossgates Mall Rd Space A-211, Albany“Best Banana Republic store I have ever been too. Very clean and organize with an amazing staff that goes above and beyond to guarantee costumer satisfaction. Mat was very polite and knowledgeable about everything”
“I was passing through and decided to stop in. Glad I did. I love the right side of store with furniture, decorations, kitchenware, wall art and more. Left side is all clothing, shoes, and handbags. Clean and AC was great! Some items are pricey and I just moved on to accommodate my budget. Got a great light jacket that has never been worn! Lisa Wallock, Associate Broker, Kellie Kieley Realty.”
