Ive been in 4 or 5 different Joanns store. This was my first visit at this location. I walked in and surprised that i felt like i had walked into an old thrift store. Dim, dingy, and messy. Usually everything looks bright and new, inviting. I needed some yarn and they had an ok selection. My issue was that i had to walk from one end of the store too see it and then found it in 2 other areas, away from the rest. I also was surprised to see the prices were more than at my usual location. I ended up leaving without any yarn!! If you know a yarn addict, you would know how crazy that is!

A very nice young lady named Maddie checked me out. Had a huge smile on her face and was so patient. Store has lots of yarns as well

JoAnn is my go-to fabric store AFTER I check Mardens and Walmart. They usually have the notions I need, and they have a lot of craft supplies, but if youre looking for garment fabric, the selection is rather poor... unless you want to make your clothing out of Blizzard fleece, quilting cotton, or flannel.

I love joanns but I do feel theyre extremely overpriced for things you can get easily at Michaels or Mardens or any discount store really. I do like to shop their discounted items every now and then!

All of the workers tell a different tale, one says they have something, another says they dont. I always try to talk to a manager because thats the only time I get an answer. When making a phone call, Im usually stuck on hold for 43 minutes and never get my questions answered. Low on stock for many items I need like resin. Its super pricy and I previously found out that I can get all the molds I bought at Joanns on amazon, all together for double less than what I payed all together at Joanns. They do have items though that no one else has like a particular chain for necklaces I use so it is helpful to know that I can go there and find what I need when it comes to that.

Went in to pick up new throw pillows (inserts) and was thrilled to find good quality & they were on sale!

Review №21

Love the store itself, not too happy with the customer service. They have a wonderful selection of all your crafty needs and like the name obviously says, a HUGE fabric section. I just wish they employed more people at the registers rather than the fabric department. It takes so long to get through that checkout process. Overall, I enjoy this store but it isnt without issue from time to time

Review №22

My local Joanns is fairly large but it cant be all things to all people. It has a pretty good selection of decorating fabrics and notions. If you are a quilter it has a good selection of those fabrics. If you want to make a nice garment you would probably look elsewhere. Childrens fabrics ate better and of course tons of fleece, not really my thing but there must be a market for that. All in all can usually find something close to what I need. Lots of crafting supplies and really nice, helpful employees.

I always love to look at the large selection of craft supplies. Regular prices are a bit steep. Fortunately, with their sales and coupons I get a great deal!

The whole store smelled heavily of marijuana.

Always love shopping at the Topsham location. Theyre so much nicer than the one in Portland. Theyre also spokeo much more knowledgeable about the products. They also treat me like a customer should be treated. The Portland location doesnt care for male customers who know what theyre shopping for.

So during Covid my girlfriend need a certain color of yarn and this Joanns had it but their website, Google, and store locator all said the store would open at 10 am and we called and the woman who awnsered was rude and said they do not open until 11 am and we drove over an hour and half for this bad experience. This happened at the Topsham Fair Mall in Maine, all the other stores are great

Curbside pickup is timely. The longest part is the lengthy message when you call the store

Great selection of fabric and craft accessories. Like that staff leave you to browse and are available for questions when needed. Love this place.

Review №34

Fabric galore, sewing and serger machines, crafting materials for: knitting, crocheting, paper crafting, jewelry making, wreaths and so much more.Sign up for email notifications because the deep discount coupons help the artificially high prices when coupons are used to make reasonable prices.Be prepared for a wait at fabric cutting and at checkout.

This Joanns has a wonderful collection of arts and crafts materials. Better than most stores.

Review №36

Great selection and sale prices right now. I found what I wanted and service was friendly and efficient.

Review №37

VERY unfriendly staff. I asked a girl that was stocking the section I was looking in, if I was in the right area (after JUST watching her point another customer in the right direction) and she rudely interrupted me and told me, ask her while pointing towards the center of the store. If she didnt want to help me, she could have told me in a nicer way. All she said was ask her. Maybe they should train their staff how to kindly direct customers to another associate who could better meet their needs, if necessary?? Even mentally handicapped employees are able to learn the correct way to tell customers to where to go, if trained properly, so there really is NO excuse for such poor customer interactions. (And if an employee is NOT capable of appropriate social interactions, they usually have an aide with them.)

Absolutely love these stores. If you like crafting, sewing andso much more. This is the pkace for you. If you dont know how. They have classes to learn how to make things.

Jo
Review №49

I love it but my significant other is on the fence. You have to remember to crack the windows for them or else you run the risk of them coming in to find you after 2 hours, because you stopped in for just a seam ripper and you may have two carts going!

Great store. I have been going for many years to many stores. Always my favorite.

Ja
Review №51

Very disappointed. I bought materials to make ornaments with some children. I didnt use most of the material so I sent my 17 year daughter to return it for me. It was an online receipt and the cashier didnt know how to process it, so she processed it as a return without a receipt. Since most of the stuff is on sale I lost 20 dollars. I went in and spoke to a manager who said they would look into it and call me. That was 4 days ago. Unfortunate, because I spend a lot of my money to help kids out.

I do enjoy shopping here but they really push constant coupon deals but I always have to battle to have prices adjusted because deals and coupons dont add up right.

Long time Joann customer, but in the past year it has ceased carrying the art and crafting supplies I am most interested in. I continue to get coupons daily, but the sales are confusing and items are not clearly marked. I dont think the employees are very happy either, as they were openly complaining about each other in front of customers the other day. I get that it was busy and stressful, but it was still unprofessional.
