Great place to take pics. Fish are awesome. Clothing is really expensive and we usually just walk around and feed the fish. Dont usually buy anything as its like 196. A shirt.

We recently visited the Orvis Store at 4382 Main Street, Manchester, VT.We were warmly greeted by Monica Finan, Sales Associate, and were asked how she could help us. Monica helped us find two matching vests, and a shirt/jacket. One of the items needed to come from the warehouse, and Monica went out of her way to arrange for a speedy shipment to our home. She was happy to provide size and fit opinions, and made us feel comfortable with our selections and purchases.Please Thank Her in a meaningful way. Good employees like Monica are hard to find, and are the backbone of any successful business.Sincerely, Glenn and Barbara from NJ.

Only Fly fishing and rifles, not like a trading post. There were live trout and feed for them, so that was cute to see. The prices are high but assumably on point for the products and audience. The staff were attentive to my husbands questions and I bought a long sleeved shirt of nice quality. If youre a fly fishing enthusiast, this place is great! If youre an outdoor enthusiast, itll be neat for a quick peek but nothing to write home about.

Another American success story, the Orvis Company and Brand has been around for generations. This is their new Flagship store built a few years ago in 2017. Also located here is their fly rod factory and across the street their Fly Fishing School. Walking distance to the American Museum of Fly Fishing, another must stop! Not just for the fisherman, the place is loaded with everything for the outdoors, boots, camping gear, clothing. You name it. Their grounds are wonderful with the trout stocked ponds. If in the area, a must stop to visit and shop!

Extremely well kept and nice store, employees are extremely helpful and there’s a fish feeding pond for kids. The downside is everything is 3x more expensive and the employees can’t tell you why. As an example a Jax red flannel shirt that would cost $30-$40 anywhere else was $150 there.

A classic. We always go with our Chocolate lab when we visit Manchester. We actually bought an elephant toy that he has not been able to destroy. The flyfishing area is lovely. While pricy their clothes and housewares are the best quality. There is an outlet store which is cheaper next door.

We shopped at the outlet store and found the prices to still be quite high. We did get a good deal on a dog bed for $49. The guys were quite friendly while the female sales person not so much but everyone has a bad day. Check it out and make sure you search around for the best deal!

This location and the outlet down the street have everything for fly fishing and upland bird hunting you will ever need. The staff are knowledgeable and just plain nice folks. Also, their rods are excellent and they stand by their products with one of the best warranties in the business.

Bought the 3wt 8’4” Recon. Hydros II real. Pro line. Rod works great. 12” to 22” made for a great experience. Wasn’t sure on the length but it throws the line beautifully.

I recently received thier catalog as I do alot of mail orders from various stores. I dont doubt the quality of thier products are good, however the prices! This is a rich mans store. I dont think I saw a single clothing item under 89 dollars! I thought ll bean and the Vermont country store was high they are worse

Was given a $200 gift card to get a fly fishing rod and reel. Drove 70 miles to look at the few choices under $200 they show online. Was informed when I arrived that they dont have the Encounter models in the shop, in other words, I could not buy anything for that price. What a pretentious, over-priced, waste of time!. I guess this overpriced shop is for the 1 per-centers.

I never leave empty handed. Superior quality clothing made for the outdoors, but work as everyday wear. Pet products that also dont skimp on quality.A fishermans paradise..world famous, right by their unique indoor/ outdoor trout pond!Beautifully crafted shotguns, gifts, home accessories. All this in a wonderfully designed, spacious setting and a truly excellent staff.

Review №34

We loved coming to the Orvis store during our trip to Manchester.The staff is very friendly, happy to see the number of dogs coming through, offer free water/soda, and are very willing to help with anything you need. We also enjoyed sitting near one of their trout ponds. Kids (and adults) can feed the monster trout with food out of a small dispenser.If you are interested in fly fishing or hunting, this is a place you should add to your list. Not quite as large as LL Bean’s Freeport store, but still has all that you’d want it to.

High end outlet store with all the great products youve come to know and love. Staff are friendly, very knowledgeable and accommodating. They host a Dog Dock Diving event there, and its wonderful fun for the kids.

Really nice fly fishing store with gear and clothes. Theres an adjacent fishing school thats part of Orvis Co. which we didnt try. They also have an inside open trout tank as well as multi-tier areas outside to see and feed the fish. Further down is a pond if you want to test your flies on some bluegill and bass.

Review №46

Not what it used to be. I ordered a shirt with a total of $53 with shipping. The shirt, although canvas, turned out to be as thin as linen. It was a beautiful shirt, but didnt serve my purposes at all. I returned the shirt, and was charged a total of $15.44 for shipping and return. Lesson learned. Stick to companies with free returns, which includes most businesses these days.Update, 5 days later.After posting this review, I suddenly received an additional refund of 6.95 for shipping. I asked for this 5 days ago while chatting with the CSR, but was adamantly denied. So my hope is that Orvis decided to do the right thing to satisfy the customer, after seeing this review. I can honestly say that this refund has once again made me decide to keep shopping at my local Orvis store in Myrtle Beach, as well as online. Had I been a customer that makes frequent unwarranted returns, I could understand being denied shipping cost refund.So I have upgraded my rating of THIS transaction to 3 star, due to the issues getting the refund, but Orvis finally deciding to please the customer. Prior to this transaction, all of my orvis transactions have been 5 star.

Very cool store for any fly fisherman or dog enthusiast. They have an awesome selection of sporting gear, and dont miss out on a discount building next door to the main location. There you can find some pretty good deals especially if you are purchasing something in the offseason on the second level. We got a very cute collar for our dog. This place is definitely pricey but you can find some truly beautiful things and the quality of their sportswear is generally well worth the price. I am just not someone who wants to pay $180 for a dog bed so that part of the store did not appeal to us much. We purchased a pair of waders and a womans sweater and spent well over $300.

Fly fishing heaven and much more! Purchased new waders, brought back a sling pack with a broken zipper. Was given a new one no questions asked. It was a very busy day (memorial day weekend) but was still provided with excellent service from a friendly staff.

Received excellent guidance on wading boot selection; very prompt and courteous service (Sales Associate, Bill.) Boots arrived quickly with free shipping. I just tried the boots, the Riverguard Ultralight with studs, and they are excellent in all respects. They go on off very easily, are very comfortable, provide excellent traction while wading the rocky stream bed and, very importantly, while ascending and descending the steep riverside banks.

Too expensive for such low quality. They look down on people who arent rich. Any time I go in, I get dirty looks (if I get looked at at all) and no help. They dont treat employees well either. The clothing is ugly and the rods are over priced. However, the outlet is full of nice and helpful, happy people. Much better priced for the quality.
