Eggleston Garden Center & Farmers Market — Local services in Norfolk

The lady at the desk was kind of short and rude to me. Instead of answering my questions nicely, she was very condescending and talked to me like I should already know everything she was telling me. Forgive me for thinking I could go to a garden center with my plant questions… I initially went to see if I could get a plant I brought from home repotted, I didn’t know that I needed an appointment. I let her know that I had no problem with making an appointment and coming back at another time but she followed that with “because well what do you want me to do?!? Drop everything just to repot your plant when I have a line?” (There was no line 😂, aside from myself there was maybe 2 other people there)

The garden center itself has a nice selection, customer service could...

I am so amazed at Eggleston garden center, and especially miss Livi! Livi was super helpful & knowledgeable. I am new to gardening and has loads of questions, Livi answered everything thoroughly and even made suggestions since I needed guidance. There were so many options, I came out with more than expected! Thats okay though because the prices were AWESOME! I've been to other garden centers and your jaw will DROP at those prices. (Not in a good way like my jaw dropped at Eggleston's affordable prices!)

I am so excited to plant my new plants & I will be back to check out Eggleston's beautiful selection and say hi to Livi! Thank you guys SOOOO...

I went there last week to purchase flowers. I didn't realize that the flowers I was looking at on a cart were being unloaded. One of the employees asked me to let them unload and then I could shop. I went over to another section and looked while she unloaded the cart. I returned to browse when the cart had been unloaded. I was told I was in the way two more times while trying to look so I decided to leave. The employee was very rude. I will not be shopping here again. I was made to feel that I was a nuisance. I have worked in retail and you do not talk to customers like this. Take your business somewhere else where you will be valued...
