Gabe's — Local services in West Whiteland Township

Absolutely love Gabe's and have shopped there weekly. But from what I heard when I asked today after a very unwelcoming entrance into the store, the great manager (shoulder length blonde hair) they had before is now in Lancaster and a new one (chin length blonde hair) has just taken over. She has a horrible personality for interacting with customers. Walked in today to return an item and shop during their gift card give away (1st 100 customers of the day get a gift card.) As I walked in, the new manager was standing there with the woman who was off to the side giving out gift cards during their 1st 100 to the store promotion. Yesterday when I went in the old manager cheerfully handed me a scratch off gift card which was great and she smiled and was very welcoming. Today, this one glared at me and at my return in my hands without saying a word but took a step forward like she was stopping me. All tough attitude and glare. She never said a word, she never smiled, she never offered to help. I waited to see if she would speak but she didn't, just stood glaring at me and I knew I couldn't go past her. So I said, "returns?" She never lost the angry face and just pointed to the register and said "over there." Never offered the gift card and I was going to shop after returning. So I had to ask for the gift card. I said, " Are you still running the promotion and giving out the gift cards." She pointed to the woman who was doing it and said, "She's got them." and then begrudgingly said to the woman, "Give her one." The attitude was horrible. I didn't really care about the gift card, it was the principle of it - how she was treating me as a customer. The vibe she gives off is that of a drill Sargent. Her attitude was certainly not what I expect of any employee in any store where I shop. I hope she improves her personality and the way she interacts with customers. Better yet, bring the other manager back. She was a ray of sunshine every time you went in. This one could take a few...

Def prefer over tj max or Ross, racks and racks of different style clothing\items, all sizes, they have shoes housewear kids toys furniture home decor food/snacks electronics like phone chargers etc good quality jewelry affordable makeup (I just use their sponges), perfect for seasonal decor, they also have sheets comforters pillows frames mirrors lingerie nurse scrubs. Mostly name brand - I’ve found a bunch of tanks I’ve seen before at target for 1/3 of the price. Candles. Pillows etc. only downfall is not all name brand stuff is discounted such as : carharrt, Nike, adidas, etc. HOWEVER - if you are thorough like me you can find some excellent hidden gems (name brand) on the clearance racks 😉 also, staff tends to follow you around which can be a little annoying, they apparently been having shop-lifting issues. All in all, great place to try on new styles and last summer I bought about 7 dresses from there, complimented on each one 😋 most staff is helpful and friendly, I haven’t seen a single employee stop and ask me if I needed help finding anything or pass by and saying a simple hello. But small potatoes. Highly recommend. Can’t beat the prices (sale prices could be lower -and the styles. The beauty of this store is you can find a top you really like and then next thing you gotta do is hunt down some pants. RARELY (guesstimating less than a handful of times) searched a little more got the perfect pair of bottoms to match. This store has yet to disappoint me. PS : they have the cutest cover-us for summer to wear over your bathing suit or whatever ur heart desires ❤️

Gabe's is pretty ok. It is a bargain place, that has a variety of goods such as clothing for the whole family, bedding, kitchen/cookware, shoes, travel bags/carryon, etc. They also have a small section of pet supplies, furniture, electronics, and toys. Now when I shop here I come for the kitchen supplies you can really get the same quality in that area as you would with an expensive retail shop like Williams Sonoma but only if you really look. Now once in awhile I'll pick a few clothing out for the kids, but my suggestion with clothing is to go one size bigger, because this is a bargain shoppe some clothing items can be slightly irregular. Also lookout for the excessive and unnecessary amounts of sewn together tags I guess that's what you would call them? Either way this is a pain when your ready to remove tags from clothing items just to find out you still have to remove the thread in the clothing items to separate. I guess they think it looks more neat with items such as underwear not to flex more when it comes down to the packaging process. I honestly don't know I just wish they would stop with that! Gabe's is "one of those stores if you see it now, buy it now cause chances are it won't be there again"! Also Gabe's has a rewards card that can be helpful in savings! Just put your phone number in and your email and they'll send you discounts you can use during checkout! But Gabe's is a place I would highly recommend especially for the swift buyer.
