Always find something to wear there
I finally found pants and shorts that fit a large short woman. Now for the tops.
Good selection, great sales, helpful staff. They have plus size clothes that actually look good on a person. Yay!

Great staff!!! Extremely friendly and helpful. Good quality clothing.
great service . A clean we'll run store
Fantastic service and lots of choices
(Translated) I love this shop????????????. The times that I have been there, I have not had any disappointments☺️. There is something for everyone and even for teenagers and young women. Compare to big box stores that only have clothes with big flowers???? ... see if young people or even like me, we have to wear this kind of pattern because we are overweight ????. I was able to dress my 21 year old daughter for fall for a low price???? because they (Pennington) have wonderful discounts anytime. (Original) J'adore cette boutique????????????. Les fois que je suis allée, je n'ai pas eu de déceptions☺️. Il y en a pour tout les goûts et même pour les ados-jeunes femmes. Comparer aux magasins grandes surfaces qui ont que des vêtements à grosses fleurs????...voir si les jeunes ou même comme moi, on doit porter ce genre de motifs parce qu'on est en surpoids ????. J'ai pu habiller ma jeune fille de 21 ans pour l'automne à bas prix???? parce qu'ils (Pennington) ont de magnifiques rabais en tout temps ????????????.
Great selection, good sales, helpful staff!
Lovely clothes
Good seasonal selections
Very pleasant and helpful ☺
Always Great & Friendly staff. Sales are great at times too!

Posting for my wife... I was approached immediately by a grumpy person, when I told her I was looking for runners for work, she rolled her eyes and huffed, ushering me towards the shoes, I asked a few questions, “is this all that’s available and are these all wide shoes“ with so little options, I asked for my size for a couple of shoes styles, only to have the shoes handed back to me and told that is your size, so I tried on a shoe of each style. Making the decision between two shoes, asked for the other shoe to purchase….. before she left for the back to get the other shoe, I stated I’ll just look at what’s on sale. She very loudly said there is nothing on sale, as I looked at the sales rack. Guess I’m leaving, as I waited for my only purchase at the sales counter… waiting was also exciting as another two sales associate approached me to see what I wanted …. Just waiting for grumpy I replied, must have gotten lost on the way to the bathroom. Yes. That’s right I am furious about the treatment at this store I’m losing my cool….. wait it gets better…… grumpy came back and asked for my email address, usually I give my phone number for membership at this store, but no a rude "I asked for your email", I said no, then after I gave her my phone number already, rolling her eyes and said phone number so rudely , I said no just ring it in, but wait there’s more ….. why am I being so rude is what the sales person "grumpy“ had to say…. At this point I just stayed silent….. I will NEVER shop at this store again…. very RUDE, Very entitled Personal….if your having a good day shop else where….. these people only make you cry and feel unworthy of being in "their" store to spend "your" hard earned money….. spend your money elsewhere!
Great customer service!
Always great service when I shop here.
Great value for your items
High quality clothes, friendly staff
Superb service. I consider this the best service of Pennington's locations. Yesterday they had an excellent sale. Got 20 items of which 15 were on sale. Very good quality clothing for unreliable prices. Great job staff.
Big location so there's lots of options if you're doing a casual shopping trip. Staff were very friendly.
Good visit!
I always love going into the store. The ladies are always helpful and make excellent recommendations for me!
I was treated very well and was able to find some underwear that fits. Thank you Penningtons
I have yet to go here and get great service. Mediocre many times, terrible a couple times, great never. I would much rather drive 4 hours to Corner Brook then go here.
Excellent customer service
Great for woman 25 yrs and up! Staff are always friendly but lately the store seems a bit bare. I think there should be more clothes since prince George is lacking plus size selections
It's okay
Staff really friendly
(Translated) Always a very good service! (Original) Toujours un très bon service!
Awesome staff
My first time in that Pennington's and the Manager (I think, Jane) went above and beyond to try and locate this particular bra that I like. It was no where to be found not even as far as Winnipeg! Thanks very much!
The staff in this store are super friendly and the selection of clothing was very good.
Big sales happening right now..70% off on some of their clothing, 30% off their newer items
Very nice staff
Love the clothes but the prices are high
Love the staff and I can always find a little something I love.
Love my trips to Penningtons friendly service and good sales
Came here to look around had sale on 30% off didn’t really see anything much tried on a few things bought a couple of shirts already on sale plus 30% and I had a $10 birthday discount. Staff is very friendly.
Great selection and helpful staff! :)
Staff are helpful and friendly. Clean and easy to shop.
Good customer service good selection of clothes
Informative staff,reasonably priced
Great clearance on boots!
All the ladies have always been great here especially being a younger plus size girl who just wants to fit in and dress like everyone else and not feel like she has to be wearing clothes 3 sizes to big or anything! I’ve gone to places that are plus size and they insist on bigger even though I don’t like it these ladies never have!
Thank you so much Brody for all your help today . you were wonderful ! I haven't worn a bra in years and you helped find one that was a proper fit ! And I must say it feels pretty darn good . I was not looking forward to it at all . I didn't feel embarrassed or uncomfortable . you made a nasty experience into a good one .
Bathing suit expensive and cheaply made
Bought a dress on sale last week. Then it went on sale again. I just brought back my receipt and they gave it to me at the new price! I got a refund of about $13.00! Thanks Penningtons!
I had to go in the first day everything opened after lock down, since weightloss I need new work pants and was unsure of sizing. The fitting room lady was great helped me find the size I needed and even went in the back to find me a second pair. For having to go out on a crazy day the staff was awesome. Yes there was a bit of a line outside because it just opened and the rules but eveyone was great and I have pants!!!
This place is a big girls dream. Clothes that fit AND look nice. Plus the staff are incredibly sweet and considerate. They're more than willing to help in any way they can. The atmosphere is welcoming with larger isles so people with mobility issues can move around easily without worrying about knocking things over. They have, however, seemingly moved the seats that were in the store by the clothing. But there's still a bench by the changing rooms if you need to take a seat. All in all, an amazing place.
(Translated) Good service (Original) Bon service
Great place wonderful staff great service
Friendly staff and you can find just about anything you want. If they don't have the size in the store they will see if they have it on line and if they do they will order and have it sent to your house.
Horrible service, echoing others. I even complained about how they seem to ignore certain people. They even charged me full price when I was eligible for 40% off as an elite member.
Excellent! Very helpful lady. Great service. Happy with the selections that she and I made! ????
Nice clothes
Very helpful employees at this location
Clearance is always a good selection
Great fashion and good sales. The staff is always ready to help when you need it.
Super helpful staff... Took care of my needs to the fullest...
Very helpful staff.
Very good service, just not enough younger looking clothing of my type.
Very nice people there. I look like a deer in head lights in there... but i was informed about the sale had and offered assistance. No complaints here and i was able to gather some gifts!
I'm giving 5 stars because the customer service is excellent and the store has made a real effort to allow for social distancing. However, some of the customers have zero respect for these efforts. Today there was a woman in line ahead of me constantly stepping back into my space. While waiting she kept trying different berets in her hair, and she touched almost every set of earrings displayed. Most people were not wearing masks and were not following the floor arrows. I think I will start making my purchases online only.
Good Sales
Before my weight loss, I would shop here because of the fashionable clothes that hide a multitude of sins.
I love buying my pants, shorts, swimsuits and jackets from Penningtons.
Well organized and very helpful staff
The Chatham Manager and staff are always helpful and supportive.
Great sales people and prices are reasonable and quality is wonderful
Always friendly and helpful. One of my wifes favorite stores.
Checked on here and said they opened at 9:00am on Sunday. Drove all the way there and was there at 9:40am and they were not open and no answer on the phone. Not happy.
Clean, well stocked and staff are always super helpful
Okay. Ive been trying to buy black shorts for a while now and tried Reitmans and Ricki's next door with no luck. Depending on the brand I might be a large or slightly bigger. So I went into this store to see what sizes they had. Someone came to see me at the front and I was given a once over. Awkward. I asked about their smallest size as they said XL. Okay. I probably won't fit an XL so I said thanks and turned to leave. Then they say: This is a plus sized store. Go somewhere else. I'm sorry but the way it was said made me feel so unwelcome. I can't recommend here.

Great customer service
The staffs at The Pennington on Boul.Greber the most friendly staff ever. There treat you are family. And the price were reasonable.????????????
So helpful. All the staff were friendly and helpful. The place is clean and very well organized. Beautiful, intelligent women making things happen!
If only all sales clothes were displayed by sizes it would help....
Friendly staff, good sale items
The staff is great and very helpful. I love the selection and the prices of the items in the store.
Friendly staff
(Translated) I have been with my grandmother and the service was exceptional! (Original) J'ai été avec ma grand mère et le service était exceptionnel !
Nice place to buy some dress as gifts for your moms or girlfriends...
Honestly best experience ever the staff was so sweet and extremely helpful thank you all so much for a wonderful experience and helping me find my items look forward to shopping there again ????
Absolutely horrible experience. I spent almost 2 hours and $350 in this store and not once did I even get acknowledged by the staff. No greeting when I came in, no assistance finding anything, and no offer to get a fitting room started for me even though I was carrying around an armload of clothing. I ended up walking into a random open change room with probably about 15 items and still wasn't acknowledged or asked if I needed any help or if I was finding things okay (which I wasn't and could of really used a hand). Eventually I gave up, grabbed the items I had and headed to the counter where one of the staff members was standing around talking. I then proceeded to stand there waiting for several more minutes without any kind of acknowledgement, not even a "one moment" or anything while this staff member finished her conversation. I originally decided to visit this store because I was looking to buy a whole new wardrobe for back to school this year (something I haven't done in probably almost 10 years) and my mom told me how great this store was. However, after my experience today I will not be returning to this store nor will I ever recommend it to anyone I know. Rather, I will continue to order my clothing online from Torrid and Cleo (stores in Orchard Park Mall in Kelowna).
I came in like a bat out of hell. 1 day away from my girlfriend's birthday. Admittedly I had done a lot of thinking about what I wanted to get her, but left it to the last minute in classic fashion. When I stepped into Penningtons I was greeted by a friendly staff and they worked with me to look at some options. I ultimately settled on a gift card, but the experience was fantastic and helpful!
Customer appreciation sale today. Like the amalgamation of Addition Elle and Penningtons. Staff was super helpful.
Staff is friendly and helpful and they carry a wide range of sizes from X(14) to 5x. Clothing is good quality and priced about average for what you get. No its not Walmart pricing, but its reasonable.
Great selection and friendly staff
Ladies there are AMAZING ????????
They moved locations and there style has changed
I love this store. It's always clean and the women are so helpful and friendly. Great quality clothes at reasonable prices. Love the sales.I have a fantastic wardrobe for a plus size woman.
(Translated) Good service (Original) Bon service
They were super helpful and I love the clothing
Amazing customer service, beautiful assortment and ample parking.
Clothes fit
Its nice not feeling out of place when shopping for plus size clothing. The staff is helpful and great. Good selection of absolutely everything!
Very helpful my wife enjoyed shopping there .
Weird to go in here and see much of the same items as Additionelle, just 2 stores away. I know they're both owned by the same company but I'm looking for some variety. On the plus side...one of the stores didn't have the pants I wanted in my size but the other store did. Anyway, overall I like Penningtons and this location is clean and well organized.
Wonderful Staff , great knowledge of products and helpful...
Nice size range. Sad that alot of stuff is online and not available in store anymore though.
Super friendly and even got the last dress of a mannequin for me to try on! And it fit :)
Employee was unhelpful. I asked to see all the legging available and was given verbal directions to some leggings that were on the other side of some sort of floating wall? Decided to leave and go else where to find some clothing for myself. Would not reccomend this location.
Leslie provided us with the worst instore experience, she was neither kind nor respectful. All we were doing was shopping , and hoping to spend money. We didn’t because of her.
Great service and great selection
Was not impressed when taking back merchandise for my wife she bought online and I'm asked for her Visa... had to get gift card or run to get her card. Never had this bad of service from this company ever but beware of the return service at this location
(Translated) Great model selection at reasonable prices (Original) Große Model-Auswahl zu günstigen Preisen
Great customer service, very helpful. The selection of clothes could of been a bit better in store as I had a hard time finding items in my size but I was pleasantly surprised when they offered to order these items online in the proper size and have them delivered at my door. This made my life so easy and I appreciated it. The only thing that sucked is that I received one of my items and a piece of the belt was obviously missing. No it was not in the bag lol ... I wonder why they still shipped it to me even if it was obviously damaged and why I still paid the original price on a damaged item?! Now I have to bring it back. Mistakes happen so I won't fuss too much over it. I had an overall good experience and I will be back.
Love this store. Very good selection and service.
Never disappointed and staff friendly and on the ball about everything going on in the store.
Friendly staff. Clothes are too pricey for what you're getting
Azure and her wonderful staff are just simply THEE BEST! always extremely helpful .I can not thank these lovely ladies enough!! love you ladies!
Will not be back to this location. The customer service rep at the front desk was extremely rude. Every Pennington's I've been to has been great. Definitely won't be back to the Belleville location.
My fiance went in here to buy me some me some Christmas gift's while I was shopping in walmart. With 4 employees in the store and 2 other guests (mother and daughter) she had 0 help , surpise surpise, she got the wrong size. I feel awful, i know she could have understood the sizes (xl ,xxl, xxxl) if she had some help. She spent a couple hundred dollars with no attention from any employee. I feel terrible because I know the feeling of alienation she is going through being a (beautiful) plus sized women my whole life. It's not fun having a designated store that caters to plus size ladies that i HAVE to shop at , let alone being alienated because....why ? I can't imagine.
I find this store to have a nice selection of clothing and the staff have always been friendly and helpful.
Always find something.
Wife's loves this store great fashions for "plus sized" ladies that want to look great. From casual to formal dress. Wife loves the staff and there knowledge of product.
Walked in and knew what I wanted. They had one and ordered a second shipped to my home. Looked around and found a couple other things. They were very helpful. I'll be back
Great friendly service.
Always helpful and friendly staff!!
Some good sales there. But the staff was excellent and very helpful. Thank you again ladies
(Translated) Excellent service and the staff are smiling (Original) Excellent services et le personnelles son souriante
Great places. Great employees
This store was made just for me
Ladies in there super nice, had to find a bra and had a laugh. Great service
I went with my Mother to Pennington’s this evening. I have been buying clothes there for years. As one of the store clerks was helping me looking for leggings, the other employee leaned over and opened her purse for my clerk to look in and then opened her bag and moved things around. She asked was that good and my clerk said yes, then she left for the day. I was taken aback. I asked the remaining store clerk “were you just looking to see what she had or were you checking to see if she stole anything?”! She said that it was policy that all employees had to have their bags searched prior to leaving to make sure that they aren’t stealing from the store. What!!??? I was so unhappy hearing this that I called to my mother and told her to stop shopping and we left the store. So...policy is to feel your employees are first thieves? Very disappointed.
not a single staff member took the time to offer assistance, ask what I needed, ask if I found what I was looking for... nothing. there were at least 3 staff and there were maybe 2 customers in the store. service used to be great here. won't be back!
Love this store, I found everyone at this branch super helpful & friendly when I took my gran there for her birthday shop :)
Love the clothes
Love it
best store ever
Not very friendly or eager to help my wife. I had to call at them twice and we were the o ly customers.
The employees make my wife feel amazing.
Prices are high.
(Translated) Beautiful and good products. I bought myself a coat ... not paying too much .. I am very happy .. the saleswomen were nice. (Original) Beau et bon produits. Je me suis acheter un manteau ...pas payer trop cher ..je suis bien contente..les vendeuses étaient gentilles.
Great staff, good selection. I was there for bras on this visit, but I'd love to come back for some clothes sometime.
As a plus sized female, shopping for clothing can be a negative experience and I tend to gravitate to Penningtons because their clothing is well made and comfortable. I have been to the 8th Street location and it was terrible. The service there is horrible and I would always leave empty handed and unhappy because I would refuse to spend money in a store where no one will acknowledge that you are breathing. My good friend informed me about this location and promised me that I would feel good about my purchase. She was right. I walked in and was greeted by a wonderful woman named, Taylor. She was helpful, kind and made my shopping experience extremely fun. I ended up spending quite a lot of money but she informed me of some great in-store promotions and which did help me save some moula. This was the first time I have ever purchased an entire wardrobe at once and I felt great about it. If you are looking the best customer service in Saskatoon, come and see Taylor and Jessie... Those girls will make your day. Thank you for the great experience and I look forward to seeing you all again soon!
I walked around the store 3 times carrying clothes to try on and no one asked if I needed help or to start a room.
Great woman and people, besides the fact there's not a lot of clothing options, colors, or styles available. Most of the clothing are for much older population. In need of color options ans different clothing styles.
My wife's favorite.
The ladies are so helpful at this store!
Very well kept store. Nice layout. Service was great. Very nice quality clothing & decent prices
Excellent customer service! Shout out to Tina for making my experience seamless.
Went here today was told do you have a mask? I was wearing a face shield. She told me it wasn’t good unless you had a mask on. I read it is fine to have a shield. She told me well you can shop as long as you stay back. Well I am older not stupid, having a person like her tell me. Wont be back the clothes are ugly.
the worker said i was too fat to shop here
They carry a nice variety of clothing, and regularly have a large sale area, but it is relatively pricey. There is more variety online, but I find the clothing is usually more of a mature style and less 20-30s style.
Excellent customer service!
Always great service
Great selection and staff for the plus sized woman. Lots of sales and coupons if you join the Pennington's reward program.
(Translated) I like this store, but you have to buy when it's on sale because the clothes are very expensive. (Original) J'aime bien ce magasin, par contre il faut acheter quand c'est en vente car les vêtements sont très chers.
Always helpful staff
Very helpful and friendly
The ladies were very nice and friendly
Friendly staff, very accommodating.
Good customer service
Quality clothes. Regular prices are expensive but look for the sales! Friendly staff.
Great Staff Great Sales
The manger is the best this store has ever had. Always helpful and kind.
Bought a $60 bra from penningtons wore it 3 times and it ripped along the middle . Had it less than a month but because it was worn and washed I cant return it .. what a waste of $60 :( horrible quality and definitely over priced
Helpful staff always pleasant and friendly
(Translated) I don't like the collection this year (Original) Je n'aime pas la collection cette année
(Translated) Very clean (Original) Très propre
Prices a bit high but great merchandice
Service was okay. But now Pennington and Addition-Elle have the same exact cloth for half the store. Not impressed!
Always great. Staff is wonderful. ????
Critically understaffed on this visit and the onsite manager was rushed, her voice clipped and she apologized to the people in line behind me for the delay caused, in part, by my returning some items. This was an uncomfortable visit to what is usually a great location.
(Translated) I left my articles there because the service is terrible. The cashier had a customer who had brought items to pay and decided to continue shopping while the other customer was waiting at the checkout to pay. The other cash registers were closed. She took her time to put the purchases in the bag to pass the time, the time that this lady was finishing her purchases. There were other employees who could have opened a second cash register, but it returned to the floor as if there were more people at the cash register. About 20 minutes to be skipped, I left, leaving my things there. Rotten service with barely 2 or 3 customers inside. I will never go back there, be sure. (Original) J'ai laissé mes articles là car le service est épouvantable. La caissière avait une cliente qui avait apporté des articles pour payer et à décidé de continuer ses achats le temps que l'autre client attendait à la caisse pour payer . Les autres caisses étaient fermées . Elle prenait son temps pour mettre les achats dans le sac pour passer le temps, le temps que cette dame finissait ses achats. Il y avait d'autres employés qui auraient pu ouvrir une deuxième caisse , mais elle est retournée sur le plancher comme s'il y avait plus de gens à la caisse . A près 20 minutes à être ignorée, je suis reparti en laissant mes choses là. Service pourri avec à peine 2 ou 3 clients à l'intérieur. Je ne retournerai jamais là, soyez- en certain.
This is my favorite Penningtons in Edmonton. I go here first always. The ladies are ALWAYS helpful and know the store and merchandise. I've read some of the bad reviews on here and feel the need to educate some of the people who made them. There is a difference between bad customer service and following store policy which has NOTHING to do with the staff. 1. Just because you are told you can't return something not bought in your name is NOT poor customer service...it's policy. 2.No you can't return an item worn. or no tags unless defective....again NOT poor customer service....policy. 3. Bought something 6months ago and want to return it...too late your loss, its on your receipt the time frame for returns. POLICY NOT POOR CUSTOMER SERVICE 4. When you get told something that is POLICY and it's not what you want to hear.....does NOT EQUAL POOR CUSTOMER SERVICE. Poor customer service is not being greeted, not helped, rudely spoken too etc. BTW I have yet to see or experience any of these things at this store from any of this staff. Be kind to them... they put up with a lot and it costs you nothing.
Sarah was a great help!! She is super friendly! Shopping at the Guelph location is a must!! The store is neat and clean and well organized. Great shopping experience!
Pennington closed are a little ecpensive but they are a good qualitie lasting for years to bad there not a store in campbell river
Beautiful plus sized clothes, high quality. A little pricey but the clothes do last.
Expensive. I find the majority of the workers quite rude, especially the one who insists you use their hand sanitizer. She doesn't understand that some people can't do the scent.
Love the clothes and the girls who work here.
The clothing quality is poor, but at least they carry petite pants, unlike other plus size stores.
Wasnt in penningtons so wouldnt know!!!!!
Very friendly
Great selection and friendly staff
Great place, helpful people.
(Translated) Store very clean, warm welcomes always satisfied (Original) Magasin très propres, accueille chaleureux toujours satisfaite
I enjoy going to the west side because the store is usually less crowded and the girls there are great
Great shopping
Wanted to purchase a sweater but was told their system was down. I was asked if they wanted to hold the item for me and I said yes, but it would be a couple of days before I could return. I was then told they wouldn't do that for me. I guess they don't need the sales, even though their sister store had to shutter it's doors? Poor service.
Walked in and told them what I needed. Got it on the second try and was out of the store in minutes. Great staff.
I felt like I was the customer in a "what not to do in customer service" video when I inquired about a specific product in the store. Basically I was pointed to a corner in the store where the items were and was informed by her loud voice that the choices were limited because of an ongoing sale. No greeting, no would I need help, not around for questions I would have had like, when would more of this stock expected or are there other of your stores in the area that may have what I was looking for .. A 'I'm with someone and can come by after" would have worked, didn't even seem like she was with someone. It was a point to the corner and good luck kinda thing.
Great store and the girls were friendly and helpful
Excellent service and personal Assistance with selection of garments, based on past interaction with sales staff.
Great store
Always a pleasure!
Love it!
Bright and pleasant store. Nice staff.
Friendly staff... Sale prices...
The girl was very rude. I have always had a great experience but this time the thin girl made the big girl feel belittled. I'll never go in this store again. I have told all my family and friends about this and we will boycott this location for rude behavior against overweight women. How can someone like this work in this type of store? I'll drive out of town or gladly oder on line.
Good quality and service
Best customer service. Great clothes and perfect for bra shopping
Friendly staff, but the clothes are so expensive! $90 for a shirt? No thanks!
They are awesome!
(Translated) Very good after sales service and very professional thank you (Original) Très bon service après vente et très professionnelle merci
Excellent service great prices
Other than the person in change room who was working her butt off not positive. Leadership needs to step it up
Very good
Super helpful and friendly staff. I found some great deals bit as usual regular priced items are very pricey
Always enjoy shopping at this location. The gals are very helpful, the store is always clean.
Best Pennington's I have ever been too, usually a great selection of styles and sizes, awesome service!
Awesome people and helpful to let me know what is on sale
These ladies who work here are AMAZING & HELPFUL!! Exceptional service!!❤️
Beautiful plus size fashion to dress a woman from the inside out. From bras and panties to boots.
Friendly staff
Super service
Terrible Customer service. My dad came in today to replace a package that was lost as a ship out. Shipper needs Penningtons to create a claim, however we were told today that Penningtons will not create a claim with the shipper and as far as they are concerned once a shipment has left the building they no longer worry about what happens to it. I ship daily with businesses like Canada Post and they will receive the funds back to them to replace the lost package yet they are unwilling to replace or offer a refund. I used to be a loyal customer here, however that will change. This is unacceptable. Do not order anything from this company. If you are going to buy something here buyer beware. Go in person.
Ive been here a few times....never very friendly the staff.
Friendly staff and helpful and very polite
Never found jeans to fit. I like Petite due to short legs.I like Jeggins in petite. Slim leg on me is to wide. Do not want to have it fit in waist and not leg. So please bring back Jeggins. I like the store. Big and airy. The staff on April 11/19 Thursday evening was excellent. She puts the S in SERVICE. Lovely and honest. The only problem was finding a pair of jeans. I ended up going next door to additional and purchasing the pairs of pants. Two pair's of Jeggins and one pair of peddle pushers. Spent over two hundred dollars. Money you could have had if you carried Jeggins. All in all I felt I did well .I got a few nice tee's and I love your new cotton sweaters. Your new store is closer to me. It was displayed nicely. Change rooms are terrific. Thanks to you and your staff member I had an amazing time. Jeggins needed for me in petite sizes. I have a 27 inch inseam. The last thing I want to do is come home and have to shorten my pants. Its out of keeping with my 24 size butt.l
Just stopped in to buy bras. I was so excited!! 2 sales gals in the store and neither would greet or make eye contact. Found my items alone after some searching and the only conversation was at check out and the bare minimum. If I had another option in my city I wouldn't have bought them!
Some options
Excellent service, super friendly staff, good selection
Decent selection and super friendly staff
Great clothes - great service!!
There's nothing in this store. You're better to shop online from their website. More selection and cheaper prices.
Super clean and helpful staff
(Translated) Great service and good price (Original) Excellent service et bon prix
Lots of nice fashionable women's clothing and great prices.
Love Penningtons super helpful and nice staff..only store I buy my clothes at in Courtenay .And such great prices too
Great clothes
Don't shop there
3 staff in, but none of them could have be bothered to ask if I needed assistant I guess their conversation was more important. Left empty handed better service at Walmart
Didn't find anything this time. Maybe next time
Janette the manager of Penningtons Chatham, has so far been the nicest manager i have encountered in all my years of shopping in your stores, there are not enough words to describe the amount of good customer service that she provides. She keeps us updated on promotions which i love, she is always friendly and always has a smile, its employees like that keep me coming to your store. I hope she never quits.
Poor selection
I really like this penningtons location. The staff are friendly and super super helpful. The store is always clean and organized. And whenever I bring my disabled mom to this store with me, I always see them going out of their way to offer extra help since she has mobility issues. It shocks me that people give this store bad reviews. Some people need to learn the difference between breaking store policy and good customer service.
Wonderful service, clean, great selection and affordable. Bought a cute top
Great store Awesome staff
Customer service was very gossipy with one of the clients causing a wait for anyone who needed help or had a purchase
Staff friendly & helpfull , good selection or they can try & get it for you .
Good quality, and Flash sale!!
My experience was very good. It is always very good everytime I visit the store. Staff is very helpful and courteous.
Best service you could ask for
Friendly helpful staff
Disappointing after all these years it is obvious they are shutting down. All leftovers from other stores and altho mark downs are 80% they do not have enough signs so it becomes a guessing game.
Found some great deals in the Clearance section - didn't even look at the new stock!
Lots of great selections. Staff were very helpful and friendly. Was able to get some discounts. Will definitely be my place to shop.
Great Service
I was disappointed in this location. I browsed the entire store and could not find anything I liked in my size not even a bra. Staff did not offer help like they do at other locations.
Amazing variety in plus and plus petite sizes. Awesome sales, too!
Great selection of clothes, and staff are always helpful and knowledgeable
love shopping at Pennington's.
Knowledgeable and helpful people, I love the selections.
Friendly staff lots of selection
I enjoy shopping at penningtons..
My experience was excellent. The staff are wonderful.
It just about has everything you need to wear.
Customer service was good
very disappointed into what i thought was my favourite store. I normally shop there once or twice a month . Went in today to return and exchange a shirt my husband bought me for my birthday and they wouldn’t return the shirt because the online shopping bill was in his name.....honestly “way to treat a 10 year very reliable customer ‘
Anotber great location loved how the staff ran to help find me an outfit. And there was akot of running lol thanks ladies
Love love love staff and clothes
(Translated) Excellent! (Original) Excellent !
Staff are always helpful and kind! Lots of good boxing day sales.
Great service, my daughter always finds clothes she likes
They don't have very much in active wear or many tshirts or pajamas. They seem to have more clothes geared to the career woman which we all are not in that category anymore. I used to spend quite a bit of money in there but not much active wear now so I do not find much for me.
Friendly staff and great selection
(Translated) Good service (Original) Bon service
Awesome selection
Great ppl and nice clothes
The ladies were very helpful and friendly and polite thanks Pennington's
1st time I've had troubles finding my size or style.
Feel great when shopping there..
The service was actually pretty good today ????
Manager helpful friendly and friendly service!
Makes the wife a happy camper
So helpful
Staff was amazing! Helpful, knowledgeable and attentive. Great shopping experience for my Mom.
I've been shopping at Penningtons for decades. The best quality clothing and merchandise/accessories arpund!! The convenience of their online shopping is awesome! I've ordered online a lot. I'm extremely pleased and happy with all I received!! Never returned or exchanged anything, they get it right the first time, all the time!!
(Translated) Nice clothes. Staff not very welcoming. (Original) De beaux vêtements. Personnel pas très avenant.
Staff helped find suitable garments when asked for an item we couldn't find. Like the layout and less frumpy style.
No customer service
My daughter and I absolutely love this location and Leslie! This wonderful lady is the most friendly, helpful and knowledgeable sales lady we have had in a few years. She knows her stuff! Extremely helpful and supersedes all other sales person we have dealt with in a very long time. She went out of her way to make sure we had sizes we needed and made suggestions that made the difference. Amazing service!
Friendly and so helpful! Customer service at its finest!
Sadly as an Additionelle customer I'm not satisfied with this locations set up. The ladies were great and very helpful, they always are. However I spent my lunch hour in the store trying on items which I couldn't buy because they can't access my Additionelle loyalty info as this location is set up as Penningtons. It's my birthday month so they couldn't access my birthday month discount. I will now have to go out of my way to another additionelle to redeem my birthday month discount. There was nothing at all wrong with the service I recieved, the ladies are always very nice and helpful.
Very helpful, welcoming staff. Went shopping for my mother in law, didn't really know where to begin, I sure did appreciate their assistance. Store is tidy, great prices. I'm sure I will return ????
Amazingly helpful staff. I walked in with a general idea of what I fit and quickly found out I was wrong. The lady was super helpful and very patient and found a size that fit based on my "this is too tight but this is too small" comments. She ended up finding what I believe to be the only one of my size in the whole store. It would be nice if there were more color options in the larger size of bra, but amazing staff.
Great service lots of help and found a lot of items for when my pregnancy shows more!
The most friendly staff I've met in a clothing store. Shopping for clothes gives me anxiety and the lady ( with the dark hair ) was absolutely amazing with me even after I felt running out of the store after trying one item . Will be coming back to shop for sure . Thank you ????
Saw some lovely things .
Always friendly and very helpful
(Translated) Very satisfied, good service and very sociable???? (Original) Très satisfaite bon service et très sociable????
I was in there yesterday looking for a swinsswi that I was comfortable in for an upcoming trip. Being plus size and pregnant on top of that made it so hard to find somthisom comfy and cute! I was all over the city looking all day and couldn't find anything that fit me nor did anyone offer me any help but thank god I went here as there was a british lady (I have no idea how I forgot her name) she spent probably about an hour with me showing me different styles running and grabbing me different sizes and then helping me find an accessory for it. She really went above and beyond to help me as I was a ball of stress and feeling defeated from the day. All other staff were amazing too. This is now going to be my go to store for any shopping. Thank you again to the staff for making me feel so much better about my self and helping me as much as you did.
My wife found what she was looking for right away and was very pleased with her items, the service and the prices.
(Translated) I really appreciated the service. Being well served and advising in a linen store is important to me. It was worth the detour. And there is a lot of choice in the laundry. And of good quality. (Original) J ai beaucoup apprécié le service. Être bien servie et conseiller dans une boutique de linge, c est important pour moi. Ça valait le détour. Et il y a beaucoup de choix dans le linge. Et de la belle qualité.
The young ladies there are very helpful for guys like me. They listen well, when I explained my wife's size, and lead me right to what I needed.
Clerk was very friendly and helpful.
The staff is great but the selection sucks. I went in for t-shirts and came out very disappointed. They got rid of their shirt tables, which were my go-to for spring, summer and fall. Even the Active Zone has changed for the worse. I shop here as a plus size woman and have bought many t-shirts and Active Zone items that fit comfortably. Now they've changed them to be more like Lululemon and other overpriced activewear brands that just don't fit most plus sized females. Half the store is Additionelle clothing that fits altogether differently. Guess this gives me more reason to shop Maurices!
Helpful, friendly staff, clothes nicely displayed, clean & tidy.
Horrible customer service. I did not even get a hi when I came in. I had to ask for a room. I had my baby with me. Not once was I asked if I needed help or a different size when in the change room. And when I was done, I stood at the counter while two ladies clicked away on the computer ignoring me. Never again.
Great sale on summer stuff... great time to be shopping for destination travel
Friendly and helpful staff. Pretty clothing! Love their sleepwear.
Awesome store.. Friendly staff
Very helpful.
I TOOK THE WIFE TO PENNINGTONS IN REGINA BECAUES THEIR ARE 3 LOCATION'S THE SERVICE IS GOOD PARKIING GOOG THEY ARE NORTH STRAIGHTUP ALBERT ST AN EAST VICTORIA ST
The workers are helping and knowledgeable. We were in and out, in time with the great help.
I wish the clothes would be a bit more younger looking because l fine some of the clothes is old fashion.
Friendly staff and great collection on size.
Nice staff and the place is easy to find. Lots of parking.
Very good sale on lingerie and good options.
I love love love penningtons. I do all my plus sized clothing shopping there.
My wife is a frequent shopper and I go with her a lot. The staff aren't very friendly or helpful. On our visit today, not one person greeted us, asked if we needed help or even when my wife was trying on clothes she wasn't acknowledged. This hasn't happened just once, but most times we go. My wife was upset as she was looking for something specific and had no assistance. Won't be returning anymore .
Always good. Flattering clothes and people willing to help inspire your choices and bring you clothes to try.
The staff waited on me and brought things to me I was very grateful.
Friendly staff. Nice clothes. Always has sales.
Lady at the counter was excellent. Had no issues with the return.
On November 20 2021 I went in to Penningtons to buy a new bra. I was greeted by a sales associate who immediately told me there was a 40% off sale for them... I was so happy!! Maybe I would get two! She asked what style, and I pointed to the same bra I was wearing. She asked the size and I said I needed one size smaller than what I was wearing. I didn't know the size but told her what I thought it may be. She explained Pennington's doesn't carry a (size smaller). I asked do you mean in this store or at all (meaning online). I then asked her to check my size for me. She did so with clumsy hands then told me she was unable to find the size. She suggested I go to the change room and "find it yourself", so I did. I came out of the change room to find her waiting for me with a tablet looking at their online stock. I then told her my current size and suggested I try either a cup size smaller with the current band size, or the same cup size with a smaller band size. She looked me up and down, head to toe and looked me right in the eye and said "This is a plus sized store". Shocked, I said yes I know. I like this bra I just need a smaller size. I glanced down at the tablet and saw the size I asked for. So this is where I say, I am not a plus sized clothes wearer, but my bra certainly is a plus size. She looked me up and down AGAIN, I bust into tears, returned to the change room to collect my things and headed for the door. I stopped to speak to the manager about her unprofessional behavior. The sales associate stomped over to us and interrupted repeatedly while I voiced my concerns, despite the manager asking her to please wait her turn. The poor manager. Frustrated and in tears, I left. I was horrified! Had the roles been reversed and I was a plus sized person shopping in a regular sized store, would she have behaved the same? I emailed customer service, and called immediately to the customer service line. I spent 8 minutes on the phone including hold time and was assured I would receive a call back. I also received an automated email reply saying someone would reach out to me within 2 days. 2 days later I received an email stating the concern had been escalated to the "District Sales Manager". On November 25, I received an email stating my concern had been resolved. I called and after spending 40 minutes on hold and with a customer service representative, I was assured my file had not been closed. On December 01, I emailed again. Nothing. On December 03, I spent 39 minutes on the phone including hold time only to get NOWHERE. I am absolutely mortified that Penningtons would employ someone with this attitude toward non plus sized people, and extremely disappointed that there was absolutely no follow up from Pennington's. Shame. On. You.
HORRIFYING experience!! I went in to switch sizes on 3 $10 sale tops for my Mom and the cashier went into a rant about the company's fraud policy and how much theft they have and insinuated that my items could be stolen. Why would I steal discount clothes 5x too big for me only to return to the store and exchange for an even larger size?! The whole thing was extremely uncomfortable and I will obviously never shop at this store again.
The girls are very helpful and pleasant
Finally a reaonably priced bra that actually fits!
