We like the products West Marine carries, but the service at this location is lacking.We checked for marine antifreeze online. Website said there were hundreds of gallons at Lodi, NJ store, and if we wanted to buy some there, that we would need to call the store to reserve some. We called there two days prior to our visit there and the clerk said there was no need to reserve the antifreeze because they had plenty.On a Saturday, we arrived to find that we were the only ones there ( besides the clerk and her supervisor). We noticed that the variety of antifreeze was not on the sales floor. We asked the clerk for it and said that the website shows plenty of stock. The clerk went to stockroom and returned to say that she sees the cases of it, but the aisle is to narrow to get to them because they just arrived and were stacked tightly. She suggested that we return home and order them online. We told her that we drove many miles and paid tolls to pick this up. We offered to get the item, if she couldnt reach them. She said we couldnt do that because it was in stockroom.She then said she would ask her supervisor what could be done( she was in the stockroom). The clerk came back and said the supervisor would get the antifreeze for me. After 10 minutes, the clerk returned to tell us that they did not have any and to order it online.So, to recap:First : website says hundreds of gallons are at the store.Second: clerk answering phone confirms they are there.Third: clerk at store confirms they are there, but hard to get.Forth: clerk states supervisor will get them.Fifth: clerk states that the supervisor says store doesnt have them.THIS STORE NEEDS BETTER SERVICING OF PAYING CUSTOMERS.(Note: They referred us to another store that was an additional half hours drive away.)
Just not enough support staff. Inventory items are missing more often than not....may as well just go on the website
In store stock very ify.
Great prices on the largest selection of irons I have seen in a fishing tackle store. Nice selection of tackle bags and boxes. Its always hard for me to leave the place once Im there.Amy is very helpful, awesome store!
They had everything i needed. If they didnt they were very helpful on helping me by ordering. Great staff
A very well equipped and stocked store
Was very knowledgeable
Good
Why do they close before their posted closing time? Drove all the way here, got here by 540 and the placed is closed. Said it closes at 6. Not cool.
The worst experience ever. Employees are clueless.about boats let alone GPS. CAN TELL ME.ANY INFO.ABOUT GPS SEEMS.LIKE THEYVE HIRED THEM STRAIT FROM THE BARN!! ESPECIALLY THE MANAGEMENT. SO UNPROFESSIONAL. WALMART EMPLOYEES HAVE MORE KNOWLEDGE.
Easy in easy out if you know what you need and its not too exotic. You will pay more but it is convenient.
Very very helpful, 2 of the nicest people in there helping me out. Thanks Deb and Nicholas.
Store shelves where empty, needed spark plugs for my outboard. not in stock.
Helpful staff have most of what you need
I have shopped here numerous times over the years and I have to say I am disappointed with ALL the empty shelves not just here at their Lodi location but also in Eatontown NJ .Slim pickings looks like a going out of business sale without the sale or crowds
They guy working in there was very unpleasant. Did not answer the phone. Could not find product we needed and seemed to have an attitude. After we found the product ourselves the employee started to act like he was all buddy buddy with us. Definitely not how other west marines are nor how this one should be.
Nice store. Friendly employees. They always have all my boating needs.
Great place Ive been going over 28 years
First tried to call the store for 2 days and got no answer. Then took 1 hour uber ride because website showed 1 ac pump in stock .When we arrived a grumpy snarky lower than average intelligence man proceeded to complain that hes by himself and cant answer the phone . He said all the kids were lazy and took the week off and theres no manager. He then finally addressed my question and told me that there was no pump and I should go to Woodbridge. Well my son walked down the aisle and saw it on the shelf where it belonged
Awesome Store! They have just about anything you need for your Boat, Kayak! Even shirts, shorts and shoes.
Everyone was nice they were just a little busy cuz of Memorial Day
Good selection of marine parts and products.
Jack was very knowledgeable, and very helpful in me making my decision. Great place to visit
One of the few places to get replacement boat parts, life jackets, and fishing supplies in the area.
Friendly staff nice place for boats and marine activities but barely any fishing stuff at all
Always have my boating needs, Just wish there was a location closer to me. Closed the City Island location than Haverstraw NY,
Excellent Customer Service, Very Knowledgeable 😊👍🏻
💃
All you want for boating and fishing
Good place
Cashier was very helpful
Not too helpful
Great place unhelpful staff I felt
Not too much as far as selection goes...Next to strip club...
Great store
Love this place, for my toys
People at this place know almost nothing about boats
Has everything you need for boating but its very expensive. Staff is friendly as well.
Came here for ball bearing swivels and they helped me out I left with exactly what I needed
Wide selection if boating supplies
Lots of outdoor goodies from fishing to clothing, tools and accessories but on the pricey side.
Well equipped but expensive. Right off route 17 south.
They have what I need
Ok..
