Reviews of GO Outdoors

A. S.

Always able to buy something here. Great variety of products with a good stock holding. Prices stated are not always how they appear in store so double check before going to the checkout! Why would anyone stock heavy duty batteries upstairs though is beyond me! Having to carry one down with the poor plastic handles they come with is quite a task. Surely it would make sense to have heavy items downstairs? That's my only niggle! Other than that, a great store with friendly staff!

J.

Yet again excellent service from Go Outdoors Milton Keynes Patriot Drive. I dropped my bike off for it's 6 weeks inspection to adjust brakes and gears. Lee arranged everything. I was very impressed with the fast turnaround time and the excellent quality of service provided. Lee also contacted me to inform me as to what work had been carried out and to let me know it was ready for collection. I can highly recommend Go Outdoors Milton Keynes Patriot Drive for all bicycle requirements.

J. S.

We went for caravan items. They have a good range of accessories. We got what we needed and more. Great folding chairs that are super comfy and an amazing discounted price with their loyalty card

p. J.

Very knowledgeable member of staff JAMES showed immense patience and courtiousness when I needed assistance solving a cooling issue for 'caravaning'! Even when an issue arose at checkout with a price.. He rescued the situation because he already knew the facts.. 👏🏽 Having employed many staff over the years.. I would wish to poach him for my own staff if I was still in business! Look after this 1 managers!!

d. b.

Lynn at the Milton Keynes branch was the most helpful and charming sales assistant I think I’ve ever come across A true 5 star customer experience Thank you for you help. In What was a very small purchase Thank you

G. W.

Served quickly. The assistants are friendly and polite. The products are reasonablly priced and high quality.

J. M.

Good store. Great selection. And nice to go to a fishing shop that's NOT angling direct. The fishing Republic store in here has a bit for all types of fishing.

I. K.

Haven't been here for couple years, nice selection but, bit of my fault I didn't realise the price on the item was discount card, had to pay £5 for the discount and only last 1 year, not a great way of getting me to come back, if i had known about this then I would not have shopped here and gone to sports direct

A. C.

Covers a wide range of outdoor pursuits. Reasonable range but no area in great depth. Overall a good shop and I like shopping there

R. E.

It was more or less empty when I was there it's got loads of stuff on sale no one was available in the fishing area which was a pain so they had to get the shop manager to serve me he done his best bless him will go back another day perhaps

M. B.

Always a nice visit, fantastic prices, great stock. Got everything I needed.

S. L.

Visited Miltonkeynes store today for camping gear, very good service with pleasant staff as always. A big thank you to Lynn & Adam for resolving the bar code issue on my goods.

D. B.

Excellent store freindly helpful staff great prices

G. N.

A fairly good selection, certainly one of the best for outdoor activities all in one place. Good prices and fantastic customer service, I've always had more help from GO than other, similar stores. It's super close to 5 stars for me but I was just a little disappointed with the more limited range of ultralight tents. They have a really nice range of family camping gear and some reasonably lightweight tents but a little more limited than expected on the one and two person ultralights. Still my go to store, even if it is well out of my way.

T.

Friendly people, good prices and variety of products

C.

Unable to get my size so had to order online. So much for going to shop. But very helpful. Had to ring to get directions + they directed me over phone until i could see shop. Otherwise would have been lower stars

M. W.

I went to GO outdoors to get myself a E-bike and the customer service was fantastic friendly and helpful. I had to return to the store as I had a problem with the bike I chose. Reece the staff member I was dealing with went above and beyond to help resolve the problem and provide the best customer service I've had in a long time GO outdoors and there staff are well deserving of the five starts I've given them. keep up the good work I will be recommending you to anyone after a bike

m. c.

Free parking with plenty of spaces. Good selection of tents on display. Have fishing section. Some stock is low but sign of the times. A large store with good selection. Staff are helpful.

D. J.

Great service and products in store. Main issue was ordered base layer online to collect in store - I chased it up but no feedback from customer service at all. Then I get an email to ask me to a review and the link for the review doesn't work. That aspect of my experience is very, very sloppy. As I said the Milton Keynes store and customer service in-store is brilliant.

M. B.

Nice and clean the staff were very helpful and professional

I. C.

Always a good shop here. Staff are helpful and friendly, prices are good especially as I get extra discount with my Defense discount card

H. M.

This store is fantastic and what a pleasure to shop at! I decided to shop here for my hiking gear and camping goods and was super happy with the service that I have received from the store. The young man with beard and long hair, I believe called Tom helped me find the perfect sleeping bag for our outdoors adventure when I wasn't entirely sure what was best suited. He was polite and showed a genuine interested in making sure we picked the correct one we needed, answering all our long winded amateur questions. He advised us about their £5 discount card which made us have a fantastic knock down price on our purchase. I completely recommend to get one and we will be making good use of the card going forward. What a deal!

A. P.

I have shopped here forever and the service has always been friendly, helpful and fast! They had my order from click and collect ready even thought he system had gone down overnight, fantastic! See you again soon I'm sure 😀

J. P.

Very good selection of stock. Good prices when the go outdoors card is used (£5 per year) but quite competitive anyway; good staff.

J. H.

I wanted to buy walking shoes for myself and my son. The staff member Amanda was very patient with my son (learning disability), taking time with both him and myself, to make sure what we bought was right. Thank you.

C. 7.

Excellent service. Molly was most helpful.

L. W.

Good selection on display and cheap prices .

D. J.

Great customer service very helpful, good value ski clothing

B. R.

Tbh on paper the store looks inspiring but when we arrived, massively disappointing:( A store like this should inspire customers as soon as you walk through the doors, My children was very excited about the thought of goin outdoors camping, but my self included felt massively deflated after visiting the Milton Keynes store, It more like a cash and carry image inside rather than an inspirational and inspiring place to shop. Kind regards Ben

A. A.

Lots of sales and good range of children clothes, the camping tends are upstairs with all the cooking accessories. The shop was busy but social distancing was good was good too.

S. G.

Stock levels are hit and miss. Staff can be very difficult to deal with. If you know what you want and have a card it's hard to beat

S. T.

Great value, 2 Rab t shirts, 2 Berghause fleece, 2 pairs of Bridgedale walking socks for a grand total of £106. Always my first port of call when new walking gear is required.

A. S.

Great place. Spoilt for choice. Saved half price on my new tent. Good that you can see all the tents assembled.

D. H.

Regrettably there seems to be a shortage of 6kg calor propane gas cylinders as not only did Go Outdoors have any but neither did 5 other local suppliers. However they did have everything else I needed to restock the caravan foot our next trip.

A. C.

Very honest about the bikes. Told me not to get a e-bike as they are not good enough for the price as the battery will not last

B. T.

Nice place with plenty of choice for outdoors activities. With the discount card you also get very good prices as well.

C. S.

Easy to park, store wasn't too busy, but absolutely packed with so many different types of tents and plenty of camping equipment as well as clothing, fishing and equestrian equipment and accessories.

K. C.

Got my dream bike from there with a decent price. Also great hiking equipment.

J. H.

Got exactly what we wanted. A bit if TLC needed upstairs with Sims - wrong items on wrong shelves and lots of label & prices missing - bit disappointing and that's not on a busy weekend. Other than that thank you daughter happy with sleeping bag at great price too

R. G.

Visited this shop after two previous attempts at other stores to purchase a bike. The other stores had been disinterested and unhelpful, but here we were greeted in a friendly fashion and time was spent with us making sure I was getting the right bike and that it was a good fit etc. Pricing competitive too.

D. B.

Very well stocked, tidy, and helpful staff

A. B.

Always worth a visit if you are in to outdoor activities. Over the years their product range and quality have greatly improved and pricing gives outstanding VFM

M. W.

Lovely to look around at all the camping bits, purchased a small tent to use when away in our motorhome. Fantastic prices.

K. H.

Fab shop, great selection, I went to buy a backpack and didn't really have a clue. Cara was fantastic she knew exactly what she was talking about and spent a considerable amount of time going through the different type of rucksacks, I decided on the Osprey and she fixed it up and adjusted it to me. Really recommend, they were not pushy just super friendly. If you are looking for a backpack then Cara and Sammy are your people at this store :-)

J. P. P.

Great place for all your camping goods. The shop is very large and takes some time to get round. Best to go without the kids if you want some time to check things out. All in all a great shop and helpful staff.

L. H.

So for the past week I have had to walk past a man in his 50’s homeless who is currently pitched up on the side of the redway in the most smallest tent possible. It’s freezing and I couldn’t stop thinking about him out there in these conditions. So decided to go to GO outdoors and get him some Essential items to help him in his time of need. I bought him a new tent, a Mat to sleep on,A new sleeping bag, some mesh tins to eat from, some gas for the stove he already has, and a head torch. As he loves to read and in his situation once it’s dark he no longer can read his books. GO outdoors Milton Keynes have been superstars. I told A member of staff from GO outdoors and he told his manager about the situation and as a lovely gesture of good will they gave me discount to help towards the essential items I was buying for this homeless man. I just want to thank you GO outdoors as u have saved my pennies but have also helped put a smile back on a mans face who is ever so grateful to receive these items. I can’t thank you enough. You have truly helped him out and I have never seen a man so grateful. So from him and me we thank you from the bottom of our hearts. 😊😊

J. H.

What a mess - 9.30am on Saturday 24th August lots of empty shelves and no prices around for items that were on the shelves. SIMS all messed up and all over the place no prices, sleeping bags messy again no prices on what was left on the shelves. I then visited the customer toilet with my daughter what a mess - what a smell toilet roll all over the floor, bin with dirty hand towels full & overflowing onto the floor - i hate to think of the bacteria/germs festering. I spoke to 2 members of staff 1 apologised and the other a young lady with blonde hair was abrupt & raised her voice at me that the cleaner was running late - no one else obviously can clear the rubbish away. No wonder the upstairs was a mess on what i expect is a busy time of year. Would love to have a reply from Go outdoors MK on this unless they are ashamed of their shop

R. T.

Good service and easy to walk around to see good deals. That membership is worth it

c. p.

Recently came to your store with my step son who is travelling across Australia. He was looking for fishing gear. Light wieght camping gear and clothing. One of your shop assistants from your fishing department was most helpful . Thank you Mervyn for your outstanding service. Will definitely come again.

E. S.

Very good collection of outdoor clothing and shoes. I like their price match guarantee. Staff have always been quite enthusiastic and not pushy. They are on Avios points scheme but will get points only for delivery.

C. L.

Fantastic customer service as normal

W. P.

While trying on coats I lost two gold pinky rings. One had a single small diamond the other wider band had three small diamonds. Didn't realise they were missing until I got home - after checking gloves etc I rang the store. I spoke to Amanda. Explained and left my details. Had a message today. She had found the first ring. Thank you so much to everyone concerned. Would certainly give 10 stars given the option. Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. Regards Wendy Pickard A very satisfied customer p.s. I did buy a coat. 😇

K. L.

Cannot recommend the Go Cycling team at Milton Keynes enough, extremely knowledgable, all keen cyclists, they really know their stuff and are always happy to help out. Fantastic customer service and they try and do what's right for you rather than just trying to make a sale. Brilliant place, 10/10, definitely don't go to Halfords.

N. C.

Great Covid precautions. Can't browse and member of staff takes you to product area for item your looking for. Good advice and friendly helpful service. Weldone

M. D.

G. W.

Great place to shop, all restrictions in place. Friendly & helpful staff. Don't forget your discount card.

M. S.

Good service all very helpful, a bit expensive but the boots I brought are great.

J. B.

Large store plenty of stuff at good prices. Staff were friendly but no advice or help offered.

I.

Really nice shop with lots of great stuff but some of the staff members seemed to be kind of ignorant. The stars are for the products.

R.

The staff was nice and helpful, however the prices are quite high, you can get it cheaper if you have a discount card (they are £5)

K. D.

Great prices and staff are always helpful and friendly 👍

M. G.

Having spent a fortune in here in recent months and among items I bought were a pair of walking shoes, these failed after 11 months so I took them back and the guy's sorted it out and refunded no problem, the only negative was that I bought another pair of boots a different make all together but on arrival back home I opened the box and realised that I was given 2x left feet , I guess this could be put down to myself not actually checking the contents in the shop but I would also say it was the guy's fault too, I returned the next day to sort it out but wasn't exactly offered any kind of apology for the inconvenience of travelling 20 odd miles to do this, lesson learned.... check everything lol.

P. W.

Excellent, Staff very helpful and a joy to shop there.

A. A.

Staff were friendly and helpful. Following social distancing procedures, felt very safe when shopping here

A. M.

Absolutely get a discount card! Staff are very helpful. Lots of choice for all your outdoor needs.

C. C.

Discount card is well worth the enrollment, either way huge choice and it's cheap, also don't be afraid to ask about ex demo or unpackaged items, they will do a deal

A. W.

Good size store, with great range of products covering clothing, fishing, cycling, walking, riding camping etc. Staff helpful, and well set up for dealing with the current covid restrictions.

K. H.

I returned to UK after successfully completing a solo 3000 km trek across deserts and mountains in Iran. I purchased most of my gear from GOMK store and I'd like to thank the staff, who were very knowledgeable and patient in assisting me identify my requirements. :)

Can't praise Go-outdoors enough ....problems with my Osprey ruck sack purchased from Go-outdoors was treated abrupt and uncaring by Osprey but 1st day of Go-outdoors trading in their new premises I came away with a no quibble cash refund. Will be returning to Go-outdoors MK again in the future but not to purchase any overated, over priced Osprey products.
