Freighthouse Square is the most unique shopping experience I've ever had! The building is shaped like a long, long freight train, and that's the motif the designers went with on the inside. Adorable, unique little shops line both sides of the long, long hallway, with 1800's train decor prominent everywhere. The effect is completely unique, although I suppose that technically it could be called a 'mall' of sorts since it is all indoor shopping.
Most of the little shops are gift shops, although there are a fair number of restaurants as well. In the basement, reached by a long flight of steps, are an antique shop and other areas.
It's entirely possible to spend an entire day just wandering and browsing the shops, especially at Christmas! Much more fun than the regular Mall.

I have had my computer serviced here by these guys twice. Only because I'm too cheap to part with my old workhorse Sony laptop that's 5 years old! Oh well - I know I need a new comp but being technologically-challenged, I am too confused as to what to buy. These guys knew of the product-specific issues with my Vaio and knew exactly how to fix it, which was really nice. I'm glad they didn't have to guess. The rates were very reasonable and they didn't try to charge me extra for anything. I paid a low, fair price for my repairs and I would not hesitate to go back to these guys. They knew what they were doing and they did it right, in no time flat.

I recently moved to the Tacoma area from a small town in Maine (Wayne!) and was used to the whole idea of the small town pharmacy where people know your name. Coming over to the West coast I didn't expect anything close to my old pharmacy but was surprised when I walked into this diamond in the rough right on S. 38th St. in Tacoma.
The service was the best which can only be the attributed to the expertise of the staff and pharmacists who helped me. Not only was the pharmacist I spoke to knowledgeable but he had my prescriptions ready in about 10 minutes! None of the big chains I had previously been to before can compare to this pharmacy and its helpful staff. This pharmacy was also able to order items for me that most other places do not carry.
P.S. They also had a person on staff to make compounds for my dog and free delivery to boot!

The company I work for goes through this printing company for all our cards and letterhead. The owner, Dennis Mullens, is such a nice man. And his products are very high quality. He delivers his products in person which is nice because you get to put a name with a voice.

I am sooooooo glad I found these folks! They are the BEST and most honest mechanics I have ever found. Really NICE guys. Whenever I've had car issues or just needed to get it maintenanced, they have always been so nice and upbeat, always gotten me in readily and communicated the whole way. I've never had my van up there longer than one day.
They worked on my partner's Camaro too, from when he had it sitting in Army storage for a year. They love old muscle cars :). They have always come in under estimate, have given me the highest quality parts and done the best service that any of my cars has ever had.
I have a very weird minivan (Toyota Previa) that every mechanic runs away from when I pull in. Even Toyota dealers grumble at the site of my van. Not these guys! They had no fear! My engine is under my seat and everything is configured backwards and upside down (good old Japanese engineering, it looks funny, it's hard to work on, but it runs so efficiently this way).
When one of the parts they used was defective, they instantly replaced it with a hearty apology, and of course for free. They are always accomodating to me as a single mother with 3 kiddos - they work on my car first since they know that it's my only source of transport.
They really support the "little guy" here, and this father/son team of expert mechanics will ALWAYS get my business. These are the type of guys who are happily contented to tinker and toil on parts and cars for kicks. They KNOW what they are doing! They are "old school" friendly, polite, professional and do business the way it used to be done, honestly, no gimmicks, word-of-mouth advertising, and with a handshake and trust.
I like that these gentlemen treat me like a lady too, not some wallet overflowing with cash. Gotta respect that.

I rarely order pizza, maybe thrice per year. These guys are fast, friendly, accurate, and it always tastes good. I've always gotten my za delivered way before the 45 minute window.

If you are ever able to go to Tacoma, JM's Detail is a good place to go. Most of their clientele are the car dealerships around their location and in Puyallup, so I'm sure you'll agree that their business must be good enough for them! Five stars :)
