we're going fishing 
I came to this place because my coworkers really love this place. Before heading on my camping trip with my son, I came here to pick up a tent since we were going to rough it. They have a great selection and the staff there was patient enough to go through the pros and cons of each tent they had. I ended up choosing the tent that was the fastest to setup. The prices here were above average, but the items they sell were very high quality. I'd come here again.

Dig and you may find 
Tent and Trails actually has good brands for almost any gear you'll need from climbing 'beaners and webbing to jackets for every adventure to backpacks, tents and sleeping bags. The overly cluttered store makes it very difficult to find anything, and the staff is hir or miss in helpfulness. The high turnover does nothing to guarentee knowledgable help or a staff that cares. If you know what exactly you are looking for, they can probably help you find it, but i don't recommed "blind" shopping. Their prices are decent for New York City, though don't wait for sales, they are few and far between.

DOn't wait until you're in the country to get your camping supplies
If your summer plans call for some camping and hiking, check out Tent and Trails and get outfitted before you strike out and have to hunt for stuff in the country. The sales folks here know what you will be encountering, and can outfit you with just the right items. Don't forget to pick up a small first aid kit and the bug repellent items as well. They are reasonable in price, have a great selection, and have most stuff in stock right there

Great selection & customer service
I've gone to Tent & Trails a few times over the years before heading off on outdoor adventures with friends. Along with the great selection, I always receive excellent customer service. The satff is friendly and knowledgable. It's great to have a store like Tent & Trails in NYC!
Pros: Selection, Service

A Great Find!
Not many outdoor/sporting good stores in NYC to choose from. Tent & Trails has a great selection, a knowledgable staff and great prices. I always check them out before I go on my outdoor & camping weekends.
Pros: Selection, staff, prices

Lousy hours & Hit or miss customer service
I have been in the store a few times. Some days the customer service is pretty good and others they're not so good. I had really good customer service when I came in with a bag from a major competitor and had a very good idea of what I wanted and showed that I was serious about hiking. If you are not sure about what you want then you can get really lousy service. Also the hours are lousy. I work and it is very hard for me to get to the store after work or on weekends esp. when you do not live in the area or have other responsibilities.
Pros: Knowledgeable staff, Good variety, Quality equipment
Cons: Lousy hours, Customer service, Inconsideration

Terrible Store
I bought a North Face fully waterproof jacket that in fact leaked water all over the place. Obviously very faulty. The woman at the store told me this was not their responsibility at all and that I had to send it back to North Face. In other words, if they sell you faulty goods, they refuse responsibility. I am absolutely disgusted with this terrible store and their disgusting attitude, and I will never shop there again.

Great selection, prices and customer service
Went here with my husband before heading out on a camping & hiking trip. The staff was very knowledgable and spent a lot of time helping me in the decision process. The selction was very good and the prices were much better than I've seen elsewhere. This place is a keeper!
