Abbadabba’s East Cobb

I have driven past this store a thousand times are have never stopped in. The sales lady was friendly and recommended several brands.
I will definitely stop by again when I need comfy shoes.

Stopped by this store so that my boyfriend could pick up a new pair of Vibrams Five Fingers for the Peachtree Road Race and we had a quick and easy visit! The store itself is located next to one of my favorite tapas restaurants, Red Sky Tapas. As we walked in, we were greeted by two store clerks and since we knew exactly what we wanted, one of the clerks was able to assist us quickly and efficiently. They have a handful of great designs for men so if you’re looking for Vibrams, this is the store you want to check out. Unfortunately, the Big Peach Running Co. does not carry this brand so we were referred to this store.
It’s a cozy store. Well stocked and the all shoes and accessories were displayed nicely. The entire visit was probably about 15 minutes or less. We both appreciated the fact that they were quick to find the shoe styles and sizes we were looking for which made our visit painless. They had all types of shoes for men, women and children but since we visited for one particular brand/​style, I am unable to account for the other merchandise in the store. I can vouch for the cleanliness and well organized layout. Great customer service and I’m sure we will return again if «the Vibrams» need to be replaced.

Had a family meeting in Marietta and got to town a little early. Needed some shoes so I uses Unilocal.Wonderful selection and very friendly staff. Next time I’ll make trip just for
shoes.

Came here for a specific type of shoe for my son. They had it in stock, although they did not have his exact size, so we just bought the size up. The shoe brand, keen, looks brand new and was well worth the price we paid for it! I wish they had more in stock, but I understand the difficulty of inventory management!

When in doubt, go to Abadabbas… Follow the advice the amazingly and friendly staff gives you. Spend the money on your feet, and then be amazed at how happy you are and how super your whole self feels with these new, stylish, and let’s face it cute shoes you just bought. I am a waitress and learned years ago (at Abadabbas in L5P) the value of spending money on my feet. This locally owned and well managed group of stores still has lay-​away and works with their customers so that even the tightest budget can get their ‘feet’ on great shoes.
If you are not familiar with this group of stores, let me reassure you, don’t be put off by the somewhat «colorful» appearance of the staff. These are knowledgeable, caring, well rounded folks that may be in a punk band on the side! But, who cares? I have been given stupendous service and even steered away from pricier items when they weren’t truly the best for me. As you can tell, I adore this store and take every opportunity to swing by (heck my 70 yr old mother is so pleased with the treatment she gets that she won’t purchase shoes anywhere else… she says she doesn’t trust «non rock n roll» shoe people!!!)
Bottom line, go soon, shop there, leave happy and tell all your friends… great service and quality products are right here, in Marietta no less!!!

I have never considered myself to be a typical woman — I don’t need thousands of pairs of shoes in my closet. In fact, I hate shopping for shoes. I prefer to be barefoot most of the time (just ask my friends). But when I need shoes, especially the casual variety, I hit up Abbadabbas.
This was my first time shopping at this location and it was a pleasure. The place is the largest of their stores and the staff was so friendly (but not nosey or obnoxious). I browsed and found the two pairs of shoes I liked and the young women (I forgot to get her name) was quick to ask the right questions and go get my sizes. She was unable to find one pair in my size, but found comparable styles that I might like (and also similar in price) for me to try.
Huzzah — I liked both alternate pair she picked out, so suddenly I had a conundrum — which to choose.
I walked the store in the shoes to make sure they were a good fit, while we made small talk and discussed the party I was going to later in the day (and which of the new shoes would be most fitting to wear) and by the end of it I had two new pairs of shoes for $ 150 and was a happy camper.
I highly recommend these guys for any Toms, Birkenstocks, Uggs, Crocs, Dr. Martens, etc. They know these brands so well — they will find you the right, style, fit, etc. And they have amazing customer service! Also, a quick in and out (as long as YOU know what you want!)

Cannot say enough great things about the customer service in this store. We (my daughter and I) had to ask our salesman for his biz card because we knew we were going to write about him. You must ask for Sean Mackinder when you go. This man knows his inventory like the back of his hand. He was super fast, friendly, knew exactly what we wanted, even brought out other options «just in case», made us laugh a few times with his wonderful personality, had a quick answer for every question and made our shopping experience fun and quite productive. Sean is a true «people-​person» working in just the right environment. While we tried on (many, many!) shoes, he was even fast enough to help other customers in between us without making us feel abandoned for even a moment. He allowed us to walk around and look without being «pushy». We were there for 3 hours! — but it went by so fast. We had no hesitation dropping over $ 1,500.00 in there and we only came in to buy one pair of athletic shoes — came out with 9 pairs of shoes/​boots/​sandals because the experience was so fun for us. He even offered to ship them for free since we were only there visiting; even emailed us our tracking numbers from UPS. Thank you, thank you, thank you for helping make this the most fun mother-​daughter shopping experience. When we are back in the area this is the ONLY shoe store we will visit. Also this store has such a great selection of the most comfortable shoes. Grateful for the best customer service ever — Beth & Melissa.
