Yelp.com Review - by Ann L.

4.0 of 5 stars. I stopped by on my way to a meeting, and I was pleasantly surprised by Filene's. There is a better selection of clothes than TJ Maxx or Ross but pricier. I bought a dress and two pairs of tights for...

Yelp.com Review - by Amanda C.

2.0 of 5 stars. I'll admit it... after hearing about Filene's Basement for the past year, I became curious. The economy is in the tank, I'm unemployed, and shopping is shopping, right? Not really.There's a central...

Yelp.com Review - by Brenda B.

5.0 of 5 stars. Filene's basement has good prices, although I rarely find anything, but that's mainly because the clothes aren't always my style. This particular location deserves 5 stars though, because they found...

Yelp.com Review - by David H.

5.0 of 5 stars. I love Filene's, this is the original location that got me started. Their prices are great, even if they aren't marked down. They usually have two tiers of clothes. They have the basics like Calvin...

Yelp.com Review - by LOLITA J.

4.0 of 5 stars. I like this Filene's Basement based on the clothes. Its a little crammed at this location, then the way they have the clothes organized is pretty confusing. I love shopping here for my husband, and...

Yelp.com Review - by Cadence R.

3.0 of 5 stars. I hate discount clothes stores. It doesn't really make sense though. I love getting good deals, but there is nothing more frustrating to me then sifting through tons of racks of crap to find the...

Yelp.com Review - by Kristen R.

3.0 of 5 stars. Yes it's A-OK that I found some cute tops and a hat here..love it! But the reason it's only 3 stars and not 5 is because the service was lacking a SMILE. Go upstairs...the guys who rang me up were...

Yelp.com Review - by Reggie G.

3.0 of 5 stars. It's kind of crazy in there but the staff is so nice. I can't deal with the clothes sections but I buy ALL of my tights here. They have an amazing tights section (and socks). I also feed my...

Yelp.com Review - by marsha s.

3.0 of 5 stars. I like Filene's. I like the one in Rockville better than the one in DC. My complaint is that I don't like the way the clothing is organized in DC. I always feel a little confused as to where I'm going...

1.0 of 5 stars. The one star goes for the Filene's on 14th & F. I do not understand how anyone can shop there. It's impossible to find anything.

Yelp.com Review - by Mallory T.

2.0 of 5 stars. I first fell in love with Filene's when on a trip to Boston a few years ago. The stores there are HUGE, the selection amazing. The CT Ave Filene's, in contrast, is pretty small and it's especially...

4.0 of 5 stars. I lost my Filene's virginity today, thanks to Matt. It was magical.I'm ashamed that I didn't discover this gem before. While the service and clutter was what I'd expect out of pretty much any lower...

Yelp.com Review - by Jason C.

2.0 of 5 stars. I was discussing this place with Jim at the Yelp event at Panache, and we agreed that at least you could always find a pair of socks you like here.I don't think the prices are a whole lot lower than a...

Yelp.com Review - by Kathleen M.

2.0 of 5 stars. I am a bargain basement shopper, no lie. When you've got a shopping addiction and a salary like mine, you have to be. But I still can't say that I like Filene's. In fact, I strongly dislike it.Yet I...

4.0 of 5 stars. This was one of my first discoveries after moving to the district freshman year. Probably the cheapest department store in DC. They have something for every style and a great sale rack for bargain...

Yelp.com Review - by Bootsy R.

5.0 of 5 stars. Filene's is a great place to buy silk scarves, and also wool and cashmere sweaters. They never fail to have better quality for the price, and a better color and size selection, than Bloomie's has in...

2.0 of 5 stars. I went on my lunch break on a Friday. Everyone was rude.In the shoe department, there was some sort of manager who seemed like she was doing some quality control in from out of town. She was straight...

4.0 of 5 stars. This is a comparative review, looking at this store and the 14th St location.If you're in DC, definitely come to this Filene's Basement. It's a little bit smaller, but the selection is so much better...

5.0 of 5 stars. I practically live here. Yeah, it's feast or famine -- sometimes the weird, borderline tacky stuff they carry makes me wonder who buys their stock -- but I don't go anywhere else to get my jeans....

2.0 of 5 stars. I think this location is good for men's clothes, which doesn't help me out a lot. I really prefer the downtown location.

3.0 of 5 stars. 3.5 stars.I'm not that fashionable, and due to the nature of my work I have about 3 nice shirts. So I have to thank Filene's for providing some inexpensive, presentable clothes at the last minute for...
