This is a nice store with average/over priced jeans in my opinion. The staff is just there and not really killing you with kindness. Good selection of jeans and some options for accesories and tops.

At first, I thought I thought I was scoring big with a cool-looking, convenient jeans bar in my neighborhood. They definitely have an interesting visual display and a great selection. Then, I purchased something there and it all went downhill. I purchased a pair of jeans - as a side note- when i check-out out, a sign read 20% off "apparel" which made me believe the jeans were on sale as jeans are apparel. Come to find out, the bright young things at the BJB do not consider jeans "apparel" even though the definition of apparel literally is 'clothing." But I digress. I brought my jeans home, wore my jeans for a few hours and they bagged out very unflatteringly. The same day, I brought them back for an exchange of a smaller size. They would not exchange, but told me I could email the buyer and see what I could do. After not hearing back from the buyer, I emailed J Brand jeans directly. They wrote me back within minutes saying to send them the jeans and they would send me the correct size- all while apologizing profusely for the bad customer service I received. Then, I received a reply from the buyer from BJB saying that they would do it this once...so I took the jeans back that afternoon and was told that I had to show proof- they literally didn't believe me that I had approval for an exchange. I showed them the email on my blackberry, and then the manager begrudgingly looked for the correct size. Then she looked at me, I swear with a smirk, and told me they did not have my size..and that they could call me "if they ever got in a new shipment of this particular pair..." I asked her to place a special order for the jeans and was told "we don't special order." I will never shop there again and stress that anyone who enjoys good customer service shouldn't either.

So, I agree with the other reviews about ambiance of store, uniqueness of concept (its super fun to order jeans at a bar!) and helpfulness of the staff. There are however a few drawbacks to be aware of

1) they are frequently out of popular styles/sizes. While they do create a waitlist, it kills the whole instant gratification thing.

2) Their prices are defintely higher than most department stores. You can argue that the service is worth it, though

All in all, a great retail concept that I will continue to visit.

PROS: selection, fun factor
CONS:

This place is one of a kind. Great selection of merchandise and experienced, friendly staff. They have happy hours on Fridays, all the jeans are 10% off while you sip on beer and wine. Another good perk is a frequent buyer card- after you buy 5 pairs of jeans the 6th pair is free. I go to the Jean Bar every time I need a new pair, and I rarely leave without a purchase.

This place is hot or miss - both in terms of service and selection. Service - the associates here are YOUNG. Sometimes they're very attentive and helpful and they can give honest opinions about how jeans look which is so so so rare and which I LOVE. Sometimes they act like they couldn't care less if your hair was on fire (this past Sunday a salesgirl would not get off a personal call to answer my question - what?? what??) Selection: Sometimes the stuff is too embroidered/expensive or trendy ... bordering on just plain silly. Like Taylor below says, call ahead to make sure they have something you'll be interested in before searching for parking. For ex, I like Blue Cult and they almost NEVER have anything in my size.
