Austin doesnt have many true hardware stores. This is the place for what you need. They saved me from replacing a garage door because I was able to repair the garage door opener connection to the garage door.
Super helpful. In and out with the things I need in five minutes. No wandering the isles at Home Depot
I have been using Breed and Company since 2010. The place is a treasure! They have all kinds of things that are hard to get and things that you readily need. They have everything from high end dinnerware to toilet plungers to succulents and high quality cheeses and truffles. I live close by so I have the extra added advantage of it being walking distance. It’s such a great place I love it. And the people that work there go above and beyond to help you. Can’t say enough good things about this place.
Even if I try I dont think I could find a negative thing about this Ace hardware store an awesome experience.
Went to the store for an item that was marked online as “in stock”. Nopes. Happened twice already. Wasted my time. The guy sitting behind the (un) Helpful Hub didn’t even bother to look in the back to see if the item is in storage.
Have spent a lot of money here over time, bought $150 worth of Christmas lights not realizing they were battery operated (needed plug-in), came back a couple days later to return or at lease get a store credit…Nothing. No credit. No return. I left the lights with the store. Sadly will have to start going to Amazon.
Went to have remote fobs for my car programmed, and have keys cut for the car. The gentleman who helped me was very courteous and efficient. Since I provided the fobs and blank keys, I was only charged for labor. It cost $20.00 plus tax total for 2 fobs and 2 keys. Absolutely great service and value!
This store is a favorite of mine. Half hardware store, half boutique shop, and half kitchen supply store, it is a fun place to peruse! In one half, it is fully equipped with all the hardware essentials, making it a fully functioning hardware store with helpful staff members. In the other half, home decor and kitchen supplies fill the store with cute and tempting buys. Just as good for plumbing repair as it is for holiday gifts. Also sells high-quality Case knives!
Great prices and always clean and stocked. Some of the young cashiers need to work on their customers service with everyone that comes to spend $ here! Treat everyone the same! Everyone especially people of color, our money is also green!The reason Im bringing this up is because a couple of weeks back a young Caucasian female cashier was sweet and polite with a customer ahead of me (also Caucasian) when I came up to pay for my items her smile and politeness just disappeared. No how are you today and thank you.Nothing like that, she asked is this all and handed me change and didnt say anything else! Made me feel like not going there anymore!!!I really hope that they read this and fix it or I will take my money somewhere else!
Breed is where I go when I have questions about anything hardware, construction, or home improvement orientated. They always have what I need, but you have to ask. In addition to being a great full service hardware store, the other half of the building is devoted to high end gifts and gardening.
Very friendly and knowledgeable staff. Inventory of things you wont find elsewhere.
⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐6/5 stars!If you know Breed & Company, a six out of five star rating makes perfect sense. From the welcome greetings and genuine offers to help to the unmatchable selection of...just about anything hardware store and then some(think awesome, hero making gift ideas), nobody comes close. This is where you come for that one missing piece that will complete your current project the way you want, not just what the BigBoxBrosDepot serve up. Breeds is not even more pricey. I went to above-mentioned and a couple Auto parts houses in search of some grade 8 socket head cap screws and only Breeds had what I was looking for. And Im not talking about something that will work, Im talking about exactly what I had in mind and it was cheaper than the big boxes, and I could buy just one if I wanted to, not a package of two, or three so you understand what Im saying:TRADE HERE!
We had a horrible customer service experience like many others have mentioned. The store is great but the customer service is terrible. Ours is specifically with the employee Eduardo. We asked him how his day was at check out and he went on a long talk about how horrible working retail in the holidays is. I was purchasing six mugs that were wrapped up for me and I asked to look at one of the mugs to make sure they were the ones I wanted and he gave me serious attitude. It was a gift and I wanted to make sure it was right. I then wanted to buy a Fir dish soap which he told me was not on holiday discount (I had been in the store 2 days prior and was given the holiday discount on the exact same item without even asking). When we had purchased all of our items we said “when we were here 2 days ago they gave us a student discount...can we use it again?” my husband showed his ID which is for MIT and we were told sorry it’s only for UT students. I have never seen a student discount specific to one school?? He said “I’ll be sure to tell my manager that this does not count”He was just so rude and condescending. It’s unfortunate so many people have issues with the employees because it is a nice store. I have never been treated so poorly by an employee as Eduardo treated us today.
Great convenient location for when you break something in the middle of a project!
I went in to buy paint for a home renovation. I was dealing with Jeff in the paint dept. While chatting with him a bit about different paint options he mentioned that he used to be in the photography world and could see the differences in color. I mentioned that my father was a master cabinet builder and could spot a piece of trim in a room that was a quarter of an inch off. We had a laugh and continued to complete the transaction As simple as that seems, it was a great experience. I lost my father a year ago and by mentioning his sharp attention to detail, Jeff understood the beauty of being meticulous. Jeff was so pleasantand helped me land on exactly the right shade of white. There are thousands of different white options and he nailed it today. Thank you Jeff.
You can walk 2 blocks to get anything in this neighborhood. Food. Clothes. Even a screwdriver.
Party place with first-class help + knowledge of the product
I purchased a wooden picnic table from Breed, and when I unpacked all the parts to put it together, the table wasn’t lined up properly so we’ll have to use a circular saw to even out the ends. Also, the one of the wood seats had a chunk out of it, which I’ll have to fill with wood putty.I don’t have a problem with Breed per se, but I’m disappointed they gave me such a subpar product—perhaps they aren’t aware that this product isn’t manufactured well, they’ll see this and look into other resources.
My favorite spot to stop by to get a wedding gift or a gift, just because.
I love this place. its like a boutique hardware/general store with anything you could want. The folks who work here are so friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. I especially love coming here for seasonal items like grill accessories and holiday decorations.
I love this store so much. Superb products and great customer service.
Breed & Company is great! I get all my Traeger accessories and pellets from them. They are always stocked, and if not you can order online via Ace and curbside or delivery is available. Awesome place for tools and home improvement projects!Awesome staff!
They got a lot of stuff and you dont have to go all the way to home depot to get it
For decades, Breed & Co has been my go-to place for quality merchandise and solid advice. Today, though, I see we’ve gone to a store full of nervous youngsters continually speaking furtively into their tiny black walkies as they rush by, ignoring customers. What are they talking about, and why is it all so urgent? Is an Apple Store Breed’s new model? Hardware to these clerks is over-priced chocolates and crystal vases (pronounced vozzes). None of them would know the difference between a rain gauge and coffee filters, neither of which were in stock. New management, please.
Best. Hardware Store. Ever! I love this place. When you enter, the left is the hardware, and right is home goods. I can bring my sweetheart here, and she can go right, Ill go left. We both meet at the register, and our home is improved!! They carry mostly everything you could want. And if they dont have it, they know where to get it.Super awesome service. Great selection. This is my go-to hardware store.
Definitely one of those old school hardware stores where you can find that 1 thing you cant find anywhere else. And a friendly and knowledgeable staff , that are almost worth going in for just to shoot the s*it with.
This sweet shop is like a garden boutique!❤ Beautiful selection of pottery plants and delightful items for your entire home! The staff rocks!🥰 Very kind and knowledgeable. True Austin TX experience!😘
Good thing Breed exists--Id never find the stuff I need for my home. Home Depot is a nightmare but sometimes you need a little neighborhood place with real employees on the floor like Breed.
Always helpful and it is surprising how many items they carry. The people in the hardware department are way more knowledgeable and helpful than what youll find in a big box store. They are also very competitive with their prices. Come here first, you wont be let down.
Ace hardware practices in bad faith. Sold me a product at a discount online, emailed me to pick up and then refused to release the actual item when I showed to pick up curbside. Stated that it was a glitch in their promo codes and item should have been excluded. News flash -- you sold the item, honor it. Also note -- ACE is a huge corporation and it was a $5 discount on the item, it wouldnt have put them in bankruptcy and probably worth customer loyalty and satisfaction. Given the significant inconvenience, I would never shop at ACE for future purchases and will definitely share my experience with others.
Phill was awesome , got me all the stuff for my DIY project. Plus helped me modify stuff. Prices were the same as Amazon.
That is a review for their dumb looking personnel who chat among themselves in a blinded space in the store and they look like gangsta members of the block when you ask them a question about the location or availability of an item. Man, if you dont like it working there, get out! You piece of ...
I love this place, you can get almost anything here. From tools to Fine China. Great place for a wedding registry because he can go to the hardware store and you can pick out home decor all in one stop. So close to UT you can walk. And the service is amazing!
This is definitely the best local hardware store in Austin, and one of the best in Texas. They are consistently friendly, they greet customers when they walk in, and they always have what you need that is of good quality, practical use, and reasonable price. They also are well stocked, well organized, and they always have very high customer traffic. If they ask if you need help and you do, they are willing to help you every step of the way, and if they ask if you need help and you dont, they dont bother you, they dont watch you, and they dont follow you around. All in all, whatever you need, from novelty to practical, and from hardware/housewares to gardening/gifts, Breed & Co. is the place to go!
This is kind of random but whenever I need spare keys cut, I go here. They are so reliable, I never have to worry about getting a key thats too sloppily cut to work in the lock. And they have the nicest, most knowledgeable employees!
Great local hardware store with a lot more than your typical local hardware store! The selection is very good and the staff is very knowledgeable helpful, always eagerly offering their help.My general impression is that its a little bit more expensive than Home Depot, but definitely this is a good option for the area and also if youre looking for good service.
Okay so yes it does have normal Ace Hardware and garden. However, the store is far nicer with lots of high end home goods, cooking supplies, decorations, and food.Parking is always horrible here and expect to be surrounded by tons of soccer moms in range rovers.Worth going to for basic home goods, advice, or something to top off your home.
They may be a bit pricier than Home Depot it Lowes but if you need a hard to find part to fix or make something, the employees know there sh## and will help you. They have way more stock of items than the big box stores
I love that Breed and Co is close to my house, very convenient. They always have quality products and decent pricing. It is a bit crowded at the Westlake store, but not too bad. If you are looking for a nice gift, this is the place to go. I always go after any holiday as they have their holiday items on sale with great discounts. Occasionally I run into a snobby salesperson/cashier, but for the most part they are very helpful and friendly.
Little gem of a hardware store with a lot of hard to find items. Cant believe I never knew it was here. Will absolutely be visiting this place in the future
Homey feel. I love a human grinding keys instead of a robot. Centrally located and affordable!
This is only the second or third time that I have given a 5 star rating. Breed & Company deserves it without a doubt. The staff is extremely competent and knowledgeable and the customer service is exceptional. About 95% of the time the price is almost the same as the big box stores, so price is not really a factor.
One of my favorite hardware/home decor stores. Staff is friendly and knowledgeable and almost always find what I need and usually leave with a couple things I want. Definitely recommend.
First time here and Great place and friendly employees. Theyll take the time to help you and get to know you, great selection of tools. Just like in the good old days of a neighborhood store. Thumbs up guys!
Breed is both a great small hardware store and home goods store. They have a surprising large selection stuffed into the store and a helpful staff. Ive gone here for random hardware supply like electrical cord, nuts, bolts, and the like but they also have services like key duplication. I even got a $20 duplicate for a chipped Honda Accord key that would have cost $100 at the dealership. Breed also has a weekly knife sharpening service - I couldnt believe what an improvement a sharpening was for my kitchen knives and a lot cheaper than buying new knives! Theres a bunch of other home goods here that I havent really even explored but I would check here first before heading out on the highway.
I would love to rate breed and company on 29th Street higher, because it is an exceptional store. However, my most recent experience there left much to be desired. let me start by saying Im a 6ft tall 270 lb 40 year old bearded man. Its rare that I get attitude thrown my way. However I was having problems finding the wheelbarrow I wanted to purchase so I asked the young lady in lawn and garden to help me. We checked every inch of that store to no avail. Then she asked an older gentleman if he knew where it was. His condescending attitude toward her infuriated me but I said nothing. We moved on to another older gentleman who worked there and ask the same question. Yet again his condescending attitude toward the young womans question was wholly unacceptable.
Help me find what I needed quickly and easily
Breed and Co is a small town hardware store located in a large city. They have just about everything you can imagine from hardware to kitchenware to plants. All the staff is really nice and very helpful. I recommend going here over Home Depot any day!
This place has the best assortment of fittings, bolts and misc items. I needed a moon key for an small engine and they had it. Great place. FREE coffee gotta love that
Nice little hardware store if you need the basics. A little more expensive than home Depot but the down home service cant be beat.
I just love this place - every time I go! We went for the bucket sale, and took time to figure out what we wanted. Everyone is so nice, and the items they carry are high quality! No wonder we read about retail stores going out of business these days! Everyone was so friendly! Wish I had bought more in my bucket! Next time, it will be full! Also, have been to the Westlake store and only have great things to say. This is not a paid advertisement! LOL!
Great little one-of-a-kind spot. Attentive employees and more knowledge than you get at the big box stores. At the same time there are space limitations and its not necessarily the place you go when youre about to remodel the back half. However they do have one feature that no one else has, AKA they paint match exactly. When you get paid here and you ask for a match it actually matches. No one else in town can do this as far as I know.
A hardware store that is there to help. High end home decor is fabulous. Chocolatier is divine. If youve never been you this upscale, down to earth home improvement store, you havent been to Austin.
The only hardware store you need. Beats Liwes and Home Depot easily. Has complete line of nuts and bolts sold individually....even stainless steel. They never fail to have a part for me. Plumbing, electrical, home hobby stuff, building supplies....on and on.
Austin native here. Been frequenting Breed since I was 3 years old and they have helped me with SO many home improvement projects over the years and I have bought an insane number of cards, chocolates, Christmas/birthday presents here. Nothing but good experiences!
Been looking for one of these little guys everywhere! I’m an Arborist with Austin Metro Tree & Landscape and this is a diameter tape. It measures a tree across by wrapping around. It already has the math formula worked into the numbers and it makes the job way easier! Thanks Breed & Co!
I went to Breeds looking for a couple of sizes of A/C filters Breeds had one but not the other, an 18x30. I wanted 2 replacement 3 way lamp sockets. That part of the electrical section has not seen any housekeeping for a long time. After piling through everything in the area I found one in an open package. That whole section is a mess and poorly stocked. I wanted a couple of F40T12/CW bulbs. I found one in a 2-pack that had been opened and somebody took one and left the other. In addition in that section there were 4 used fluorescent bulbs, blackened ends and all. Again, terrible housekeeping! Who lets used bulbs sit on their shelves? I also wanted a nylon US flag. A very nice man helped me find them. I told him about the electrical section and his answer was that was going to be reset at some point in time. Come on Breeds! What about today? Their chocolate candy section does look very nice though if you are in to that sort of thing in a hardware store. For me I prefer to have a hardware store that keeps up on hardware items so that I can finish my projects.
Kind of a strange eclectic mix of wares for sale here. Regular hardware items, expensive dishes, candy, gardening. Just a fun place to go shopping. Friendly, knowledgeable staff to assist you if youre having trouble finding something or have questions.
An associate followed us around and repeatedly asked if we needed help in a manner that suggested we were going to steal something. She also watched and stared at us throughout our visit. The store was awesome though.
Old school hardware store, You will be greeted when you walked in, and an employee will always ask you if you need help finding anything to complete your project. I can only wish major department stores (cough, home depot) were as friendly and helpful. Thanks guys!!
Quaint old fashion hardware store with friendly helpful staff. It was my first time shopping there but I cant wait to visit again and check out the other half of the store.
If you have questions and want help figuring out what to get, Breed & Company is the place to go. They have the basics as well as more offbeat items; also things a homeowner or renter from the University might want. An ACE hardware store, they can get just about anything you need.I live in South Austin, but often come here rather than Lowes or Home Depot because of the service and home-town feel.
Ace Hardware over all others. They carry metric fasteners as well. A concept too difficult for other hardware stores (looking at you home depot) to comprehend.
Went into Breed & Company today to get a key made (3 copies of the same key), traffic was heavy and it took me 25 minutes to get there and 25 minutes to get back. I had the keys made and paid $2.49 + tax for each of the three keys. However, when I got home the keys didnt work, they didnt even fit into the lock which means that they used the wrong blank. I called Breed & Company to tell them that the keys didnt work and ask for a credit to my credit card as I didnt want to drive another 50 minutes for $7.50 plus tax. I talked to two employees at Breed & Company including the manager and they refused to give me a credit unless I drove another 50 minutes... I assume that customer acquisition in the hardware business is more than $7.50, in this case they lost a good customer for $7.50 and it was their mistake in the first place.They were not the helpful hardware people!!
Very friendly service. They are helpful & well organized. Also much smaller that the big boss stores which means less time getting lost. Or looking for help theyre just right at the counter
There is nothing quite like visiting a local hardware store. Most the people that work at Breeds will go out of their way to help or share personal experience on the problem you are trying to resolve. The guys in the hardware area actually build stuff. I always look for Phil. Hes my go to guy to get things done. Theyll even let you use their workspace in the back if you need to get out of a jam. The big box stores might save you a few bucks but in my opinion its not always worth it.
I guess that I should say, more accurately, that my wife loved it. Having collected numerous place settings throughout her life she thoroughly enjoyed the unexpected displays of fine China offered at this Austin hardware store of all places!
Ace hardware and also a great place for gifts and other cool items! Great spot for decor and holiday items as well!! Great people, too! Very helpful nice and knowledgeable
I had no less than four associates ask me if I needed help, and when I told each one what I was looking for, they knew exactly where to take me. This is also one of the very nicest hardware stores Ive ever seen!
I feel like a kid in a candy store in this place. I can always find things for any project, without buying 24 if I only want 2. Its like an old-time hardware store with helpful people and everything you need.
Nothing like a good ole school hardware store. i dont mind that the display isnt all big box, it def reminds me of the old store my dad took me to growing up. i highly recommend this place for most anything you need if youre in the area
I love this store. They have great gift ideas for weddings, bridal showers and house warming parties. The staff is helpful and friendly.
Great place that has all the hardware other places dont stock. If you need hard to find hardware come here! Friendly helpful staff as well!
Its fine and was handy for what I needed. Its really a retail type gift/ hardwear store.
Keep it local and keep it austin by heading over to breed and co. for those hardware needs. traditionally a hardware shop, they now offer a great selection of dinnerware and kitchenware. several times i have found what i am looking for at a better price than those conglomerates home depot and lowes.
Nice quality hardware and home plant items here at Breed & Company 29th Street location at the residential area vicinity of UT Campus. The counter staff and hardware tech assistants are genuinely helpful.
Normally a five star experience, but it ranked a bit lower this time because the garden center inventory was less than a quarter of what is usually available. Few plants.
I love this place for various reasons. The selection of merchandise in this store is astounding. The employees are always helpful and know where to find what you are looking for. They are also so customer friendly here.
Fine crystal stemware, linens, chocolates, childrens games, and more are displayed just aisles away from hardware items such as silver polish, Formula 409 cleaner, mops, brooms, and plants to name just a few. Friendly service and guess what: 50% off on many items today! (June 2018) Stop in and grab a coffee sample or bottled drink and brouse, brouse, brouse!
Super convenient hardware store for west campus, Phill was super nice and incredibly helpful, he really went the extra mile to help me out and gave me an even better solution than what I had in mind even though it was a few minutes before closing on the weekend
Horrible! Website said they had terrace board in stock, and didnt. Asked sales clerk and she was rude and unhelpful. Said I have to order, she could not. Drove 30 minutes to this store for this. I wont ever go there again. This place sucks.
Such a unique shopping experience and definitely an enjoyable experience for girlfriends shopping together,especially for housewarming or wedding gifts.
Such a great unique store great for gifts
A knowledgeable person helped me find every item in my list and suggest better alternatives. I will never go to Home Depot if Breed & Co. carries the item I need.
Very friendly staff, very well organized, a little on the priceier side for tools and hardware.
Nice little neighborhood hardware store. Its got all the tools/parts/equipment you could want and a helpful staff
Went in there today to buy some plants and when I finally got somebody to help me oh well you’re gonna have to wait until tomorrow because we are pricing today couldn’t give me a price right then I guess they didn’t want their money it was too much of a problem because there was only 10 people in the store never going there again I’m much better plants anywhere else anyway
This is a good ole hidden Hardware Store ! Bring the wife plenty of Goodies for her too!!
They didnt have what I needed, but the Salesman was willing to discuss alternatives to the tool I needed and referred me to another store. Very helpful!
This store is packed, something in every nook and cranny. the gift side is a little hoighty toighty but has a nice selection - the hardware store side is awesome and the staff on that side really knows their stuff and goes out of the way to help.
The most reliable place for a few tools / hardware stuffs here and there. Easy access from campus and friendly staff who know a lot. Always leave this place happy thanks
After going to home Depot Lowes I got the answers I needed from from this amazing place from people that really care I will continue to go and do more shopping there!
My all time favorite hardware store in TX SOMA area. They have every little gizmo and gadget the happy home invariably needs!
Love this store while it does not have everything you might need if your doing a project in your house but close and prices are comparable to the big stores
Love this little store. Its pretty small and the items are expensive, but it quite a bit of charm and there are not many other hardware stores in the area.
A great old style hardware store where they have everything you need.
This place is great! You can find any tool or craft needed to finish a household chore OR find a gift for anyone on your list. I cannot recommend Breed & Co. more.
Very good store this store is always very helpful I have never had a problem with staff there always willing to help and if you have a problem with a job you are doing they will go above and beyond try to help you figure it out
They have all kinds of stuff!! the paint guy really knows what is up. if you are looking for something obscure and cant find it even at the regular box stores, then go here. ill bet they have it.
Excellent service! Key station can make a duplicate automobile chip key! Helpful recommendations and have always found what I needed.
This place has an answer to just about.any reasonable request.There are seasoned employees that have more.lnowledge than you.could ever find on.the internet. There is a.good feeling when you walk into 29th St location. And also most a guarantee you will be.smiling and fulfilled when u lv.An absolute quality honest run business. Thank.tou thank you thank youThomas W
This store is like a smor-gish-board of awesome stuff. they have garden stuff to specialty fudge. come here if you want to kill sometime and youre tired of fighting the crowds at whole foods.
Friendly and helpful staff. Great neighborhood location. Parking. Shopped here for 30 years!
Okay, its a great hardware store right? BUT they also have a great candy selection! Love it. Super friendly employees.
Nice hardware store.Highly recommend it.
An upscale Ace Hardware, good help, lots of household items with standard hardware items
I loved this place they have Everything and there staff was super knowledgeable of all there products. I highly recommend them.
We love going here! The mixture of hardware items, upscale and unique household, kitchen, and dining items is always a treat.

Great store, wonderful variety of products, and friendly staff. Fun to browse and shop.
The only reason i shopped her was for a wedding i was attending. the products are amazing, but i could probably only afford to shop here once in a lifetime unless i win the lottery.
The paint department at Breed & Co. is extremely helpful! Theyve been so patient with a paint project that has taken months to complete due to a shortage of money.
I was looking for 0-10-10 fertilizer and dr. Bronners Soap. They didnt have either but they had Murphys Oil Soap and Rose fertilizer so itll get the job done.
If you need a niche repair item & dont want to buy it online, this store will probably have what you need.
This lady called my girlfriend a dude????
Very convenient downtown Hyde Park area. They got what youre looking for.Very helpful staff.
This is an amazing store. You can spend hours exploring. Be sure to check out the garden center.... More like a zen garden
They have a really nice gift shop. Kind of expensive for a hardware store though.
Great little neighborhood hardware store. Nice selection.
Great store friendly staff. Ive Delivered,and shop every time Im in area for the past 14yrs.
An unusual- but perfectly logical -combination of hardware store and home interior supplies. You can find everything in this place, its pretty incredible.
Its like Lowes but wayyyy cheaper and better
Great customer service
Breed and is Austin icann - great service & product. One of the best local center Austin hardware and more stores in Austin, TX

Great store and friendly helpful staff.
Amazing little shop. Wow. I kind of regret leaving this review. This is a place you want to keep to yourself.
Love to browse...wonderful gifts...my best source for polyurethane varnishes
For a place that is not too large, they always seem to have the tool/fitting that I need.
Actual hardware store, great selection of items.
One of my favorite home goods and nursery places to shop in central Austin.
My favorite hardware and gift shop in Austin Texas. It truly is a part of Old Austin heritage.
You can get metric stainless fasteners AND delicious bon-bons in ONE location. Plus great service.
Great place to shop always very helpful!
This is the nicest ace hardware Ive ever been in. Slightly overwhelming.
Dont have any ac parts though it is advertised that they carry them in store online
If you need it, theyve got it. From quality housewares to hardware and a staff thats very knowledgeable.
Great local hardware and home and garden store with knowledgeable staff.
Nice place You can find a bit of everything. Great customer service
Always a good time at Breed!
Friendly and knowledge staff that will help you without asking for anything concerning hardware, paint, tools, etc.
Find what I needed to buy so glad they had it there
Hardware store that sells truffles, charcuterie, cheeses, and a gorgeous garden area. Need I say more?
Love this place. Terrific for small hardware.
Grest neighborhood hardware store. Conveniently located and always has what I need in stock.
This place has the best hardware section. If you need it. They probably have it.
Quaint hardware store, refreshing from the larger corporate depot or Lowes.
Super hardware store, also great things for the girls👍
Part hardware part gift shop. So unique and quite unexpected. I love shopping here.

This place is great. Always good to buy local.
Nice store
Everyone here is nice and really helpful. i go here for all my kitchen, garden, and hardware needs.
Friendly helpful staff thats able to find what youre looking for!
Breeds is now Ace Hardware. They are close in Central Austin and likely have what you need.
Not as well kept as when the original owners had it...Plants in garden dying.
This is the 2nd best place in Austin to find odd nuts (fasteners, that is).
Great place the staff is very helpful and the place is well stocked
Hardware store plus gift store All of it is WONDERFUL💞♥😆

Great selection of nuts and bolts type hardware
The best place to spend all your monies!!

Old school hardware store with great stock

Shoutouts to Jerry who ignores you as you stand right at his register then acts really annoyed if you ask for help sorry to interrupt your podcast bro
Legit hardware store. Had the socket set and tire iron I needed.
Great little shop that has a little something of everything.
Has things cant find at home depot
Great selection of home goods and hardware.
Fab place does it all!
Garden section is lacking..and $$$ is right. But those who live in this area probably dont bat an eye at that. Just not for me..
Still one of the best hardware stores in Austin.
Excellent customer service from beginning to end

2022-06-04Staff were super knowledgeable, friendly, and quick to assist. I ordered an item on line to be picked up at the store. I got greeted by several employees when I walked in, my item brought to me to quickly, explained additional merchandise so I can get it to meetmy needs, and assisted in getting the item to the car. I am a happy customer that will return!!! Plus store clean and had cute and quality items.

2022-02-22Ive come here on quite a few occasions now to purchase hardware and get keys cut. Every experience Ive had so far has been great and I constantly see employees personally assisting customers for extended lengths of time so its clear that the workers here care. Be it home, gardening, woodworking, and whatever else it seems they have it covered.The only downside Ive seen is maybe theres not as large a selection of product brands as larger stores, but the products they do carry are at least often high quality top brands. Given their physical space limitations, I dont consider this factor a detractor.

2022-02-05Looked on line for an oil can...... The one that fits in your hand. A small metallic squirt can...,old school. Well, only seemed available on-line shipment. I found the same style, but new and modern, red heavy plastic. Thats okay, serving it purpose. Extremely statisfied with B&C. It is a wonderful store. I RECOMMEND A VISIT...

2022-05-02The store is very nice. Employees are very helpful. The merchandise is very expensive. These are things you can pick up at Lowes or Home Depot or even Amazon for a lower price.

2022-03-03A welcome change from the scene and vibe of the big box home improvement stores. I have consistently been able to find what I am looking for. When I bought paint (for the first time ever) I was being helped by the owner and she was extremely helpful and kind, and ended up assisting me at the register as well.

2022-07-02We went to Breed and got excellent service to fix a complicated solution for making a bird feeder problem needing several bolts and spacers. Craig got it done both quickly and very adjustable.

2022-06-23They are in-composite. Slow and truly infuriating to deal with. Their tone became aggressive when they don’t know what’s going on their side of the counter. How hard is it to pay for screws. Not hard. Whoever Davide is doesn’t know common sense and the old lady was frankly extremely rude and running around asking for advice? Idk super unprofessional and quit rude.

2020-10-12This is a great neighborhood hardware store. They sell just about everything, and the staff is very friendly and knowledgeable. They occasionally have good sales as well. For instance, I just bought a quart of Valspar paint--which is currently 50% off. Shop here instead of big-box stores.

2022-01-10When you walk through the door, the hardware’s to the right and the nice house warming stuff is to the left.I’m not sure. But I think that’s how people used to see gender roles.Very convenient for me when I just need 1 bolt.

2021-10-05This store has a surprisingly robust paint and hardware selection for the size. The home and garden center is equally big. Theres a lot of good stuff crammed into this tiny store but it doesnt feel cramped. Its a great place for practical gift shopping or picking up essentials. And if you do need something specific, the staff is very helpful and can happily have things ordered. An all around nice place.
