Barrette's Hardwood

This place is the definition of a hidden gem! You could drive right past it without knowing it held BY FAR the best selection and quality of wood in all of New England in my opinion. Every length, width, thickness, dimensional and slabs you could ever need. Best of all, the people who work there are SALT OF THE EARTH. I walked in for the first time today, was greeted by Ben, and instantly felt welcome and wanted. He asked me what brought me in, which this time was just to get a little bit of walnut and maple for cutting boards. I'm only a hobbyist woodworker and being a hobbyist woodworker, sometimes you don't get the time of day at other lumber yards. NOT HERE!!! Ben took me through the whole place to show me everything they had, everything they could do, and actually cared

We have been looking for a rough edge bar top for a while but had difficulty finding one wide and long enough. What a great selection and friendly knowledgeable service. Warm and friendly, no pressure and a great experience.

This place is incredible. I spoke with the owner, Ben, and had a great conversation with him about the inventory and the history of the shop. I will be making the trek for all my woodworking projects from now on. KEEP THESE GUYS IN BUSINESS!

I had been looking for a black walnut table top for quite a while, but had a hard time finding the right one. As soon as I walked into Barrette's, I knew my search was over. They had every piece of wood you could imagine, and on top of that, the staff was incredibly kind and helpful. I encourage anyone with a woodworking project to pay these guys a visit.

I enthusiastically echo the other positive reviews! Ben could not have been more inviting and helpful during my 1st visit! Their inventory is amazing and it is especially great for an amatuer woodworker to have a wide variety of smaller board lengths (less than 4ft) yet never did I feel like I was wasting their time with my small purchase. Absolutely my 1st choice for hardwood boards!
