Dawson rhymes with awesome! This is a great hardware store. They have had everything that I needed each time I’ve gone, which is pretty often in the past 5 years. They have an impressive selection that includes housewares and a bunch of hard to find items. The staff is very friendly, helpful and knowledgable and there are plenty of them available to help. I love the Benjamin Moore paint section and appreciate the guys’ patience as I go back time after time in pursuit of the perfect color. I don’t care that prices are more than at a Lowe’s or Home Depot– I’ve never gotten the service at one of those places that I have at Dawson’s.

I’ve been going to Dawson’s since we moved to Beverly years ago. Their expertise has saved me hours of time searching for things. It’s easy in easy out and back to my project when I go there. Big box stores take so much more of my day. I had a water issue in my cellar and they set me up with a water indicating switch that would automatically turn on the pump. She took it out of the box and showed me how to make it all work. I went from wide-​eyed to wowed that day and have been coming back ever since.

Great local spot. The staff is always helpful and nice. They have a good variety and selection and offer other unique services like tapes to CD/​DVD, screens, lamp shades, carry Ben Moore paint, propane tank refills, etc. It could be pricey though; the one downside. Overall all a solid hardware store.

I’ve been here numerous times (both tools, parts, and paint — Benjamin Moore). These guys are great, super friendly and really helpful. Prices match the bigger places like Home Depot for a lot of stuff — enough to make it totally worth it to shop here.
Great service!

Great friendly service. They can always find the little part you need to finish the job. They are more expensive than the box stores but are able to service your needs and do not need to buy in bulk! They can sharpen your kitchen knives as well as lawn mowing blades etc. They also do a great job replacing screens or glass. Worth going every time to get it right the first time!

I’ve gone to this store a few times. I always like to support local business, but I can’t stand being robbed. Prices here on everything are high. Customer service at checkout is brutal too. High school kids they have there rarely care about that.

I agree with Steve W.‘s remark: poor customer service. A few people are helpful, but overall it is pretty shabby. One man was outright nasty when I asked for a glass for a hurricane lamp and didn’t know the size. I told him I would know it when I saw it. Unfortunately that didn’t happen as he wouldn’t show me the lamps unless I told him the size. The last two times I’ve been in there I’ve been treated with scowls and a general indifference. On the other hand, the man who cuts the shades is helpful and courteous. The rest of them need to go to charm school and learn basic customer service skills. I will go elsewhere.

A little out of my way, but worth it for their selection. I usually am working on a boat project and their stainless hardware selection is probably one of the best I have ever seen in a regular hardware store; they carry good 316 stuff not the cheap home depot stainless. Think stainless tiny metric set screws… that extensive.
Their housewares selection is good too, carrying all kinds of tupperware, small appliances and knives etc. A classic all around hardware store. If you don’t see a small item you need definitely ask someone at the counter in the back, they have way more assorted hardware items off the floor like small engine parts, o-​rings and the like.

This is a great neighborhood store with a relatively large selection of hardware stuff and a lot of little things you might not expect to find in such a store. The service is very helpful and friendly!

Unless you are doing a major construction project, there is nothing that Home Depot or Lowe’s has that you can’t find at Dawson’s at a reasonable price. There is one thing you can always find at Dawson’s that is often lacking at H.D. and Lowe’s: excellent customer service from people who know what they are talking about.

Dawson’s in Beverly is great. I was looking for a lawn mower last year and after pricing the stuff at the big depot stores, I went to Dawson’s. They had a nice basic Poulan for ten dollars more than that big place off of 128. The difference is, this one was assembled, the fellow who sold it to me put some gas in it and started it up to show me the controls and make sure it worked, and then helped me put it in my truck. The discount I later go from my shopper’s card made up the difference in price AND i got great service. This is why I shop local stores.
They do run low on stock from time to time, but that’s a minor complaint. I’m there two or three times a month (more in the summer) and always get what I want from someone who not only knows what they are talking about, they manage to be pleasant about it.

Dawson’s is the the premier hardware store on the North Shore. The expertise of the staff is wonderful. I have learned a great deal from Rhonda and Brian, but they are all helpful and knowledgeable. I can take in any plumbing problem and learn not only how to install the new parts but what the likely pitfalls will be. The store is very well stocked, and I have never walked away without what I needed.

Rowley, MA
My father-​in-​law told me about this place about 9 months ago so now I sometimes drive all the way down from Rowley because this is what
a hardware store should be! They are not too big like that orange or blue store but big enough to have all kinds of stuff that you might not find at those stores. But most importantly, they have hardware, nuts, bolts etc and people that know how to help you find it. I’d give them 5 stars put the prices are not the best you can find and those big box stores in NH are tax free. Yes, sometime the dark side grabs you with the better price!

Dawson’s is an excellent thing to have in the North Beverly neighborhood. It keeps me away from the tyranny of the Home Despot, and is ever so much more convenient. They have everything from firewood to paint to mulch — all this and propane too. Plus, a cheap toy aisle to keep kids happy while I look for that thingy that I needed, and funny little gadgets in P.O.P. displays by the registers.
Also, I have found there is always someone to help when I don’t quite know what size or type doohicky I need. It is big enough to have lots of stuff, but not so big that you can’t find someone to help you or you can’t find out quite quickly whether or not they have what you are looking for.
You can’t really buy lumber or lots of nursery plants here.. .but other than that, a good local alternative to you-​know-​where.
