Suggestions for a tailor?

[guxx.livejournal.com]

I need to have some blazers and pants hemmed. Suggestions on a place to bring it? I've used the dry cleaning services of this place on Broadway in Teele Square, in that brick building near that pizza place. I think they do tailor stuff too but don't know their rates or level of service.

Looking for affordable but good quality.

Thanks.

Jack's, on Mass Ave., the outbound side, just outside Porter Sq.

Elegant Cleaners on Mass Ave, between Porter and Harvard.

Yes. They have mended and altered many things for me. They are awesome.

Google's drawing a blank. Where on Mass Ave?

The woman at Hawk Cleaners in Teele Sq. has good prices and is fine for pants hemming. I haven't had anything else done there.

Really? I just dropped off some shirts to be cleaned at Hawk. She does hemming too? I think I might prefer the Chris Fine Tailor place across the street, unless if I hear strong reviews of something different.

Whereas my experience with Chris Fine Tailor is that they took forEVER and when I finally got my bridesmaid dress back (the day before I had to leave for the wedding, so it was too late to do anything) it was still too big and had to be held up with safety pins.
