They've done a lot or re-organizing over the last couple years, so the remnants and sale bolts they used to have are greatly diminished. And it seems that every time I go in, they've changed things around! But I find the staff to be very helpful and pretty knowledgeable. The Vogue that was near Fishman's has closed now - there's just the Evanston location now, so I hardly go there any more.Gailhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11189513869927434997noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5942397277086320916.post-18548225829270983312015-02-21T11:24:59.822-06:002015-02-21T11:24:59.822-06:00Is Fishmans still a good place to go?
