Sarah Pharis 2026.10.20

We have been coming to this store for a while now and honestly I am so glad we live so close to such an accepting and friendly place. The staff are incredibly helpful and the animals are very well looked after. What i love the most though is how accepting of all walks of life the store is. Especially showing pronouns on their shirts to ensure the staff are reffered to properly by the customers. It just makes me so happy and I just wish more places were like this and more bosses as wonderful as the owners here.

Hi Sarah, thank you so much for the really lovely feedback. We try our best to accommodate to everyone and making everyone feel as comfortable as possible this is one of our number one priorities (along with great animal welfare) but this review really means a lot to us as it's not always easy for everyone in todays climate so if we can do our part and make one persons day a little easier then we feel accomplished. We look forward to seeing you again soon :)

Not only do evolution Reptiles have really competitive pricing. But when I had an issue with my delivery due to the courier, they resent the order the same day for next day delivery! With nothing more than a very swift email conversation with Pete. Thank you Pete for your professional and polite service. Faultless service, highly recommended!

I recently visited Evolution Reptiles to get my son his very first gecko. Before heading over, I called about three different shops within an hour's drive to get some initial advice, and chose this one due to how helpful they were. In store, Taylor made us feel very welcome. She showed incredible patience with all of my beginner questions. Her knowledge and helpfulness made a world of difference, offering a vastly better experience than the other reptile shops I had popped into, where the staff seemed far less attentive to a newcomer. We left with our Gecko (Tango) about an hour later. We couldn't have had a better experience. Taylor's exceptional service made our first venture into reptile ownership smooth and reassuring. We'll definitely be back as our gecko grows!

Thank you so much for your lovely review. We’re delighted that you chose to visit us, and it’s wonderful to hear that Taylor made you and your son feel so welcome. She has a real talent for supporting new keepers, and we’re thrilled her patience and knowledge helped make your first experience such a positive one.

Tango sounds like a fantastic addition to the family. Starting out with reptiles can feel a bit overwhelming, so we’re really pleased that you felt confident and well‑supported throughout your visit.

We hope you’re all enjoying your new gecko, and we look forward to seeing you again as Tango grows. If you ever need advice or have more questions, we’re always here to help.

Staff were so friendly, full of knowledge about the Reptiles, their habitat, what's required for setting up, cost and very understanding when my granddaughter was asking questions, bringing out the reptile that my granddaughter was interested in. Highly recommend if interested in purchasing a reptile.

I've bought my first snake through Evolution and they have been so patient and knowledgeable, and helped me put together a very unusual vivarium set up. They've answered all my many many questions. Would highly recommend!

Small place but loaded with interesting creatures. Staff is friendly and helpful. Pete sounds like passionate about what he is doing. Spiders I bought from there are healthy and active. They were looked after. I will definitely visit again.
