Funny... I'm not a hat person yet whenever I'm in Niagara-on-the-Lake, I seem to find a hat that I love, and can really use, at BeauChapeau! Great selection, great staff, great service.

BeauChapeau did a fantastic job cleaning and repairing my late Father's two fedoras. The staff were friendly and helpful. Worth the two hour trip.

It is almost impossible to find a proper hat these days, so I was delighted to find BeauChapeau. They have everything I could ask for, from skimmers to fedoras, from bowlers to silk top hats. I was able to find just the hat that I was looking for with the help of their very kindly and learned staff. I even have a lifetime guarantee that allows me to send it back to them for cleaning or repair, though I hope never to need it. I take care of my hats!

Great selection, great service!
There was a particular hat that I was looking for, but unfortunately, my size was out of stock. The capable young lady suggested that I could order it, no money down, and they would inform me when it was back in stock. True to their word, I was contacted when it arrived, My wife and I made another sojourn back to the store. My pre-ordered hat fit perfectly… And my wife found something she liked, so we made another purchase.
Very pleasant and helpful service, I’ve purchased many hats from them over the years, In my opinion, it’s probably the best hat shop in Canada!

Great selection, unique products, friendly and helpful staff. Definitely worth the stop if you're in the area. They also sell umbrellas for those unexpected rain days!

Thank you for taking the time to give us a review iDontWantATripAdviso. Glad you noticed the umbrellas....they often feel neglected next to the over 10 000 hats we stock, but you're right - we carry a few umbrellas too.

We both bought hats this visit. We had all the help we could possibly need. In spite of the constant stream of tourists passing though they seem to find those of use making a serious visit.

Nice store but I didn't find a summer porkpie hat. There are hats but nothing very original. Try again...

Thank you for your feedback valterdanchili.
A straw porkpie is a pretty specific thing and lately, there are not a lot of options out there for us when it comes to something so specific. You are obviously a very discerning hat-wearer! A lot of hat makers have recently narrowed their design options to 'SURE THINGS' due to world events and shipping/material delays and shortages. So this can sometimes be a problem for really specific styles.
We do have 4 straw pork pies in stock : beauchapeau. com/search?type=product&q=+pork+pie
and maybe we failed to show you all the options we had at the time you visited, so sorry about that. We also offer FREE RETURNS in Canada so you can order a few and then return the ones that don't work for you at no charge.
Additionally, we could customize any porkpie you'd like, so if you find a style elsewhere that really works for you we can alter it any way you'd like. Hope that helps, and we hope you find the exact hat you're looking for.

We stopped in during our latest trip to ON and our first trip to Niagara on the Lake. What a fun spot. I found a replacement cap for the one I bought in Victoria and my wife found something for a fall wedding. Very helpful service.
