I like Eddie Bauer a whole lot more than L.L. Bean. Eddie Bauer is located in the Deptford Mall, whereas L.L. Bean is located in the Promenade at Sagemore. The staff at Eddie Bauer are very helpful and friendly. They help you out when you shop (actually they provide better service than the clerks at many pricier stores), and they are very polite. However, since there weren't too many customers, it got a bit annoying when they kept asking "How are you making out?"
The interior of the store is very nice. It is like a lodge, a lodge that is brightly lit. The fitting rooms are clean and there's plenty of them. There's no line to wait in when you're ready to checkout, and all clothes of the same style/color are grouped together. So when you see a color of something you like, you can buy many things in that color. The prices are cheaper than those of L.L. Bean, and overall Eddie Bauer items are quite decently priced. I found some really nice clothes on sale here, and they were priced to move. This store is located to the right of the Center Court near the Disney Store.
