Chelo, hands down the best customer service. She really put Filipino hospitality in the customer service values and business mission. I am impressed. She was so communicative for the past couple of days. We were visiting SD for my husband's family reunion and being on the heels of my brother's wedding days later back in the Bay Area, she really came through for us. I sent her a picture of my son who is half black and white and half Filipino because I needed your relay he's bigger than most Filipino kids his age. And amazingly, she understood because her kids are mixed too! She was confident to try and just overnight mail the barongs to us but she ended up accommodating us on our way back home. She was truly lovely!!! SF BAY AREA folks, if you aren't finding what you need back home like us, call Chelo! It's really cool to have someone in our generation really represent and pass on the importance of our culture this way. Total respect! Thank you again Chelo and family! read more

Barong Warehouse - My pogi boy - Women's Clothing Near Me - Escondido, California

I loved it. You have to make an appointment online so they can give you the 1:1 service. It felt like my son was a prince because he had his own shopping experience. We were looking for a barong for my sons christening and this was the only place in North County where we could actually try it on. Filipino sizes don't always coincide with American sizes so I didn't want to take a chance. Cello was amazing. She really assisted us w asking about our preferences per the cost and the occasion. A little pricier than I was expecting but I get that barongs and other Filipino dresses are few and far between. After we chose our barong, it was nicely steamed and wrapped for us. Had a great experience. I'm read more

Barong Warehouse - Women's Clothing Near Me - Escondido, California

My wife, brother, sister-in-law, and I were in the market for barongs and Filipinianas for a blessed family event later this year and my wife had found the Barong Warehouse on social media. I had been bugging her for us to make an appointment and we finally made one, which also worked for my brother and his wife, so we made it a daytime double date. We were able to find beautiful and intricate barongs and well designed Filipinianas that we'll be proudly wearing and showing a part of our Filipino culture at our event. Besides the large selection to choose from, what I really loved about our first time visit to the Barong Warehouse was the personalized, attentive, and friendly customer service from the owner Chelo. Barong Warehouse is located in Escondido where we took the E. Valley Parkway route to get to the shop. It's approximately 15 minutes from Valley View Casino. The store can be found within a small strip mall called Old Mill Pond. Other tenants of this mall are Mediterranean Fuego Grill, Los Plebes Barbershop, and Jafra. It's next to Bamboo House Chinese Restaurant and it's across the street from the Palomar College Escondido Education Center. There's plenty of parking for customers. There's a koi fish pond in the middle of the strip mall. If you want to visit Barong Warehouse, it's by appointment only and the appointments can be made on their website. If you have more than three people shopping, make appointments back-to-back, so that you have an entire hour to shop. Before I visited the store, I wondered why they operated by appointments, but after shopping there, I now understand why. By making visits by appointment, Chelo was able to give her undivided attention to us and assist all four of us without being interrupted. I really enjoyed our shopping experience because Chelo was super friendly, displayed patience, gave us great recommendations, and she had a positive personality. The Barong Warehouse is not a big store, but it maximizes its space. One part of the store has the barongs and to the right of the barongs are the Filipinianas. There's a long, comfortable sofa you can sit on after you've selected your clothing. There are two mirrors that you can use to look at the clothing you're thinking about. My brother and I were interested in a variety of barongs and Chelo was so helpful with bringing out different sizes and styles. She even helped us take off the barongs when we had difficulty taking them off after we looked at ourselves in the mirrors. My brother and I are big dudes, so we were glad that Chelo had larger sizes for us to try on. Besides the traditional barongs where the buttons go down 3/4s of the way down, they also sell barongs that button down from the top to the bottom. They also sell standard collars, Chinese collars, jackets, and short sleeve barongs. They have high end fabric and not as expensive. I wish the tags showed the prices of each of the barongs because we had to ask Chelo multiple times what were the costs of the barongs we tried. My wife and SIL really enjoyed the selection of Filipinianas, so much so that my SIL purchased two of the same style, but different colors. Along with Filipino apparel, the store sells Filipino merchandise. If you're in the market for a barong or Filipiniana, I highly recommend the Barong Warehouse to find a beautiful, elaborate, and well crafted piece to show off our Filipino culture. The friendly customer service from Chelo is why this shop should be the first and only place to check out. read more

We came here in search of a baron for my father to wear to my mom's. Cello was fantastic. She was personable and patient. I've ordered barongs from their online store, and this was the first time we were able to visit the storefront. Available by appointment only. They had so much varieties of barong to choose from. Which everything is made from the Philippines, I highly believe in supporting our kababayan esspecially with the amount of work that is put in these garments. They even had filipinana dresses and home goods. Their prices were also great and reasonable , we ended purchasing 2 barongs, a jacket, and a scarf. They also do offer alterations unfortunately we did not have enough time as we needed this item in two days. And Cello even steamed our garments, which is very helpful. Will definitely meet back there again. read more

Barong Warehouse - Perfect fit - Women's Clothing Near Me - Escondido, California

What a gem! Never thought we'd find a barong shop in Escondido. Barong Warehouse is truly the best of the best when it comes to experience, quality, professionalism, and service. Their store is very clean and organized. Prices are comparable, but can also be pricey, which makes sense given the merit of their products. The best thing, they're able to make alterations! Chelo made the experience welcoming and personable. She was very patient, accommodating, and knowledgeable about their items and inventory. No walk-in's, call to schedule an appt before coming in. Not going anywhere else but here. We found so much good stuff! read more

So happy to have Barong Warehouse in Escondido as it's much closer drive than LA. Cello was very accommodating with scheduling an appointment last minute. She was also very helpful with picking out a Barong for my husband and a Filipina bolero for me. Plenty of selections to choose from, but you can also customize, which is what my husband did. Prices were very reasonable and free shipping if you needed to have one ordered in your size. Highly recommend checking them out, just make sure to make an appointment. read more

Chelo, the best customer service! Overall experience exceeded my expectations. Thank you, Barong Warehouse! Will be back for sure!

I had such a wonderful experience here and just had to share. From the moment I walked in, everything felt so warm and welcoming. The service was incredibly friendly and fast. I was able to find exactly what I needed without any stress at all. What really stood out to me was the extra care. She even took the time to steam my barongs so they'd be ready for my upcoming trip, which I appreciated so much. It's those thoughtful touches that make a place truly special. I'm so thankful to have a space like this here in Escondido that beautifully showcases Filipino culture. Being here genuinely deepened my Filipino pride, and that means a lot. If you're looking for barongs or anything for a special occasion, I highly recommend stopping by. You'll feel taken care of and leave with something meaningful. read more

We had the best experiences here. After trying to find barongs and filipinanas in-town, we decided to make the drive to Escondido. We scored big with the perfect clothing for our fashion show representing the Philippines. The owner was very accommodating and open to ideas. The price point fit the quality and craftsmanship of the clothing. We even were able to buy some fun things to accessorize. We'll definitely be back when we need more traditional attire. read more

Barong Warehouse - All the barong styles - Women's Clothing Near Me - Escondido, California

This is for their website and customer service. I had ordered a Sungka to have since it was one of my favorites as a kid. I had received my order and was a bit disappointed since it wasn't what was described. I wrote an email asking if it wasn't possible to fix (I wasn't expecting a whole lot since it's from another maker). A few weeks later, I received another that was in a much better condition and a handwritten note. I am so pleased with their treatment of their customers. I will definitely be ordering more things from them and hopefully can make it down to their store. read more

Amazing service and good selection! My grandfather passed recently and my family decided to wear traditional Filipino formal wear to his funeral. We were able to get a next day appointment. We brought the whole family and were able to find 2 shirts and 5 dresses. They even had cute dress options for my toddlers! The prices here were lower than other barong stores in SD we've been to. Good sized parking lot and the store was very kid friendly. We will definitely we coming back! read more

Great place if you are looking for traditional and new fashionable/stylish Barongs. They were able to accommodate larger sizes which was extremely helpful because my husband is usually a 2xl-3xl and we were afraid to order online without him trying it on first. The owner is extremely helpful and friendly and they have a huge selection for everyone! (Men, women, kids) read more

LOVE that we have a baring store in the north county! It's appointment based only which makes the shopping experience so much more intimate. Their selection is amazing, with a mix of traditional and modern. Prices are actually fair and some selections, unbeatable. The quality is perfection. We were treated with care and respect. Definitely go! read more

Had to set an appointment to shop in the store. No big deal because I knew that it wouldn't be super busy. I got there about 10 minutes before my scheduled appointment and she opened the door and greeted me by name. At that point, I knew that it was gonna be an easy purchase. Told her exactly what I wanted and she found something that was very comparable to what I needed. Marie was kind and patient with my request and showed me a few selections before I chose which I think is perfect. I was expecting the cost to be a little bit more because it is a traditional Barong made in the Philippines, but was pleasantly surprised at the cost. Will definitely shop here again and will recommend their business to anybody looking for traditional Filipino clothing. read more

Chelo was so accommodating, she was very helpful in helping us decide what styles and designs would work for my wedding for myself and my groomsmen and mom. She provides the best barong purchasing experience in San Diego! I ended up buying a colado, 2 regular formal barongs and a dress for my mom read more

Must make an appointment on their website to get your personal fitter. No need to drive to LA or fly to the Philippines to get a barong. Needed one for a wedding, they do have pre made barongs but couldn't find one that fit well. So had one custom made to fit right and I could pick the design. The measurements were taken and the barong was made via from the Philippines. Will come back if I want another one made. Almost the same price I could get in Manila but one less plane ticket. Definitely recommend and they also do Filipina dresses too. read more

We did not have an appointment. which is highly recommended but because we knew what we wanted/needed, they were very kind to let us purchase for a special event coming up. Chelo was so friendly, knowledgeable and accommodating. Allowed us to try several options to get the right fit. To be honest, ended up buying more than I planned but with the selection and reasonable pricing, couldn't help it. Will definitely be back as well as order online. read more

Found Barong Warehouse online and after doing a little searching discovered that they are local to the SD area. I made an appointment to check out some of their selection of barongs for my father-in-law's funeral and I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the barongs as well as the diverse selection. Chelo helped me with selecting the perfect barong as well as sizing. She was friendly and helpful as every step. I ended up purchasing ten barongs for the pallbearers and will definitely be visiting again if I need a barong for any future occasion. Thanks Barong Warehouse for making a difficult time easier! read more

I was required to pay in full for a custom dress at the time of ordering, but I never received it. This is the short version of what became a long and stressful experience. I plan to take the matter to court to seek full reimbursement when I have the time. The owner apologized and said they were having issues with their vendors in the Philippines, but based on my experience, I would not recommend purchasing anything you cannot take home the same day. Otherwise, you risk losing your money as I did. read more

I only came in wanting one barong... but I ended up leaving with three! That's how good the quality is at BW Barong Warehouse. The craftsmanship, the detail, the fit--everything is just on point. You can really tell they put so much care into every piece, and it's all rooted in Pilipino tradition. The store itself is amazing--super organized, beautiful displays, and just a great vibe overall. It's not one of those places where you feel rushed or overwhelmed. Instead, you actually enjoy the process of finding the right barong. Big shoutout to Chelo--she's seriously the best! She walked me through everything, from the types of fabric (like piña and jusi) to the meaning behind the different embroidery patterns. Super helpful, super friendly, and made the whole experience feel personal and easy. If you're looking for a traditional barong that actually fits great and feels special, you have to check out BW Barong Warehouse. I'm beyond happy with my purchase (or should I say purchases?). PS. please set an appointment before coming in the store. read more

As I've attended various events, formal and casual, Chelo from Barong Warehouse has provided exceptional service and helped me choose from their variety of selection. I've worn the Hawaiian Barong to summer parties with my family. I've had my boyfriend wear their Tradirional Barong to formal family events. Both are great quality, making us feel like we can't get this anywhere else at such a reasonable price point. Great service, selection, and value - this is where you need to go for all your Filipino-wear needs. read more

We found Barong Warehouse while we were searching for my sisters wedding. Maria was extremely helpful! They have a big selection of barongs! From formal wear to casual, they have it all!

It's super spacious, has dressing rooms and space for your guest to sit while you try items on. Highly recommend coming here for your Filipino wear needs. read more
