I think I'm supposed to be looking for a survey link in my email but my email's a mess so wanted to drop in here to say Daisy and Steven were super helpful at this store it leaves an impression! They're always smiling and helped me many times to find the blind box figures I'm constantly hunting for. It makes the shopping experience really pleasant! Thank you! read more

I hope the tattooed guy wasn't the manager cuz he had such a bad attitude with me right when I walked in the door. I don't know what his problem was he was acting like a straight up douchebag acting like I was wasting his time or something he's probably from the area with such a poor attitude and I drove freaking 45 mins to pick up my online order. read more

This review is somewhat long over due. I placed an online order of some items to pick up at Main Place Mall. I called them because boxlunch doesn't notify you/me when the item(s) are ready. Spoke with Anthony who had to give me the disappointing news that a few of my items weren't available and apologized that the online website didn't reflect it. He went above and beyond, calling the nearby and not so nearby stores, to see if they had any, then took it upon himself to have those items on hold for me. I really appreciated the fact that he took it upon himself to make the calls and have it on hold, so that I did t have to do the searching myself. It's really hard to find someone that, not only has the customer service, but also takes initiative in helping clients. I really hope your mgmt and/or execs give Anthony the proper recognition that he deserves. read more

Lenny the associate was very welcoming and kind. I appreciated his service. Selection of Winnie The Pooh was very nice. Lots of cool stuff to look at. read more

This store doesn't even Deserve any stars. I went in and one of the workers and the manager talked down on me and my cousin for being dressed different and had someone follow me because one of the workers had said they didn't trust me or my cousin for being , dressed the way we did and I had went in with my daughter and my Tia and cousin and I didn't Deserve to be treated like that being from a whole different County to a new one. is this how you treat your customers and later, acting all nice and innocent after knowing what they did? I would put 0 stars if it would let me but it doesn't. Learn to treat your Customers with respect!! Mind you this happened around 6-6:23pm today Saturday July 19 2025 read more

BoxLunch - And this place they have the lunchbox where I got talked bad about in the store called Lunchbox - Gift Shops Near Me - Santa Ana, California

Staff was super friendly and special thanks to Anthony and Venus for helping us out with our christmas shopping haul!! We've been to many locations and this location by far went above and beyond! The store was very clean and organized and all the staff were very attentive and ready to help! read more

MOST INCOMPETENT POOR TRAINED MANAGER named DAISY. I called at noon to make sure the shirt was in stock she said she didn't need the item number she knew what it was. Arrived to the store incorrect item said it was a misunderstanding on my behalf when she could've checked the item number like I asked her read more

Hubby and I came in here to do some Christmas shopping and the staff there were very helpful and super sweet. We even got to participate in a scavenger hunt! Very fun. Tons of items to look through and a great place for gifts. read more

There are sooo many great pop culture gifts here and a HUGE Loungefly selection! The employees were so kind and were very gracious about helping me reach things on some very tall shelves. They even have a little section of small items like unique candies and such that would be great for stocking stuffers! Prices are not cheap, but I think the items are worth the price tags. I recommend not rushing through this store! read more

I am definitely a patron of nerd-chandise (nerd merchandise)! BoxLunch is by far my favorite place to gear up in any of the following fandoms that I love -- Harry Potter, Disney, Marvel, Star Wars, Sailor Moon, etc. The list continues. They even have Jurassic Park and Pokemon! I mean, come on!! This place is bomb! Everyone that works there is so nice. The new store manager, who came from Irvine Irvine Spectrum's location, is so knowledgeable! For the most part, I am able to talk about cool/fun/nerdy things with them. Most of them seem to know me, which could mean a bad thing because that will mean I am a regular. The sad and a bonus part on my end is that this BoxLunch at MainPlace Mall is my go-to. It doesn't help that the 24 Hour Fitness and Starbucks there are where I go religiously. Thus walking from Point A to Point B, the store is right in the middle. A huge bonus is I feel good shopping there because they have a good cause. "With every $10 spent in-store or online, BoxLunch will help provide one meal* to a person in need through the Feeding America network of food banks." Of course I round up when I can just to help! I'm going to post some awesome photos of the nerd-chandise that I bought from there. It's pretty sweet. One of my favorite was a photo of my Harry Potter Deathly Hallows purse. That sucker trended on Instagram like crazy... for both BoxLunch, Loungefly, and me. #getsomegiveback read more

Found the chips I wanted to buy for a long time at this store very tasty chips yum so

Super cool pop culture store in Main Place! Kids and I had fun browsing in here for about 30 minutes! BoxLunch reminds me of ThinkGeek. Lots of nerd merch, with sections for Nightmare Before Christmas, Nintendo, Netflix shows, Pusheen, Bob's Burgers, Star Wars, NASA, etc. Found lots of cool stuff, and several items would make great White Elephant gifts! Kids wanted to buy everything in the place, so we finally left for my sanity. But I took lots of pictures and mental notes for Christmas presents! BTW, they are currently on their Christmas return policy, which means you can return items with receipt (or gift receipt) until 1/31! read more

I ordered a demon slayer box figurine for a birthday. It was delivered in a BAG packaging... so obviously it came damaged (it looked as if it got stepped on). The person receiving this gift collects these figures in the boxes and doesn't open the box so I needed an intact box. I called customer service and they said they would send a new one with overnight shipping. (Didn't come over night it took 2 days) when it finally arrived it came once again in a BAG packaging instead of a box to protect it and it came DAMAGED! I called again and they said I had to go down to a box lunch and return it to get a refund. I asked them why they didn't send it in a box to protect the figurine's box? They said THEY DIDN'T HAVE BOXES BIG ENOUGH... what ? I've ordered loungefly backpacks from them and they arrive in much bigger boxes then the demon slayer figure I ordered. I asked to speak to a higher up and it was denied. RIDICULOUS!!! read more

Staff was friendly, especially Daisy! She is super sweet and kind, not to mention kind of cute too. I always feel welcome. They give you time and space too look around and if you do need help, they are there to support. Happy to do business with Boxlunch at MainPlace. :) read more

Asian girl working closing shift literally kicked us out at 6:48 lmao it says it closes at 7. We only wanted to buy some shirts that I'm sure we're going to take less than 5 mins but that's not the point. If you're gonna be closing 20 mins before 7 update your hrs so people don't drive to your store and waste their time and gas. Also the guy who answered my phone call literally told me we had 20 mins before they close but when we get there we get kicked out Bc it's closed already lmao read more

So I called the store as soon as it opened and spoke with Mercedes I asked her if the new zero Pop came in and she was like yeah !!! I asked her can you hold it for me I will pick it up before the day ends and she said sure let me get your name down. I sent my daughter to pick it up for me they gave my daughter this excuse that they weren't allowed to hold pops and that my pop was not available for me completely disappointed with the store and their customer service . They need to train their employees with more information on reserving items for store pickups read more

BoxLunch - Had to pay so much more for getting my pop with delivery charges since they did not hold my pop in store - Gift Shops Near Me - Santa Ana, California

This store is AMAZING! I was visiting family in SoCal and we walked by BoxLunch the day after Black Friday, when I saw a ton of Disney stuff through the window! I was automatically drawn to the store, I just had to go in! The staff was super friendly and welcoming. My cousins and I left the store feeling happy to have walked in! I left with three new shirts and when I got home I shopped more on their website! 10/10 experience :) read more

Super friendly staff. Went in looking for a certain themed item. I wish I would have gotten the employees name (whom ever worked 9-25 about 430ish) the girl was super helpful. Thanks so much! It makes all the difference in the world! They plenty of items in store reasonable prices. read more

I love shopping here. Not only is the merchandise super fun and cute, the employees are AMAZING! They are super helpful, kind and patient.

I love this store! Everyone is super friendly and helpful. You can tell the employees enjoy what they do. I love the vibe of the store, they always have cool unique stuff you dont see anywhere else. I cant believe anyone could give these guys a bad review.....especially over web orders which the store has no control of and the hold policies which are posted all over and on their instagram. None of the box lunch stores hold pops. The store its self and the employees who work there are fantastic. read more

Went in today and was helped out by Alexis and Diana, they were both very nice and patient with me and my family as we walked around for a long time and looked at everything. They have such a great variety of items and I always enjoy coming in. read more
