Right now with Covid they have limited hours that are listed on the website - M, Wednesday, and Friday to do curbside as the bookstore is closed to the public. I came to visit and wanted to pick up a few items. What you can do is go to the bookstore and they have a binder of all of their items and someone will run in to get the items for you like a personal shopper. They have hand sanitizer and sanitize the binder between people. Wear your when rolling up. I got some cute baby items for my baby and friends. Another option is ordering online to ship or have it ready at the store - but there may be a processing time for that so you're better off doing the binder process if you're wanting something day of. Go Gauchos!!

Lazy Eye Shop's new Old Town Goleta location is that girl. Bright, welcoming, and effortlessly cool…read morewithout trying too hard. First off, inclusivity is not just a buzzword here. This shop is truly for every body and every budget, which honestly feels refreshing. You'll find a thoughtful mix of vintage and secondhand pieces, locally made ceramics, jewelry, and other treasures that make it very hard to leave empty-handed (I tried, I failed). And yes, they've got great stuff for men too. Andi, the owner, has curated a space that feels intentional and community-rooted and does an amazing job working closely with local artists and giving them a platform. You can really feel that care throughout the shop, especially if you've ever stopped by during the Old Town Goleta Community Walk. Alyssa is also an absolute gem. Warm, helpful, and happy to let you browse without hovering. The vibe is relaxed, friendly, and very "take your time, you belong here." Logistics matter, so let's talk parking. There's a free city lot on the corner of Hollister Ave and Pine Ave, plus street parking if you're feeling lucky. No excuses. If you love supporting local makers, vintage, and secondhand shopping and want a shop that actually walks the walk when it comes to inclusivity, Lazy Eye Shop is doing it right.

Furthermore the property manager of the location is completely rude, and questioned why we were there. At this point I Will never support this place again. As a UCSB grad I also will never recommend to any alumni. There is no reason to treat customers that way, and while he may not be a part of the business, he is a reflection of it. 0 stars.

Thanks to Josh and Lex for bringing Macher to all of us. Located in such a prime location, and with LOTS of parking. I was wrapping up my Christmas shopping on another beautiful Goleta day, and had people on my list ranging in ages from one to 91. And sure enough Macher had specialty gift items for everyone. Gifts for every room in the house, including some very special candles, fragrances, cook books, children's books, dishware, fun garden items, fun greeting cards, and some one-of-a-kind pillows. The list of their items really does go on and on, you really need to visit Macher to experience it all. I am looking forward to visiting Macher for any and all special occasions. I can truly say this is a special place. Conveniently located in the Calle Real Center, pretty much next to Kyle's Kitchen, and crawling distance to Trader Joe's.
