So let's talk about it . The previous reviews vs my experience. I know .. I know.. The last thing I ever want to do is get crystals from a place with such negative reviews - especially if the owner's spirit is allegedly not good..but my life has shifted direction and cautiously I went to visit. You know... I had a great time. Jessie was my energy guide and she helped me along to figure out what I needed. As aforementioned - it is a time of change and clarity for me so I had to get some stones .. too much foolery going about. Sigh .. $85+ later. I'm guessing who people are speaking about was the other woman who was mature in age. She didn't seem friendly at all. I don't think she even looked me in the face one time. But this review is for Jessie and the energy and knowledge she brought me. Thank you Jessie. And the other woman for helping Jessie even if you seemed not inviting. Thank you too. read more

Their dog was not contained, which I don't mind, unless the dog scratches up the entire side of my car trying to attack my 6 month old puppy who was in my backseat. They had zero urgency to help and seemed to blame me. We left and will never go back. read more

Uncomfortable Energy and Unwelcoming Experience I came into The Crystal Barn with my mom and right away we were not acknowledged at all. No one greeted us or offered help. We walked slowly through the shop looking at the crystals, the jewelry, the displays, even walking right around the staff, and still no one said a word. There was a man sitting at the jewelry case who didn't even look up. The atmosphere felt really off. They were playing heavy metal music which didn't fit the space at all. For a shop that offers spiritual tools and readings, the energy should feel peaceful and high vibration. Instead it felt disconnected and uncomfortable. I'm an intuitive so I'm very sensitive to energy and environments. The moment I stepped in, I could feel something was wrong. The girl working there didn't smile, didn't engage, and the overall vibe was cold. It didn't feel like a place of healing or alignment. It felt like we were invisible. The store may have nice items but the energy and treatment we received completely overshadowed that. We left feeling really disappointed. I won't be returning and I wouldn't recommend it to anyone who values energy, warmth, or spiritual connection. read more

Wasn't sure what to expect, considering the reviews. Decided to see for myself, and check out the crystal selection. There is quite the variety-good selection for a Central Valley store. But if you know much about crystal prices, you'll see that a lot are overpriced. A few decent deals here and there, but I'm not paying $25 for a one inch amethyst moon. Be careful and know the value of what you're looking for. And then there was the workers?? Such weird energy. 3 women behind the counter, eyeballing all the customers so oddly? It was very strange. You could hear them complaining about things and giving the impression that they really didn't want to be there. And THEN we noticed many items from closed practices being sold. White sage, palo santo...you know how it is with metaphysical shops. Seeing those, being displayed with no mention of who/where they're being sourced from, combined with the very negative energy of the 3 workers there, is enough to make me not want to return. read more

Not sure why the bad reviews, but I went in today and was greeted almost immediately (I probably looked lost). I was interested in a Reiki session and tarot card reading and Brandi was able to accommodate both! Lots of beautiful gifts. Everyone that was working was super friendly. I would love to learn more about the items they sell (another day). Regarding my services, Brandi took the time to explain. I have had Reiki in the past (15 years ago) and it was as excellent as I remembered. Thank you Brandi and everyone working today. I'll be back. read more

I love this place! The vibe here is always positive! I meditate every day and the smells of the incense and essential oils takes me away from the outside traffic of anger and hate. If your looking for inner peace this place will help guide you to find yourself. I love the crystal assortments too! The employees are always helpful if you know what you're looking for.. I see a lot of negative reviews but I really don't get them. Maybe these people giving negative reviews need to meditate more. LOL read more

Crystal Barn - Current collection of incense - Spiritual Shop Near Me - Visalia, California

As much I want to love this place... I really got bad vibes here to the point where I was getting nauseous and hot. Everything was over priced but the crystals were beautiful. I didn't get much good customer service or help. I just hope this business can improve on this. read more

My wife loves the items in the store and try to support local. I went into buy some stone bracelets for valentines day. I had no clue what they were. So I asked front desk associate what each bracelet does and that I was searching for something for anxiety. I dont know her name but will update it later. Her response was surprisingly rude.. I quote, "I'm way too busy to sit here and go over all these bracelets with you." As she checked out 1 customer and sat there while the only sales associate Brandi took the time to explain them to me. The only reason I bought them was because of Brandi and my wife had been wanting them for awhile. We support local businesses as much as possible, even accepting higher costs when necessary but I refuse to accept peoples rude behavior. Won't be shopping there anymore. But goodluck read more

Lots of cultural appropriation. Oddly conservative for a metaphysical shop. Literally the worst vibes I've ever gotten from a store like this. A friend of mine said they were racist to her as well, I'm white so that is not my experience but I believe her 100%. I wouldn't spend my money there. read more

Love this place! I am not from the area but thought it would be nice to stop at a few places along my route to the retreat. This was hands down my favorite stop. I didn't even know they would have an intuitive available (Brandi Kay) for a section, but since I had the time, I jumped on the opportunity. Our section was amazing to say the least. I left with some valuable information and a new friend. Before I left, I also had to pick up a few gems. Their selection of jewelry is quite nice too. Let's just say I will be back, and when I need another reading, I will give Brandi a call. read more

I found what I needed here. Lots of variety of products. During holiday they offered clients some cookie treats, which is nice.

Great shop! I purchased some crystals and a tarot deck here. The workers were very helpful and not pushy at all, grey for all your spiritual needs. read more

Very time I walk into this store I get disregarded. Customer service is terrible and they don't greet you at all unless you look a particular way. I get very low vibrations and just low energy from this store despite all the crystals. The store seems very money hungry and you'd think they'd at least want to ask how your day is going. I would not recommend not a good experience over all. It's the same treatment every single time. Go to ziayas or even Gary's jewelry & lapidary supplies. :) read more

Crossed paths with this place about 5 years ago, and I'm a faithful customer. They are very helpful and good at helping you find just what your looking for and more. read more

What a beautiful niche market and she is fully stocked! Cute and kitschy. The smells of incense and the colorful crystals and the atmosphere are so cool here. read more

Just walked through the crystal barn...stood above the jewelery case looking at rings... the sales lady ignored me and never once asked if I needed help...too bad...I would have bought something...but just didn't feel it!! Bad vibes never going back there... Yvette read more

Really amazing store great stuff. Great vibe. The people working there are always so helpful. I really like coming in. Highly recommend that you go and check it out very worth it. read more

Not sure how anyone can throw hate at a crystal shop that has a golden retriever to greet you! I mean, seriously, their adorable pup came running from the back room to say hello. Y'all need to align your chakra's if that's not the best thing ever. My work sends me to Visalia a few times a year, and I always make a point of stopping here. I always find unique crystals that I don't find elsewhere. Will be back! read more

The items in this store are very nice... Too bad their customer service is NOT! The lady working there seems to hate her job and she takes it out on customers (specially non-white people) ... she'll make you feel like a burden if you ask for help or any questions and if you get her to open a display case she'll give you attitude and leave before asking if you need anything else... Never going back in this place, the last thing I need when picking crystals or sage is someone with such a horrible energy/attitude... There's also better places in Visalia like Zaiyas downtown! read more

My friends and I love this place. I find the ladies at Crystal Barn very sweet and helpful. You may have to wait a minute for attention and that is because they give their customers FULL and genuine attention. They also share info on other local stores and events. I look forward to many more happy shopping days at the barn. read more

they have a good crystal selection yeah but listen to the reviews when they say the staff is racist. every time me and my sister go we always get mild to below average (we aren't white obviously) but they go above and beyond for others lol. i overheard one of the much older ladies give an unnecessary commentary about how they aren't vaccinated to a customer and didnt really care for the mask mandate since the beginning,,, ew. yall know the vibes already from that. read more

Like the store but an elder woman who works there was EXTREMELY rude to my husband. Which I just seen a review on how she is rude to non white/Hispanic people. She actually went as far as saying he's annoying because he asked for a price while she was trying to count money. Very miserable acting woman. Not friendly at all. Will no longer be shopping there. read more

Stopped in on our way to the Sequoias from Southern California. What a great place! The two ladies working had us in stitches with stories of quirky things that happen in the store. We picked up a Himalayan pink salt lamp and a couple beautiful pieces of amethyst for very reasonable prices. This place is a must... we will be back ladies!! read more

Walked in the store very curious and excited. I was not even greeted by the older, blonde lady who was working. I kept trying to ask questions and she made me feel very stupid for asking some. When I got to the register to pay for my things, she said I cannot use my debit card since my items were under $10. So then she insisted on scanning random items and picking for me to get my price over $10. Very disrespectful because I should've been the one to pick what I was buying. I definitely regret giving any money to this shop. Felt very uncomfortable and unwanted in the store. Very sad read more

I like stopping in here whenever I'm in Visalia. I always find something unique or helpful. Nice people working there.

I feel wonderful EVERYTIME I go to shop here! I love this place and I cant describe the feeling of peace after! they have a wonderful selection of Crystals and Stones. Very powerful place! I buy my Charged Reiki Candles here too! I'm out of incense so I will be back soon as I just fell in love with the one I just bought. last month they had a half off sale. Everything in the store was half off! My son and I both took advantage of that! LOVE this store! To all the bad reviews, I say poo! The place has energy, when you buy pieces the staff knows you are there as a sensitive usually and that is why I feel they give you your space, to look and feel. If you are interested in something, smile and be open to the staff who are glad to help you. they are people too! read more

I am super bummed that I was in the store for just under 10 minutes and was never greeted . The lady was helping a women at the cash register area pick out jewelry but I was so close to them looking as well and was never even said hello to. I would have probably not boughteb anything anyways seeing as though the selection of crystals were limited and I was really looking for a gift of multiple gemstone bracelets and saw about 2. Bummer I was super excited to come check out this place and drove from Hanford. Never again. read more
