What a cute gift shop! I had gone to this place while in the city of Ventura. We were camping…read moreabout 30 min away. We on Main St. to go thrifting. One of the gals mentioned they knew the owner of the place that we should check out the store and see if the owner was in town. While waiting for the owner we took a look around and found some cute, fun and funny things! They had a Christmas tree decorated with camping themed merchandise which of course caught our attention. They had a little bit of everything for almost everyone and any age. Well, maybe not for infants at least i don't recall seeing anything for infants. The found the prices on some of the merchandise to be reasonable. Some of the clothing were on the pricey side. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Although I didn't purchase the really cute, and funny kitchen towels, I did purchase a couple of stickers (I enjoy stickers!). This business will find me here again if ever in the area.

They've always done a good job of creating small vignettes to show off different themes. This being Ventura, they definitely carry a lot of beach-themed items. One area that caught my eye this time was a section with camping / get outdoors / celebrating the National Parks merchandise. Some very cute and unique stuff to be had in that section. I found something for my aunt to make as a gift. She's making a goal to get around to all of the National Parks, and is steadily chipping away at it. What I got will help memorialize that in a whimsical way. The ladies who work the store are friendly and helpful, which makes the shopping experience even more delightful. Take your sense of humor in when you visit - you never know what you'll find to make you smile and even laugh out loud.

Out West Market is the kind of spot where you can easily spend a while wandering and still feel…read morelike you've barely scratched the surface. Treasures in every corner. The shop has a really well-curated mix of vintage clothing, Western wear, art, and home goods. It doesn't feel cluttered like some antique stores. Everything feels thoughtfully selected and worth digging through, and the prices feel fair for the quality. There's also a back patio with a clearance-style section, which is a fun little bonus if you enjoy the thrill of the hunt. The owners are friendly and refreshingly hands-off, which I appreciate. You can explore at your own pace without someone hovering every few minutes. An Avenue neighborhood gem next to Lalo's, with street parking out front that makes it easy to pop in. If you enjoy vintage with character and a little Western flair, this spot is definitely worth a visit.

I have had the most amazing experience with Matt and Courtney at Folke! I've been a customer since…read more2019, and have purchased several pieces of furniture (couch, desk, table, chairs, etc.) and also commissioned a custom bookshelf and surfboard rack. Matt is a true craftsman. The level of detail he puts into restoration and custom work is immaculate. I'm consistently blown away by the quality and how Folke's work holds up over the years. I'll always be a loyal customer.

Before I begin my own review of Folke, I have to address a review that somebody else posted- They…read moresaid they felt discriminated against there, because they're Mexican--?! How can that be, when Folke literally has an employee who has worked there for over 3 years, and is full Mexican? So I don't know what's up with the salty review, "G Money". Anyways, I first bought a set of beautiful vintage walnut side tables here about a year ago or so. Last week, I went in to buy some candles, and the owners were as sweet and easy to talk to as ever. In an age full of online shopping and cheap garbage, it's refreshing to me to find a store with meticulously curated products, beautifully styled. It's like a museum in there with all of the amazing designer vintage pieces by Eames, George Nelson, Saarinen, etc. I'll continue to support this small business, and recommend them to my friends and family. Keep up the good work, guys.

I will say that this outlet can be really hit or miss if you're looking for bit furniture…read morepurchases. But, if you can find what you're looking for, you're going to get an incredibly high quality piece for a fraction of the price. One thing we do like to come here for are for smaller sized options. Towels, back to school backpacks, etc. They always have a good selection here and things are reasonably priced. And, once again, you know because these are Pottery Barn, they are very high quality so you are going to get a great lifespan out of what you are purchasing. Staff here is friendly, but often times are confined to the register area. If you are looking for some help, you might need to hunt around a bit to find someone. However, once you do, they are always very helpful and will go above and beyond to help you out.

Apparently I interrupted her morning when she had to ring me up and bag my items. There was absolutely no line and no one in the store and she rudely pointed to the line que and said "the line starts over there but I guess I can help you !?" Then said nothing to me except " your receipts in the bag" .. Honestly someone needs to train Monique on customer service. I probably won't be back if this is the new trend in employees at Pottery Barn!

I actually recently found them as my mom had been raving about this store and took me in over the weekend. The store is super cute inside. Clothing, jewelry and some small accessories. A great store with a little bit of everything for us ladies. I found their clothing selection to be fun and slightly western forward as a theme but they also had great regular prints and styles. Their jewelry was pretty and I liked some of their gift accessories like hats and passport tags etc. The store was clean and spacious enough to walk around without bumping into people. Staff were very nice, bubbly and welcoming. I liked that they were the perfect amount of attentive but also gave you some space to shop. Didn't have my weird vibes of being watched etc lol. Multiple staff on shift which was nice as one gal was walking the floor talking about sales while another could attend to customers wanting to pay. I walked away with a super yummy smelling rollerball perfume and a Christmas gift for a friend. Prices were reasonable with the sale, so it was a good time to stop in. Definitely check this store out if you're looking for cute clothing and accessories.

And the sandwiches are made on Levain bread so you know it's good. The roast beef was delicious as well. There's plenty of outdoor seating and it was such a peaceful environment right off the freeway. There's also a gorgeous huge home and gift shop that was fun to stroll through.

They have a nice outdoor seating area, although you can hear the traffic going by. The sweet porridge was tasty when it finally arrived, although the presentation was a little disappointing. It looked a bit like a sad face on the plate. I also expected a variety of fruit on top, but there was only one type of fruit. The biggest issue, though, was the candied pecans. They tasted rancid, and it wasn't just one bad nut. I had three bites of the pecans before giving up and started picking them out of the dish. That really detracted from the meal. If the pecans had been fresh, I would have enjoyed the dish a lot more.

I rarely write negative reviews, but after a year of dealing with this sofa, I feel other buyers…read moreshould know about my experience. From the beginning, the seat cushions have been much too soft and have never provided proper support. When I sit on the sofa, I sink deeply into the cushions instead of being supported. The lack of firmness causes my hips to drop, leaving my lower back unsupported. It has become so uncomfortable that I have gotten up with significant back pain, and on one occasion I was literally doubled over after sitting on it. The company has replaced the foam cushions twice, but neither replacement solved the problem. The sofa continues to sag, and the seating support has never been what I expected from a new piece of furniture. The most disappointing part has been the lack of a permanent resolution. After multiple repair attempts, I expected someone to take ownership of the problem, thoroughly inspect the sofa, determine whether the issue is the foam, the cushion construction, or the support system underneath, and make it right. Instead, I still have a sofa that is uncomfortable to sit on despite repeated attempts to fix it. A sofa is a major investment, and I expected it to provide lasting comfort and support. Unfortunately, that has not been my experience. They have not stepped up or reached out to me to resolve this matter. I see that David L, the owner, stated 'glad to make your shopping experience pleasant. We look forward to seeing you again.' Well, my shopping experience wasn't pleasant and they made no attempt to rectify the problem and they definitely won't see me again.

A lot of thought went into what and where to buy. We are so thankful we chose this place! First off, David and Jesse are knowledgeable and professional, and it's obvious they take pride in what they do and have great concern and care for their customers. It's not just a job for them! Jesse delivered the couch himself 3 days after we bought it. He was efficient and careful, and did it all with smiles and professionalism. Through no fault of the store, however, the couch we bought had a manufacturer defect and so did the replacement that was first sent. It took us about a week and a half to finally get the couch we paid for. With the impact on us financially due to the amount we invested in it, of course we were more than concerned and worried. But, through the whole situation, David and Jesse were prompt to get answers for us and were on the phone frequently with the manufacturer on our behalf. David called us several times himself to update and reassure us. He had great concern for us, and wanted to make sure we were happy and satisfied with our purchase. You just don't get this kind of customer service from a big box store, and especially not from the likes of Amazon. I always wondered why this small shop on the corner of Seaward and Main has been there for what seems like forever. Now I know why! I highly recommend The Couch Potato, and David and Jesse for your furniture needs - trustworthy, friendly, professional, and caring service. We will come here again when the need arises. Thank you, David and Jesse!
