After I change into my new suit and put my items in my new purse (that I also purchased), I noticed the tag was still on the purse so I went to get it cut off. I then got accused of stealing the bag because the sensor was still on... how was I supposed to know that?! I then got a half-assed apology from the employee who FORGOT to take the sensor off. This small interaction really rubbed me the wrong way. Thanks for the cute swimsuit but that's about it!

Had a super fun ladies' outing today at this truly special place in San Luis Obispo where you can…read morehave a private party to customize your own hat, along with some of your best friends. Imagine having a hat that no one else on the planet has?? The experience included champagne and two different plates of charcuterie!! Everyone used their creativity to build their own final product. What a wonderful concept!! Kate's staff spent considerable time with each of us to help make our individual accessory choices come together to produce our amazing, individual creations. With choices ranging from feathers, to pins, ribbons, leather cords, glitzy chains, animal print bands, playing cards, strips of lace and flowers...you can go as simple or ornate as you want. Each person pays for their hat and its accessories (so the more ornate you go, the more you'll pay and keeping the decor more simple will correlate to a lower price). There are hat styles and sizes to fit everyone...colors from cream, hot pink, blue, shades of brown, green, dusty rose, grey, black and cinnamon. You can even add initials in a 'brand' to your hat. The coolest thing is that these are privately booked events, so the focus is on you and your group (no walk-ins to disturb or distract from your experience). I can't recommend this experience highly enough and hope they stay in business for many years to come (as I suspect the next nearest state that offers something like this may be Texas)!

The downtown beachfront promenade in Avila Beach sports a small, but mighty array of businesses…read morewith merchandise geared to beach-goers. Flip flops, t-shirts, straw hats, and easy cover ups are heavily featured. Footseas fits in to that vibe, and takes it up a notch. The exterior walls of the shop set a seafaring tone with painted murals. Window displays feature some of their favored items, like hats, which drew me in. I didn't end up finding a new hat to love, but I did enjoy browsing all the color-themed racks of ladies' clothes. The store goes back much deeper than i expected, so there was a lot to see. I ended up selecting an adorable mermaid tee for our granddaughter, plus a fun top for myself, and a printed scarf. Visually, the displays offered a pleasing palette of visual treats. A new sales associate was undergoing training, so I got double attention at check out time. Deducting one star as there were several other items I liked, but my size was sold out. I'd still plan to check them out on a return visit.

The Sports Forum never disappoints! About a month ago I stopped in Pismo before heading home and…read moreper usual made a stop into The Sports Forum. It was pretty early on a Sunday and at the time they were one of the few shops that were open. I began talking to the employee and lo and behold the employee was the owner. I mentioned to her that since I was a kid my family would make annual trips to Pismo and we always came into her shop because it was "cool" and wasn't like anything we had in the Valley. This tradition has been going on for 39 years now. I mentioned to her that since having my own son (9y/o) he loves to go in and check out the merch. He had been looking for a Joe Montana jersey and during this particular visit and the one prior, the store was out of stock. The owner was nice enough to ask for my phone number and said when they got a new shipment she would let me know. Well, she held true to her word and contacted me about a week ago. We conversed via text and I asked for shipping details, price, etc and she was gracious enough to ship me the jersey and it arrived within a couple of days. The point of this post is that The Sports Forum is unlike any other sports memorabilia store you'll fined in or out of the area. The fact that the owner went out of her way to contact me and take the time to ship me the jersey speaks volumes of her and her business. I'd shop here or contact the Forum before going to a large chain store (i.e. LIDS) for their uniqueness, hospitality and prices. Thank you again and we hope to pop in soon!

We always stop by on our way down south.

This place truly went above and beyond, even when they didn't have to!…read more I recently stopped by their Pismo location and picked up a hat, but after I left, I realized the fit wasn't quite right. On my way back home, I decided to swing by their San Luis Obispo location to see if they could help me out. Even though I bought it at a different spot, they exchanged it for me without a single fuss. That level of flexibility and genuine customer care is exactly why I've been a long-time customer. The Sports Forum has earned my business for life! If you're looking for great gear and staff that actually treats you right, this is the place to go. At the end of the day you get what you pay for!

I also LOVE giving businesses a clean slate and a shot myself when Yelp reviews seem to be a bit unfair or hypercritical. I am GLAD that I did. The owners here were patient and gracious with their time, showing me the three levels of NFL jerseys up close and personal. They let me try them on and I was able to get the right jersey in the right size, without the wait of shipping AND with the pleasure of keeping it local. I walked out with an Elite Raiders jersey 89 and a smile. With over 20 years in this business, the owners have put in a long time and know their inventory. With the mall adding more stores and football gearing up, I hope they continue to receive more traffic and business. Great option for us herein SM!
