Feels like friends just catching up. They have made me feel like an inconvenience on MULTIPLE occasions for asking basic customer service questions or requests - like, can i have a receipt even though I'm paying with cash?? Oh you want me to do my job? Ethically run a business?? Ugh I guess I can...talk about making people feel difficult. Sorry it's such an inconvenience for me to hand over my hard earned money to support YOUR business. They have even made side comments while looking at items like wow I could have sold that to someone else while you were looking at that. Honestly feels like getting bullied shopping here. Seems like you genuinely don't want to run a business or need to take running a business 101.

Overall, I enjoyed visiting this store. I recommend you visit.

They sell very cute little things, such as dining ware, snacks, cards, jewelry, towel etc. I enjoyed walking around. I saw a cute bracelet in the store, but I was unsure about it. After I went home, I found out that I really like it. I called them and requested them to set it aside, so I can stop by on the following day to purchase it. The lady who answered the phone was super kind and she place the bracelet I like on hold. When I go to pick up the bracelet, they wrapped it very nicely too. Thank you for this wonderful experience.

What a gorgeous experience!! If I could give many more stars, I would. One Cup Studio is a perfect…read morelittle haven tucked away in Sierra Madre filled with some of the most beautiful pieces - hand crafted with so much skill and absolute care, Yau's big heart shines in every cup. Having seen his work just walking by, and small run-ins with his work at fairs and local restaurants, I decided to approach him with a near-impossible request -- I am the youngest of 8, and my father passed away in 2021. He drank coffee from the same mug every morning for over 40 years, but only one of us was able to take home that piece of him. It was a unique style, as all pottery is, so I've been sitting on this project for a few years. Yao was not only up to the challenge, but we discussed timeline (not important; I said they'd be ready when they're ready as long as it's by Christmas) and agreed that he would give it a try! Several weeks later, he let me know that he was still working but had finally nailed the unique shape. Several weeks later then, he let me know that he has finished them, but would like to keep trying because the unique (40+ year old glaze) was difficult to replicate and he'd like to try again. Three batches of eight later, Yao produced some of the most beautiful mugs I could have imagined. My family is so grateful, and I can say with full confidence that I will recommend One Cup Studio as long as Sierra Madre is lucky enough to have such a wonderful shop!! We've got a few of his original pieces in our home; his bud vases are precious and his bowls and tea cups are so pretty - but I will be forever grateful for the best Christmas gift I've ever pulled off - and I couldn't have done it without Yao's care and mastery!!!

One Cup Studio (est 2024) is a cute new ceramic shop and pottery studio in Sierra Madre. It is…read moreowned and operated by the talented Mr. Yau. This store sells a wide variety of ceramics such as mugs, cups, vases, chopstick holders, spoons, bowls, and tiny animals. Its interior design and layout were chick and spacious. Similarly, its atmosphere was very relaxing and inviting. All ceramic displays elicits colorful creativity and skills. Yau, originally from HK, has an extensive background and experience in artistic ceramics and glass. Given my genuine curiosity and interest in pottery, I asked him questions on his beautiful ceramic work. Staff was affable, knowledgeable and professional. Prices seem fair but depends on the design. Finding parking was easy as an apple pie. Overall, I enjoyed ogling at the hundreds of ceramics on display and will definitely come back. I highly recommend you visit.

World Market Derby Day Done Right…read more Stopped into World Market in Pasadena to put together a last minute Derby Day spread, and somehow walked out with a whole vibe. Between the colorful tins of sardines the preserved lemon ones are a standout and smoked salmon that feels a little fancier than it should for a casual afternoon, it all paired perfectly with a chilled bottle of prosecco. Simple, a little indulgent, and honestly kind of perfect. What made it even better was the experience cashier was genuinely friendly and helpful, the kind of easy interaction that makes you want to come back. Left with everything I didn't know I needed... and a Derby Day spread that felt effortlessly elevated.

There was a guy who was letting a customer out the door so I had asked if I can still pick up my online order and he told me no because they were already closed. I went back to my car and another worker, Dolly, walked up to me and said she can help me. I was so surprised that she went out of her way to walk to my car to let me know that. She found my order quickly and I was in and out within 2 minutes. She was very friendly and had great customer service. Definitely need more workers like her! :) thank you!!

As a…read moreconstruction and design professional, I had to source materials and design several bathrooms -- selecting tile, coordinating ground colors, finishes, and all the necessary materials. Oscar truly went above and beyond. He was patient, knowledgeable, and incredibly helpful throughout the entire process. He took the time to help me choose everything I needed and made sure the materials coordinated perfectly. His customer service and attention to detail made a big difference. We did experience a hiccup with one of the cashiers, which caused a significant inconvenience. However, Seaan stepped in immediately, handled the situation professionally, and provided the appropriate credits. He took care of business exactly the way a strong manager should -- fair, solution-oriented, and respectful. Because of how they handled everything, I will absolutely continue giving them our business. Great customer service and true professionalism go a long way. Highly recommend this team!

Leonora have THE artistic eye for the most beautiful fall foliage. I would say that the florals were the highlight of my wedding, and I still smile looking through photos of all the beautiful flowers from my special day. While I am not well-versed in flowers and plants, Lorie still knew exactly what we wanted each meeting and was able to bring the appropriate vase and plant/flower examples. I think after the second meeting, I decided to "trust the artist and trust the process" and let her exercise her vision within our budget - she definitely delivered above and beyond! When I saw my bouquet and florals, I literally gasped in joy because I loved them so much! While the actual wedding day was a whirlwind, I vividly recalled I would look at the floral details throughout the day and it would bring a smile to my face. I wished I could take alllll the flowers, arrangements, and centerpieces home at the end of the event because I loved them so much. I would highly recommend her services for your events.
