Great value--everything I noticed seemed discounted from full price. Huge selection of things for your home--artificial plants, birdhouses, plant containers, bedding in every color, food. So many things! I went up and down every aisle due to their extensive choices. The checkout was easy and the workers were helpful. read more

Always a hit or miss at every home goods store. Finally after two years I was able to track down the viral cast iron pans I passed up on before. They really need more Halloween at this store every year. I'm not sure what volume this store does but it feels a lot smaller and less merchandise than others in the area. I'm curious to know if they will stick around or have the same fate as the mall next door. Homegood prices have increased in the recent years but they've always been a little pricey. read more

HomeGoods - Viral cast iron coffin pans - Discount Store Near Me - San Rafael, California

I like coming to this store and browse. Its fun to check out the kitchen supplies and the domestic! Their sheets and towels are very good quality. We also just bought a new area rug and love it. One thing that I don't like is the scents. I don't know if they do it on purpose or not but that reason keeps me from giving them 5 stars. read more

HomeGoods - The boys love this store. - Discount Store Near Me - San Rafael, California

Upset with my first trip to a Homegoods in San Rafael. I would have given this place 5 stars for the cleanliness, overwhelming things to buy as I was a kid in a candy store being very excited. Maybe because I was an easy target the bad customers wanted my cart items and wanted me to be frantic which they got their wish. Then 2 things destroyed my visit here. I left my cart with some cookies that only had one left on the shelf so I was excited . I made the mistake of leaving my cart on corner of store and did a sprint to explore each aisle one by one as I wanted to see what this store had and having a cart with me would slow me down. I also took a day off to head up north for an event and this was supposed to be a quick hour stop. After I was done about 20 minutes, I went back to look for my cart and it was gone. I doubted myself and backtracked where I was. I am sure others in store was wondering what I was doing holding a bottle and a box of cookies in my hand running around. I was getting extremely frustrated and mad how someone stole my cart and took my items! I decided to give up and I wasted more time here than expected which made me late to my next destination. 2. As I gave up my search for the cart I was only able to use my brand new $25 gift card on $15 worth of items I was able to find, since I lost the other half. The cashier called me and had problem ringing up my gift card. She reset everything and gave me my receipt and didn't return my gift card. I asked where's my card and she said it was empty. I was shocked and confused. I didn't know what to do. I didn't keep my original gift card envelope and I never scratched the code behind the card either. My mind was not in a right place as I was hungry and late for lunch. So I left. She had a lady behind her watching her 2 cashiers and she never came forward to help. So staff here are not efficient. Later as I went another hour north and finally ate lunch to be less dizzy, I studied my receipt and it said it had about $15 left on gift card. If I do go back, later will they believe me as I already left? I give up. This is ridiculous and I am too tired. 3. So much items in this store that it was dangerous as times were stuffed on shelves very tight and when you grab one item, then everything falls. It happened to two people and I helped them pick up the stuff and put back on shelf. So these 3 key points brought down my original 5 stars which I would have given. Sorry store, I did enjoy your unique and cute items here. read more

Great store, big selection of merchandise, helpful personnel. Over the years I've purchased so many great things, at great prices.

Absolutely LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this store! Wish we had one closer!!! SO many items of everything imaginable to choose from.

First time here. Was excited to find a store in the greater bay area (not the East bay). I had my list all ready to have a shopping spree. Grabbed my cart and off I went. More than 1/3 of the store is dedicated to Christmas. Maybe even more. ALL the shelves are overstocked, so stuff is falling off or laying on the floor. LOTS of merchandise was scattered all over the store and not necessarily in the right place. Which means there are a lot of go-backs. I could have filled 1/2 a cart just with this. I ran into at least a 1/2 dozen carts strewn in the aisles, some had merchandise and none were attended by a shopper. I had to be very careful where I stepped so I didn't trip, again, do to the amount of merchandise on the floor. After about an hour and seeking out every aisle for my 20 items, I returned the empty cart to the front of the store and walked out. It was akin to Ross downtown San Francisco on steroids in respect to the horrible condition the store was in. I truly did not expect this in "Marin" of all places. So I won't be wasting my gas to drive over from the city for this. The one in Sand City outside of Monterey is FAB. Next trip to Monterey, I shall spend my hard earned money elsewhere. Very, very, disappointed ! read more

An excellent variety, less crowd compared to others I have been to. Very helpful store employee helped to load a storage ottoman into the car. read more

I am an aficionado of Homes Goods but THIS particular Homes Goods store is a shambles, with merchandise dumped everywhere. There is no discernible order and definitely no merchandising. I'm just guessing but I would say this store needs new experienced management. read more

This Homegoods is located in a plaza in San Rafael that looks like it's part of a bygone area, but unfortunately there are very few HomeGoods options close to SF. Still, this location came through for some Halloween decorations this year. My partner and I visited here in late September and Homegoods had a generous selection of Halloween items (though Xmas was already sneaking in). As to be expected, it was less decorations than it was housewares (think blankets, table cloths, etc.) but there were plenty of fun ghosts, skeletons, witches, black cats, and the like. Otherwise, the store has a lot of affordable kitchen and general home items that can help fill in gaps. The line can get a little long depending on when you're there, but they were pretty responsive with adding more cashiers. If this area is close to you, probably worth checking out. If not, I wouldn't go out of the way. read more

The manager could not be bothered helping get a price for a rug I found. They told the associate to find some other person and have them do it. Well, that person was on break so I waited the 10 minutes and came back. The person had not addressed the price inquiry, so the cashier radioed the associate again...the manager over heard since he was unpacking $1.99 store tote bags (one at a time mind you) at the checkout line, so they then radioed the associate themself and asked them to find a tag for a rug that was $79. The manager was unpacking reusable tote bags one at a time versus helping a customer...and they knew the price!!!! :-( HORRIBLE MANAGEMENT. read more

Older male clerk would not help bag items. He made comments about my purchases that were unnecessary. When I shop I am in a good mood and he totally ruined it. He wanted me to bag my items that's ridiculous. read more

Store is very messy. Needs more organization. The young guy manager is not nice to the workers. I overheard him talk down on an employee.

We went to Home Goods and looked around the store. They had a lot of Halloween stuff out. They were clean in the store. My friend found a lot of snoopy stuff at this store. The staff was friendly and my favorite area was stocked with different foods. I would recommend going to this store. If in the area again I would stop in to see what is available. read more

Awful place, completely disorganized and depressing. Their stuff is junk. The staff is not trained so if you have an issue they pretty much ignore you until you go away. I guess that's what you get when you're in a store filled with junk. Did I mention it's depressing? read more

A friend of mine swears by this store, and they do have low prices. But they just seem to be low quality on many items and very messy/disorganized. I'm sorry Bed Bath & Beyond didn't survive. read more

I went to homegoods at San Rafael , I normally go to the Petaluma homegoods. Until I found out about a home goods in San Rafael. I had high hopes but the experience was terrible. I did not receive any help when I asked a young employee female. I believe her name was ashly. She rolled her eyes while scanning merchandise. NOT HELPFUL AT ALL. She was on her phone and just stared at me. I have never experienced someone so rude! Petaluma is usually friendly! If anything take your business their . I would give this store a Zero rating if that was an option. read more

A friend of mine recently took it upon herself to remodel my living room. According to her, it needed a "woman's touch." I told her that I had a very tiny budget for any kind of interior re-design. She assured me that for under $500 she could guarantee me a whole "Trading Spaces/Queer Eye for the Straight Guy" kind of experience. Needless to say, I had to take her up on the challenge. Sure enough, she came in gave my old living room a much-needed cosmetic make-over (and for just $440). So how did she accomplish this? Simple answer: she purchased stuff at HomeGoods in San Rafael. She got me a rolling bar-cart; a number of colorful throw-pillows and home accents (eg candle sticks, a set of decorative antlers; vases; table lamps; and some other creative knick-knacks). The end result is a living room that I'm now proud to live in. No joke (see attached photo). My friend gave me an apartment make-over for under $500, and it's mostly thanks to the fine goods she purchased at HomeGoods! I can't wait to see what she and HomeGoods do for my kitchen and deck!! read more

Most of the "stuff" I buy here I have been very happy with my selection but last winter I bought a folded throw blanket and kept it folded and today the blanket unfolded to this - this orange stain and pulled yarn area - ouch.

I was just told by my wife how the cashier at this location tried to trick her into getting a store credit card. "Let me give you 10% off" - she said no, "Just pull out your driver's license and I'll get you 10% off!" then he kept asking 3x, and then got rude and tried to shame her. Oh, HELLLLLL NO.... A warning: If you try this tactic with me I PROMISE I will embarrass your ass in front of the whole store. read more

I love this store and go often, but I could do without the strong push to sign up for the Homegoods credit card. No means no and asking more than 3x with one check out is unnecessary. read more

super store:One of their best stores. We needed new linens for a new guest room and went in thinking it would be 30 minutes and $30. Wrong! They were have a markdown event and we found super bedroom, bathroom and kitchen deals! Great mirrors....and a huge gourmet and candy dept. I shall return. We sometimes pop,in pre movie, across the mall and pick up treats. read more

Laziest store manager...let the checkout line grow and wouldn't jump on to help customers checkout. The cashier who rang us up couldn't tell the difference between a $10 and a $5 bill and had a difficult time fixing her error. Manager didn't really help her either even though he was standing right next to her. Such a big waste of time. read more

Usually HomeGoods to me is like a candy store to a child! I was severely disappointed with this messy location. It resembles a sad ross while the prices are 2-3x higher. At 6pm on a weekday, the store was almost empty and very disorganized, giving to the apocalyptic feeling. I was almost expecting walking dead to start jumping out of the halloween decor section. Even the staff seemed super indifferent. I still made out with a beautiful hamper basket for $20 but it took a long time to choose one as they were sprung out over several different isles.I hope this place gets better because I'd be a regular! read more

I've my last receipt from here taped up onto my wall. RIP Home goods store I wrote beneath it when Carona started. I knew it'd be hard for me. How hard I never imagined... When you're a hoarder, this is your place your jam your fix. When you own 8 peelers and find a reason to buy a 9th-well this one is serrated and juliennes green beans AND peels? Oh that's a must have add to the collection. Name the kitchen item and I've got it. May have used it only once some of these but I've got it just in case. Who doesn't need a prong tool for caper removal? Or the ability to sous vide that rough cut. The cute mug with the inside lined yellow that says "peep show"-get it? Easter. Chickens. Yellow eggs. I don't buy clothes I buy kitchen utensils and all other necessary items for a well-stocked kitchen. Stop scoffing. Go and you'll see. Need pillows and towels or candles and caramels? Home Goods has got you covered. I could give tours I've been so often. Lotions and potions and bathroom storage and cookie sheets and knives and little kids toys-yes not a spelling error-and doggie treats and and and. Having a party? Placemats glasses tablecloths funky candelabras interesting olive oils and pastas! And here's the best part: the selection is not only interesting but the prices are fantastic. If you want it but find it hard to justify buying it as you might not use it that often, well it's so inexpensive that you don't have to feel any guilt in doing so. And guilt with the Jews please, I've plenty already. Miss you Home Goods store. So so so much. More than anything. I clearly get some kind of fix going there. I suspect you just might too. read more

A nice way to pass the time and occasionally stumble upon a good find for the home. The staff are not good about ensuring the checkout line moves quickly. They are good about visiting with each other and neglecting the customers. read more

OMG!! The worst managed Home Good in the world! Waited in line with 39 other customers for 45 minutes to ck out. Only 1... yes 1 checker!! While other employees went about the store ignoring the severe traffic jam. Never going back!! These employees just don't care and that goes all the way to the top. Poorly managed!! BIGTIME!!!!!!!!!!!!!! read more

This homegoods is very big compared to the other locations I've been to. Its not really organized at all. For example, the patio decor and outdoor stuff is randomly in like 10 different aisles across the store. There was a mess in many of the aisles so my basket couldn't even go down. Positives is they have a lot of larger furniture pieces and some higher end items. Staff was friendly. Huge selection of throw pillows too. read more

Standard this is your standard HomeGoods. It has a great selection and the store is very large and has pretty much anything you could ever want or need. The furniture selection is hit or miss and they usually only have 1 of anything so if you need a set or a pair of something, you might wanna go somewhere else! read more

San Rafael just scored something great! Home Goods is a great place to get unique home furnishings and decor for truly low prices. Forget going to IKEA in Emeryville for cheap junk that will soon fall apart. Forget going to Pier One Imports - nothing they have really stands out anymore, and it's no surprise they keep closing locations around Marin to re-open, and close again. Heck, even Cost Plus is going to have a run for their money and would be better off focusing on their wine and imported foods instead. Home Goods is a division of Marshalls (which can be good for clothes if you look hard) and TJMaxx (I've never been a fan, but they must do it for some people). This location was formerly an oversized Rite Aid store from the late 1960's that was scheduled for demolition when Northgate did it's 3rd major renovation in 2009. Instead of it being bulldozed for parking, the place sat empty for five years until Northgate *FINALLY* got something right and put this here. The place is filled with tons of stuff that you WANT or have never seen before - and they have it all at great prices. One tip - the front parking lot is completely full often, so, (as in my case), if you get a larger piece of furniture like a corner accent table - WATCH OUT - the shopping cart you are hauling towards Macy's (where there is plenty of parking because they pretty much suck) - will STOP right at the yellow line. **Screech!!*** Me "Crap. Okay, I'll grab the artwork, soap dispenser, and small printer table & make a run for it across the parking lot while I leave my new bedroom corner nightstand in the cart at the yellow line. If anyone tries to steal my new awesome piece of furniture in the 2 minutes I am running and driving back to Home Goods - something BAD is going to go down right at the yellow line! Sure enough, crisis averted. And my bedroom is finally almost redone for half the cost. See ya later Bed, Bath and Beyond! read more

I rarely make it out the door with my merchandise. Lines are very long and 2 people checking most of the time. I have returned toys with no problem. The wood toys have a bad chemical smell and I had to return them. ( not Melissa and Doug). read more

This store is quite nice and my mom loves shopping at these home decorative stores. Although, what we don't like is someone pushing us so heavily to get a credit card under our name. It felt very overwhelming and I felt like I was constantly getting followed by a salesperson, while we were shopping along the aisles. Aside from that, one of the workers helped me pull down a nightstand I was thinking of buying, but the piece of furniture fell on his head and the drawer broke from underneath. I hope he is okay! read more

NOTE: The Roof Fell in recently...Improvements are being made. If you love Marshall's and TJ MAxx- you will adore this Home Goods store. It is consistently well stocked, well organized, great markdowns and very impressive merchandise.It is hard for me to refrain from picking up just a few trinkets, decor items or gifts. In keeping with Home Goods. standards- the store is very well lit, good staff, easy parking. read more

We live in Terralinda and this is a great addition to our neighborhood. The closest thing to Gone Goods would be bed bath and beyond but that's in Larkspur and is considerably more expensive. The display of items is a little haphazard so you have to hunt around a bit to find what you're looking for. It sure beats the empty storefront that had been here for five years. read more

Cute store. Inexpensive, clean and a good atmosphere all around. The cashier I just had was super nice, and respectful. She had a good vibe all around. Only 1 thing peeved me just a tad bit, was a younger gentleman with dark hair, who works for the store seemed a little unfriendly and not that helpful. Sorry you had to work on superbowl Sunday dude, but that's the way the cookie crumbles sometimes. I will visit here again. read more

TLDR; Great prices, nice things, shitty store, shitty people This is one of those places that left me conflicted. I got what I needed but I left dissatisfied. That doesn't usually happen. The prices at HomeGoods were overly-reasonable. I can't argue there. I love paying less and getting good quality stuff. Being from LA there was no shortage of that there, but after moving to Marin, I lost sight of that idea because discount stores are few and far between. This reminded me of what it was like to be able to furnish an entire room for a couple hundred bucks. I will be back. There is a lot of work to be done in my home. I fell in love with a lot of the stuff I saw here. Here's my experience: I walked in and was amazed at how big this store is and how much stuff it had. They even had some really good munchies for sale. I knew when I saw it that I'm gonna need a cart. I get one and realize there was no path to drive this thing lol I was here for a set of curtains, a rod and possibly a rug if I see one I like. I kinda took the scenic route and navigated my way around to the window dressings by avoiding aisles with people and debris. I finally made it and became "that lady blocking the whole aisle with a cart". Sorry. The selection of curtains was a mixture of good and bad. There was no organization whatsoever. There was stuff piled up on the floor and things hung up randomly. I did find a few sets of nice looking sheer curtains for $16.99 each. Like I said great prices! The rods were $13.99. Some were broken and shitty looking and also thrown into a pile on the floor in the aisle. I found a few nice ones, picked one out and moved on. I left the window dressing aisle feeling like... you know when you use a public bathroom and it's all shitty but you have to use it anyway, then someone is waiting outside to use it next. You're kinda like "sorry but I didn't do it" and you know they think it was you. As I was making my way around the furniture to the check out line, I saw a nice rug. I wasn't sold yet because I saw online that Michael's across the street has rugs. I get to the check out. Gloria is helping me. She is scanning my items and I ask her if she knows whether this rod comes with the screws and whatever I need to hang it. It says on the box I need a screwdriver/drill, but I wasn't sure about the screws. She looks at me like I just lit up a crackpipe in her store. "The screws????? To hang it???? I don't THINK so." Whoa. Did I just enter the Twilight zone? "Yeah you know the screws?" She asks another guy behind the counter next to her. He's like "I have no idea but you can open it and check" Fair enough. We open the box, it does come with the screws. I had to ask him if he could close it back up though because you know how it is to put something back in the box. Great, so moving on. I go across the street and they have only outdoor rugs. I come back to HomeGoods about 15 min later. I ask Gloria if she can help me get a rug. I go stand next to the rug I like and couple min later someone shows up. I can't remember his name so we'll call him "Rug Guy With Better Shit To Do". I tell him I like this rug. He starts to take it down. Before he does, I ask him if they have another one like it, because this one has some crusty shit all over it. I could see the fibers all matted up in one area, in the shape of a handprint and when I touched it I immediately wanted to burn my hand off. He gives me the Gloria look. He says "No." I say "You don't have ANYTHING similar at all?" "No." "Hmm." I stand silently for about 3 seconds thinking about how to proceed. Rug Guy With Better Shit To Do says "Soooo, do you still need me or can I go?" I've never been asked that before by someone in customer service. He didn't even care that there was some funk on this rug and someone might buy it, not knowing that. Or that I obviously needed help figuring out a solution to this problem. I tell him to wait and look through more rugs. He says "Well, there's this one" It's exactly the same rug only smaller. Why didn't he mention it when I asked if he had anything similar? Then he shows me another one that is larger. Why didn't he.... nevermind. I found one that'll do and was the right size. He got it for me and Rug Guy With Better Shit To Do, let's not meet again. read more
