I bought a Lids, NY Yankees, bucket hat on line that was supposedly one size fits all. When I received it, it was way too small! I came to this store to see about an exchange/credit. I spoke with a Manager named Marlon and explained my dilemma. Before I could even finish explaining myself (had original box and email receipt), he kept telling me that there was nothing he could do for me and offered no alternative suggestions. Mind you I have purchased over a dozen hats from the very same store and was a member of their discount program in the past. I feel the manager could have been friendlier and offer me constructive options. Marlon could use some additional managerial/customer service training. I'll never frequent that store again read more

Great customer service from the manager (didn't get her name) but really appreciative of her help and understanding! Thanks!!

Excellent work all employees Excellent work Excellent work Excellent work All employees read more

Stopped by this Lids as they were having a BOGO 50% off and loved the selection of hats they had. I ended up getting a black and cream corduroy Dodgers hat which I had never seen before. The worker who was working (I wish I caught his name but it was Friday 10/04/24 around 3/4PM) was so friendly and nice! Even in that short interaction, he was such a good vibe! Definitely will stop by for more hats in the future. Thanks Lids! read more

Most of these places should just stick to selling hats only! They should not offer embroidery services number one. They always have a attitude and don't ever wanna do it number two. They don't know how to do it. Not sure why they offer it. Number three communication is horrible, which is crucial when getting custom stitching on a hat you just purchased. Staff at lids Lakewood center, fanz Lakewood center they use the same staff. Also Cerritos same thing. Most of these young guys need to understand that you're working at a hardware store where people walk in asking for help based on services at the store offers. You shouldn't have to walk in and deal with people's attitudes who don't want to be at work and this goes for all the stores. They need to have this conversation prior to hiring these people and explain to them that this is a job with people are gonna talk to you and ask you for help.!!! we don't need to walk in and see faces and deal with this. Just a basic consumer, looking to buy a hat.!! Nothing else!! read more

Came in on 9/27/25 at 4:30pm because the multiple signs in the display windows say "BUY ONE GET THE OTHER FOR 50% OFF!" Picked two baseball hats and went to register. As I'm looking forward to paying $75 for 2 hats the cashier lady tells me that the one hat is not 50 percent off. I asked "why, not that's what it says on your signs?" She then tells me with her full chest out "cause one team is in the playoffs." Baffled 100%, I then entertain her by asking "the sign doesn't say that?" She said "yes it does". She then points out a line I can't see on the bottom of the 50 percent off sign cause it's such small print, that some exceptions do apply. Then giggles and tells me "inflation". I'm 52 and I know BS when I smell it. I would've respected her more if she just said "yes I know, I can see where that could be misinterpreted and misleading". Hell yes it is! I know BS when I smell it. Total false advertisement, waste of a trip driving, time and just another kid aged ploy to get you into the store only to be told the bad news at the counter. All in hopes that people accept this ok, brush it off while they're there and just settle to pay full price for both hats. In addition, prices have increased by 44%. Hats were $34 and now..$49 each. Oh and 50 percent off the second hat only if the teams are not in the playoffs. In reality, go to Lids and pay $109 dollars for 2 baseball hats. Completely unacceptable and they should be ashamed of themselves to have to trick people just to come in. I'm so irritated. read more

I love this place I am 100% a hat guy and this place has all the new stuff... Great customer service ! read more

worst customer service ever called asking for a hat the person answering the phone didn't even check just replied with sold out amargado much can't even do his job read more

Don't waste your time going here for the Kobe patches. They said other locations might do them but not here. We tried calling ahead to ask but they don't pick up their phone. We also waited over 20 minutes in line with ONE person ahead of us who was chit chatting with the staff about how they should profit off Kobe's death (so gross), and no one bothered to talk to us until my newborn started fussing, just to tell us that they won't help us. Won't be coming back with customer service being so horrible. read more

Terrible customer service. I stood there for a while and no one asked if I needed help. When I finally asked for help myself the people working there were acting as if I was bothering them or inconveniencing them. Two different employees did this. I ended up going to a different sports store and purchased three hats (over $100 sale) I've worked in retail and I am very empathetic towards retail workers. This was honestly just bulls*it. Completely unacceptable behavior for anyone working in any kind of customer service/retail setting. read more

Lids Locker Room is truly an athletic hat facility for what you want and when you want it!! I am so happy that the Dodger hats they have are the ones I love and truly need in the L.A. Blue realm!! When I head in, I look at every one I need to bring me up to my Dodger entity!! Plus, they for a small charge, will create a team, player or event on the hat you are focused on!! As a baby-boomer, my favorite pitcher is Sandy Koufax!! In my Dodger museum, I have a true amount of items regarding him. When I went to Lid, I had them print his name on my new hat and made me truly Dandy of Sandy!! Bottomline: Arriving into Lids, you can find every team, hat-style and color as an athletic resource!! As a retired teacher and educator, I grade them with an A++!! read more

I needed my new business caps embroidered and Brandon Scott Soto went above and beyond his responsibilities to deliver the finished products. Brandon advised me that he only had 2 of the caps I needed in stock, to be embroidered. However, he informed me that he would call around to other stores to check their inventory. Not only that, Brandon advised me that he would be willing to stop by other store(s), on his way to work (OFF THE CLOCK), to pick up the needed caps to complete my order. To top it all off, Brandon completed my entire order within 24 hours, from the purchase to the final embroidery. I'd most definitely recommend Lids for your embroidery and cap needs. If you choose the Cerritos location, go directly to Brandon and you'll experience the SAME LEVEL OF SERVICE That I experienced FOR YOURSELF! read more

I always have great service here. I ordered a jersey online and it was too big. Called the store to see if they accept online returns (since they don't sell jerseys in store) and they did! So I stopped by after work and got a refund with no problem at all. I always purchase my hats here and I recommend anyone to get the lids membership! Its only $5 and gets you discounts on clothes and other things on their website! Worth it! read more

andrew i think his name was helped me out fast and helped me picked what i needed and did the embroidery under 30 minutes good employee!

Customer service was pretty bad. Walked in yesterday on a slow Monday and was literally the only one in the store. Was looking around for a good 15 minutes while the 3 employees just stood around conversing amongst themselves. When I finally did inquire into what they had in their inventory, the girl at the register rolled her eyes and proceeded to go in the back to check, leaving me waiting for another 10 minutes without coming out. Walked out of the store by then. read more

Big shout out to the manager victor! I had a wonderful experience with this location. And victor really helped me out because I needed to return my rams jersey but lost the receipt. He went well out of his way to help me with this transaction. This was something most employees would just ignore but not victor. Really appreciate his efforts would 10/10 come again and only buy fear from the Cerritos lids!!!! read more

Great experience. I went into this store thinking that it was going to be a mission just to return a hat that I had purchased online from lids.com, but what I happened to find was that they actually had the hat in stock, which totally made me ecstatic. Customer service was great. I basically walked in and walked out without a glitch, which is an A+ in my book. Will totally come back for future "lid" purchases. Great people and had a great laugh! Lol I even got offered a job! read more

This store gives great service. They handle each customer with care no matter how busy they may be. read more

Awesome selection of hats and every employee asked me if I needed help. During check out, Victor helped me out with my exchange plus provided me some good tips on how to make my hat look fresh. Gracias! read more

Can't do a lids.com review here so the store gets the brunt of the force. Did an online order 4/10/2015 for store pick-up of Several Kings goods and a Lakers hat. Later on 7 of the 9 Kings items were OOS. They still charged me. If you don't have an item, don't charge me for it!! Simple. A few weeks later I go in store to pick up the Lakers hat and 2 of the 7 Kings items now. The rest of the 5 items are no where to be seen. The store barely knew where the items that were already there were. the items were not clearly labeled and just in a bag. I asked about the rest of my stuff but was reassured they would come in and let me know. Nothing. called lids customer service and they were kinda helpful and I just got a refund for the stuff they charged me for last much that they supposedly had in stock. Never again. I'll go to smaller sports store for my purchases from now on. Also. http://www.consumeraffairs.com/online/lids_com.html read more

Love love love! The staff where so nice and were able to get my hat customized in less than 40 minutes! Definitely recommend!

Spent over $200 on gear at a different store, but ended up trying to return a hat and shirt at this store. Brandon who called me a racist slur said they do not return items from different stores. He appeared to not want to take my return and forced me to drive to store that I bought it at 30 miles from here to return it. read more

I had a difficult time on a size hat, one of the employees was helpful enough to assist me and get my proper size to purchase my hat ! Great customer service! read more

Horrible customer service! Black dude was a jerk. I came with because the website said the hat I wanted was in store but homeboy said they didn't have my "Indian hat" when I wanted a Washington redskin hat. They don't even know they product! T read more

Came in to return a hat I got for Christmas. It was 1 size too big, I was greeted quickly and with a smile from Pam. She let me do the return without hassle and even let me pick a hat of my choosing! Didn't matter that I the hat was from another mall, didn't matter if I had the receipt, just hassle free, good old service! Thanks Pam! read more

I never had a problem with lids until about a month ago. I purchased a $40 gift card and when I tried to use it at the Cerritos location the boy told me their was nothing on the card. I emailed customer service to see how I can resolve since I no longer had the receipt. Customer service tells me the card was redeemed on the same date the store told me their was nothing on the card. They tell me there is nothing they can do because it's been redeemed. After a few attempts of me trying to get them to check the stores daily transactions I still get no response other than there is nothing we can do. This is the worst customer service I have ever witnessed. I ended up buying at hat with my debit that same day so that's 80 bucks I spent and still no help... Not even a response! Ridiculous! No stars at all but yelp is making me. read more

My go to lids. They guys who work here are always willing to go above and beyond. Other lids I've been to don't even come close to this one.
