I always have a lovely shopping experience at this Marshalls location despite the long lines. The key is to shop as soon as they open or when they're about to close (especially if know what you want). There are certain items I consistently buy and glad they always have them. But, I've had a few circumstances where I saw something once and didn't see it again. Another key thing is to just buy what you've seen instead of thinking they'll have more later on. I feel like the prices are reasonable....looove to come across clearance items. The staff are always welcoming and helpful. There's a guy there (Doug) who makes the most creative announcements on the intercom...making my shopping experience even better. I'm forever a Marshalls girl :-) read more

Marshalls - Department Stores Near Me - Carlsbad, California

The checkout experience at this location was extremely frustrating. The line stretched all the way to the end caps, yet although four cashiers were visible, the manager (Iliana) stayed at the back counter instead of stepping in to help move things along. One customer's return tied up a cashier, who then took additional time slowly putting items back instead of assisting the long line. Another cashier went on lunch while the line was still backed up, and the return transaction required tagging and manager approval while everyone waited. To make matters worse, my item had a visible price but no barcode, which led to a price check instead of a quicker solution. After waiting more than ten minutes just to check out, it felt like there was no urgency or leadership on the floor. With the number of associates present, the line could have moved much faster if customer service had been prioritized. read more

There is a wonderful selection of items at this location of Marshalls. The racks are well organized. Prices of Clearance Items are very affordable. The store is clean and bright. I briefly spoke with the Manager, Perla, to ask where the Restrooms are located. She kindly directed me to where they were. I walked too far and she helped me once again by kindly redirecting me to where they were located. I appreciate that very much. Lots of parking in front of the store. There's also a nice wall for sitting in front of the shopping carts corral outside of the store. read more

Marshalls - The Store Sign - Department Stores Near Me - Carlsbad, California

The store is absolutely disgusting. The changing rooms have not been cleaned in years. I don't think filth everywhere they smell. And I can't for the life of me understand why all the announcements are in Spanish. I'm bilingual, but I don't live in a Spanish-speaking country. Drives me insane. One woman who was ringing up my order, refused to speak to me in English. Insane read more

They have good face masks too. Good hair products like shampoo and conditioners and oils. They have cute costume jewelry and fun accessories at check out. Cute journals etc. candy and popcorn nice gifts to give to friends read more

I really liked coming to this location, but lately the customer service has gone drastically down. I was at the register with the manager mind you.. and right after I swiped my card, she straight walks away to go and chat with someone, leaving me there wondering what just happened?! The register prints my receipt... soI take it and start to leave... as I'm walking away, she THEN decides to re-acknowledge me by saying "I'm sorry" WHAT?! Like you couldn't have waited until after you finished with your customer to chat with co-workers? I was truly appalled read more

I bought a bag here last week and came to return it because it was dirty on the inside and I just didn't like it. I wasn't what I expected to look like with my outfit. And I had the receipt and the tags and the manager fought out refused to refund me with everything that I had. And I told her she's gonna do that because I had my tag and my receipt and she refused to do it. She literally threw it back down on the thing and refused. Usually come here all the time because I lived down the street will not be coming again. She was actually so rude. read more

I should've read all of the comments before shopping here. We stopped by for a visit as we are staying locally for a weekend. STAY AWAY ! The customer service is terrible. I am a TJ maxx card holder and shop very frequently at Marshall's and tj max and have never had an experience like this. If you are Mexican and you happen to come across an old white lady with white hair stay away from her register . I walked up with a stack of clothes and right away she shouted "Mexico!?". I said no Ma'am I am from America. Lastly, Leo the manager is an absolute joke. Don't even bother escalating your issues to him because he does nothing to address the issues. This place is trash just like all of their employees. read more

I bought a lotion for $7.99 and realized the other day, as I was going through my paperwork, that the cashier rang me up twice. The items had the same bar code/scan number so it was easy to see the error on the receipt. It wasn't a lot of money but still thought I should get it back. I worked all week and weekend with exception to Christmas day and tonight was the first opportunity to get to the store after work. I drove there from Oceanside and stood in a long line with my receipt in hand. Once I reached the cashier, she stated she had to get mgmt. approval. The manager, named Jackie, came over and literally scolded me for not calling first and for waiting too long (15 days) to come in. I was like what? She stated that because I waited to come in, she would not refund my $7.99 and instead would give me gift card. I asked her what she considered a "long time" when the company policy is 30 days or less? She ignored me 3 times before finally answering that I should have looked and came in within a day or two. I truly felt this woman should have said "I am so sorry this happened and that you had to make a trip back to the store due to our error". Again, it wasn't so much about the $$ but more if the fact that it was mine. I have spent thousands of $$ at that store and truly not happy with this type of service at all!! read more

Great selection and well displayed, my favorite store I sally shop here when I'm in the area read more

It's August, but Halloween and fall stuff is already out. I enjoyed my shopping today. I clearly noticed the number of ladies working today too; that is great! The line moved fast and I felt I was tidy for the browsers who always come in. I found what I needed and more, of course! The lady who rung me up was also helpful in giving me a gift receipt for the items I was purchasing for a bridal shower. read more

Customer service is very poor. I purchase clothes online often. When I receive them, I try them on and if it doesn't fit, then I return it. That is the process for online shopping. The rude employees here were hassling me about returning stuff. Old lady with white hair made rude comments and was generally difficult, acting like it was such a bother for her. Old hispanic lady with orange hair was giving me dirty looks. The two of them were talking badly about me in front of me. Awful. read more

They don't have any bathrooms for man and the only have women and unisex bathrooms but no mans bathrooms wtf. I had to wait for long time for one person unisex bathrooms because of waiting for to long I got health issues and I had to spend a night in argent care clinic. read more

Marshalls - One person Unisex bathrooms only and women bathroom - Department Stores Near Me - Carlsbad, California

A female employee leaving for the night driving a black pickup truck screamed "DONT FORGET TO LEAVE OUR CART" as my husband was loading the contents of the aforementioned cart into our vehicle. Why do you think we would even want to take it when we HAVE A VEHICLE!? Is it because our ride isn't a brand new vehicle? Awfully cruel and judgmental statement to make as a representative of her place of employment! And to SHOUT it at us from her truck as if we were not even worth the time it would take her to walk over and politely ask us to return the cart. We're not wealthy people, obviously. But that shouldn't immediately translate to "thieves" in the minds of your employees. That interaction really felt like a punch in the gut. Talk about kicking your neighbors while they're down... I already feel quite self conscious about my financial situation and now knowing that others quite possibly view me as a possible criminal or lowlife because of it breaks my heart We are very seriously leaning towards returning everything we purchased tonight as soon as this place opens in the morning. I don't like giving what little money I do have to a company that condones judgmental and downright hurtful behavior out of the folks on their payroll. There's seemingly endless amounts of negativity and hatred in the world....I'd so much rather my dollars fund a culture of kindness . PS the shouting scared our puppy :( DO BETTER! It's cool to be kind read more

DO NOT OPEN A MARSHALLS CREDIT CARD HERE. I used to love going here, one day they convinced me to open a credit card. A couple weeks later I go to pay that balance, Synchrony Bank tells me there's another charge that was made the following day for almost $200! I didn't even have my card yet to make the charge. Someone at the store clearly kept my new card temporary information when I signed up and used it to purchase things. It's been over a month and I am still fighting this fraudulent charge. read more

Love the merchandise but for the last six months the customer service has gone downhill. The lines, which always used to move fast even when there were tons of people, are completely out of hand. Only two registers open on a Sunday evening when the line stretched clear into the shopping aisle, and one register is taken up by a yapping Karen complaining about not getting sale prices for a mound of clothing she has dumped up on the counter! I know it's hard to predict customer traffic, but it never used to be this way.... read more

might be a good idea to post your hours on the storefront. you have people waiting outside because yelp says your open read more

Don't go here. This place does not follow guidelines. The line at checkout was long and people were definitely not practicing social distancing. No markings no one to regulate social distancing. It's like a regular line before covid! Ridiculous. Even though there's a person outside keeping count of people in the store, it's definitely more crowded than an off-hour pre-covid day! Don't give them your business. Marshall's doesn't respect the safety of employees and customers. I left the store without purchasing anything after seeing what's going on inside. read more

The older white lady that is a coordinator here is extremely rude. I got a perfume on clearance because it was open to begin with, tried returning it and gave me attitude saying they wouldn't have sold perfumes that are open when they have PLENTY opened fragrances that are on clearance. She shoved my perfume back to me and told me to take it back to the location I got it from. No type of customer service skills, incredibly rude, how could someone with no customer service skills even be given a coordinator position. I've worked retail and this kind of treatment is never allowed. I would have no problem if she had said it nicely to begin. What a fucking bitch. read more

My hubby and I had to take my mom to marshal. In the beginning there was a line after awhile another cashier came in and than another one so which it made 4 cashier so it went by faster. read more

Fantastic Marshalls location! I stopped by with my coworker Friday night for some Christmas shopping. They had a lot of great brands here! They even sell Kate Spade clothing for cheap! It has better deals than the outlets nearby. I didn't purchase any cosmetics from here but they do carry Anastasia Beverly Hills contour palettes and highlighter sets. They even have Becca Cosmetics! read more

I came to this location to see if they had any yellow tag clearance stuff. I found nothing for me but my daughter found a unicorn tee shirt she really wanted. It was $6.00 red tag. I also found gummy bears which were Albanese brand. That was all I got from here. Store was organized and the lady working here was nice as she made conversation with me. I was a little disappointed in the selection here. I was looking for yellow tags. I found more at the San Ysidro location but I guess my hunt continues as I look for great deals. That's more fun for me as I try to find good deals for less. On my hunt for other Marshall's locations. read more

This was my first time here. There was clothing on the floor, and the store is disorganized. The clothing looked poorly made and I would say is a step or two below TJ Maxx. The shoes were ugly and cheap looking too. I won't be going back - ever. read more

I'm a fan of Marshall's. They seem to have more of odds and ends selection compared to a Ross. There might be less of a men's section compared to Ross though. Saying that there are usually a couple nice articles of clothing you can find and who doesn't like a bargain. They have a nice ball cap/hat section. read more

Descent Marshalls in Carlsbad. Easy parking, clean store, nice staff and not too full. Well stocked and great clearance section. Didn't find anything this time, but if I am in the area again, I would stop by, you never know what you will find! read more

The only thing I don't like about Marshall's is that it can feel pretty unorganized at times. Other than that, it has some high quality things with small price tags. Plus, they have it all... I always thought it was just clothes... but it's really not. If it's house or pet related... they probably have it. This includes snacks, Himalayan salt (which is normally very expensive), coconut oil (also otherwise expensive), dishes, pots, pans, cutting boards, knives/silverware.... All types of bathroom and cleaning stuff... Shower curtains, decorative and covered trash cans, toilet bowl cleaners and plungers... it also has mats, broom and mops, etc etc... And to top it off, they have electronics. Chargers, headphones, cell phone covers... I'd check it out for sure. I actually really like that place. read more

Looking for home goods, electronics, clothes and so on? This place is great for all that and much more and at a reasonable price. This place can get crowded depending when you visit. However you should still drop by. The store seems to be clean, and organized everytime I go. I always find something I want to buy. read more

20 minutes shopping, 40 minutes in line! For a time only 1 person behind register. 3 employees discussing tag on clothes item while at least 25 people stood in line. The 1 employee behind register apologized but no one else seemed to care. A new manager is needed at this store! read more

Been to this location few times in the past year. Good place to find decor items for the home at a good price. You just have to pay attention to all sides to make sure there are no chips or cracks. It's not the neatest store but it's a good place to waste time while trying to find things you like. read more

The place is filthy! Dust and lint so thick coming off of the filters and vents in the ceiling falling all over the clothes and on people. I mentioned it to the cashier one time I was in but I've been back multiple times and still the issue hasn't been taken care of. The store is very hot making it miserable to shop. It's probably so hot because they don't clean the air filters and vents! The deals are great, but I'll probably start going to another location if they don't tend to the store soon! read more

I had a terrible experience at this store. This happened about a month ago but I am finally going on here to write a review I am not getting in to depth but the cashier was very rude. I love this store but it made me not want to come back. read more

This has got to be the slowest store I've ever been to , I've been there two times and both times waited in line about 15 minutes with only 4/5 people in front of me it's ridiculous. A quick in and out is impossible at this store even when they have 4 cashiers read more

Customer service is horrible. The cashier was rude and harrassing. I don't think I will shop here anymore.

Good selection of merchandise but like all Marshall's, cools do better on keeping up organization and cleanliness on the floor. Have experienced some issues with customer service here before. I purchased an item and it broke when the cashier was ringing it up. She refused to mark it down very much- can't remember how much but I remember it was some negligible/ measly amount. Think that they really should have marked it down more. I think i remember getting it anyways since I had wanted a matching set... they're also really stringent with returns... read more

This Marshalls always has a great selection of items and is usually really clean. It's surprisingly dog friendly too.

The Las Posas location is exponentially better. The Marron location is unorganized, unkempt and unimaginative. Employees would rather be doing anything else other than getting lines down. But, and this is a big but, you will find some great deals here. You will have to be vigilant. You must remain composed. But prepare for disappointment. Lots of disappointment... read more

I'd like to leave a zero star but that's not an option. Worst customer service!! I purchased a pair of flips flops at this location. Flip flops did not fit... when returning flip flops with original packaging, receipt (within 30 days) and original bag I was accused of returning a used object. I informed the cashier that I have never worn them and that's how I purchased them. They do not fit me and that's why I am returning them. The cashier was just plain rude. I don't appreciate the rude customer service!! Long story short, the cashier was in the wrong. I do not like to leave negative comments on yelp, but this needed to be addressed. I will take my business elsewhere. read more

Came in to return items. Very crowded store. Lines are long but the wait times aren't bad. Appears longer than it is. Apparently a yellow tag means its final sale but no where on the sticker or receipt is that indicated. Luckily, the manage ok'd the refund but it could cause a lot of problems I'm sure. Should probably straighten that out...just a suggestion. read more

I'm not a huge fan of the Marshalls/Ross/TJ Maxx family but I work near this Marshalls and use it as an excuse to get out of the office every once in a while. I first shopped here for kitchen and bathroom goods after a move, and I was impressed by the tidiness that usually lacks in these sections at discount stores. I branched out into the workout section when I needed a new yoga mat, and from there I checked out the women's tops (both workout and non-workout). Totally pleased! I can't buy many new things these days but Marshalls makes it a little less painful when I do ;) And I've gotta mention that the cute little woman who works the dressing rooms on weekdays is a total sweetheart!! read more
