It was easy to find and they also have ample parking being away from the main town. I was able to snag a parking spot on the weekend but if it gets busy they also have valet parking which I appreciate. The grounds of the Post are really beautiful. It's a lovely outdoor space to shop and drink your coffee or tea. The stores are very visually appealing and the aesthetic gives clean and *money lol. But really, let's just call it what it is. To shop here you have to be spending a pretty penny. I won't rate less stars because of this - I just want to acknowledge for fellow readers this is not an outlet, there are no deals - this is a spot for luxury shopping and that's A okay. It's a place I'll gladly come to look around but it's out of my price range. Aside from the shops I love that the Post holds space for one of my favorite new restaurants, Ospi! They also have a coffee shop and meal prep store here if you are looking for something more on the go and small. But as far as restaurants go it's super cool that they have Ospi here.

The Main Courtyard features a comfy outdoor seating space, surrounded by some amazing greenery, and features a very colorful and historic fountain at the center. Designer clothing shops for men, women, and children, as well as a jewelry designer, leather bags and belts, the Leone Hair Salon, and my new favorite Italian Restaurant, Ospi. Staff at all the shops were were courteous and welcoming. And reasonable Valet parking is also available. Was so much fun to be greeted right away by Tedde and her Garden Shop, Scenery Floral. Tedde is a Curator, Art Historian, and Stylist. She has a nice selection of plants, pottery, garden tools, and so much more. So nice to see the beauty in this small and welcoming outdoor space. Although we did not have a lot of time to truly explore, we did walk in and out of several shops and definitely look forward to bring family and friends for some serious Retail Therapy. We also got the chance to meet stylist Kadel and tour his store, The Optimist, which has an incredible selection of men's clothing. And winding down the day with a late lunch at Ospi. Some delicious wines and cocktails, and Italian Pastas and Pizza. Such a fun spot to eat Breakfast, Lunch, Happy Hour, and/or Dinner.

After having our donuts, we walked around the plaza. This plaza is similar to an outdoor mall. There are wide walkways with restaurants and boutique shops. There is parking around the borders. The further in I walked, the more I felt like i had teleported to Europe! The main reason we explored this plaza was because of the sculpture, then the telephone booth, then the turtle pond, etc., and we just kept finding more sculptures & things of interest! Points of interest that I saw: Generation Bridge, Lion, Whale Tail Bench, Telephone Booth, Tile Plaque with La Arcada history, Saint Barbara Award to Hugh Petersen, Turtle Fountain, Ben Franklin, The Mozart Trio Fountain, Mission Bell, Ship Cannon, Sea Turtle, Sea Lion, & Dolphins. There's also one that took me by surprise called "Nice To See You". It's a man washing a window. And there's a man with a child on his shoulders with a fair mural behind them called, "Nice To See You". I'm sure I missed a few things. This was a cool unplanned discovery!

Although those days are long gone, and many of the stores that made it "premium" are no longer here, it's better than most. There are still some good deals. It's also fairly large so you'll spend a decent amount of time walking through every section. We're usually shopping for something specific -- today it's jeans for the husband. But we always end up with more than planned. :) We browsed through many of the stores, spending much of our time at Lucky Brand, Levi's, Lululemon, adidas, The North Face and Ralph Lauren. We got the best deal on jeans at Levi's and surprisingly found a nice lightweight sweater for him at Lululemon. We like to grab a light snack or drink treat while we shop. Wetzel's Pretzels is a favorite but today we discovered that Boba Time has joined the outlets! Overall, it was a really nice day. I realized when we left that I missed going to Pottery Barn! We'll need to start on that side next time.

JOE'S JEANS & SEVEN FOR ALL MANKIND ARE GONE!…read more I'm really disappointed because I drove down to Camarillo from Santa Barbara to go to Joes jeans and Seven jeans specifically. And yes, I checked the outlet website before I left for hours and it appeared that both stores were active and open. When I arrived, Joes was simply gone. I went over to the kiosk map to check and it was still listed in its usual location. But it had been replaced by another store, Reformation, I believe. An employee of the outlets walked by and said I looked confused and told me the map hadn't been updated in a minute. Disappointed, I then went over to Seven, which was also gone! Replaced by Fabletics, I think. The point is that Joes and Seven are still listed on the outlet website and they are still listed in the on-site kiosks as active stores. Not only am I disappointed that a few of my favorite stores are just gone like that, but I'm especially disappointed at the glaring lack of communication that lead to an entire afternoon being wasted. The outlets otherwise appear to be going down hill. I don't think I'll be back after this.

It's very convenient to the freeway, with lots of free parking, plus various restaurants to refuel you during your shopping adventures. The stores are good sized with elbow room and high ceilings. The exterior facades were designed with a mix of architecture to give the effect of a village, not a monolithic samey-samey feel. We stopped by two weekends ago while hunting for decor supplies for our daughter's baby shower. My destination that day was Michael's. Dear Hubby headed for B&N to enjoy the periodicals section while I did my thing. That day I didn't have extra time, but I have shopped the Ventura Kohl's previously. There's also a Pet Smart and Sprouts in the plaza. Noted that StoneFire Grill took over for Macaroni Grill. Lots of palm trees grace the parking lot to remind you that you're in Southern California and near the beach.

It was recently beautifully refurbished into an oasis of an artisan strip mall and offers surprises both inside and out. The venue is wonderfully landscaped and offers great curb appeal, with ambient lighting and drought tolerant vegetation. The parking area is small but there are reserved spaces in a lot across the street where Low Pigeon Coffee is located. The exterior retains its original "mill" charm with natural wood siding and large industrial windows. You'd have no idea it housed several businesses from the front and that is what I appreciate. The facade was kept to look like how it always has, so it remains in tune with the neighborhood rather than sticking out like a sore thumb. You'll find the coolest courtyard just beyond the entrance which is shared by all businesses. It is well lit and offers ample seating and a few clean restrooms. I've been when there is live music and it's the ideal place to enjoy a beverage under the evening sky. There are a handful of small businesses occupying The Mill. I love the vibe of Potek Wine, the interior is intimate and the exposed barrels make for a nice backdrop. I'd say the star of the show is the Third Window Brewing which offers a large main room along with a secondary private patio and a rotating restaurant which varies from their in-house menu to nightly popup dining. A great vibe overall.
