Really large, well priced thrift store. Items are in really good shape. They have excellent organization throughout the racks and items. Very large selection, and there's even some little try in booths. Overall very nice, worth a visit if you're looking to update your style without spending a ton of money, plus it helps the environment. A+ highly recommend. read more

Gem to the neighborhood. Affordable, accessible, inclusive--what's not to love?! Fueling community and youth culture, giving an opportunity for all walks of life to look and feel good! I love this thrift shop so much! read more

I feel like a cool kid just knowing about this place. I found out about it on TikTok and made sure to take my daughter while we were in L.A. for the Thanksgiving holiday. Now it will be a destination whenever we're in town. Parking was fairly easy on the side street, with spaces opening up as we were coming and going. As soon as we reached the doorway we encountered a lovely scent. I think I heard the owner tell someone in another TikTok video that it's incense? Whatever it is, it's clean and inviting. Speaking of clean, everything I looked at was practically ready to wear right out of the store. I did A LOT of sniffing because I was curious as to whether they launder items before putting them out. I don't think that's the case, but the fact that I had a hard time discerning points to their meticulousness in what they take in. No stinky, stained, or holey stuff here. There are curtained dressing rooms, which is a nice departure from nearly every other thrift store I've been in since the pandemic. I also appreciate their organization and clarity. The pictures tell the story...every rack is prominently labeled with the clothing type and price. The only exceptions I noted were a few racks with premium/high-end pieces, which were priced individually. I keep coming back to the word "clean" when I think about Public Estrellas. It feels clean, bright, spacious, and easy to shop in. Their business model - which reminds me of a thrift version of Crossroads/Buffalo Exchange - is interesting and I hope they continue finding success. read more

diverse selection and affordable prices + the staff are very kind and helpful! pls check out this store ^^

Well organized thrift shop and so so so affordable too, I got about 3 pieces from here. The prices could compare to a goodwill or even more affordable than that! Everything was organized and priced by garment type. It is a big space so take your time to sort through all the clothing and accessories. read more

We were in the area and found this place on yelp. There's only street parking. This place is either a hit or miss. My son did not find anything but I was able to find a few things. You really have to be patient and take your time here because it's organized by color. I loved that the more you buy the bigger discount you got. The customer service was amazing and prices were reasonable. read more

Great pieces! Fabulous customer service and very organized! Would definitely come back and visit! read more

What a special find! I just happen to nearby and needed to scratch the thrift itch. This store is so organized and offers very affordable pricing for a real thrift experience. It's changing the game of thrifting with its clean presentation. Plus, he takes all clothes, so even fast fashion has a chance to not be in the landfill. Come check out this store and support its 2nd year in thrift retail business! read more

My ex is driving his daughter to her new home in the Midwest, and the trip is going to be *so* much colder than the coldest weather in LA. I made a list of thrift shops near our neighborhoods (I'm in DTLA, he's on Mt. Washington), and designed a route to take. Public Estrellas was our first stop--and it was the only stop he needed to make! Within minutes, he found a Columbia Snow Glide Interchange Jacket *and* a beautiful trench coat with a removable fleece lining--both in practically brand-new condition. Because the prices were so affordable, he got both! I wasn't in the market for anything, but looked through their dresses and tops, and was impressed with the quality, the pricing, and the impeccable organization of the store. Exceptionally well-lit, so clean, and the women at the front were delightful! I'll be returning for my own wardrobe additions soon. Because he wanted to look for a backpack, we headed to the next thrift store on our list--St. Vincent's--where we've both enjoyed shopping in the past. It's a very different experience, of course, but in going through the women's clothing, I was deeply disappointed by their pricing. A dress that cost $7 at Public Estrellas was $17.50 at St. Vincent's. It's no wonder that St. V's is overcrowded with inventory. If they priced their items like Public Estrellas, they'd have a better turnover. Viva Public Estrellas! read more

As soon as you walk in the vibe is so good. Great music and it actually smells nice in here. Everything is extremely organized with the price posted beside the racks. I think my favorite thing about this place is that they have fitting rooms. Overall, fantastic experience! read more

I don't usually have a good experience with thrift/consignment stores because the people are usually standoffish and judgmental - so I was blown away by how kind and welcoming everyone at Public Estrellas was. The woman helping me rounded up my clothes to the nearest pound and also let me weigh them in my bags to add more weight. She seemed truly happy to help! The prices are the best I've seen from most thrift stores, but the selection was just okay imo. The downside of taking everything people give is that there are a lot of older-looking styles. Totally worth the prices though! Highly recommend stopping by - I'll be back! read more

Overall great store, has a lot of different clothes and has a lot of different choices. Overall the people are very welcoming. read more

PUBLIC ESTRELLAS - Thrift Stores Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I love to thrift! I googled thrift stores near me and this one came up! My dad and I decided it looked good online and wanted to check it out! It was very clean, well organize and inexpensive! Lots of items to look through! And mostly decent clothes. I came across a handful of mini dresses and another good point to make, is that they have fitting rooms! Two of the mini dresses fit me, and I fell in love with them! I had the pleasure of meeting the store owner! I believe he gave me a discount because the mini dresses are $6 each, but he charged me just $8.45 for both! I recommended this thrift store to my friends and best friend who also loves to thrift! Her and I will be shopping here together very soon! Happy Thrifting! read more

This is a great place. Tons of selection, really good prices. It's old school thrift store- dig through, and you will find some gems on a dime. The people who work here are super nice too. read more

Live music cute clothes great prices! Come on Sundays :))))))) super nice and friendly

This was my secret for a year. Now many know what a great place to shop. The inventory is more than doubled. But NOT THE PRICES. 30% or more is brand new. I like to dig n find the funky n vintage pieces. Everything is pre washed so it's pretty wrinkly. read more

Was driving through ELA a few months back and noticed this thrift store. Very cool and organized window presence. I had been wanting to go back. Today was the day. The music made shopping pleasant and easy to focus. An open organized space with cool digs. Reasonably priced too. I bought 1 pair of pants, 2 button down short sleeves and about 5 T's all for $45 bucks. I had to get out of there quick before I spent my whole paycheck. The lighting is very good too. The cashier I think was an owner. He said they pre-wash everything and have been open for 2 years. I will definitely be going back and taking my friends that like thrifting. read more

This was my first visit to this Public Estrellas. When I first walked in to this thrift store, it smelled so good. Not like other thrift stores which smell old. They had so many clothes and accessories to choose from. You will get your money's worth. The customer service was excellent. I recommend this business. Keep up the good work!! read more

My friend and I came across Public Estrellas on TikTok and heard about the reasonable prices/clean store and were sold. We took a trip from Santa Monica/Weho to visit and it was worth the trip. We got some VERY reasonably priced items and the owner was really down to earth and seems passionate about what he does. Wishing this store the best and can't wait to come back! Thanks for bringing thrifting back to its roots. :) read more

Let me just start by saying, as a frequent thrifter, I could've easily spent all day in this store. It's tough to find thrift shops with reasonable prices nowadays--especially in LA--but this place delivers. The clothes are on point, with a wide variety to dig through! What really makes this spot stand out is the cleanliness. If you've been thrifting long enough, you know how rough some thrift stores can get--clothes that look and smell like they've been sitting in a basement for years. Not here! The owner told me he cleans all the inventory before it hits the racks, and it makes a huge difference. Everything feels fresh, which makes shopping so much more enjoyable. The owner is also super friendly. He's there running the place every day, pouring his heart and soul into it, and he truly deserves all the support. Fun fact: he speaks German, so if you're German or just visiting LA, he's your guy! I spent about two hours in there and still feel like I only scratched the surface. There's just so much good stuff to browse through--I was having way too much fun! This is the kind of spot that makes you want to come back again and again because you never know what new gems will pop up. If you're into thrifting and love supporting hardworking small business owners, this place is a must-visit. Great clothes, great prices, great vibes--I'll definitely be back soon! read more

Clothes are very well organized by categories. Really easy to go through. They also have racks for high end items (if that's what you're looking for). Items are fair priced. AND The staff was super helpful! I ended up grabbing a few pieces for a very fair price. 10/10 would come again. read more

Such a cool store with great vibes! I found this place thru Yelp as I just finished having no luck in St. Vincent. They had such good selection with great prices, like how a thrift store is supposed to be. I ended up leaving with a nasty gal vest and a really cute denim skirt all for $10. Definitely 10/10 will come back! read more

Great prices lots of nice stuff friendly staff new stuff all the time. Convinitient parking . Low prices

Meh. Well organized however ok selection...plenty of Forever 21 and Target branded items if you're into that. Pricing is fair except don't go by the pricing signs on the rack. The wall posters with pricing are what you should refer to, first time there and didn't realize this was the rule. Probably won't visit again, didn't really find anything special or unique enough to make the 30 minute drive from home in the future. read more

Wow! We drove an hour to this place based on its reviews. I really try to avoid corporate stores like Goodwill, so I am always on the hunt for unique thrifts. This place did not disappoint. It is huge, well organized, clean and priced like *gasp* a thrift store. My teen daughter got two tops and a jean skirt for a grand total of $12. The owner is super nice. Please go support this place and get your thrift on!! read more

The cleanest thrift store I have ever been too. Even the clothes smell amazing! Everything is so reasonably priced. He has a great selection of men's and women's. I got two shirts, a pair of men's Levi's and a maxi dress for $40. I hope everyone supports this business so that it sticks around. It's so well cared for unlike a lot of second hand stores. read more

One of the best thrift stores I've ever been to -- in LA or otherwise! Everything is organized, clean, an awesome variety, and actually affordable (hard to find these days)! Plus owner is so nice and welcoming. This is the place to go!! read more

I went here on a whim after getting a tattoo and pizza nearby and I'm so glad I did. The store has a great selection of clothes, is very organized, and affordable. The music is great and the owner is super friendly. He imports his stuff from Germany, Korea, and Japan and pre-washes everything. I'm super happy with the shirts I got and I'm definitely coming back here. Highly recommend! read more

I came here after seeing multiple TikTok videos, both from the business (love the videos) and other fellow thrifters! This thrift store was well organized, with clothing categorized by type (e.g., women's tops, shorts, etc.). The music was seriously on point, making my shopping experience even more enjoyable! The owner was so friendly and delightful--he lifted my friend's 50-pound bag of donations like it was nothing! I truly appreciated his help. I didn't leave with many finds, but I'll chalk that up to the fact that people had already picked out the good stuff. I'm definitely coming back to try again. He also hands out reward cards, and when you donate, you get store credit. Pricing is by the pound, and it's only 15 cents per pound. Overall, I'll be back to hunt for more thrift finds! read more

This is the most reasonably priced clothing/thrift store in the area with a great selection. The owner is super friendly and hardworking. It's cool that he made a store that people in the community can come to, listen to good music and afford to walk out of there with some great finds. I find something cool here every time I go. read more

Such a great shop!! I'd highly recommend checking this place out! The BEST prices I've seen at an LA thrift! With shirts as low as $3 and jeans $9. I really appreciated how organized the store was which made it super easy to shop and they have a great selection and variety of styles. In talking to the owner I learned that he also washes all the clothes before putting them on the racks which is almost unheard of for a thrift store. Overall such a great shopping experience and I'll definitely be back and would highly recommend to check out! read more
