We had amazing service at The Fort today. Went in to buy a skateboard for a first-time rider and they took their time explaining the decks and all of the equipment without trying to upsell us at all. I feel that we got the perfect board and have a very happy girl. We will definitely be back! Thank you! read more

Brought my son to this place to get new wheels for his skateboard. A friend of his recommended it and got a new board there . After speaking with Dillion we found wheels but then ended getting a new board as well . Nice staff and overall nice store . Definitely coming back read more

This place is horrific. They false advertise items and when it comes down to purchasing what they advertise, they don't honor it. Complete scam. Reported to the better business bureau and had a official complaint to get this shady establishment investigated! read more

I met Chris and London, so much fun speaking to them and telling them about my experience of being in Season 12 of Worst Cooks in America. I was so proud of myself being gutsy enough to make a fool out of myself on American National TV. These 2 are really fun to talk to. Store is nice and neat, I will definitely be back again. I bought a yellow kill bill hootie, love it and 2 beautiful masks not lol I will come back for the customer service that's the American way ! We got it down ! read more

Super friendly and cool staff. My son saved and bought his skate. Loved getting to customize it and take it home. We were happy to support local and skip online shopping. Thanks for making my skaters day! And an read more

This store introduced me to Stance boxers. They are more comfortable than wearing nothing. The staff is very friendly and helpful. They will take the time to make sure you get what you really want or didn't realize you needed. I've been in about 5 times or so. Each time a positive experience, good atmosphere, friendly people, good selection of stuff. read more

Great shop, will miss it and continue to order online. Ownership looks to always have the right merchandise.

I was shopping atthe fort for some clothes and the staff was amazing. Super kind and friendly, helped me with everything I needed and more. Above and beyond service at the fort. This place is sick! Awesome place to shop for my skating necessities. read more

I've been living in this city for 30 years now and just recently I discovered this gem! I've been blessed to shop here and treated like a longtime friend. Truly this is THE best skate shop in the area, always loaded with dope gear and merchandise I recommend stopping by and saying hello. The staff is attentive and friendly every time. They hold raffles for cool sb dunks and what not, always exciting. Will be back time and time again! 10/10 highly recommend read more

To the owner of the Skate shop The Fort "@Amiequintana"who was completely disrespectful and out of line in the comments on Instagram to me and others, who were voicing The facts and truth about Your first come first serve releases on sneakers,The Fort deleted all my comment and blocked me because they couldn't handle the facts. I been going to the store for a year now for new Sneaker releases, I always wonder why I never got a lucky considering the fact that I live 10 minutes away from the store,Yesterday they had a new release on the pigskin dunks and I was right down the corner at Walmart parking lot that's literally 4 minutes away from the store when I got there 5mins after the post they made on Instagram, they told me " we only have a size 9 left but we are keeping it " I said to the guy "ok I never had luck here" Little did I realize it had nothing to do with luck. As I was sitting in my car getting ready to leave I saw a gentleman that I recognize who is a reseller that I have met before walking out of the store, me and him started talking and he told me that he got a pair of dunks because he gets "hook up" and he was also pointing out other resellers who were also getting Multiple pairs of dunks with his kids. Not knocking anyone's Hustle But it's clear to me that the shop is being dishonest about their releases and having people waste their time and come all the way there for them not to have anything because They are giving out inside information to their own people what kind of business are you running, Seems to be more of a scam operation. On a scale from 1 to 10 Scale False advertisement -00 Customer service -0 Being honest about your merchandise -00 Responding to customers Comments On major platform Professionally -00 Zero stars. There should be no room for discrimination and Belittling customers when running a business please read what the owner had to say to me on Instagram in the comments Ps. They deleted a lot of what they said this is just a piece of the pie read more

I was scrambling doing last minute holiday shopping on Christmas Eve because I had ZERO holiday spirit this year to shop. Two guys that work here stepped it up and totally saved me! I got everything I needed here and they helped me wrap the 12 gifts too because it was slow there. These guys went above and beyond to help. It was refreshing to see and I'm so grateful! Cool store too. read more

Shopping local is the key nowadays. Better quality products and better quality service. You get it all and you get to build a relationship with the business owners. Stopped in for some Black Friday shopping today and walked out with some goodies! Really love the vibe there, always greeted with a warm smile and enjoy all the products they sell. Thanks Justin! We are definitely returning! read more

Met Justin at the Fort, helpful with service and it's my new go to Skate shop. My girls love shopping there also!

I love that they come to greet you and just are immediately friendly and willing to help you, say set up a board. Great service and just really nice overall. read more

Favorite skate shop. I come here for clothes & am never disappointed. They have a great selection to choose from & Justin always helps me find what I need! Love the staff here. Highly recommend The Fort!! read more

Incredible experience. I brought my son in this weekend to buy his first board for his birthday and the sales guy London was awesome. He showed us all the options, involved my son in building the board, and chatted the whole time. He was so polite and engaging with my son that he made the experience very memorable. Highly recommend. read more

This is the only clothing store my 14 y/o will shop with me. Love the staff (young men) that know my son. Very local feel with great clothes for young kids to adults. Love the idea of supporting small business owners too. read more

We went to check this place out after grabbing lunch at Whole Foods. Such cute stuff! We have a one year old niece and a one year old nephew. I wanted to buy everything. We ended up with a Winter Water Factory onesie and two logo tees. They also have adult clothing, skateboards, accessories, etc. We grabbed a few pairs of Stance socks, which are amazing. read more

This store just opened on Saturday in the Laguna Niguel Whole Foods center. It has a bunch of cool baby clothes, and great stuff for grown ups as well. I don't have kids, but my wife was obsessed with the Freshly Picked baby moccasins. She wanted a pair for every baby she had ever met. The staff was very friendly and helpful. We will definitely be back. read more

I spent money here once and never again. A real shame to have this place be my local skate shop really. Its one thing to claim to be supportive of all members of the community and it's another for you and your staff to actually exercise it. Everytime I came here after my first purchase hoping to make a another, the service is always terrible. Most the staff all have a condescending attitude, that comes directly from the shop owner. No surprise now, really as you can read the way she talks to people on Instagram. Owners and staff seem to only cater to the weekly regulars and completely ignore everyone else. They claim to run a first come first served sneaker release when in reality they have already told the regulars long before they post it publicly. Why waste people's time? Don't waste your time with this shop and their discriminatory practices, spend your money at a place that values honesty and integrity. Not dishonesty. Jacks Garage Skateshop in HB runs a way better operation with much better service! read more

I absolutely LOVE everything about this store! They have a great selection of women's, babies, toddlers, kids, and teen clothing. Their men's section is great too! And they have shoes for men! Accessories, even skateboards. Seriously, you can shop for the whole family here!! Everyone that works here is super helpful and extremely friendly. Great spot to grab a gift. And perfect spot to secretly shop while you run out to "go grocery shopping" at Whole Foods a few doors down. read more

I went in a few weeks back and had to bring my wife and kids in. Got some great shoes and tees at a great price. This place has soooo much variety I couldn't believe it. Backpacks, wallets, watches, skateboard parts and accessories, etc! All without having to fight Mall traffic. Awesome store! Must check out! read more

I wanted to get into skateboarding so my uncle recommended this place to me. I didn't know anything about skating but Anthony was a great help in picking out all the parts to make my board. I could not have had a better experience read more

This place is a real gem! It's rare that you can walk into a boutique like setting and find something for any age group. I was super impressed by the way the guys here could get so much great quality product into such a small place and generate an awesome customer experience. If you are looking to escape that overwhelming shopping experience that usually comes hand in hand with other local big box shoppes, then I can assure you The Fort will not disappoint. From Nixon to Vans and even Free People, I dare you to leave empty handed! read more

Came into buy my son his first real skateboard and was super impressed with this shop. Really cool feel and the two guys who worked there took as much time as was needed to help my son pick out his board, trucks, wheels and bearings. They had him help them put it together. I appreciated that they were sensitive to what was appropriate for a 9 year old boy and would only show him those boards. The price was very competitive and the customer service was amazing. Would come back here again and again. read more

Friendly environment, knowledgeable people, amazing prices, 5 stars all day - This place is LEGIT. Best experience I have ever had at a skate/surf shop. My GF and I went in here with very specific needs and a budget. I was looking to get a new deck and some shoes; gf was looking for a nice pair of Vans slip-ons at a good price. Chris helped us out and couldn't have been more knowledgeable and attentive to our needs. We ended up walking out with 2 pairs of Vans shoes and a full board set up (deck, trucks, risers, wheels, bearings and grip)for ~ $200. The board was put together while we shopped around and everything was reasonably priced and great quality. They even had the hair gel I use (Suavecito) for a much lower price than my barber shop. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for skate/surf gear. read more

What a great shop! I love all the baby & little skater clothes. Good vibes and great staff. Thank you for making my shopping experience a great one! I will definitely be back! read more

This place is amazing. The staff is so nice and helpful. It has everything you need. Stuff for the WHOLE family, baby/children clothing, women's/mens clothing, skateboards, sunglasses, shoes, jewelry and accessories. Great place to buy gifts as well! They also have a stumptown coffee tap, and 2 arcade games including nba jam and 720!!! So sick!! If you don't shop here you're nuts. Go check it out, I promise you will fall in love. Their address is 23994 Aliso creek road. Right to the left of whole foods! read more

Great to have The Fort in our area. Nice selection of clothing for all ages, and love the skateboard side of the business also.

MAHALO NUI LOA...to owner Amie and her staff for being so helpful in helping me (by phone from NYC) purchase and mail gift cards to my family in Mission Viejo. You made it so easy. Your personal customer service is unmatched. read more

If I could get a lower review I would I spent hundreds of dollars at this local business when I washed an outfit according to the instructions and it shrank half the size the "" business owner refused to exchange my product. He was extremely rude I will never ever spend another dollar at the store and I would seriously consider spending money here as they do not stand behind any products they sell I had my receipt and I purchased my item within a week and he wouldn't listen to me then he threw my outfit back at me and told me to leave and that and was glad that I wasn't coming back read more

Absolutely love this place. Everyone that works there are extremely down to earth. I never feel pressured to buy buy buy. The whole vibe is great. Great options for kids and teens. When I shop for my kids I always reward myself with something I could "never live without" read more

This is such a hidden gem. Driving by you would only think they sell men's skate/surf clothes. But in the back is great stuff for babies and kids. I'm so glad I randomly saw a facebook post for this store because I would have never ventured in. They have some of the best baby brands around! My new fav! read more

For anyone looking to keep it local this place is great. I come in here for my son's skateboarding needs. Everyone is always happy to help out and super friendly. Check it out. read more

I love "The Fort & The Clubhouse"! This is the best one stop shop for all women's, men's, and kid's clothing, accessories, shoes, etc.! The staff are all really friendly and helpful. It is great to be able to go to a store where it feels like you can find unique and quality items. I recommend checking out this place, I guarantee you will not be disappointed! read more

I was doing a little shopping at Whole Foods and passed in front of this place. What a nice surprise! There's a nice selection of pretty cool clothing and shoes and I found some great deals. Too bad I don't skate, because they had some great gear. Shaka, brah! read more

Such a wonderful place for just about everything. Having a 29 year old daughter with friends now with newborns to 5 years old, there is always something here to find for gifts that you won't find anywhere else at all different price points. And anything that Amie and Jimmy set their minds to, will be top notch. I highly recommend stopping in because it will be your landing place for many years. Barbara Parker read more
