This place is awesome!!!
Thom H.

This is a very cool place. So many oddities and eclectic items. If you like these kinds of items, this is the place for you. The guy behind the counter was very nice. He quickly answered some of my questions while waiting on a customer. I'm not sure of the value, but the selection is incredible.

Holy sh*t it's a dinosaur!

Finally got to check out this place! I have been driving by it for so long and i happened to see their doors were open today. So I popped in to see what it was all about. They have an awesome array of very unique and beautiful exotic plants. Very beautiful and friendly birds to greet you while you look around. The guy who runs the place, Chris, was super friendly and very cool. Let me look around and take pictures and ask a bunch of questions. They had some huge dinosaur pieces! So cool! So many fossils! Love this place!

Chris did an amazing job for us helping us move our birds, aviaries, books and so much more. He is hard working, honest and fair.

The beautiful costume jewelry piece I bought at my last visit to The Vista Trading Post.

On our way to a consignment store we saw this place and decided to check it out…read more Walking in we saw a sign that there's 65 multiple vendors in this place. So it was neat that each vendor had its on cubicle-like space that was unique. We really enjoyed checking out each space and finding so many vintage and unique items. The prices were also reasonable and fair. We spent so much time looking through the place to make sure we didn't miss anything. This entire "mall" was very organized and clean which made it a good shopping experience. As far as service, when we visited on a Saturday afternoon, we didn't interact with any staff/vendor so I can't say anything about that. Overall, a very neat place to find unique items that'll take you back.

This antique mall has so much to look at. There are individual stalls for each vendor and it's…read moreclear they have curated their own collections based on their tastes. I always find so many fun and interesting things to look at. It always stirs up childhood memories of items my family had growing up that I had long forgotten. It is a mix of vintage, antique and some things you could find in a thrift store. The prices for things you could find in thrift stores (ie michael Kors purses etc) are much more expensive. Otherwise, it's definitely enjoyable to browse. I've been coming since it first opened and it's been fun to watch it evolve.

Absolutely rude! I came in looking for specific items and instead of offering assistance I was…read moretreated horribly. I do not spend money or support local when I'm not treated with basic curiosity. Shame on you as a local business for not engaging customers who went out of their way to shop with you and not treat them the way you would want to be treated. Upon reading other unhappy reviews I see I am not the only one that feels this way. I also question the positive reviews because they seem to be for the connected store not their store. This store is out of the way even if you live in Vista. It was not worth the trip, will be not be back and definitely not recommending them. North County is full of locally owned, thrifted, vintage stores no one should waist their time with this store.

Willow Tree in Vista is an absolute gem. It is one of those rare stores where you can walk in for…read more"just a look" and somehow always leave with something special. The shop is beautifully curated with a thoughtful mix of home goods, antiques, jewelry, candles, spa items, furniture, linens, mugs, coffee, and unique gifts you don't see everywhere else. The store itself is absolutely adorable and constantly evolving -- every visit feels fresh and inspiring. Prices are very reasonable, especially for the quality and uniqueness of the items. The staff is warm, welcoming, and genuinely helpful without ever being intrusive, which makes the shopping experience even more enjoyable. I've purchased everything from furniture and jewelry to candles, towels, mugs, and gifts, and I've loved every single piece. Willow Tree is one of my favorite places to shop in Vista and a store I recommend without hesitation. A true local treasure.
