A few Exclusive hello kitty merchandise!
Becky V.

O my god I can buy everything here. Can't stay too long, must get out. Ton of cute kitchenware, entertaining goods for parties/events, imported snacks/candies. Dream come true for dinner party hosts Crowded on weekends but plenty of spots if you're willing to walk a bit. Easy big parking lot

I have been to 2 several World Market locations one in Daly City & One In San Francisco This World Market is a cool place to shop at!!!! Last time I was here I ended up buying a Coca-Cola Gummy & Mini Size Wine From Espana!!!!!

I've only been here a couple of times with my cousin. He ordered some stuff for him and his mom. This is the new place for me. I've been to the one in West Westlake they do have some nice stuff here. You can order online and wait in front of the store until they send you a text that your order is ready to pick up Thanks for reading my review. ~Lizzie ~ :)

German cat wine, funny calendars, Christmas cookies, decorations and furniture. Lots of imports and unique items. These stores are becoming less common and you might have to travel a bit to get to one. My normal store is the Oakland location but I was at the mall nearby for some cheesecake. German cat wine. One of those things everybody likes. Well, almost everybody. I went to a friends birthday recently and quickly pulled the bottle out of a bag and put it in front of her. Somehow I don't think she was ready for a glass bottle cat to stare at her and she had a somewhat negative reaction. I think it was my fault. I pulled it out to fast. Usually its best to give the ladies a warning first. Funny calendars. I think that is a great Christmas gift. Its timely, its easy and inexpensive to ship and the people you give it to will think of you all year. I know I was gifted a Shen Yun calendar this year and every month when I flipped through the pages I would think of the person who gave me the little gift that sits on my kitchen table. Furniture, bar stools, couches, wine racks. So much here. If you are redecorating you might want to stop by and take a look. Overall, worth a drive. Come take a look.

Such a great place to shop during the holiday season! The pre-black friday sale meant up to 50% off items throughout the store on a Monday evening. Easy to access in the Serramonte Center, as it's not attached to the mall and has its own entrance from the parking lot. So many unique items available, from adorable animal ornaments to mushroom themed everything... I thought the Mushroom Village gingerbread cookie kit was charming. And of course I couldn't leave without a bottle of mushroom wine (half bottle of Mushroom Cabernet to be exact). Got the Chocolate Shop red wine as well, cuz ya know, I hear every chocolate lover has got to try it. Also loved the cute pop-up greeting cards and eye pillows (not pillows for your eyes, but decorative pillows designed and shaped as eyes). The workers were wonderful too, opened up another register for me even though there were only two people in line for purchases. World Market is awesome. Now's a good time to go, lots of great items in stock.

office chair but the foam doesn't seem comfortable
Thien H.

Several of the the Cost Plus World Market stores I used to go to in California have closed down, this is one of the few remaining ones. This place is like TJ Maxx where you think you'll just get one or two items and then you end up with a cart full of stuff. However, I've come to the conclusion that I should just never buy their furniture. They often have some sort of sale going on. Their designs are cute, fit my aesthetic, and are somewhat more affordable than traditional furniture stores but when you actually sit down on the office or dining chairs you can feel that the foam is cheap and not that comfortable. I like their mirrors and wall decor section. They do a great job of selecting somewhat interesting but generic designs that will appeal to a lot of people. I could easily stage a house for sale with their stuff. I was a little disappointed with their bath section. I was trying to find matching bathroom items like a toothbrush holder, cup, trashcan and the options were slim. It makes me miss Bed Bath and Beyond. The food and drink section is where the fun is. You kinda have to know your brands and prices for foods so you don't overpay for something you could easily get at the regular grocery store. They actually do carry a variety of items from around the world. There are some brands/foods that are cheaper here than they are online. I would recommend looking at the best by dates because some items are close to their expiration dates. There were about 5 items I didn't buy because they were way too close to expiring, and I don't go through foods like an 8 oz box of chocolate sprinkles that fast. The kitchen section is colorful and enjoyable to browse. They have specialty items like the ooni pizza oven. If you need a tagine for a recipe, this would be the place to find it. Their current holiday selection of Halloween and fall decorations and foods are very good. If you want to throw a holiday party or themed dinner this is a nice place to get inspired and pick up a some unique decor, foods, or drinks. If I had the space and money, I'd buy a lot of decorations and foods here for every holiday. The parking can get pretty bad. It's at the Serramonte Center so even though the Buy Buy Baby next door has closed you have to compete with people trying to find parking for Ross, Dick's Sporting Goods, Daiso, the mall, the mall's food court, etc. Fyi, I never get my hopes up when they text me deals. The freebie items are always out of stock.

Curbside in a pinch!
Geminyna J.

Members get 15% Off Store Pick-Up with code: 'STORE15' I love Cost Plus World Market (CPWM) and all the unique items they have. I remember going to the original Cost Plus location with my mom when I was younger. I don't love this location they moved into, the crazy mall parking lot makes it less desirable during peak hours. As fun as it is to peruse what's inside, there's times I need to be in/out as quickly as possible and order ahead online is supposed to help make this experience expeditious. They entice members to use curbside service with a savings perk but unfortunately, CPWM's curbside pickup is the *least* efficient store in the area. Maybe use Target's business model for performance improvements bc they set the bar high with drive up / pickup orders that are actually ready as promised (within two hours). AND Target's app reflects order status accordingly, saving customers the trouble to wait and speak with a live store employee. Stark contrast of an experience here and not just once but each time I use their curbside pickup. I wait patiently for 24 hours expecting to receive a secondary email confirmation that my order will be ready for pickup by a certain time. Nothing. So I have to call in after each curbside online order to follow up on status. And it's always only then that a store employee prompts staff to begin fulfilling my online order for pickup. THEN after the conversations, the pickup email confirmation is received with a link to tap upon arrival. [Management]: Please review Daly City's workflows and make this service as convenient and efficient as it's intended to be for your customers.

Hello Kitty Rice Crackers & Noodles

This store is located at Serramonte Mall. There's plenty of parking. The name of the store, " World Market" says it all. They sell food, clothing, furniture, booze, spices, beverages, and kitchenware from all around the world. I came to this store to buy some tikka masala sauce. I ended up buying a whole shopping cart full of variety of sauces, saute pans, cheddar & chive pancake waffle mix, variety of beverages, and some spices. Many of the products look appealing and I couldn't resist not buying them. They sell a good variety of wine, candies, cookies, noodles, olive oil, sauces, beverages, coffee, candles, and bath accessories. They also sell furniture and rugs as well. The employees are friendly and helpful. There were some beverages on the top shelves that I wanted to purchase and needed help to get them down. A female employee saw me looking at the beverages, she rolled over a ladder and got them down for me. The cashier that rang me up was Marc. He was kind and patient. I signed up for the free rewards membership. I got 15% off my entire purchase. I saved quiet a bit of money on this shopping trip. I will definitely be back to buy more stuff.

I like the rewards program so far at World Market and love that they have freebie days for members.

New glassware! These are really pretty & sturdy, made in Spain
Jennifer O.

I'm picky about glassware. But as my old drinking glasses broke one after the other because of being washed a thousand times, I started panic shopping online. I found nothing I liked. And the one place that fell off my radar (and shouldn't have) was Cost Plus World Market. Drinking glasses in a pretty hue of blue and made in Spain of recycled glass- take two boxes each in tall and short. And oh, are those the practically indestructible wine glasses I once had and loved? I found some that looked similar though not as heavy and sturdy as I remember but still great. But wait, they have so much more and their food and condiment section will tempt you with its wares. I don't regret a bit that I shopped late at night by light of my mobile phone and ordered strawberry-rhubarb jam, Buffalo cheese dip, dried "bistro blend" mushrooms, Asiago cheese crackers and spicy sweet Thai chili sauce. Plus I found liquid Barkeeper's Friend cleanser (say what, shortcut to cleanliness?) Employees at this store have mad customer loyalty skills (shoutout to Meredith) so much so that I had to call her manager, Barbara, to say thank you. I thank Yelpers for photos from this store: When they reopen I can't wait to peruse the spice section- looks so awesome- and cruise the aisles for imported pastas, sauces and wines. I forgot how much I missed Cost Plus World Market. I'm back!

Amazing customer service
Nick G.

This store not only provided me complimentary coffee at the front, they also provided the BEST CUSTOMER SERVICE from any retail store Ive experienced. Thanks for holding my gift at the lost and found overnight. Amazing snacks from all around the world too

Even though I've lived in Daly City for 18 years, I had never been to Bassett -- and now I'm wondering why! One day I walked in and met Charlotte Jaques, and that was truly my lucky day. Because of Charlotte, I found my new couch, my new chair, a beautiful piece of art, and even an étagère. She is a highly professional Certified Design Consultant, and she made the entire process so easy. Charlotte gave me excellent, detailed advice on colors, style, and how to design my living room. She also offered a generous discount, which I appreciated very much. After I placed my order, she kept me updated on delivery, and even called afterward to make sure I was happy with everything. I had an amazing experience with Charlotte -- she is talented, attentive, and truly cares about her customers.

PSA: NOT a full IKEA store…read more I purchased some furniture for pickup and it came within a few days. You have 5 days to pick up your order.

A clock I bought had some cosmetic damage and he just shipped me a replacement. Easy peasy - I dare say even more convenient than a regular IKEA store where you have to wait in line for pickup and walk / navigate far. Just wish that the inventory of the nearby stores could all be picked up at this Colma location (most items were available for pickup but not all). In and out within a few minutes, and a super convenient location for those coming from San Francisco so they don't have to cross toll or drive super far down to E Palo Alto!

Many of the shelves were messy, and in general, the most disorganized store that I've ever been into. The merchandise while new, wasn't exciting. It was older looking items. The disorganization didn't help. It was difficult to find items, because the layout of the store was also weird. They had tons of fake decorated wreaths. Something that I've not seen at other stores. I did manage to find a few spots of items that were put together, but none of it was interesting. There weren't any employees that I could find, expect for one lady at the register. I was looking for something specific, and asked the lady at the register if she knew where I could find it. Her reply was "no". That was my cue to leave. Peace out HomeGoods.

UPDATE!!!! Worst Customer Service Ever!…read moreBad practices, lack of communication with poor accountability. I designed my media room centered around the size, color and style of the loveseat. The other items I purchased all went very well together. I made this purchase in August 2025. The Maimz Loveseat with matching Ottoman, 4 Barstools, a Dropleaf Round Breakfast Table with matching 4 Chairs and assorted furniture including a bed, frame and swivel leather chair. Delivered February 21st 2026 They didn't let me know the loveseat would NOT be delivered. They canceled the order. No one knew what happened. It took over a week of me calling them. Finally someone at Corprate said they issued a refund in January, but failed to let me know through a call, text or email. There wasn't any paperwork confirming a refund transaction until March 3rd. Finally received an Email after over 8 phone calls to customer service, the store and the Philippines that the couch was discontinued. So I have an ottoman with no matching couch! Where did the refund money go? No paperwork, transaction number or notification. When asked where they sent it, they didn't know which bank account? Unacceptable follow up with nothing good in email, no detailed information at all. The worst customer service I have ever received . Sold me an an ottoman with no matching couch. That they finnaly issued a pickup for return, but never mentioned my refund! Poor excuse that it was discontinued, I had first dibs on the display couch. This was mine! Where did it go? I'm returning everything I purchased for this room from Ashley. But they are refusing to take back the barstools and Breakfast set. They left me high and dry like an empty airplane with passengers left in the terminal. The customer service is completely unacceptable. If i get one more AI Chat bot from Jenny, I'm going to scream. ---- Review I wrote when purchased: Miss Vivian is the BEST at this Colma location. She got me deals upon deals. I'll never forget the time she spent with me making my purchases, and all of the assisting staff and management. Each and every person and item is Top Notch! I can't wait to get these home just in time for the upcoming holidays. This location has good parking. Clean well displayed store. I found many items of interest. Will definitely shop at this location again in near future.

And in our case, it was well-deserved. Eun Soon greeted us and after letting her know what we were looking for, showed us some really interesting items. She showed us a sleeper from Finland which met all our needs. It was a Luonto Nico King sleeper. It would take a few weeks to get in. Semi, the other half of the store staff, was our contact after this point and she really delivered. After the sleeper was delivered, we noticed there was a 3cm gash in the corner of one of the arms. It matched a gash in the bubble wrap so probably happened in transit. Anyway, the manufacturer was not the most responsive in getting this addressed although they filed a claim with the freight company. After the Christmas holidays, we contacted the manufacturer again who then told us they could not give us information directly and we would have to work with Furniture Innovation. Bummer since it's been weeks since they were notified. We then got in touch with Semi, who promptly put in an order for the arm, which could be replaced instead of swapping the entire sleeper. The replacement part did not match the original so a new part had to be ordered. Instead of us waiting another few weeks for the replacement, FI removed an arm from one of the same sleepers they had in the store and had the repair team come back on the same day and swap out the arm. They knew we already waited weeks for a resolution and worked out something out so we didn't have to wait even longer. We very much appreciated the extra effort on their part to make sure we were taken care of. Also, much kudos to the delivery/repair team who also went above first noticing the part was not an exact match, then came back the same day to do the repair. We would definitely go back to Furniture Innovation for future purchases, which we're already thinking about. Great people to work with.
