If I could leave less than one star I would. The employees working at this location are incredibly rude and if you are a person of color I do not recommend this location at all. No seriously, go to another location.
The signs of racism were apparent and made this shopping experience super uncomfortable. My boyfriend, who is brown presenting was being watched by what looked like to be the store manager. (tall white woman, blonde hair) This continued as we browsed throughout the store. Everything we touched or glanced at was met with someone watching us either right over our shoulder or at the corner of our eye. They tried to be slick while doing this but you can feel when someone is staring at you.
We were being constantly asked "are you finding everything okay" very very close to our faces. While no one else was approached at the store. I had an awful experience in the fitting room area with a short woman who wore glasses, very rude and looked disappointed when I left one item with her and took the other with me.
We were both dressed well and I purchased something but the employees made us both feel incredibly uncomfortable and awkward. I own a coin purses that I purchased at a different Anthropologie location and the look I received when I pulled it out of my purse WHILE I WAS PAYING was awful. The employee commented and said "OH you have one of those? We have those here". I'm still unsure what this employee meant by this but the glare she gave me was super uncomfortable.
I will be shopping online or at any other location after this experience.
I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS LOCATION AT ALL. GO SOMEWHERE ELSE. Santa Anita mall, Victoria Gardens and the OC locations have much...
Read moreIf you are comfortable with being followed by employees while you shop, then consider stopping by this store. I used to enjoy going to the original location in Pasadena, and was always warmly welcomed. During a very recent trip, I didn't realize that my child and I were being watched at the store (just thought employees just happen to show up in each section of the store we were in) until we arrived at the counter ready to pay. They used as unusual phrase to refer to us: there are friends at the counter (looking back possibly code for something). I found this unusual at the time. Although there were already two cashiers present and no one in line, we had to wait for a third cashier to help us. After paying, we perused a small display of large items that caught our eye; as we headed out, one of the workers happened to be watching the exit area when we left (didn't see anyone there when we entered the store to shop). Could all be coincidental, but the entire shopping trip didn't sit right with me. Not sure why we were targeted--we are mixed race; we dressed really casually--tee, shorts, sandals; who knows? I must add that I haven't experienced this with all employees at the store, and have overall had no issues in the past, but this experience is the reason I will not...
Read moreThis Anthro gets it wrong ALL. THE. TIME. And it's a shame bc I can walk to this location from my apartment. Prices are constantly incorrect- Most recently (today) inquired abt a dress in the sale section to make sure price tag was correct (Sale items usually have red markdown price or another price on top of the normal price- This did not) and in fitting room attendant was certain the price marked was absolutely correct. No, "Let me double check for you" and no, "Let me see if one of my associates can check". Just plain old "Oh yeah that's the sale price we probably just forgot to put it in red" despite the tag clearly being the original price tag. I left the dress there (NO SALE FOR YOU!) then checked my phone when I got back home. The price, indeed, was incorrect and the sale price was actually HALF of what was on the tag. I've purchased other HOME sale items here in the past only to find the very same day upon returning home that the sale price should've been half the price. Buyer beware and check your phone before buying from this location. Not sure if it's sales associate laziness or...
