There were SO many beautiful things to choose from this artistically curated shop. Intimate and inviting, I recommend it without hesitation or reservations... NOTE: Dimples is located at 1442 Walnut Street in Berkeley! We, too, went to the original address (See Kasey L.'s review) and just by luck found the new location. What's up with that GOOGLE?

It's very cute and cozy in the evening/at night, especially after the rain and with those lights. It's not a big street and there's a limited number of shops, but it's nice to take a quick stroll down. I'll be honest, none of the shops here are really from brands or stores I would normally shop at (lol rich people stores), so we really didn't stop by a lot of them and most of them were closing for the evening anyways (I have learned that lots of things in the Bay Area close quite early). There's some street parking and some parking lots but it looked quite packed. Not sure what it's like on a non-rainy day.

I've been selling my her clothes at Valentine's for the past couple years and find the process (text for a time, schedule a drop off, hear back by text about store credit/when you can come back and pick up) easy. The owner has a great eye. I never leave Valentine's empty handed. It's tiny and packed to the gills with amazingness, both new and used.

I got a honey latte (as I have found honey is a bit easier on my body due to health issues) but my partner ordered the Kuro latte and that was SO GOOD as well! Staff seem friendly and willing to help you make choices. Overall, do think this is a great place to stop by whether you're in the mood for light shopping, coffee, or both. Love it here and will be back since I live close by.

There were about 4 customers in the store and a security guard up front. I was never greeted or asked if I needed any help with looking for something. The vibes were definitely off. Asking for a size in the shoe I wanted felt like I was bothering the employees. I made my purchase and got out of there. Not even a thank you or have a great day was said. The customer service definitely needs work.

This store, to me, was a really pricey Nike Store with a very limited selection…read more But maybe, because I was here during the holidays, that might explain the limited selection part. Located in the Fourth Street Shopping Center in Berkeley, I only found a few things that interested me, but maybe i'm used to the Nike Outlet prices, because these seemed rather high.

I loved being able to donate 5 old shirts and get $25 off. Amazing concept to prevent waste. Unfortunately, they switched up the Re-Spun program. Now you have to pay $22 to fill a bag of clothes to get a $40 code (so you basically get $18 only) that you're not able to reuse if your item doesn't fit and you need to exchange or return it. I had an interaction with a super rude Berkeley sales associate who hadn't even heard of Re-Spun...really?!! Why work for a company whose recycling program you don't understand? Kinda sad.

Rating: 5/5 Stars If you're heading to Sports Basement…read moreBerkeley to gear up for the season, do yourself a favor and ask for BRANDON C. I came in needing a full "head-to-toe" setup for winter sports, and Brandon provided the kind of elite, professional service that is rare to find. His technical knowledge of snowboards, skis, and bindings is extensive; he doesn't just know the specs, he understands how the gear actually performs on the mountain. What really stood out, however, was his approach. He took the time to listen to my specific needs and concerns, making me feel both seen and heard throughout the process. I walked out (after 2.5 hours that flew by) not only with the right equipment but with the confidence I needed to get back out there. Whether you're a seasoned pro or a beginner, I'd recommend Brandon C. to anyone. He's a true professional who knows his craft inside and out. Thank you again Brandon C and SB and NIN.

My biggest issue here is no longer the exchange itself -- it is the people representing your…read morecompany at the counter. The reality is that rude, dismissive customer service drives people away. Customers can tolerate mistakes. Customers can tolerate policy issues. What people do not tolerate is being treated as though they are an inconvenience when they walk into a store prepared to spend money. I spent nearly 50 minutes looking for replacement shoes after following the instructions given by your staff. I returned to the counter and was met with an attitude that made the entire experience feel unnecessarily unpleasant. That kind of interaction leaves a much bigger impression than any return policy ever could. You should seriously consider the long-term impact of allowing employees to interact with customers in this way. One negative interaction may seem small in the moment, but over time those experiences absolutely cost business. People remember how they were treated. I can say with certainty that experiences like this make customers question where they want to spend their money in the future. If I have to choose between dealing with rude and dismissive interactions versus shopping somewhere that values customer service and basic professionalism, the decision becomes very easy. I think your management team should understand that poor customer interactions do not simply create one unhappy customer -- they create people who share those experiences with family, friends, coworkers, and others making decisions about where to shop.
