Prices were on the higher side, which isn't surprising for the area, but it was still fun to browse. A bit disappointing that several stores were closed during my visit, so it felt quieter than expected. I've heard they host a Poodle Parade here, which sounds adorable -- I would've loved to see that! Overall, a pleasant but not particularly memorable stop.

Just had an awful experience with Mike the crossroads employee. Maybe he's been here too long maybe…read morehe needs a raise? In the dark at 530 this morning he placed cones behind my car. He was wearing all black so I didn't know who the person was or why he was doing that and I didn't confront him. He then walked away. Imagine you pull into a public parking lot open to the public, run in to Safeway and get coffee and a donut and sit in your car to read emails while you have your morning snack and along comes a guy in all black who starts placing cones around your car. I waited until he was gone and I got out to move them so I could leave and out of no where he comes running up saying 'I'll do that!' Looking back on it all I was parked at the end of a row of spaces so he could have coned off all the spaces except mine and none of this confrontation would happen. Anyway while he moves the cones he asks if I work there. What the heck? You're in all black placing cones around cars early in the morning and then asking people if they work for Safeway? I ask him if he works there because he is the one placing cones around cars. I called the management to complain and got an actual human being on the third call. So grateful for that! That's excellent customer service. Expressed my concern and then found the guy again later who now had on a high vis vest on and driving an official crossroad vehicle. When I asked him for his name (Mike) he asked for mine. Seemed a bit confrontational when I told him I wasn't giving my name. I'm the customer who was trying to use services provided by the crossroads shopping center being treated poorly by untrained staff with a police ego, bad form crossroads. Do better. Stop confronting customers after hours in the dark while wearing all black.

It doesn't matter what time of day you go or to what store ...the entire plaza looks like a trash dump. In front of VONS and the cleaners and the bank the trash cans are always overflowing and there is trash blowing all over the lawn and sidewalks. I don't understand how anybody who owns a business in there can walk into their store and walk by all the trash and not do something about it. I have taken my business elsewhere. It's starting to look like downtown Santa Cruz.

No one wants to listen to the banging & yelling of skateboarders while they're trying to enjoy a relaxing dinner, and last time I was there, one driver in the parking lot was yelling obscenities at another driver & threatened to "cap" them. This doesn't create an atmosphere that's going to attract families or out-of-town visitors. Perhaps it's time for University Plaza to invest in a security guard or two.
