    We had such a fun time pack to school shopping for my soon to be middle schooler! Found a matching outfit that my daughter loves! Found sparkly new vans and some other really cool stuff! Way cooler clothes than the mall and way more fun. We didn't buy the pink roller skates but they were so fun!

    Lisa is just the sweetest person! Found the coolest finds & couldn't be happier. There are unique pieces for great prices.

    Mahalo Lisa for helping find a dress for the FREF 70s Glam party. I received many compliments ...

    Mahalo Lisa for helping me find an outfit for the FREF 70s Glam party. I found your store on Yelp! When I walked in you, you were welcoming and I love the music that you were playing. Thank you for taking the time on helping me find an outfit. I will definitely be back soon.

    Longboard

    The Pac-Rat has a great selection of vintage and modern clothes, jewelry, home accessories and other beach-related items. Lisa gave me a great deal on a longboard, leash & surf shirt. If you're in San Clemente go check out the store. They have a great inventory that's always being updated and you're bound to find a great deal. Thanks, Lisa.

    A vintage Hilo Hattie dress from the pac rat store (vibrant purple, blue, and turquoise dress). Even found the matching belt there too!

    I popped inside San Clemente Antiques expecting the same kinda of antique alley, crammed with a lot…read moreof things, kinda overwhelming to browse. Instead, the store is spacious, airy for this kinda of a store, nicely organized. They also have new items on display, paintings, home decor, cool merchandise that would fit nicely in your place or make a good gift. A bit of local artists creations, Mexican pottery, a nice mix. They also have older items, a nice selection of more one of a kind, interesting things. Great place to browse and shop in, I really liked their merchandise, more interesting and fresh!

Unfortunately, I didn't purchase it that day and it was gone when I came by today. BUT I found an Olympia SM8 instead and I took it home with me. It is GORGEOUS and in excellent condition. There are some minor paint drips on some of the keys and other surfaces from the previous owner, but nothing that prevents it from functioning as it should. Already popped in new typewriter ribbon, as I had an extra spool from owning an Olympia SM3. Excited to write on this! The people who work here are really sweet and helpful. Cash and cards accepted. Looks like most antique shops, but very organized. Definitely check it out if you're ever in San Clemente.

    I tried going to this place once when it was located in Capo Beach some time back. At that time, I…read morefound the clothes to be very overpriced and worn out and, in some cases more than the same thing new. Then I found out they are all there on consignment, and the owner, a very nasty female, taking exorbitant commissions as her 'fee.' So the other day I was in SC and so I popped in and brought home some used garments in my size. (Still overpriced I see). After wearing a shirt from them, I got the most awful rash of my life and had go to my derm doc, taking the garment with me and found out the garment was loaded with something akin to bed bugs and they bit me all to heck and back. I had to take medicine to get over it and it took over two weeks to resolve. When I asked the owner for a refund, (very nasty lady, did I mention that, rude and condescending), telling her what happened, she flatly refused and so I ended up throwing the garment away! Awful place. Awful owner. Check her other reviews - she was asked to leave Capo Beach by the city of Dana Point and had awful reviews from many people in Dana Point so she fled. STAY AWAY!!

    We parked to go inside and got yelled at for parking to go into pizza port. If your an avid pizza…read moreport goer you park on the street above! Wasn't in the mood to actually go inside after. Decided to give it a second chance and go in with a friend, they have a huge inventory and lots of cute things! I found a scarf I really liked but it didn't have a price tag on it so I went to the counter and I'm guessing from previous reviews was the owner. She told me $60 because it was silk but the tag said it was a polyester blend..... could get a silk scarf for $20 from another store on Del Mar.
