Had some spare time to pass, prior to me checking in for my dental appointment. So I stopped in here. And let me tell you from the moment myself and my kids walked in the door to our whole shopping experience not one store associate acknowledge just to say hello nor did anyone ask if we needed any assistance with anything or to welcome us in. Based on that alone can't say that I would visit this particular location again. I purchased one item and my daughter purchased three small food items. The young lady at the register was probably the only acknowledgment that we received during our checkout process. The store was clean and organized. But won't be any rush to return to this location One star for being open, one star for purchasing something, and one star for the Associate during our process of purchasing our items read more

See all

On December 23, 2024, my sister and I were racially profiled while shopping at the Modesto World Market. The store was well-stocked--with security and retail personnel who followed us through every single aisle, making the experience highly uncomfortable and degrading. Their excessive surveillance and suggestive comments implying we were stealing left us feeling stripped of dignity and embarrassed to be spending our hard-earned money there. We left and returned 10 minutes later, hoping to finish shopping, but the harassment resumed immediately. Security even followed us to our car, lingering as we tried to process the humiliating experience. This was blatant racial profiling. World Market, do better. No one should have to endure this kind of treatment. read more

I walked in and didn't get greeted by the 2 girls at the register. They proceeded to chat away instead of acknowledge anyone walking through the door. Same when I went to check out. I was the one who had to say "thank you, have a great night!" I hate rude workers. Makes me not want to shop at the store again. read more

World market always has the food. I am craving that I grew up with. The seasonal selection is also wonderful as well.

Just want to thank Scott for all the help has done today in my shopping! He was so helpful and friendly. read more

I've been to the Modesto store three times in the last few days. Love everything that I purchases but unfortunately three times with three different employees the customer service was poor. They all are friendly until you ask them a question or have a coupon that is not the right one. Then they become curt with their answers, impatient and their facial expressions actually turn sour. It's all unfortunate because I love WM. Hoping that staff receive some customer service training because it seems to be store wide. Are they modeling poor management? I don't know but I hope to see improvement with their service. read more

I've had to return an item today. The manager Scott was outstanding. The level of customer service was spot on. This is one of my favorite places to shop and I love shopping at this particular store because all of the employees are so helpful and willing to go the extra mile. In an age where Service is a dying breed the store really went out of their way to accommodate me and my family today. We are happy customers and we will be returning. Thank you so much. read more

Wow I must say WorldMarket Modesto CA ROCKS!!!!! Jessica truly made my day....much thanks from Portland Oregon! My brand new Adirondack Chair cushion got damage and none of the stores here in Portland had any.... in fact WorldMarket Customer Care was absolutely no help...1 star for them...however Ariel here from the Tigard Store found one Adirondack Chair in stock at the Modesto Ca store...I called spoke with Jessica and asked if I could buy the cushion....she said the 1 chair left is damaged and I just threw it out....! She was able to retrieve the cushion and sent it to me free....wow I must say THAT IS TRUE CUSTOMER SERVICE!! MANAGERS !!! You have one awesome employee who went above and beyond you ROCK Jessica! She should be promoted!!! Thank you again!!!! Tracy! read more

Updated: i decided to change my review only because response regarding my situation from world Market manger was so prompt. Thanks Lisa This place is nice to pick unique items. I spent over $2500 in furniture. They signed me up with rewards program. I got $120 back in rewards. Once you buy any item with reward money pretty much you cant return it. So be careful what you buy with rewards. Seems like their employees are not comfortable returning items. We are doing whole house remodel. Once we changed floor their were few items i had to return but for $120 i spent they were giving me only $20 back because i used my rewards. It just makes no sense to me. There has to be a system where you dont feel stuck with items you buy with your reward money. read more

I understand kicking out people for not wearing a mask because they don't want to wear it (that's rude), but when it's a actual medical reason, that's a line crossed. Thats discrimination of a disability and no we can't always stay home like the argumentative employee said. Can a store deny service to a person with a disability because his or her disability or behavior resulting from the disability may be disturbing to other customers? No. The ADA specifically prohibits this type of discrimination against people with disabilities. Point? You can kick out mask less people is they just don't wanna, but when it's medical related you legally cannot. read more

AMAZING customer service! Honestly I've shopped here for a long time but had to share because Ive never experienced this great of service going to that store! A huge thank you to Scott the assistant manager for being so helpful, going OUT of his way to help me with some items and holding onto his word of calling me to let me know about the items I requested. You seriously don't get that kind of service at these retail stores anymore so I wanted to make sure this store is aware of the EXTRA EFFORT and great service he is doing! Thanks again Scott!! read more

Cost Plus is one of those places where I can always find something unique and fun. One of my favorite times of the year to visit is during the holiday season. They have some wonderful gift wrap and gift boxes. I love how the designs change from year to year! I always purchase a bunch of the adorable "take-out" boxes to box up Christmas cookies for friends and family. They also have a lot of specialty food items, especially this time of year. Being Italian one of my favorites is the Torrone, a traditional Italian Christmas treat my family enjoys. There are oodles of candies and treats that would make the perfect stocking stuffer for that person who is rather picky (ahem, like me). ;) read more

Hands down one of my favorite stores and they know they have a hold on me because I keep earning those $10 certificates through their Explorers program. The clerks there are always so friendly and the store itself is always well-stocked. I almost always make a beeline to their food section because I never know what I am going to find that I can't find elsewhere! Now to work on not coming as often...that's the greatest joke I've ever told myself! read more

Oh man, I forgot the name of the lady who helped today. I came in to pick up a loveseat and I was waiting outside for my sister to come with a truck (it didn't fit in my car). I was waiting outside by myself because the store had just closed. Well my sister took a long time and one of the workers there waited with me outside before she went home. I couldn't believe!!! That was soooo nice of her. She was already off the clock! All of the employees there are super nice, but that employee went above and beyond! I will definitely will be coming here more often. They have EXCELLENT customer service Her name is Amber! read more

I hadn't been to a Cost Plus for a long time! I used to go with my mom all the time when I was little, growing up in San Francisco and I used to love getting candy and looking at all the cool unique things with my mom. Walking in here today gave me a overwhelming sense of welcoming and nostalgic feeling. I loved EVERYTHING that I saw here and really feel like a lot of the things they sell match my ora and vibe. I have been doing a lot of my decor shopping at Pier 1 Imports... but I truly believe this is my new favorite store and I will be back for more decor, clothes, garden stuff, pillows, buddahs, rugs, furniture etc. I'm in love! read more

Last night we were in costplus looking for dining room chairs to match our table, Melissa was the one helping us and she was a rockstar. We were trying to piece together chairs, and it was a 2 hour process and Melissa really helped us and helped us get chairs matched to the table! It was a great experience with her helping, I will definitely be walking in to have her help me again!!! read more

I've been shopping at World Market since around 2003. I'm not sure about when they became part of Cost Plus, whatever that is. I hadn't seen them since I left the Orlando, Florida area. They have some interesting furniture and household items, and they're a good alternative to Pier 1 Imports. Their pricing is similar to Pier 1, unfortunately. They're always friendly from store to store, this one being just as good. Some things are a bit crowded but they have a lot to see. I wanted some furniture and I'm not sure it's good or not. The sale prices make it more appealing. read more

Donovan huge shout out and to Joe who helped me when there was some computer glitches in ordering online. Donovan went out of his way to pull each item before the order came thru. I was visiting from 4 1/2 hours away so even if the order didn't go through it was still ready for me to manually purchase at the register. What an excellent team through COVID and technical issues Team Modesto pulled it off big time. They were all so nice and patient and calm and helpful. They reassured me it would happen and it did beautifully! These guys rock! Thank you! read more

This is one of my favorite stores to shop at, especially given a recent move which has prompted some redecorating. I typically engage with very helpful and kind employees, but I think those shopping online and picking up in store should be aware: while it's only supposed to remain a pending transaction until you pickup the item, you do get charged for items before pickup. For me, it wasn't a big deal initially, but became stressful when they do not provide a receipt for a return of a $400 item. I tried to show the employee, Shawnee (sp?) that my card had in fact been charged, not pending, and she continued to argue with me it wasn't and she was just canceling the item. She continued to show her annoyance with me when I inquired further. Trust me, the customer is not "always right", but some attempt to be understanding and empathetic would have shown much better customer service in managing my problem. But I won't let Shawnee ruin my whole view of the store and will keep going in hopes I have better interactions with others as I have before! read more

When I had gone into the store I realized that one of my items had been expired. Upon returning it, for whatever reason it became an issue. I was utterly confused as to why worlds market, which I once upheld so high in the grocery food chain would ever do this to a regular like me. The supervisor Vanessa was called but it only got extensively worse from there. After her racial slurs, horrible attitude and very unprofessional service, I had walked out not only disappointed, but with expired items still in hand. read more

Brenda was awesome! We came through today and purchased a rug, chair & of course some of the unique food items you can find here. Brenda bent over backwards to help us & answer questions - above and beyond what you would find elsewhere. The large items were in stock and we ended up dealing with a few others at this location - everyone was super nice, helpful, and genuine. read more

I don't know what's going on with Cost Plus as a brand but this location is one of my favorites. I never leave empty handed. I use to go to the Pleasanton/Dublin location but no longer. The last 4 times I have gone in that location over the last 6 months, they look like they are going out of business. I was greeted warmly and asked several times through my adventure if I needed assistance. The wine steward noticed my choices and offered others I may like that were on sale! I just felt noticed and valued and that is rare to feel like in stores anymore. Thank you to this locations staff and management for giving me the Cost Plus experience I have grown up knowing and loving! read more

This is one of the best World Markets I've been too. Great selection and great prices. I stop by this past weekend and got way more then I expected. Be careful it adds up quick.. lol.. plenty of parking, clean store and restrooms. Friendly staff, next time I'm in town I will definitely stop by again. read more

I can't complain, I purchased a TV stand and side table from here, its dark cherry wood, made in Thailand & purchased a matching end table... They granted my discount that expired from the weekend prior, due to low inventory on the item from the Coleman Cost Plus. The guy helped carry the stuff in my friend's truck, and super friendly folks working the register. The awesome guy made sure to load the undamaged box and made sure the box was secure in my friend's truck. read more

While shopping in here last night and trying to do a I-Phone check in I realized that this store was still listed on Sisk Rd. I like shopping here cuz they have some wines and some coffee's that I can't get anywhere else. Also a very nice place to pick up some stocking stuffers. read more

Love stopping in here after or before Costco shopping trip, that is if I haven't already dropped a few hundred at Costco lol. But I really can't complain because I have found some pretty awesome pieces for our home and at some reasonable rates. Needed a night stand that was tall enough for my side of our bed and found one here that was perfect and matched the rest of our master bedroom furniture! You can always get stuck browsing and staff is pretty nice in helping you or giving you that space you need to just browse. read more

Came in yesterday because I got a 15% off coupon for my birthday since I am an explorer member. Was looking for their vintage coffee grinder, but they didn't have in stock. What seemed to be the manager, offered to order for me since it was on back order. I declined and ended up purchasing a couple of bags of coffee instead. The store is clean and well organized. Easy to navigate with everything being in sections. The checkout person seemed very annoyed and was rude when I told her I had a coupon for my birthday after she rang my items in and said, "You should have told me that before." I had to log in from the email World Market sent me, and bring it up. One, there wasn't even a line. Two, it only took one minute. Her annoyance shined through her "Thank you, and see you again next time." read more

So many things to see here. Pro tip leave kids at home as they will distract you with snacks lol

Love this place and all the yummy goodies, and cool toys they have here. If you need a special gift this is were you go,I love the beverage assortment to the Japanese soda, to the adult beverages. I love Japanese candy and treats. This store always has an assortment. It's nice because you don't have to drive to San Francisco or San Jose to go get it. I'm not sure who checked me out, I didn't catch her name tag. But she had a personality on her. She was spunky, funny, and loved her job. I will continue to come here for fun gifts and special goodies for me. read more

I don't know much about furniture and world market stuff, but this place has sold our family reliable furniture at a reasonable price. It's also a decent place for husbands to hang out while wives shop. Way better than a visit to Sephora (nothing against the store, but there's nothing for me to do). The staff is helpful and know about the place they work (what a novel idea). read more

Scott and arianna were amazing help. What customer service is supposed to be about. Arianna is always so sweet when checking out

Cost Plus is awesome! They have a great selection of wines and the way it is organized by country is fantastic. They always have nice discounts on various wines as long as you are a member of the free rewards program. There is no reason not to be a member. I mean, they give you rewards and discounts-with minimal emails and spam. When I was younger, I used to think Cost Plus was only for old yuppy, granola type people. Either I have become one of them or Cost Plus has changed their game a bit. I went there for Christmas this year and bought 12 people gifts with less than $200. Cheap crappy gifts you might think? No-everyone SAID they loved them! Although I guess they could have lied! Anything you think you might need-check there first! Furniture-YES! Wine-YES! Food-YES! Accesories-YES! Housewares-YES! Skip Pier One, Bev Mo (unless you need hard alcohol), and TJ Maxx Home Section...Go to Cost Plus! read more

Most people say they can't leave Target without buying at least 3 things that weren't on their list. Cost Plus World Market is MY Target. From their wall decor {paintings, photos, frames, mirrors, etc} to all the cool food they carry, I am a huge fan! That doesn't even begin to describe my love for all their dinnerware, serveware, drinkware, flatware and table linens. On my recent visit, they had a ton of summer items on sale, so I was able to get quite a bit for only $30. The only thing I am not crazy about is that they are located 30 minutes away from where I live...but that might actually be a good thing on my wallet! ;-) read more

Love to the Modesto Store! Visiting Santa Rosa Cost Plus, I purchased tons of items for prize baskets which were a huge hit at my work event. Unfortunately, I was charged for some items which were actually not mine. I live in Modesto and didn't discover the error until completing my expense report two weeks later. Hoping my local store could somehow help, I visited the Pelandale branch. Bruce and the general manager reviewed the situation and my receipt. Not only did they take care of the incorrect charge, they were friendly and professional. Amazing, I'm definitely making it my go-to shop! read more

Huge shout out to Caroline & Jill for their hard work on the overall look at the store on Hwy 280 Birmingham AL. Everything looked so fresh and neatly organized. It's so sad to see how shopping has changed this past year with the pandemic, this is why I felt good visiting there last Saturday 02/27/2020. I was kindly greeted as I walked in. I was also approached by a nice gentleman working there, asking if I was finding everything I needed. I love shopping at this location and always get the best customer service. I love shopping at World Market. read more

Stopped in today to use my birthday $10 off coupon and to purchase limoncello bottles. Unfortunately they do not have any nor do they have any available for back order in fact they may discontinue the product:( always helpful staff and neat trinkets. read more

After selecting a dinning room table and waiting 3 weeks to pay for it, all of the associates were amazing, helpful and friendly. I will be returning to THIS location. read more

A Pier One on 'roids , but not too girly so you don't feel like your "boys" have un-descended (or re-ascended) when you leave the store. Some good prices, some bad. Overall a good selection.. and they do have some decent wines. If you want to spend a good solid hour browsing just for the heck of it, you can; and you will end up buying something you didnt really need, but now you want. Today I ended up with basil gnocchi, and some sweet potato gnocchi. Plan on making a brown butter sauce and having them with a chilled chardonnay. SUNDAY EVENING is DOWN!! read more

Great store for a variety of products and good wine selection. This store is oddly laid out and that along with smaller than usual selection is the reason for 3 stars. Every other Cost Plus I've been to has had larger food and merchandise sections. This one has a good wine selections but is lacking everywhere else. read more

Everything you can think of! Cost Plus is one of my favorite stores. I actually get giddy when I get to come by and browse the store for seasonal candies and foods to even getting decorations for my room. I always find the coolest and most interesting items in this store. There is something for everyone. Much like a trendy Pier 1 mixed with an international candy store. read more
