“We bought our tickets on line, parking wasn't too bad as we arrived at 9:30, parking cost was hourly @2.50. Line to get in got pretty long but we were in the beginning of it. I went straight to the pottery and put myself on the list, they had a cancellation and I got right in. I loved "throwing a bowl" it was so much fun, watched "Muffin" blow some glass, she was working a heart that was for a senior that her husband passed away and was provided some of the husbands ashes and added them to the glass, it was so beautiful. I will provide a picture of her card so you can check out her work. It was so awesome to watch this process. The hot cocoa was so delicious it had some extra cinnamon and was amazing. Lived looking around at the artists creations! Magic show and pictures with Santa. We plan to come every year and make it an annual seasonal trip. I recommend this event to anyone!”
“I came here with another organization yesterday and was very impressed. You can tell that a lot of effort and love was put into this place. There's such a large variety of native and edible plants and trees that were all over the property. One spot, you can find an apple tree and peach tree with some native sage, and another you can find an orange tree with a passionfruit vine nearby.The recently-opened Cafe had limited options during the time being, but it makes sense given that it's still winter and they cook with what they grow on site. The cauliflower soup and focaccia were very delicious and well-seasoned.The market seriously tickled my brain on how amazing everything looked. I got some soap and tomato passata. The soap smelt lovely, and the passata tasted very nice. The staff in the market are very friendly and helpful and recommended extremely delicious donuts from the laguna baking co. The prices are comparable to farmer's market prices, which tend to be on the higher end. However, after hearing how well-paid and compensated the farmers are, it's worth every penny.If you're a fan of local and sustainably-sourced food, along with ethical practices, then this is the place for you.”
“Awesome organization. Friendly people and wonderful examples of people who love volunteering to benefit the community. I recently volunteered at the Elk Ladies Fashion Show which is so popular within the community that tickets sold out in record time! Everyone was happy and worked together as a team. I highly recommend this organization.”
“My wife and I would come here back in the early 90s before we moved away. We would come and visit the cats and play with them. Our favorite was Romeo who was a huge orange lover boy, we miss him....”
“The staff are kind and clothing Selection is amazing. Most important to me is they are a charitable organization where most profit goes to families in need. I always donate here and I try to buy as much as a I can haha”
“I am beyond thankful for this Boys and Girls Club! The adults who run this organization are truly caring and dedicated to the children. My son has such a wonderful time here, and it gives me incredible peace of mind knowing he's in good hands with people who genuinely care about his well-being.
This place is an absolute gem in our community! From their fantastic (and affordable) summer camp and sports programs to the reliable after-school care, they offer an invaluable resource for families in our community.”
“Went for bingo night it was a great time. We had never been there before everybody was extremely outgoing and nice! Also had never played bingo at an official bingo hall everyone was more then willing to help explain the rules and diffrent games. I definitely recommend!But get there early because it was packed.”
“Stayed in the City of Laguna Woods for a week We rented a beautiful Airbnb We did some grocery shopping, got my car washed ect The entire time we were staying in this town we felt very safe City is beautiful CLEAN and near the Irvine Spectrum and lots of other great areas rt off of the freeway Everyone seems friendly and nice We had no issues We had a great time staying here and visiting”
“Adopted our Dolly three months ago with the help of Doggie Bonez. She is now settling in with our family and despite her early stories of a horrific life she is, as advertised, the sweetest girl full of love!!! Thank you ever so much Jacqueline!”
“Not only are the staff extremely helpful and kind, the pricing is kind and there are plenty of treasures to find. There is always an ornate antique piece of furniture, some interesting art, and boutique clothing items. There always seems to be a selection of brand new items as well strategically placed at the front of the store. Seems like red-tagged nick-knacks are always 50%off. Shopping here will result in interesting finds and all for a great cause.”

“Service and staff are always perfect. Great events throughout the year. One of the best private clubs in Orange County.I have held a few private events here both for golf and for parties and service has been excellent!”
“2 years ago we adopted Dusty and Dolly from this agency. These 2 Russian blues are the loves of our lives and we can't thank the rescuer and agency we worked with enough!???????”
“My son goes to the Boys and Girls Club in Laguna Beach. He absolutely loves all the things it has to offer and the teammates who work there. Together they have made it an amazing experience for him!”
“We went there with a group of friends and everyone was so happy and friendly. I enjoyed their tour and the history of the place, plus the stunning views of the mountains and Laguna Beach.”
“Beautiful store and cause to help our community. People help People! Thank you Michelle for your assistance today. We love everything we purchased and will share with the community your mission. Thank you!”
“The Laguna Niguel Chamber of Commerce is a great organization that brings together local OC businesses and entrepreneurs to drive COMMERCE! I’ve had nothing, but great experiences in the last 5 years as a member. Their ability to juggle local government, community events, philanthropy and still drive value for small business members (like myself) is what keeps me renewing my membership year after year. Dianne Smith is one of the great people that just happens to be an integral part of the cohesiveness of this chamber, but the recent addition of Scott Alvey as the LNCC president has added a new dimension, his ability to pivot with the emergence of Covid-19 in the face of adversity by embracing technology that he has leveraged to cope and improve the LNCC shows the progressive nature of this chamber. Needless to say, I highly recommend the LNCC and would encourage anyone serious about doing business in Orange County to come and check them out for yourself!”
“I grew up in this town and AL has, thankfully, been around forever! Always friendly, clean and great items to find! It's a treat that they have a "high end/designer" section where you can really find some goodies! They also put so much energy into restocking the store for every holiday. Need a Christmas or Hanukkah decoration or gift? They have it in time. Thanksgiving? Dishes, placemats etc all for the season. Halloween..it's a must! It's ongoing.The other part I really appreciate is the organized drop off of items donated. I donate throughout the year. There are designated days and times. Easy to pull up and park in the back lot, be greeted by the staff, they take care of you immediately and offer you a receipt for a tax write off if you wish. AL is so different from many of the disappearing Thrift Shops. It is deeply cared for by the residents of Laguna, (hey, it can become a gab fest with old friends you run into) and also by the VOLUNTEERS who donate their time to keep it thriving. Thank you AL !”
“My daughter had a basketball game here, and while the address is correct, the Google Maps location name is wrong. It’s called The Pavilion.
What’s Actually Here:
• Indoor basketball court
• Outdoor basketball court
• Playground area
It’s a well-maintained space that’s perfect for youth sports and family gatherings if you have access.
Google Maps should update the name to reflect its true identity.”
“Jesus has been the greatest help! I always make sure I email/ go to him when needing help with something. He explains everything thoroughly, has the best energy, is so polite, professional, patient, and helpful with everything I’ve ever gone to him with. Thank you, Jesus, and good job for hiring an incredible employee!”
“We volunteered as a family here, and looking to make this something we do often. It was a well organized food pantry, and it appears to be helping a lot of families. My kids initially signed up through National Jr. honor society, and I accompanied them to volunteer. It was a great experience for all of us! Over the years, I often find ways to give back to society. I am glad my kids found joy in giving back, and hopefully this will be apart of their community involvement into adulthood. It was clean, the staff took time out to help guide us through their process, and it felt safe with many protocols in place to maintain order. All food banks are cold, but you warm up once work begins. With the VOMO App, you can find other opportunities to help their organization and others in your area. We are kicking off Spring Break this year with a morning of volunteer hours since school will be out. Family bonding can take place in many ways, and this is one that I highly encourage for other families (even if you are not religious and this is a 'ministry'). This act is about giving back to other humans.Side note: you must wear closed toed shoes for safety.”
“My name is Emily and I recently left an abusive relationship after the neighbor called the police they showed up and I grabbed all my stuff and left. Now have no place to go other then return to his home. Can you guys help me? I don't want to go back”

“First time here. I am an Uber driver so I stop at thrift stores all over California. This will be added to my favorites when I’m in Laguna Beach. It’s cute and organized. Prices are super affordable the way thrifting should be.”
