I was impressed with this little shop and the behive of activity that was going on in and around this place when I arrived. I was treated politely and graciously.

“3/5/23 Urban farming in the middle of Compton! Support local farmers/vendors every other Sunday 8am-1 pmI was fortunate enough to tag along with my bro, test driving the Car of the Future-Faraday Future FF91. It's a triple treat: hanging out with my brother, visiting on the farms, riding in the car of the future. Life is an endless realm of possibilities!!The farm started with the crew's huddle right before 8am-inspirational! Bro & I checked out the farm & see what's growing: broccoli, radish, kale. Collard green, glowers & herbs. Bought a couple of bouquets & some raisin rolls.It's always so positively awesome after coming by & embracing nature's harvest, meeting the crew. Kudos to Richard, Mario & Mando-such friendly people. Highly recommend this place, it's small but big on freshness & customer service!!”

“I loved it. I was taken aback because of the location but let me tell you that after I walk in, I was transported to another dimension. There is valet parking, certainly a plus. Inside you are provided with every you need. The event took place worry free. I would def. recommend it. It made me appreciate what Los Angeles has to offer.”

“A friend of mine who volunteers her time with the Assistance League of Arcadia at the Bargain Box told me to check it out and so glad I did... 5 stars!!!!! If you are a fan of the Huntington Collection in Pasadena, you'll be sure to love the Bargain Box. Just like the Huntington Collection, I can't call it a thrift shop since it's not like any thrift shops I've been to! Looks more like an expensive antique shop when you step inside. I was blown away by the quality of the available merchandise, especially the housewares and decor. It's very evident that all of the pieces on sale were meticulously cleaned and staged by the hardworking staff. All of the furniture and housewares are excellent condition, not to mention very well priced. Make a point to visit before Halloween! The store is all decked out with Halloween decor! The Bargain Box is managed by the Assistance League of Arcadia, and one of their worthy endeavors is Operation School Bell, which provides much needed clothing as well as school supplies such as backpacks and books to children in need in neighboring local schools. There's a small parking lot but there should be plenty of street parking available if needed. Also, be aware that the store has limited hours since it's managed by volunteers. It's only open two days a week, Wednesdays and Saturdays, from 10am to 1pm.”

“I come here to play rec league soccer once a week (sunday), it's a nice park but they should probably staff it up a little bit, there was an assault in the bathroom on one of the rec league officials in the women's bathroom (by a man). An unusual occurrence to be sure but it happened and recently. They are doing some work on the park at the moment so part is torn up.Playground: Yes!Restrooms: Be careful!Dog-friendliness: Not sure.Picnic area: Nice, but you have to share space with the local unhoused and vagrant communities, it's as much their park as yours (Google maps user).”

The staff is super helpful, and the spaces, like the main room with a stage, and the basketball court (also has a stage) have bee really flexible and useful large spaces. There is a dedicated parking lot in back and there's usually ample street parking.”

“Store front is locked and closed due to a broken gate that has been broken for weeks. Wish Google Maps would update but they only have this information on Instagram. Waste of 2 hours in traffic plus Uber fees, but I still hope to make it back by here on a future trip to LA to buy some stuff in person, I like their mission and appreciate them. Just don’t appreciate that google maps doesn’t have accurate information.”

“Armory Center For The Arts is a non-profit community arts organization that offers arts education programs and contemporary art exhibitions in Pasadena, California. What is great about the Armory is their different programs such as art exhibits, workshops and art classes. Their current exhibit is the Plein Air which runs through Dec 10, 2023. It is a group exhibition that explores shifting ideas of western landscape, painting, and fieldwork. It's my first time visiting this museum. I spend no more than 40 mins to go through the entire art exhibit. Admission is free. Parking lot is next to the museum. Staff was cordial. Overall, I had a good time exploring their art exhibits.”
