Store has a good selection of merchandise for fair prices. Today the cashier that checked me out was super friendly and cheerful. That makes such a difference in my shopping experience. I like the Target concept of a one stop shopping store. I love that I can get my groceries while picking up some cleaning items and sporting goods. Super cool!

Target is always one of my favorite stores to shop at, very clean and prices are good, products are high quality. The staff are friendly and helpful. Online purchase is easy. I highly recommend target. The one near me is the one on Los Osos in San Luis Obispo..

The cashier I had was absolutely wonderful! He asked me who I was buying all the gift cards for and when I told him that I was the Director of a nonprofit, he thanked me and explained that he was concerned since I was an older person purchasing many cards and he was aware of scam artists that prey on people asking them to purchase gift cards. I was delighted that he was looking out for your customers.

Targets curbside pickup experience is wonderful. I was in the middle of a project and was able to get what I needed without having to clean up. Saved me a lot of time.

Clean, not too crowded and convenient. They didn’t have everything in stock such as water and some price tags were missing so I didn’t know how to compare prices. Like that everyone was wearing a mask and they have self checkout.

For a big box store, as good as it gets. Actually had a stock clerk come up and ask if I was finding everything OK. Prices not as cheap as some others, but clean and organized. Quick checkout.

Gotta love it when an employee steals your pickup order. Horrible customer service. Ive had a pickup order sitting in the store for 3 weeks. Defeats the purpose of this being a convenient option.

Alright, I love Target just as much as the next girl. Id even call it an enthusiastic dependency. However, the state this particular Target is consistently in is despicable. To say shelves are poorly stocked would be a devastating understatement. Often, a product will be out of stock for weeks on end leaving the shelf empty with no option even to order through the app or website. Shelves and aisles are a complete disaster with product all over the place as if no one ever attends to them or makes even the smallest effort to clean up and reorder anything. This makes shopping here excruciating. I hold Target to a higher standard but Ive legit seen thrift shops with neater, better stocked shelves than this pitiful Target. SLO is a nice city. We live in a nice location. However, this particular Target is an anomaly and an insult to the corporate chain. Luckily at least, we have Amazon Prime.

Had an amazing cashier named Brian that was nice as could be. Found us a coupon on laundry soap that he went out of his way to apply!! NOT ONLY THAT but Brian asked if we checked out a local trail head up Irish Hills which, as it turns out, is PRETTY AF.

Areas of the store looked trashed and they had just opened an hour earlier. Absolutly every table in the Starbucks was dirty. Was there for over an hour and no cleaning was done. Several flies flying around tables landing on food, not pleasant.

This Target is Always busy and today was no exception. When we got in line it was very long but the young man who was directing traffic did an excellent job, moving that line to keep us all social distanced. We were checked out on less than 5 minutes.

The store was clean and quiet. I only saw one employee without a face mask, and 90% of shoppers were also wearing a face mask. An employee wiped down carts and had them ready for shoppers to grab and go. Most of what was on my list was well stocked; there was only a couple of things I was unable to get. Overall I was exceptionally pleased and I will definitely shop here again.

I ordered a product that was in stock in San Luis Obispo January 4th. I dont like to always shop from Amazon even though they fulfill their promises. It needed to travel 25 miles south to Santa Maria. They said 3 days. 10 days later it is coming (hopefully) from Oregon. Target cannot compete with Amazon if they cant do a badic transaction.

Review №37

Dont bother with wasting your money here. They will not do any returns for any reason. Was told to bring item back in after the 16th. We did got told sorry we cant help you. Honor your product. Its not like other reputable businesses that are excluding returns on items that some people maybe be hoarding. Things can be broken, defective are just lemons. Yous get to be an essential business and therefore stay open and make tons of money while others cant.

The employee at the register was so sweet and helpful. He helped me at the customer service counter and at checkout. He saw me with my fussy infant in a carrier and asked if I ever picked up my complimentary gift for registering baby at target. Then as I was waiting in line to purchase my items he came over to a new register to check me out faster so I could attend to my fussy child sooner. Thank you so much!

Review №39

Needs better variety. Today I only found 2 of 5 items leaving me to go to different store/s to finish shopping. I find this happening more often than not these days, so I may choose to shop elsewhere first in the future. Sorry.

Review №40

I used to buy most of my groceries here simply because they had more affordable prices for their store brand and organic store brand foods, but stopped because the shelves are usually bare of product and I would usually end up not having half the things that I need. As somebody who used to work here, I know that that it can be challenging to stock shelves while constantly being called up for back up at the registers so management should do something about either having more cashiers or more people on the floor to stock shelves. Not to mention there’s new people every time I come in here and very few people that I know from when I used to work here. I still love Target and always end up buying more than I originally intended on, but just keep your shelves stocked.

Nice, clean store. Friendly people. I would probably shop there more if it were closer primarily for the grocery options as they seem to have some good deals. The red color scheme is hard on my eyes though and I cant stay long. The whole restroom/changing room policy thing awhile back was a big turn off too.

They spend a lot of work routing people but still don’t enforce mask rule. Two people not wearing mask at all and couple more not wearing correctly.

Do not come here during college move in week. It is very crowded and messy. Otherwise this target is great. They have plenty of essentials but pack quality produce in the grocery department. The aisles are wide so its easy to navigate the store. Good work team target

Review №53

Matter of perception, I think the atmosphere seriously sucks. Centrally located, in a high traffic area, nothing is going to change. Part of this is the Culture in general. 20 years as a Target shelf stocker? You have got to be kidding me? Because of its convenient location I spend a steady decent amount of money in the place, this phone came from there. In back is the recycling bin, all the dumpster divers congregate, live in the bushes nearby. What is the deal with what appears to be intentionally obstructing people? I have had it happen several times, one of their employees no less, get the hell out of my face. Certain groups attempt to commandeer the Starbucks as theyre personal lounge, Im not your guest! Makes the case for online shopping.

Review №54

Pretty good Target all around! Had to make a return though from an online order and the product was not in their system and took awhile. The furniture item arrive broken so online orders need better packaging so orders arrive safely. Better to shop in store at target. Love all the home decor section its the best.

Review №55

Wow! Can a store be any more ridiculous blocking off aisles and putting arrows on the floor. This place is just awful.

Ma
Review №56

It seems as though recent changes to Target have affected targets nationwide. Before these changes, shelves seemed stocked and behind the scenes operations were in fact behind the scenes. Now it looks like every day target is undergoing a plano change or a re-stock. Its extremely upsetting to be blocked in by an unattended u-boat full of product or having to navigate down an aisle that needs a little TLC because all the product was left of the floor by previous guests. Target stores in general feel like North Korea where the front of the store is visually appealing but the aisles that we frequent or need are scarce and at times completely non-existent.

Je
Review №57

This store gets 5 stars because of the abundance of electric car charging spots in the parking lot, the cleanliness inside, and the helpful staff. Checkout lines are never long, the restrooms are clean, and theres a Starbucks if you need a pick-me-up. I would like to see more organic food selections in the grocery section.Edit: theyve recently added self-checkout units! Makes quick trips even quicker if youre just stopping in to get a few things.

I recently purchased two $25 Facebook Gaming Cards and the store put a three hour hold on my purchase; as a result Facebook refused to honor my gift card, when I returned to Target to see about getting my cards activated they exchanged the cards but still insisted that a three hour hold was necessary. This is unacceptable! As a result, I have lost $50.

As Target stores go, this is a very nice one. However, Target has a policy of hiring very odd disaffected people covered with tattoos and big metal disks in their ears. Recently I saw a half half-man half woman with lipstick and crazy hair working in the front at the check stand. Target also has there bathrooms open for men and women depending on how you feel that day you can use any bathroom you like. I feel that companies like Target are encouraging our society to devolve.

Weve had our fair share if not very helpful customer service here. But today we were helped by Chase. He was very kind and helped us quickly and found exactly what we were looking for. Even joked with us a little which is always nice to see an employee actually reassemble a human. We were Funko Pop hunting for our personal collection and really appreciate him saying he will only allow one per person for the exclusives. Target doesnt handle these releases well but at least one employee is doing his best to make it better!

A newer, large and spacious Target. Watch out for college kids that forget theyre off campus. They always seem to have the best deal on the giant Iams dog food we used to buy. Its located right across from Costco so we can get all of our bulk items then head conveniently over to Target to check off the things on our grocery list that we dont need in multiples of 24.

Had to seek out 3 associates to find an item, one person didnt actually work for Target (vendor?), The next guy put this head down when he saw me coming then suggested I try using the target app to find something, the last person at least indicated the item was on a clearance shelf (but not sure where). Not a single person offered to help me. Days of can I help you find something?, Targets mantra, are no more. The cashier never made eye contact with me and never asked if I was able to find what I was looking for. Just terrible customer service all around, I was very disappointed.

Review №86

If you sign up for a credit (red) card while in line, the employees at the register are trained to lie to you about the terms of the card if you ask clarifying questions. The card required my permission for telemarketers to call me unsolicited. When I asked the employee at the register what that meant she said oh, dont worry, they wont call you. I have since been bombarded by telemarketing calls, even after I discontinued my red card. The employees get a commission if they get you to sign up so they are lying to you for personal gain.

The Target Tech guy was beyond incompetent. What should have taken 20 minutes wound up taking over an hour. Not only did he expect us to sign the Verizon user agreement without viewing it, but he would never confirm our plan or the total monthly price. Ill be shocked if we ever get our $300 bill credit. When we logged into Verizons portal we discovered that he had even signed us up for the wrong plan. What a nightmare to fix it. Dont get me started on this guys lack of customer service skills. One good thing about the temporary staff being gone, they cant steal anything anymore Thats not a professional thing to say, out of the blue, to a customer.

I shop Target every Tuesday for groceries. I like the store brands, prices and cartwheel. However, I am becoming increasingly dissatisfied due to empty shelfs, particularly for items I routinely buy. I am buying more and more at Trader Joe’s because I cannot count on the items being in stock at Target. Furthermore, my shopping experience is soured when I cannot get the item(s) I came in for.
