I'm not certain what happened to this place I don't believe it should be located in the heart of Alameda as it doesn't compliment Alameda. I was raised in Alameda and take pride for that. Every single person INCLUDING the owner need a personality check! Rude and looks at people as if we are asking for a handout. VERY SAD that this ONCE was a very nice place to bring in clothes that are delicately used and purchase as well. For the last few years now each time I refer or even swing by I can't express anymore than unfortunately do a YELP Review - As a owner you should speak to your staff and take courses of how to treat people ESPECIALLY customers! WORD of mouth is the #1 referral and I always refer to you all there but that will now stop. REMINDER that CUSTOMER SERVICE GOES A LONG WAY BUT FIRST STARTS AT THE TOP! Good luck

Great for getting clothes for kids - especially shoes and things that tend to be expensive but not worn much (like snow gear, rain gear, winter jackets, etc.). I also like Togo and look for footy pajamas (expensive at store, much cheaper here). I like the folks who work there - they are always really sweet to my daughter when we go in and they are friendly! I bring in clothes to sell sometimes and they don't always buy something, but I don't take it personally. It is really just great to know that I can sell some things and get a little credit for it! I would anyways give the clothes away otherwise.

My daughter has been shopping for her clothes here since she was three. She is almost 12 now and still loves Lauren's Closet. We rarely come to Park Street without at least a quick look to see what is new. The staff is super helpful and provide great customer service. When we got home, my daughter found a flaw on one of her "new" (pre owned) items, and the staff was quick to offer an exchange - making us both super happy. The latest clothes at a fraction of their original price. If your daughter grows as fast as mine, this is the place for you. They also stock some new dance items such as tights and ballet slippers, which was a great find, after too many trips off the island to buy dance gear. Of course they are picky about the used clothing they buy, which can be disappointing if you are trying to sell your stuff. But you will find the best stuff here precisely because they are picky!

I've been coming here for several years now and have always had a great experience, both as a shopper and seller. The owner is kind and honest. My kids love this place too.

They have nice gift items for children, especially girls. They do a nice job with the gift wrapping. I have not used their consignment services yet.
