Worst customer service ever. Stood there for several minutes waiting to ask a question nobody ever said a word to me the entire time I was there even while standing at the counter clearly waiting

I have always loved coming here. They are now only allowing a few people into the store at a time, which is reasonable. When you pay you leave the store to a small kiosk like thing for their store to pay now so youre not taking that much space when waiting in line to buy your things.

Trouble at check out both times I was there but other than that it was nice.

Not the same Hottopic as years ago. It keeps evolving everytime I go in! 😅 The cool and weird thing is the register is outside the store

Friendly service.

Worth the wait in line. They had a great selection and offered safe shopping.

Expensive as always, card register was down.

Not so hot for us.

Fun play on a darker style with lots of extras like body jewelry/art and toys. Playful outfits for special occasions and parties, that obscure band t-shirt and a disco ball with lasers or light effects or who knows what you will find? Totally worth checking out.

My Daughter buys a lot there. I get a t shirt once in a while.Good deals. Customer service could be a little better. They are fine with young people, but, a little cold to older people.

Connie, Stephanie and everyone else at this location makes sure that you leave a happy customer! These managers are professional as they come, and if I was a district manager I would feel beyond fortunate to have this staff running Carlsbad! Once again, they have exceeded all expectations and deserve all the praise in the world!

I love this little store! Lots of great Band t-shirts, novelty clothes, toys, gags and who knows what cool things you will find as you look at laser light show effects or 3 sizes of disco balls, body jewelry and clothes you most likely always wanted to wear but never dared to wear.

I love going here. I love looking around and getting cool stuff. I liked looking at all the bobble heads and stanger things. 👍

Very good staff. Helpful and knowledgeable about their products and happy to check the back room for additional sizes and products. Great range of nerdy products too.

Not consistent in polite workers or offering help. Price tags missing on clearance and they will find full price of product that is not the exact match. They treat my 14 yr old special needs kid like he is going to steal or my super polite 12yr old straight A daughter the same. They stay with me the whole time so I witness the workers giving dirty looks.

I stopped here with my son. We havnt been here in quite some time. I think it went from Goth- Punk to Super Hero. Where are all the cool band shirts?

Love to find unique accessories and gifts here! Hope they being back the dressy goth fashion! Overall love the customer service and merch

Great place. Always find something for someone and the store workers are nice.

One of my favorite stores.

Love hot topic. I have loved this store for over 20 years

Love this place. I get most of my band tees from here. 🤙🏽

Amazing place for anyone who loves almost any fandom out there such as Harry Potter, star wars, supernatural, etc...

Workers were so nice and helped us with everything, store was super clean!

I love the place but it gets crowded. Place needs to get remodeled the store needs more room.

Everything in this store is so different than other stores, and they have great stuff; from clothes to Funko Pops, theres so much!

I’m only putting 5 because I hear that it’s good but if anyone has been here is it actually really good?

Staff is very friendly and helpful.

My daughter and I love Hot Topic. Been going here for years!

The staff is friendly and helpful. The buttons and the patches are amazing.

Love this place just cant afford what they carry

Good selection, kids seem to like it. Prices are a little high but they are in a mall

This is a great place to get unusual gifts

The girl with large gauges and green hair was very rude. It felt like a store run by bossy children. The prices were wrong on everything and they tried to sell me on sales that did not exist. They have tons of Harry Potter stuff at Target, go there instead and save a headache.

Unique items. We get funko pops here

Amazing store for anime lovers and DC and Marvel items

Same as any other. The staff said they couldnt print separate gift receipts for each item in my purchase which meant I couldnt get the discount and a gift receipt.

This is the best hot topic Ive been too!!! The staff if very friendly and very helpful.

Fun, fun. fun shopping here.

Daughter loves this place

I got help and found a gift for my friend. 7/10 too much water

Ok place. Friendly staff. My only gripes are that the isles are way too narrow, and a lot of things arent priced.

A variety of clothing from Rock bands to anime to Funko figures to body piercing items.

Workers are friendly and the products are great.

Fun variety of novelty items.

They have the cutest stuff for Halloween and girls purses that have different themes like Harry Potter, Beetle Juice, Nightmare before Christmas.

A great store if youre a teenager.

Everyone is so nice and helpful!!!!

Great variety of products.

Good place nice music nice people

Always fun to visit...

Had a bogo $5 on T-shirts!

The coolest place

The cashier that took my order did not offer me the promotions that they were having which I had to get a free item of what I bought and I had to go back to get my free item, make sure you look at the promotions on front of the store

Sweet styles!

Very helpful staff

Good selection and prices but store is a bit cramped.

Great staff and selection

Nice stuff to buy

Cashier was amazing!

Staff are very nice

What else can I say?
