Costco

The parking adventure here would make the highest level zen master go mad, but otherwise it's actually fun to shop inside.

The busiest Costco in the USA I've been told, and I don't doubt it. That said, it is clean , orderly, and well stocked nonetheless. One of the best wine selections of any Costco I have ever seen.

This Costco parking lot (like most) is a challenge to negotiate on weekends. HOWEVER, in spite of thousands of daily customers, the staff here is awesome and very service oriented.

Not in Santa Monica, but near enough to include on a Santa Monica list. Surprising vegan-friendly. Great prices on nuts , produce, non-dairy milks , snacks , paper goods, rice , beans, cereal, and more.

This is one of my favorite stores. Selections are well presented. Always finding great deals.

This is a very good hot link sausage . Highly recommended in my book .

If u decide to come on a weekday evening instead of a Saturday or Sunday afternoon you've made the right choice!

Late and early is the best time. Before the holidays, forget about it. Plan on spending 30 minutes waiting.

If you unfortunately miss the samples window, the food court is still a perfect option.

Call ahead to check stock. If not in stock and you leave your prescription there, keep calling to bug them because they don't call to let you know it's ready to be picked up.

Make a quick left when you enter...avoid the main crowded aisles and make your way around the perimeter. This is a fast lane- avoid if you plan to saunter along!

I like their croissant and the raisin cookies from the bakery ????????????

Very busy but well stocked and good customer service.

Guess who's here! You're right but to your surprise, we're in a 12 pack only at Costco! Look for us in the frozen section.

Best place to get quinoa . Pick up a 4 lb bag of Bob's Red Mill for cheap and give these Toasted Quinoa Shortbread Cookies a try. Get the recipe on kitchenkonfidence.com!

Must haves: Lattice Apple Pie & whole roasted chicken

the computer dept Richard, on venice blvd, best advise, very versed in computers adn state of art . got me a couple grewat I7 core computers> A1

Lunch time, before Thanksgiving, what was I thinking? Parking lot was out of control. Once inside, only crazy around the food kiosks, typical. I would have been in and out except for parking .

Has really best selection of all the Costco's I go to. No wonder they are so busy! Try going weekdays, Mon-Thurs. And if you have to go Fri-Sun earlier is best.

Costco optical is the best deal in town . Picking up my new glasses that cost about $137 for frames and lenses

This place is crazy busy. Sometimes it is not worth coming here because of the poor traffic infrastructure. Late and early are best times

The Costco Pharmacy has the best prices and you don't need to be a member to use their Pharmacy .

Best Costco Ever ! Parking 's not too insane! Soda / hotdog / pizza slice combos!

Craving for meatless general tso's chick'n? Look for gardein meatless crispy chick'n in the frozen aisle. Better than Chinese take out !

Goodness this place is crowded . You wait in line to park ,get in, to go down the isles, to check out, and to get out... Geez!!

You can buy a surfboard at this Costco...because Venice

Tax here 10% find another branch if you can

This is the largest Costco in the USA. ????

Must get the hand dipped ice cream bar with roasted almonds !!!

I officially hate this Costco. Always packed. Takes eight times longer to get anything done here. Sticking to the South Bay and Valley location

Killer BBQ brisket w/cole slaw on special buns at cafe .

The parking lot is horrendous especially trying to navigate around the line of cars at the In-n-Out. It is ALWAYS crowded ! I'll drive all the way to the Hawthorne Costco to avoid it if I can.

Low key , laid back time to make a quick trip to Costco is on Friday night.

Good kosher selection (Meal Mart) and round Challah and Honeycake (Renaissance Bakery ) for Rosh Hashana.

Always crowded but worth it if you go on a weekday.

Jose's coffee is awesome! They have all flavors here!

Dinner ! It's been too long since I've had this! Lol

People... Plz be move ur carts to the side when u stop and sample.. Instead of leaving them in the middle of the aisle smh

Photo center is horrific. If you're having prints made make sure you have proof that you own the negatives. It's CA law but Costco does very little to educate the customer. Use someone else.

The parking was really bad today. We had to park on a residential street!

Passport pictures service is best.

Prob here is they don't always have the stock I need.

Shopping here close to closing time is a breeze on weekdays.

Absolutely the worst parking lot . Grab the first spot available if coming on the weekends.

Grab a hot dog and a diet coke for $1.50. Then treat yourself to a fresh hot churro for only a buck extra!

To do: pick up wine , invent app for merchandise return

Breeze thru here after 5:30, Tuesday thru Thursday.

Avoid this place at all cost during the weekends! Parking and drivers alike are crazy! Best time to go are weeknights after 7pm.

Headed to the beach and forgot your board?

Cheap gas. But that line , tho.
