The Forum Carlsbad

Popped into YETI and found SOOOO much goodness. Left with a 45 cooler (classic 🤙🏻) and a couple different hats.
Vuori, public restrooms, Lululemon, and great food options too.

Visited for the first time as my wife wanted to shop for clothes. With all her favorite stores (Talbots, Chicos, Loft, Johnny Was, and Anthropologie, she was on cloud 9. Plus, it's a pretty place to walk around or sit by the Koi pond. And we had a great lunch at Casa de Bandini. We will return.

Parking is brutal. Not nearly enough spots for the number of establishments. Rent must be sky high also, based on the prices of the stores and restaurants.

But, lots of fun stores in decent places to eat.

Upscale Shopping mall With Apple Store, Dining restaurants, ice-cream shops and several clothing stores like the popular Lululemon and Alo. However, the stores here are not so big while lacking in some more affordable brands. There are many palm trees with lights decorated, offering a fancy view at night. The rest area is well designed as there would be playing areas for both children and adults. Adults can sit on the grass under the umbrella while playing table tennis. There are too much The children could enjoy the fun of climbing. One thing to mention is that the whole plaza has only two women's restrooms and one men's restroom. They are all far away from the central area. Must take em elevator/stair to reach the second floor of the business building for restroom, that's somehow incomprehensible.
