Hot Topic 1600 South Azusa Avenue, City of Industry, CA 91748

"Got some great stuff at end of the year sale. Buy 1 get 3 free! My son bought me a red & black sweater with skulls. Surprisingly very warm and great quality."

"This ain't the place it was 12 years ago. Less goth, less emo, more anime and black clothing. Spencers is better than hot topic in every way."

"Me and my lady went a couple of sundays ago just looking around and got the pleasure of meeting Liz, who embodies the attitude of Hot Topic way back when I was a teenager in the 20th century, and her image was nothing short of awesome. She showed us some buy 1, get 2 free shirts lines and I went totally retro. We'll definitely come back and even if there's nothing we get, at the least we get to say hi to Liz, who is one nice example of what's right in the world."

"Great selection of shirts and pops always draws me in. I typically will drive a little further to come to this location since the staff is amazing. From top to bottom they are always greeting customers with a smile and make you feel welcomed. I don't even make it a few feet without being asked if I need any help looking for something. I love when you get great customer service like that. They always remind me if I have a reward to use and take extra time to find a pop I'm looking for even if it just came in or is buried on their wall. I've had issues with returns and poor service at other locations but this one is definitely my all time favorite. They're active on IG and always answer their phone quickly."

"So to start off I'm sure by now we all know Hot Topic isn't what it use to be 20 years ago. Having that said there's no point of people coming here complaining about how it not what it use to be. They mostly have main stream band shirts. They don't carry Tripp, hell bunny, Sourpuss, lip service and all the other brands they use to. I believe the clothes they have now is their own brand, which is ok but not my style. I mostly come here for their funko pops and anime merch. Which they mostly carry popular anime merch. The staff here is really friendly and helpful. The store is rather small and there's alot space where I feel they could put more stuff up but maybe their making it spacious because of social distancing."
