Each time I go in, I have to try on a trenchy. I know I'm not going to buy and I tell the person helping me I can't get it today, but there's always tomorrow.....
You're not going to get a lot of $$ knocked off for men. Sometimes nothing for men is on sale. But they do have great sales for woman. Too good of sales really.
I enjoy the Burberry look and the Burberry feel. This is a very nice outlet store. -

I love the idea of a Burberry outlet, but it hasn't really panned out for me. I might have gotten a tie here once, but in general, the bags and coats are from past seasons and not the typical Buberry "classic" that I would want to spend my money on (cuz while the outlet stuff is a tad cheaper, still expensive for lil' ol' me).
Sometimes the store can get a little crowded and messy, but can you blame the gobs of people who love Burberry as much as I do?
All in all, I ALWAYS go in in hopeful anticipation. One day, I will find that perfect trench... -

I own one item with the trademark Burberry plaid, which was a gift. I own very little Burberry, in fact, but the pieces I do are from the Prorsum line, so there's no tartan to be seen, and I prefer it that way.
If I am to be rad in plaid, it's McQueen and Westwood. Or anything Paul Smith.
However, when you are thrown into an unexpected snow/sleet/storm in the desert with no warning and you've packed accordingly, this is not such a bad place to go to avoid a Donner Party kind of situation. Which, if you're based in the Bay Area has a haunting history to it; check your street names, institutions of higher learning and military science.
Aside: When you become a parent, or if you are one, answer all the questions your progeny pose to you, even if it makes you crazy. If you don't, it will make them certifiable - I Yelp before you as living proof.
I digress. Though that is a Truthful Tangent - file it away if you like.
Okay - Donner Party, inclement weather, oh, yeah:
I imagined the staff running through the store just as the weather turned, frantically removing Additional 25% and 50% discounts from the rain gear, wells, umbrellas, coats and all manner of warm layers before opening for business.
It did feel like a crummy rummage sale, (less two deeply discounted items I did purchase: one a gift; the other a Kermit the Frog Green wallet, as I tend to brutalize mine all to quickly.)
Raised in a family of 7, and raising a Cadet of my own, I've am familiar with infant, toddler and the behavior of children in general. On this visit, however the floors were slick with rain, the roof was leaking and a bunch of unattended kiddies (those of the Asian Persuasion in particular) ran shrieking through the store while both parents were deeply engrossed in pawing through merchandise.
Now: I'm not the kind of cranky, sleep-deprived, freezing kind of gal who would actually... coincidentally need to stretch my leg at the same moment a child of three or four let a spine-shattering scream upon running (again, coincidentally) behind me and hitting the floor.
That would be wrong.
But I thought about it. A lot.
A lot.
A lot.
Accidents like that happen all the time when negligent parents abandon their children to obsess over scarves, bags and trench coats. Statistically speaking, how could it not?
This time around, there were very large coats, tons of umbrellas and the Look At Me! Look at Me! I'm wearing Burberry coats, though I did spot some very nice deep berry hued jackets, that still have the unfortunate labeled lining but aren't so... obvious.
The other thing that I don't love is how crowded and jumbly lookie-loos leave things. The seasons are intermingled; the tie section may say "25% off select items - discount taken at the register" and I don't like vagueness in a retail setting.
I know - I'm neurotically picky and totally aware that it's an outlet situation... But I still wonder why they can't implement a "You Must Be THIS Tall to Enter" sign and have a stroller valet.
Tiger Mothers, this is not a good place to bring your toddlers who could *legitimately* slip, trip or fall - especially when it's raining. If your dude got rained out of his golf game or if the weather is perfect, work in shifts, please.
Thanks ever so much! -

I love burberry but this place has really outdated stuff. if they have any left of course.
the line is usually out the door, and i dont get what people are even buying half the time. The customers are very pushy almost hostile, i mean cmon people relax.
the people who work there are usually really nice and helpful. but they really need to start updating their stuff. -

Maybe I made the mistake of coming here during Memorial Day Weekend, but judging from the other reviews written about this establishment, my experience here was not uncommon. I've always loved the Burberry's distinctive tartan pattern, & have only recently felt mature enough to rock it. I came in, bonus-blazing, ready to spend!
Okay, I know it's part of the outlet & it's not going to be exactly like the Burberry in say, South Coast Plaza, but this was just unacceptable. All of the purses were piled on top of one another. Further inspection revealed so much damage, which I think is an obvious result of mishandling. Always depresses me to see otherwise beautiful pieces being treated like garbage :( -

I was extremely shocked to see the line just to get into Burberry. I think I may have come at a bad time because their purses and wallets looked outdated. There was not a lot to choose from either. There were six areas mainly for purses and wallets but they were all the same style. The store looked like a herd came in, looked through the bags, unorganized everything and left.
I did, however, like their clothing selection. The discount prices were not too shabby either. I love their winter clothing. One day, I will buy a trench coat! I should suggest they have a 60% off sale. Then, maybe the splurge on a seasonal item may be worth it. -

My place to stop by to get my Burberry plaid trimmed swimsuits! They're usually on sale in the summer for around $50-$100 for bikinis. Compared to the full price at the store between $250, its a total steal! They also offer their polos for a really reasonable price, ($59)

Can I just say? Alastair and Ben were super duper in helping me with my coat! They were patient, they matched colors for me, and they taught me how to tie up the belt!

This is a large location compared to some of the other outlet Burberry locations. Despite the size of the store, I was disappointed in the selection. The store was a mess, which was strange since it was not too crowded. I was looking for a purse, but they hardly had any. I walked around looking for other things, but really couldn't find any "deals." We ended up leaving with no purchases. Next time we want a Burberry deal, we will go to a different outlet.

I'm sad to skew the data collected from the few Yelpers, but this place is not just messy, it also lacks customer service. I've walked in multiple times and have come to some rationalization that I never expect to be asked for help. I see shoes lying on the floor and "expensive" 200-300$ shirts lying on the floor. Am I really looking for a bargain here? So I might save some money, but maybe I have to deal with the fact that possibly hundreds of people have run their hands over it and the likelihood that particular article of clothing may have been cleaning the floor earlier! For a higher end store, you would expect better customer service.

Good selection at this store. Cheaper prices, obviously. Since it's the outlet store, most of the styles are last season's. Don't expect to find current stuff here

My favorite store at Desert Hills! They have a ton of women's clothing, especially coats. I picked up a beautiful trench there today that was originally $800. I got it for more than half off! Although it's still expensive, it's a steal because Burberry knows their trenches and it's a classic, lifetime piece.
