Meowmeowz!

Amazing atmosphere and great finds! Veronika was a doll! Will definitely come by when I’m in the area!

No. This is not a fake profile. This shop will sell you old, faded and fake inventory for a ridiculous price. $ 80 Ramones tee with a Wal-​Mart tag. Haha. Shopper beware! ! !

I had a great time at MeowMeowz last night! I thought this was a great little shop that was able to host many punk/​metal bands in its tiny space! They have a great sound system and really pulled in a crowd!
The store is awesomely decorated with 80s punk rock items from all over! I was so stoked to be able to find a 1950s vintage Swedish military coat for a great price! Veronica was awesome and friendly. She treats her costumers like friends!
Great little store and definitely coming back!

Meowmeowz is awesome! A cool vintage shop geared towards punk/​rockabilly aficionados, with a nice selection of old records, clothes, shoes and accessories. I found out about this place by Unilocaling «Manic Panic» in the area. Since then, I have returned several times because the owner Veronika is such a sweet gal and it’s her personality and charisma alone that keeps me returning.
There is also a small stage in the back. One can apparently rent out the space for jamming or performing. The ceiling is also plastered with posters of Robert Smith and The Cure. Yay!
So happy to have discovered this local gem in the Pasadena area.

Cool vintage shop with hidden gems. It’s especially great if you’re looking for music related tees and punk-​y/​rock n’ roll type clothes and accessories.
They also have old records and their prices are reasonable for most items. Be sure to check in for 10% off.

Love Veronika! I stop by here every couple of weeks and snag a dress or two.

Amazing! Great selection of crazy band tees, vintage jackets and blouses, and other misc punk staples. Some records in the back. Plenty of stickers, patches, posters, and accessories. I absolutely loved it, and Veronika was super helpful and sweet as pie. Will definitely be returning before I go home! Lots of creepers too!

Got a killer deicide shirt from here! Staff is friendly! Prices are s little high for some tees

Ok, I admit it. I wasn’t really intending to go into this place, but I’ve driven by it many times over the years and it intrigued me. I go to the Zephyr Café from time to time for coffee, but never got up the gumption to go in. A couple nights ago after spending sometime on a new skateboard design at Zephyr, I noticed this shiny disco ball bouncing lights my ways and thought it would make a nice picture. The place looked open, but no one was inside. So being an unrepentant street photographer, I went over to take a pic of the disco ball. While I’m taking this picture I hear this voice saying something about I should wait, I’m almost there… we’re really open or something. I wasn’t paying attention because I didn’t think the person behind me was talking to me. Then this woman with a look of concern I might be a soon to be lost customer comes up to the door and starts unlocking it. She said sorry it was locked and invited me in with a very nice smile if I do say so myself.
Sometimes you come across people who are just throw out friendly like a disco ball throws out shiny beams of light. Veronika, the owner as I discovered later, is one of those people. I’m one of those people who kind of wanders and likes to find myself in random conversation with interesting and nice people. This was one of those situations. I decided to go in since the walls were covered with my childhood and you never know what you’ll find. She was working late and while I know she had stuff she had to do, she was open to conversation and was even polite when I got into a longer than I realized story about X. (I do this often and sometimes don’t realize how long I’ve been blathering, but I’m pretty good at seeing the signs in people facial expressions, but still I blather… odd…)
It’s funny, when I walked in I told her I probably wasn’t going to buy anything, so… but she said, no problem go ahead and explore, which was nice. I don’t know why I said I wasn’t going to buy something, it was kind of rude, but I gotta give her props for being polite and friendly in the face of my little rudenesses.
The selection of stuff is awesome. Nice clothing, buttons galore and a small, but very nice vinyl collection. I ended buying a copy of Wilma Flinstone tells the story of Bambi in story and song. I would have bought more. I was tempted to buy the fantastic brass spiky bra that has this awesome patina, but I really have no use for a bra, so I resisted.
So here’s the bottom line, if you are looking for punk or 80s music, clothes or swag go to MeowMoewz! If you want to support a local business, go to MeowMoewz!
Finally, I said it to her when I was there and I’ll say it again, it’s no small achievement for a small business to survive one year, much less four years… and on Colorado Blvd. That kind of spirit and will is something I gladly support.
Growing up Pasadena used to have a lot of little cool independent places from Book Village, the Rialto and the secret espresso bar in the alley off Raymond and Colorado. Now most of that color has been lost to the corporate gentrification.
The good news is many of those places and certainly that spirit survives in East Pasadena, which is home to MeowMeowz, PooBahs and the DooDah. So if you are looking for some food rock stylings, check this place out.

This is a cool little spot hidden under a couple of big trees on Colorado blvd. Easy to miss if one doesn’t drive slow. There is parking in the neighborhood or in the plaza up the street. Love the cool selection of punk, ska, rock and alternative. But most of all I like the rare and old Skool high energy disco. The prices are fair and the owners are really down to earth. They carry posters, CDs, jewelry and other really cool Knick knacks. A must if you are in Pasadena

I LOVE MEOWMEOWZ! Veronika & Sal are always awesome & chill.
They have the best stuff always so unique.
I even got to see my friend’s band play a gig there!
I love independant small buisnesses! And Meowmeowz is definetly one of my favorites.
I’d always suggest this place to anyone looking for rad stuff

I had to update my review since my first experience shouldn’t really reflect on this business. It was a Huge misunderstanding. I recently went back and bought a vintage sweater I gifted to a friend, and three coats (two of them vintage). I was So happy with my purchases and the owner was gracious enough to explain and apologize for the previous mishap (she even offered a discount, which I had to decline). I even went back a few more times with friends that wanted to check the place out. I really do love this little shop, and happy to support local small business.

AMAZING! The music, the clothes, the staff. I love it all. I recently moved from Orange County and was missing all the amazing little thrift stores and I was beyond excited to see their collection of vintage clothing as well as tuk and demonia creepers, doc Martins, AND even the two pairs of demonia stacks that they had. So going here when I have more money to spend.

Crazy little shop that caught my eye from outside it. a definite must see with all kinds of finds to check out, in just about every corner of the store

I love shops like this! A woman owns it and her boyfriend works there with her. They have a plethora (my daughter always makes me happy when she uses words like this in her homework) of really cool items and a fun atmosphere in which to browse them.
We went in there for a band t-​shirt that the aforementioned daughter needed for her choir cabaret. She opted for Pink Floyd (our daughters are well versed in classic rock). While there we checked out all the t-​shirts, the other throwback hippie attire (a sweet youth why have you abandoned me), awesome buttons and bumper stickers, and other sundry delights.
We chatted with the owner and her boyfriend, trading war stories about our rock and roll youth. She told us that Keith Moon’s daughter and granddaughters are shop regulars — I told her about the time I almost got to have lunch with Roger Daltrey and Pete Townsend when I was in a production of Tommy (not long after it came out — thanks to time travel and being the youngest kid in the production) and lamented that the whole thing was cancelled and the issues to be discussed were handled through the mail (way less fun).
All in all it was a great trip down memory lane. The shop has loads of cool stuff — some new, some consigned. The customer service is top notch and I’d go back again in a heartbeat.

Nice people own this place and I believe in supporting local business like @MEOWMEOWZrocks
Cool stuff and one of my favorite signs I have ever seen on a store window (uploaded).
Browsing thru here is a great trip through my youth… much of it is cool again! Maybe I will be too someday… one can hope.

I absolutely love this store. It is the most perfectly quaint, hole-​in-​the-​wall, punk store with really flipping rad employees.
I can’t stress enough how charming Meow Meowz is, as well as the people that run it. Even coming upon this store was almost serendipitous. It just felt so meant to be.
I am not from the area at all, I had just moved to Santa Barbara from Florida less than a year ago and I rarely travel around. Luckily, I happened to stop for lunch at the same sushi bar as one of the employees’, a beautiful little blonde punk-​chick, that had coincidentally walked pass me just as I was commenting on the cute decals on her car. The energy she exerted as we spoke was just so awesome and welcoming that I had to go check out the store.
And I was not disappointed.
The store itself was a little hard to find, but it was worth the struggle.
Meow Meowz has the greatest assortment of alternative apparel at really reasonable prices. Not only do they have rad shoes and clothes, but they have sweet patches, band pins, piercings, jewelry, Vinyls, hats, and tons of fun random items for sale throughout the store, with the add on bonus of really helpful, outgoing, personable sales representatives.
I thoroughly enjoyed my visit and I plan on going back sometime in the very near future.
If you’re into punk/​alternative clothing I 100% recommend checking this place out.
~*‘*‘*~ Note to the owner: I recommend uploading a photo of the front of the store during the day time. (Even with GPS your store was a bit difficult to spot) ~*‘*‘*~

This is pretty cool for what it is. I was under the impression from the name (Rock Shop) and from glancing inside while driving by… that it was more… Rock/​Metal centered. I guess I should have read the reviews… cuz this is definitely a more punk shop. I’m not so much into that so I just kinda browsed around for a bit.
Their vinyl selection had like…2 metal albums. :(
It’s a super cute shop and I would love to be a customer… but there wasn’t much there for me. :)

Fantastic little rock shop, mostly focused on Punk fashions.
I was having a few doors down at Plate 38 and felt I had to check out this shop. Boy was I glad I did. I snagged a cool skull tie, and a few other items. They’ve got great punk shirts, even for infants! And a bunch of random accessories like spiked belts and stuff. Some of it has a real vintage feel. Definitely worth checking out.

I live a hop, skip, and a stones throw away from this place and I rarely get to visit. It’s an amazing little shop located right on Colorado Boulevard. I’ve been here a couple of times, and am so enticed by all the trinkets and fun gear!
I even purchased my lucky Misfits pens I use from here. Unfortunately, lost the pens, but gives me a great excuse to return again! :)
They have the BEST t-​shirt collection EVER. I’d hate to even compare it to Hot Topic, but MeowMeows collection is unmatched! I had to run out the store to keep myself from going in debt. I want EVERYTHING in here. Definitely a shop that’s more my speed.
