Cute vintage store off Telegraph in Berkely. Had costumes right when you walked in since Halloween is a few days away. Reasonable priced clothing with lots of hat accessories. 2 levels, daughter got a kick that she counted 3 staircases. Street parking with a parking garage close by.

The first thing I'll say is that this place is definitely a vibe. It's worth checking out if you're into Thrifting and looking for treasures. It's two floors of fun old pieces. The workers are usually nice enough. The place is dingy, but has charm. it's been here for a long time and I'm glad it made it through the pandemic.

The outside is very welcoming and I saw pictures online, but when I walked in all I saw was grubby carpets and grandma clothes. This might be a new style that i'm unaware of but i'm pretty sure they only collect polygamist dresses. Thats all for my review today see you next time on the Karen show.

The Lighting needs an update but the staff were hip and helpful. We bought what we thought was a black leather coat for a great price but it was blue! They let us trade it out for a black one. We had to pay $20 more dollars for the black one but it's black, and lined and nicer, so we scored! Thanks!

Great place for used clothing. They don't just sell anything but instead are selective for quality and condition. Have four or five shirts from there and they are among my favorites. Prices are very. reasonable. Staff is nice.

I have been shopping here since I was 13 & mars never fails me. Alls find stuff. Great selection of vintage & sizes. Prices range anywhere between $5-$32. Few items are more expensive then that. Customer service is great, I have asked for deals in the past on items that had small damage and I was given a discount. Compared to Anastasia which is down the street mars is paradise for all vintage/thrift shoppers ;3 GO DOWN AND GET U A FLANNEl!!!!

As a self-proclaimed fashion enthusiast, it's not always easy to find stores that meet my expectations in terms of style, quality, and customer service. But my recent shopping experience at Mars Mercantile in Berkeley, California, was nothing short of exceptional and warrants an easy five-star rating! Upon entering the shop, I was greeted by Cameron and Eli, two extremely kind and knowledgeable employees. They pointed me in the right direction, I was immediately impressed by their collection - a fine blend of vintage and modern aesthetics, with a certain charm that could only belong to a boutique with the genuine heart of Berkeley. The variety of high-quality pieces had me spoilt for choice, but it was a beautiful leather coat that caught my eye. I was looking for something exceptional for a date night in San Francisco, and this coat was just the ticket. A little edgy, undeniably stylish, and the quality of the leather was exceptional. But what really set Mars Mercantile apart was the fantastic customer service. The staff were not just knowledgeable about their products, but also attentive, helping me select the perfect coat for the occasion, and were very welcoming. And the true test of a great shopping experience? The reaction of the person you're dressing up for. Safe to say, my partner absolutely loved the coat. His eyes lit up the moment he saw it, and he couldn't stop praising the quality and style throughout the evening. So, whether you're someone who takes fashion seriously, or just someone looking for a unique piece to add to your collection, I highly recommend Mars Mercantile. They truly bring together the best aspects of shopping - an extensive, high-quality range, and top-notch customer service in a welcoming and accepting environment. The fact that my partner and I, as a gay couple, felt completely comfortable and accepted only enhanced our shopping experience. Thank you, Mars Mercantile, for being a shining star in the fashion world. Your commitment to customer satisfaction is a testament to why I'll be returning and recommending your shop to all my friends!

Visited Mars Mercantile for some much needed thrifting but also to find a cool outfit for Coachella. Upon entering the store, you'll find that it's two levels and a bit dimly lit. The atmosphere definitely leans more into what you'd expect from a thrift store. The selection of items is wide ranging and covers all levels of retail apparel and accessories so it's very thorough. I found the coolest silk shirt sleeve button down which I bought. One thing I did notice was that the prices were pretty reasonable, which I appreciated. The staff was friendly when I checked out but I do wish they were a bit more attentive overall.

Rudest workers I've ever encountered in my life. Belittling, unhelpful. Reading back on the other reviews I see rude employees are a norm here. Not worth shopping here.

Terrible experience. Bad lighting. Smelly. Clothes in poor quality. They don't accept returns without telling you prior to purchase and even if the clothes were returned couple of days later intact, still in packaging. I really recommend for anyone who hoping to find vintage clothing or wants to try new clothing style to steer away from this shop. On the other hand, if you want something cheap and you don't mind the smell and bad lighting. It might ne worth taking a look at and don't buy anything when you are not 1000% sure you it fits you and you want it. EDIT: And not that great customer service!
